I never wear ready made clothes,
I have all my clothes stitched according to my culture
I like them to be a bit loose so I am comfortable in them,
What with the hot tropical climate.
I am very particular about my food,
I rarely buy takeaways,
I try my best to cook what I like at home.
Going to restaurants my mind
acts weird,
It asks if the chef has washed his hand,
Is he smoking when handling the food,
Hope he does not wipe sweat with his hands,
So I go to restaurants that serve barbecues,
Or food that is piping hot.
My skin is very sensitive,
I don't have the luxury of wearing beautiful trendy foot wear,
Only simple open sandals for me.
I am not a fan of meat or fish,
So I make up by having lots of nuts.
I love icecreams and savoury snacks .
I lead a simple life,
Satisfied with what I have .
without any expectations.
