Reading, traveling, golf, cooking and watching movies.

Who is your icon?

My icon is my father. He has always told me to "open my eyes and open my heart".

There are occasions when people find comfort in white lies. But I beg to differ and prefer to remain silent, rather than lie.

Golf and other outdoor activities, garbage recycling and reducing food wastage are some steps that I practice to maintain a green lifestyle.
