Do you find the cultures of the world interesting? Do you often wonder what a “Spaniards” eats for breakfast? How does a French stay healthy with all that cake in front of her? What is different in Nordic countries that keeps them high on the Happiness index?
I find it very exciting and my wish is to design my life (mindfully) by creating a unique culture for ME and MY FAMILY.

You can tell that I am somewhat of a culture geek. My husband lovingly calls me a ‘Hyper Benevolent Cross-Sectional Cultural Warrior’. In 2022, I have decided to really get to the bottom of this frenzy of mine and research 12 cultures of the world. If you are someone who find this very interesting then hop on my culture train and ride 2022 with me.
But designing life is not limited to just cultures of the world, you will find articles on physical & mental health, relationships, economic travels, Type 1 Diabetes, life of an Indian abroad and much more.
