Singing, Listening to Music, Reading Books

I'm quite passionate about music from the child hood. I used to sing in my school prayers and competition, then I've learned carnatic music for 1 year. Music and signing is something a part of me and I'm looking forward to start my learning journey again.


Books are my friend, reading books for me is experiencing the whole story without even begin a part of it. Each Book Is An Experience.
