I'm originally from Karachi, Pakistan but I've been living in Europe for over three years, first in Aarhus, Denmark and now in Hamburg, Germany. I live to read. I make sure to get in some reading during the day and feel utterly disoriented if I don't. My books are my most prized possessions. I also love writing. Nothing gets me more excited than good writing - be it prose, Instagram captions or even a well-written text message. I truly believe that the written word is the best thing to happen to humanity. I enjoy cooking, both alone and with people. Most days, I'm a vegetarian. Fitness has become a big part of my life and I work out 3 to 4 days a week. I'm a nature buff and hope to live in a house in the mountains some day, near a waterfall. I like having meaningful conversations with people and particularly enjoy talking about social and mental health issues, literature and politics. I tend to shy away from crowds and prefer meeting one on one. Will take cooking at home with friends, having beer/wine and playing board games over going to a bar or a club any day. Having said that, I don't mind a night out every once in a while.
