About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To travel the world, make new friends, have fun, and be happy!

ABOUT ME

We are Pooja and Darshan, we've been together for 12 years and have been married for 4 years. We are best friends and soulmates! We recently got a pup, Charlie Brown, who just turned 1 year old.

About Pooja- I'm a Genetic counselor and a baker. I studied at Johns Hopkins University, Baltimore, USA and returned to India in 2008. My love for baking resulted in the creation of my own cupcake delivery store in Mumbai. You should check it out! www.facebook.com/MyCupcakeCrush

About Darshan- I am a business school graduate from NMIMS University, Mumbai and worked in sales and marketing for 7 years before giving it all up to pursue my dream of being a music producer and composer. Check out my stuff at www.soundcloud.com/Bluesanova

About Charlie Brown- I am the cuddliest and happiest Shih Tzu pup and love playing, sleeping and drinking water! Also, I just turned 1!!!

We're a bunch of music loving, cupcake baking, tail wagging (well, just Charlie Brown!) folks who are easy going, friendly and happy to open our homes and hearts to you.

PHILOSOPHY

We believe in love, honesty and peace. We are respectful of differences in peoples' values and we expect the same from people we meet. To each his own.
