Interests

My life has for sure been a roller-coaster. But, where's the fun without?

Being a future engineer and living abroad gets tough at times, but my hobbies always keep me company. Although I love technology, I love spending time away from it too. Coming from a beautiful land of cultures, traditions, colors and languages, dancing and traveling are my first loves. Hours seem like seconds to me when I am dancing. Traveling and exploring new places around the world has been my dream. A true Indian, I love my spices. Cooking and painting are an absolute stress-buster for me.

So here I am with some moments I captured from my travel diaries and daily life. Hope you enjoy :)

Durga Puja

The biggest Hindu festival in the city of joy-Kolkata. It celebrates the win of good over evil.

Princep Ghat

My favorite spot in my city by the holy river Ganges. Boating at sunset is ethereal.

Diwali

The festival of lights. The biggest Hindu festival in India to celebrate love and light.

Paneer

An all-time indian delicacy for vegetarians. The dish is versatile and based on cottage cheese.

Rajma with cashew cream

A light and easy meal enriched with proteins. It's an Indian comfort food based on lentils.

Night at the sea

My painting is dedicated to the sea which is so calm amidst it's chaos-fierce yet peaceful.

The sunrise

Every sunrise is special as it brings a new day and hope. My painting is dedicated to it.

Lord Krishna

Painting based on Hindu god Krishna. The painting was inspired by the mythological stories I grew up listening to and reading.

Lac Léman

The beautiful shades of blue in Geneva. It felt so refreshing being close to nature.

Grosse Cloche

A glimpse of the Bordeaux-standing proudly by the Garonne river filled with Gothic architecture will mesmerize you.

La Tour Eiffel

The best sunset captured in France on my first trip to Paris-the city of love, lights and fashion.

Toulouse

Captured at the "la ville rose" by the Garonne river. The city that gave me and taught me so much.

"When you find your WHY, you don't hit snooze no more! "

My dreams

My father is a teacher by profession and being around the inspiring teachers, I had great admiration for them. I always wanted to help someone grow and find their strengths. I graduated with my bachelor's in 2020 when covid-19 hit my country badly. My plans for higher studies were stalled and miraculously, I found a job as a teacher at Whitehat Junior, an online teaching platform. Teaching young minds was one of the best experiences I could have. However, there were plenty of students who couldn't afford the courses and I wanted to help them in my own way. I started giving classes to a few students and later joined an NGO in my city. I was happy to finally be able to contribute and help students who really wanted to study but could not due to their backgrounds. I continue to teach some old students on weekends and that keeps me going. I would someday want to open a free school providing quality education to children of financially weaker sections of society. I believe that education can change lives for generations and is the most important for development of any country.
