Traveling, Music and dancing.

Travelling helps me connect with new people, which helps to improve my interpersonal skills. Based on the geography we meet people from various races, regions. It helps to understand their background and connect with them. This acquired skill helps when we work with a distributed global team. Travelling makes me independent and build my confidence.

for me music and dancing increase positive and reduce negative mood, it helps me to relax and act as a post-event recovery.
