About me

It all started with the song.. there is a little yellow mountain outside of Kathmandu.

Born in a small city, Farrukhabaad, India — brought up in the gorgeous Darjeeling Hills and Dooars Wildlife, Engineering from Chennai, First Job in Mumbai and thereafter have been a globetrotter.

I love travelling, hiking, finding new places, making new friends, dragging them out to BBQ whenever I can — into the wild.

Life is full of issues; all we can do is live every second of it... travel meet new people, learn their stories, pick the positives and trash the negatives. You never know when it all be over in a snap!

So do it in a way that your absence will be felt and you will be missed!!

Live life, be happy & Lets connect!
