About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To bring Love and Arts

ABOUT ME
I love life's simplest joys like sunset, Flowers, walking on the sea-shore, local markets, small houses, winding roads.
I spend a lot of time reading, contemplating, observing acquainting myself with anything that can add meaning.
I think I'm a bit serious person and like things in my house to be where they are :)

PHILOSOPHY

Life is Gift, Live it at your Best and let others Live.

WHEN YOU'RE APPROACHING ME
