P.V. Subramaniam is based in Mumbai, India. He is a dentist by profession, eking out a hand to mouth existence, but as a passionate writer, he believes in putting one's money where one's mouth is. Afflicted by wanderlust, he has written several articles for travel and in-flight magazines. He is a voracious reader and celebrates the pliability of the English language. He is serious enough to believe that humour is a dying art because people think that it is just for laughs. He loves nature and wildlife (including his wife), thinks he is a great photographer, and strongly espouses the cause of environmental conservation. He also thinks that he can save the world.
