Connecting with friends, old or new; that&#8217;s time well spent. I think <a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/permalink.php?story_fbid=2062997133914460&amp;id=100006125807197\">Ashay<\/a> put it in words best: it&#8217;s a good excuse to randomly talk with someone you&#8217;d like to spend more time with or get to know better. Please don&#8217;t hesitate to reach out and let me know! \ud83d\ude04<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Update for April 2020: Unfortunately, with COVID, this is less possible. However, I still want to make it happen. So, if you&#8217;re interested in this standing offer, still reach out and we can schedule a Zoom call instead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"780\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sahilnawab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Van-Gogh-Cafe-le-soir-780x1024.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-617\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sahilnawab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Van-Gogh-Cafe-le-soir-780x1024.jpeg 780w, http:\/\/www.sahilnawab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Van-Gogh-Cafe-le-soir-228x300.jpeg 228w, http:\/\/www.sahilnawab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Van-Gogh-Cafe-le-soir-768x1009.jpeg 768w, http:\/\/www.sahilnawab.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/02\/Van-Gogh-Cafe-le-soir-scaled.jpeg 1949w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 780px) 100vw, 780px\" \/><figcaption>Van Gogh \u2014 Caf\u00e9 Terrace at Night (Caf\u00e9, le soir)<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I started blogging as a way to explore my own thoughts; kind of like a journal, a catalogue of my progression through time.
