Japan! It’s a unique blend of tradition and modernity. I can't wait to explore the bustling streets of Tokyo, the serene temples in Kyoto, and the beautiful landscapes of Mount Fuji. I'm looking forward to experiencing their rich cultural heritage, delicious cuisine, and everything else Japan has to offer.

A recent ad campaign I liked
Labour day ad by The Hindu.
It’s a brilliant take on Labour Day!
What a hard-hitting campaign; the message is bold, clear, and brutally honest. I truly believe that sometimes the loudest messages are the simplest ones.
