CURRENT MISSION

ABOUT ME

I just love travelling!!!
The most common thought in my head is to pack my bag and take off on my motorcycle.
I'm quite nomadic, always exploring nature and enjoying the surprises she throughs at me...

I've taken the most crazy and unconventional paths in life when u consider career and stuff.
I've studied a bit of everything like mechanical engineering, Dentistry, business management and now starting my own business in constuction material(Hoping to start production by November 08).Eventually planning to build a career around photography.
I feel its one lifetime and never scared to experiment and try out everything I like.

I love food and keep trying out different cuisines(especially Bangalore being a cosmopolitan with lots of restaurants for all kinds of cuisines).I like cooking and can cook a few Indian dishes.Music's a very important part of my life and tolerent to most kinds. Classic rock and Trance are my favorite. I go pubbing and clubbing atleast once a week. I've quit smoking and drink occasinally.

Motorcycling is my biggest passion and I've done quite a lot of it. Ridden around most parts of India Including the Himalayas & also been to Bhutan. But my favorite biking spots are in Karnataka my home state(I've travelled to some remote places in the western ghats through the tropical rain forests).
I'm a very outdoor person, trekking in the forests or taking a walk on the beach are my favorite things to do.
I've had a very good exposure to rural India(which is very different from the cities u see, both culturally and economically)cos my dad's from a remote village abot 250 Kms. from Bangalore.As a kid I used to spend my summer holidays there.

I have a farm near there now with lots of coconut trees and its nice to visit occationally(I go there a few times in a year).

I also love photography and done a basic course. I've taken some really nice pics when I was travelling in the Himalayas but with a compact digicam.Still learning to use a professional camera.Exploring the art of painting with the lights...

I've spent a lot of time traveling in India but haven't been out yet but its so diverse here in all aspects it feels quite diffent from place to place, One of the main reasons I travel is cos I can experience different cultures and meet interesting people.
About my city-Its trully amazing! Lovely food, lots of young people, city is full of life. Its also quite diverse with the old traditional city to a fully modern IT capital.

I know the city on the back of my hand.

It would be my pleasure to show u around, I really enjoy showing people around...

I can say I'm very friendly and get along with all kinds of people.My friends find me quite funny. I have lots of friends all over my city and I enjoy their company.We're like a very big family, always being there for each other...

We guys hangout at coffee shops or pubs almost every evening(but i'm a tea drinker).

I'm a nature lover, prefer walking a lot.

Like pets and I have a dog who's very friendly.

PHILOSOPHY

I live life to contribute to this planet to the fullest, which of course also includes people.
There's no better joy on this planet than contributing to another person's life in some way.
I completely believe in sharing love and happiness with man kind.
I'm a world citizen and humanity is my religion.
Planet earth's home.
Lets enjoy life at every moment.....
