About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Travelling, finding out more about the world...

ABOUT ME

I enjoy travelling and meeting new people/cultures. I think travelling is a great way to understand and develop oneself and I have aways found travelling immensely rewarding.

I enjoy the outdoors. As much as I enjoy city life, I need a break once in a while. Living in a city can drive me crazy sometimes.

I enjoy learning about the world. When I travel, I talk to people and learn more about their society. The world is big and messy. I try to make as much sense of it as I can.

PHILOSOPHY

Difficult to capture in one paragraph.

Music, Movies, and Books

I find it hard to appreciate fiction but I do read a lot of non-fiction. I enjoy reading about ideas and people. The former explains why I enjoy philosophy. The latter explains why I enjoy couchsurfing.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Trekking in the Himalayas was amazing. So was trekking in Patagonia. So is studying in Oxford. But ultimately, I think life cannot be reduced to what we have done or seen. Living a good life isn't a matter of checking boxes.
