About Me

Enjoying the moment at most. I'm a computer geek with a business background. Easy going, open-minded, relaxed.

I like meeting people. Conversations without Judgements are inspiring and relaxing. According to a Harvard study, our cognitive abilities evolved to manage social relations. When you do it right, happy and peaceful life is waiting for you.

Currently, I live in a small flat and offer a Sofa for you. Timing-wise, mostly I am working at home, weekends are better to stay and spend time together, still we can check weekdays.
