Being trained as a Planning Professional, looking into the details like geography, geology, demographics, economy and most importantly culture of a place is a thing of usual observation. I look forward to have discussion over these subjects about the places one has visited. Summing it up, exploring a place is about having a feel visually as well as in term of knowledge about the place. It had been a pleasure and honour of life to spend the study days in two of the most culturally celebrated cities in India- Ahmedabad and New Delhi. These experiences provided the most important exposure of diverse cultures from the width and breadth of Indian peninsular and substantial revelation of foreign nationals' cultures in the early days of my life. Apart from this, a native of a special piece of the land - Kutch fills all needed attributes of a guest friendly person since this part of the Earth is known for the soulful hospitality she cordial offers to a guest, historically! So, while writing 'about me', I must say, I am a Amical avec la connaissance - Friendly with Knowledge; in search of more knowledge of your experiences.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I had an opportunity to visit, explore and study in detail around 84 villages in Indian states of Dadra and Nagar Haveli (Union Territory) , Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu etc. under various projects of spatial planning. When I say 'in detail', I mean to have an experience of the rural India in such a way that the aroma of the agricultural fields and cozy homes of the Indian villages stays with you for a long long time! That's what I call- 'One Amazing thing I have done'!
