CURRENT MISSION

Explore as much of the world as possible with the limited free time that I have, meet many people and experience as much culture as possible.

ABOUT ME

I'm currently pursuing my Masters in Environmental Change and Management at Oxford, after completing my bachelors at Brown University in the US. I'm quite an adventurous guy willing to take risks and keen on exploring as much of the world as I can - to learn from others and teach a little of what I've learnt in return as well. I've always been trying to push myself out of comfort zones and experience something new whenever I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Make the most out of what you get.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Done: Got caught in the middle of the Turkish uprising with 100,000 protesters in Turkey. While photographing the protesters, I got slapped in the face by one of them. I ended up making a photo exhibition in school from the trip.

Done: Ran three marathons so far. One of them was a night run. It was an exhilarating experience and I'd run more in the near future.

Done: Made it in the newspapers. For what? Well, something good. Tell you if I couchsurf with you.

Going to do: Travel to learn the stories of people from around the world and build relationships.

Teach, Learn, Share
