About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To be knowledgable about the world and get as much information and experience from it and vice versa...

ABOUT ME

I try to enjoy life and experience as much as I can. I try my best to grab opportunities if it would enhance my life and the lives of others.
I'd like to think that I'm a citizen of the world...but sometimes society itself makes that difficult!
I'm openminded and fun and sometimes crazy. I wished I was more spontaneous...I'm something like a conservative rebel.

PHILOSOPHY

Well lots
The golden rule- treat others as you would like to be treated
I go a long way with common courtesy and consideration.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Sigh
I have done loads. From being on the Eiffel Tower, visiting Stonehenge, riding on the gondola in Venice, attending the World Cup in Germany, touching the waters of Loch Ness, cycling at home and admiring that we have summer all year round.
But I would never forget seeing Nine Inch Nails in concert!

Teach, Learn, Share

I want to know about customs, norms and cultures of different countries, food and fashion as well.
And I am also able to reciprocate and do the same.
Take them to new places, places to sight see, food to eat and other people to meet.
I'm very excited!
