I'm a business finance major who quit his corporate job and dropped out to pursue documentary filmmaking. I started working my first project in various cities across India and I've spent the last 11 months traveling throughout South East Asia ending up in Scandinavia. I love to learn new things especially about underground culture like music dance and food on a local level trying to understand and experience as much as possible about every place I'm in! I was raised by awesome parents who taught me to be a devoted hard worker in whatever I pursue, and to always be organized, smart, and open to what the world has to offer.

A lot of people travel from place to place filling in as many destinations as possible in the short time they have to travel. I've always taken the opposite approach and find that the best way to really know a place is to live there and stay in one city for as long as it takes. This is evolved a step further into staying with people who've already done that, lived life there and really getting to know it beneath the surface. I like to look at traveling like every new country or city is an adventure or a mysterious challenge to unlock and discover, where the locals become guides and gurus, and the people I stay with are my mentors. I've made so many amazing connections and lifelong friends this way.

Una cosa straordinaria che ho fatto
I became a Buddhist monk in Thailand for a month to better understand Buddhism in Thai Culture. In 2011 I ran the Grand Canyon R2R2R (rim to rim to rim) ultra marathon in 22 hours. 47 miles (75 km). (My knees still haven't forgiven me.)
