A people's person who never entertains one thing in life -- larger than life EGO of people.
My hobbies are numerous and diverse. They range from being an avid reader to decorating home, loving cats, embroidery, painting, writing poems and letters to friends, endless thinking, collecting candles, music, trying various cuisines and reaching out to people.
I love cooking and devising ways to smash set patterns of cooking. I do not like over use of spices in the cooking and am dead against using readymade or canned ingredients.
Cooking is my favourite prescription for busting all the stress that I accumulate in the work place.
