  • Dell Vostro Laptop I have a Dell Vostro which I use every day. The best thing about it is that it’s a tiny office which I can carry around anywhere I go. It’s a source of entertainment and has the best battery life during load shedding. It is my quintessential work station.
  • Sun Glasses I have an assortment of sunglasses. My favorites, however, would be the pair of Police and Ray Ban polaroid shades I own. I buy a lot of sunglasses and have also lost a lot of them.
  • Hats I have two hats, one of which is very close to my heart. It was the first thing Malvika and I bought together when we were not even dating. So the hat is one of the earliest memories of our relationship.
  • Apple iPhone 5 It’s like a laptop I can carry in my pocket. Also, it’s a gift from my wife, so it’s special.
  • Zippo I simply love Zippos. I have been carrying them around since 2006, and I make sure that I buy one of them on every special occasion. I still have my first Zippo and unlike my sunglasses, I never lose my Zippos. I plan to buy more of them.
  • Watches I own different brands of watches from Swatch to Diesel. However, the one I wear as my daily drive is a Swatch which was a wedding gift from my Uncle and Aunt. I also have a sundial which I prefer wearing with my formals.
  • Muffler This muffler is a gift from my wife which she brought from Australia. I don’t usually wear mufflers but because it’s a gift from her, it is my favorite accessory now.
