music, traveling, reading, Movies & Gardening

I love soul music, especially gospel genre. Love to travel mostly by road just to appreciate nature and beautiful cities in the world. Its refreshing and rejuvenating. Drama and romantic movies get my attention including novels and materials on politics.  I love flowers and love to be in a garden just to appreciate the natural colours.
