Love the way you talk. Believe it or not you sound very much like an ABCD Californian boy! Great content dude. Keep it up!!
The creative Indian!
Love sanjays take on dating and tech especially
Highly recommend this to any and all millennial who's going through just life
One of the ways I escape is podcasts. They help you get motivated and recharge your spirit.
Finding "Birdy num num" podcast was the best thing that happened to me a few months back.. Topics run the gamut of daily life, including career, dating, marriage and more things life and work.
