About

Hello there!

Let me tell you what this blog is all about ☝

My motive is simple

The Mission is to Motivate, Educate & Inspire people with my thoughts put into writing so that I could encourage open-minded thinking when it comes to "Sustainable Lifestyle Choices".

The bigger picture which is of course, "Making The World A Better Place"!
