travel, sightseeing, making friends, learning new skills

I have traveled to other countries , which includes,San Diego,san Francisco,Mexico,Seattle WA, New Jersey,Dallas Texas,Montreal,and Toronto Canada, visiting friends and family and recently to Singapore and Malaysia on an International Rotary Convention as a passionate Rotarian and tourist.

Going to new places and admiring different landscapes , different cultures and learning new things is a great experience for me as i also share my  culture and tradition with others. I love fun and laughter as i believe it is food to the soul.

The best of it all is when i go places where i know nobody and at the end of it all, i come out with beautiful lasting memories and friendships which lasts a lifetime. No man is an island and i believe, i am because we are.
