About Me

CURRENT MISSION

In a nutshell: "To Experience the World in all its magic and mayhem."

ABOUT ME

What about me? Well for starters i obviously love traveling, or at least the idea of it because i've traveled far less than i want to. So far it's been fantastic though. The places, the people, the food, the sites, everything for that matter. Experiences triumph material goods any day of the week, and i'm glad to have realized this relatively early in life. So yea, i'm a pretty open person which makes new experiences all the more rewarding.

What else...I'm a sucker for great food, i love sports, and of course partying and socializing are fun too.

What i truly enjoy though, is having a great conversation. I love talking about art, film, music, books, philosophy, science, history, politics, ideas, your country, my country, the world in general, etc etc.

PHILOSOPHY

Live and let Live

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

I tend to have a lot of useless information about random stuff around the world. So much so that i ended up on a national TV talent hunt show in a host/VJ category.

I've flown a two seater aircraft!! With no side doors! Talk about making sideway turns.

Teach, Learn, Share

I love meeting new people. The best part of that is to learn about their experiences and understand their world, their culture, their outlook on life. I would like to think of myself as a good listener. Having said that i enjoy sharing my own personal experiences too. As someone who belongs to a 2000 year old (pukhtun/afghan)culture, and have grown up in a geography periodically occupied by the indus valley civilization, the budhists, the greeks, the persians, the mongols, the arabs, and the british, I derive my outlook on life from from a variety of sources.

Germany, Malaysia, United Arab Emirates
