Getting by, one trip at a time. I try to be unassuming, curious, impartial and stay humble. I like meeting new people (at least when I'm active on CS!), learn about their stories, and stories from local food, places, literature, culture, arts and the cinema. I like to hike and would love to explore a couple of nice hikes in your country. I also enjoy Jazz music and chilled out rooftop bars. Let's leave some stories to exchange in conversations. I'm based out of Dubai, originally from Pakistan. I do product management in the payments space in the MENA region.

Jedna niesamowita rzecz, którą zrobiłem/am
Hiked to one of the only two Blue Fire places in the world (Kawah Ijen, Indonesia), (and got engulfed in the fire but survived well!) :)
Ucz, Ucz się, Dziel się
Our stories and experiences and reflections on life around us :) I can share things about Pakistan and living in Pakistan (Hunza!). Would be glad to discuss cultures, history, books, movies and events around the world. As well as startup ideas!
