In terms of non-academic aspects, I love playing board games with friends and family, traveling the world with my partner and reading books. I also love the smell of rain, the sight of sunsets by the ocean, the warmth of smiles that reach the eyes, moonlit skies, lanterns, fuchka, genuine laughter and a good cup of cha.
