ABOUT ME

Like everyone describes themselves.. i fit the Couch surfer sterotype! Social,out for a laugh... i love accents and hence get along with most people.

PHILOSOPHY

I believe in the live and let live philosophy! I couldnt go to bed at night if i think i have done something unfair to anyone. I live for honesty. Liars.. really piss me off!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once in a while my job lets me go to schools and speak to children about building a carrer and making a life..it feels great! there is nothing like have a couple of dozen eyes just stare at you in amazement when you tell about what you do at work and why they should take up jobs when they grow up.. (FYI pictures of flashy cars, mansions and great big swimming pools.. helps :))

Teach, Learn, Share

I can cook Indian food! i really can! if you love Indian food but dont know how to make it for yourself... talk to me! Ill teach you the tricks and the trades!
