Reading, Binge Watching, Travelling, Painting and Dancing
I really love travelling to hill stations during any long weekends. I generally prefer long car drives to hilly areas. Apart from this I love reading Fiction and Binge watch Sc-Fi thriller mysteries on various OTT platforms. Being a fitness lover- I indulge into dancing and burn out some extra calories. I do have a bit of Creative side in me- and hence I like doing oil paintings and other sort of DIYs at home.
