I have spent the lockdown by doing three things which I am always passionate about:

1. Marathon

I ran half marathons on the building terrace and in the balcony of my flat.

2. Long exposure photography

I tried light painting for the first time and the outcome was amazing. 

These are some pictures I shot

3. Cooking

Before the lockdown, I'd never cooked in my life.

I used to spend most part of life staying at my sister's place or as a paying guest so I never got a chance to try my hands at cooking.

But in the last 45 days I have cooked close to 20 different recipes and all were delicious to eat.

I hope my story will motivate others to utilise this valuable time in doing something which we never tried our hands on.
