One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) Last year, 4 friends & i - acted in a travel documentary ' BACKPACK EUROPE' that popularized the concept of backpack traveling. The idea is to highlight our travel experiences to Pakistan's audience about traveling via low-budget railway, low-cost airlines, hostel living in Europe. It got broadcasted in Geo News - our BBC or CNN in Pakistan and we became overnight travel presenters :)
2) I gather all strength and did a 'TANDEM SKYDIVE' overlooking beautiful palms in Dubai :) it was nervy at dive, pleasant after a jump & exhilarating during flip flops and landing :) :)
3) A 4-night-5-day stay in SUNDARBANS FOREST in South-western Bangladesh - fun-filled experience around Bengal delta.
