About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Discover/Learn something original

ABOUT ME

I am a easy going person, who enjoys natural wonders and beauty. I also very much enjoy exploring man-made wonders. I am very easy to get along with and very open as well. It is easy to find out about me, just ask.

I speak a second language Malayalam, though not as fluently as I used to. I love to learn about new cultures and my friends are the international people I've met through school.

PHILOSOPHY

Always believe that your efforts will bring your dreams to fruition
