ABOUT ME
A simple, friendly person from Kolkata (also called Calcutta) who loves his "City of Joy" (which was capital of British India and second largest city (after London) during the British period)..I want to be a global citizen..I'm quiet in nature but some people tell that I talk too much once the ice is broken! i neither drink nor smoke and I'm not a party goer..but I like to talk about my city and culture. I'm open to learn anything from you. So if you are interested about Kolkata and Bengali culture, I'll try my best to help you.
We are FULLY vaccinated.
PHILOSOPHY
