ABOUT ME

I was born and raised in Nepal till I was 18. Then I moved to Southern Africa to attend International Baccalaureate program. I spent two years there and then bummed around for a bit longer. The two years in Africa are one of my best memories in life. The friendships I made still last today and I wouldn't know how I would have developed without all those idealisms and those incrdeible friends. I then moved to Mozambique for a while and then went back home to Nepal.

From then on the journey continued to US. My college life I guess was not a typical life as I worked two jobs and took full time classes but more than that I was disappointed at how people at large did not have dreams and passion. Frustrated I went on study abroad the next year to Spain and had a fantastic time. I travelled a lot that year, made amazing girlfriends who still mean a lot to me, partied, learned a new language and learned to cook. (I love cooking!)

When I returned to US I had somehow grown up a lot and it felt like home. I was closer to my brother than ever before and made deep friendships. After graduation I moved to Sweden and could not have taken a better decision in life. I am in love with Stockholm. Even in the dark I cannot stop smiling because I feel so free here... the rain, the snow nothing really bothers me and I hope it will never end how I feel today ... just happy and satisfied and full of life and energy!

Music, Movies, and Books

I am horrible with music... I can probably count all the songs I know on my finger. I love to go out and dance the night away and I most often only the chorus but that doesn't stop me from enjoying the wee hours of morning:-) Right now I am hung on donkeyboys and really trying sharpen up my musical abilities... we'll see how far I will come along....hehe!

I guess I am slightly nerdy.... I love books. I have really enjoyed last year in terms that I read lot more than I did when I was in college. I love that now i can read in Swedish and really enjoy them.
