About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Learning by living and living by learning. I believe that education is a two way street, where one can simultaneously teach while learning from others. Meeting new people from different cultures who possess different values, really help to expand ones perspective on existence

ABOUT ME

I am living in Melbourne. I studied philosophy and economics and I currently plan to undertake postgrad studies in economics. I love sport, movies, music and adventures. I have done a lot of traveling so far and I am always excited to meet new people.

Interests

I love a range of different things

Philosophy, here is where my passion truly lies, I love to read and write ( I also write a lot of poetry which I would be happy to share with you).

All sports- NFL, soccer, Aussie sports ( cricket and Australian football)
Board games ( especially chess)

Music
Anything pink floyd
Love a range of music from classic rock to jazz to classical to hip hop.

Reading: my favourite authors are Albert Camus, kurt Vonnegut and even though it is non-fiction, Nietzsche is an amazing writer
