Introduction Even though I would like to fancy myself as an intellectual, the secret is that I am far from one. I feel, I experience and I express. A good mystery, a good laugh, a good sob story, a good lunch and bespectacled intellectuals are some of the things that boot my system. Life and the world are ever so fascinating. Wanderlust, my childhood friend leads, my senses, my mind and my words follow... in that order. The routes we follow? Largely off the beaten path. Music, travelling(more armchair than real), questions of existence and a humour in everyday life. All these excursions keep me and now my infant blog ticking. Epicurean pursuits, geopolitics, outdoor activities and chatting nineteen to dozen count in some of my less esoteric distractions. Blogging is my new toy which gives me way of sharing my journey with kindred souls that are hard to come by in my real world that is cluttered with IT Geeeks :-)
