About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To spread the good news of snail milk dairy products!

ABOUT ME

Leaving a blank would be most apt. Who/what am I indeed? Suppose that's why I want to travel and meet new people- to try to find out. I generally alternate between wild, hilarious, craziness and moody introspection. I think deeply but like to have fun too!

PHILOSOPHY

Not sure I have one... Well, I try to see the beauty and good in everything around me. I try not to judge other people, but instead learn from their opinions.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Travelling to a small farm in the Thar desert in the calm of the evening, on a camel cart. We'd endured the scorching Indian heat for days, but that evening it cooled earlier than usual. As the camels padded their way along the dusty road the sky melted into pinks, purples, greys, and clouds began to gather. The farmers explained to us the difficulties of growing crops in such an arrid land, and then it began to rain big, fat, warm drops, and wind lashed at the tent under which we were sheltering. Lightning streaked the sky with white and the air was rich with the scent of damp earth.
