About

A lazy explorer, I call myself. Thinking, planning and solving problems is core to my existence and vanity takes better of me when I claim to be very good at these. Venturing out into unknown territories in life and learning from those experiences slowly became a habit. An avid gamer, with a dash of nerdiness is what I had been, but recent interests revolve around sporting. "Chill maro, mitra" (Be cool, friend) are the three words I speak the most, and regrets in life is what I never want to have.
