About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Explore and understand the diversity in the world, be among cultures, people, place or even species!

ABOUT ME

I'm a life long student and the world has been a great teacher. I seek to learn new things every day. That makes me adventurous, but at the same I'm very relaxed and lazy at times :)

I love to meet new people, experience new culture and try new cuisine :)

PHILOSOPHY

Live the life to the fullest.

Music, Movies, and Books

Like serious thought provoking movies like Matrix, fight club, Truman show; and also lot of comedy ones.

I used to enjoy fictional novels, but I think I've passed that stage. Now I read mostly non-fictional, philosophical, historical and science books like Zen and the art of motorcycle maintenance, selfish gene, fooled by randomness, outliers, guns, germs and steel, etc.

I'm not fan of any particular genre of music, but like anything that appeals to me, mostly from pop and soft rock.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungee jumping! It's really hard to push yourself to plausible death :)

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach a whole variety of tasty Indian cuisine! I'd love to learn some new cuisine, try to speak new language and learn about the history of the place in visit.
