Things I Love
Apart from love for learning new technologies and exploring new innovative ideas these are the things which define me as a person
Photography
I do not own a DSLR but I believe the art in a nice photo lies in the ability of the photographer to see the angle that is not visible to others. I do like to click photos of nature and monuments.
Travelling
New places have a story to tell and new people are the story tellers. I like to visit different cities and totally believe in being the Roman when in Rome. To be able to blend in with what the city has to offer and understand the culture excites me to continue travelling.
Cooking Food
I am a foodie and the best way to meet my own cravings is to cook. I like to experiment with the flavors and spices to make a new dish. Often I end up eating my dish myself but the love for food keeps me experimenting.
“I have not failed,
I have learnt 10,000 ways that wont work”
