Mamta Kalambe

This picture was taken on a trip to my native place Panchgani with my family. Since childhood I have always loved travelling. Exploring new places, trekking, hiking and horse riding is something that i always enjoyed doing. It was during childhood that I traveled with my family to many small villages in Maharashtra. I enjoyed eating varieties of food and meeting people. Small things like sleeping under the open sky and gazing at the stars, jumping into a pool of dirty water and splashing it on friends, gave more happiness than smart phones.....Life was better then!

They say 'Dance Like No one is watching' and that's what my motto of life is. No matter how good or bad you are, just dance your heart out. Dance for yourself. This picture was taken on the last day of my dance class. I hardly get to practice dancing now, but I make sure never to miss a chance to dance. So whether I am in college, outside with friends or at home I always take the time out and dance. And yes I also make people around me dance.

It is my dream to travel around the world. I would like to travel places and explore different cultures. Indulge in food. I think travelling teaches us a lot in life. It makes you push boundaries and move out of your comfort zone. I would also like to learn different dance forms in the world while travelling. I feel that it is only when you are travelling that you learn more about yourself. There are many people in the world who have more grave problems than we have. It is only when you meet such people and get to know them you stop cribbing about your problems.

Mamtu,
I like your 2nd picture because I always wanted to see you perform at least I got a glimpse of it. Hope to see more of it through out the year.

Mamta:

well expressed thought and good choice of images to illustrate your passion and your dreams. The second photograph, is that a self-portrait? It doesn't do justice to your describe passion for dance. Think how better you can convey that.
