About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Use it or Loose it !!!!

ABOUT ME

I guess I am honest, Open Minded, curious, Sometimes Funny Person (sometimes :) ). I like to meet people, New Experiences:
I like to travel: as much as possible
Cooking : love to try new receipt but it always turn in new cooking experience... sometimes it is yummy often not so yummy...
I like Design & Architecture and looking for antiquities and rare object. still connecting to DIY or Cooking like old Cook Utensil/tools.
I practice lot of Sports and I think it is one of the most important thing for me. Actually it is Stand Up Paddle, Kayak and Tango (need to start again).

I am vegetarian. I don't mind people eating meat. Everybody do what he or she wants.
I do it for my personal Life style. That's why i love Indian vegetarian Food, so much ... Thali, Barotha, Dosai ...
I am Pisces (astrological) and it's probably one of the reason i love to be near or in the water, sea, Lake, Wave ... Just a pain in the ass that Berlin is so far from the sea :( i mean warm )

PHILOSOPHY

Use It or Loose it.
