I enjoy trying out new things in moderation...takes me a while to get out of my comfort zone but I promise to come out swinging.

My husband is probably my biggest fan and encourages me in practically everything... and showers me in gifts and surprises

Being a civil engineer does not really give me much free time but whatever time I get goes into a few of my favourite passtimes...

- I have been sketching since I was a kid and recently with a push from my hubby finally started painting

- I absolutely love baking and trying to cook new dishes. I do hope I don't end up poisoning my family in the process

- One of my dearest friends and I recently started a blog to showcase our amateur photography. Someday I hope to own a SLR

- I have recently taken a liking to all those adventure activities...possibly ever since I made it in one piece after our tandem bungee jump and scuba diving (esp. since I don't know how to swim!)
I have a skydive waiting to happen and many more

- Traveling was always a dream and I have been quite lucky to see some gorgeous places! Ohio, Florida, Georgia, Michigan, Texas, New York, New Jersey, Munnar in Kerala...can't wait to see more =)

- My husband and I have recently started learning zouq and I must say...it's quite funky and I'm enjoying it!

Here's to trying new things and living to tell the tale.
