Daily Walks
The immediate effect of too much partying is – you are never more convinced that you are growing old because you can’t remember what happened at all. The best thing that came out of the hedonistic escapades is I got an awesome toy giraffe. It dances and bounces its head to my command and I […]

A conversation with tingling coffee aroma, I try to grasp the fleeting moment when the flakes of joy are dancing through my senses. But like many things in life, they are not meant to be kept.
