Nina Mehta loves the art of letter writing

Who or what that you follow on social media is your favorite guilty pleasure?

Gary Janetti on Instagram (@garyjanetti). There is nothing guilty. All pleasure. If you're not following him, you should be and you will never look at Prince George the same way.

Favorite news story of the year?

The Old Town Road Remix story with Lil Nas X and Billy Ray Cyrus. I love that music crossed the lines and bridged our common purposes here faster than we, some people, thought it could happen. Also, the midterm elections and all the stories of women who got in there from all walks of life to make a difference.

Internet : pro or con?

Mostly pro. All the technology surrounding media and how we communicate has opened up a lot of the world to many people. I think it's amazing you can talk to your family around the world and see each other's faces. When I was growing up it was one letter with weeks in between and it could feel formal (although I love the art of letter writing). Having said that, with all good things it opens up the belly of our worst beast and that's what you see unfortunately in shape of trolls, influencers, hate speech, etc. I'm still pro, though.

Describe your perfect tech free Sunday?

This is unexpectedly tough. But I would have to say reading or hanging out with my niece and nephew.

Flossing, Dabbing, Shiggy, or Shoot?

Dabbing. It seems to express a lot of feelings in one move and work for a lot of situations.
