About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To see machu pichu and skydive

ABOUT ME

I'm a grad student in Cornell from Nepal. I discovered CS through a blog site Solitary Wanderer when a friend of mine pasted this link from the blog "date a girl who travels". http://www.solitarywanderer.com/2012/02/date-a-girl-who-travels/ into my facebook page as a joke.

The blogger is a mostly solitary traveler and talks a lot about her CS experience. And that's how i came into being here.

Music, Movies, and Books

Books- The Ascent of Rum Doodle, Three Men in a Boat, Siddhartha, and a collective favorite that comes in a little package, my all time heart wrencher - the little prince.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Bungy jumping.
30 days backpack travel to one of the most remote areas of Nepal-sun burnt to death, and craving for every possible food at the end. But was totally worth it.
15 day road trip in the US

Teach, Learn, Share

I like to meet all kinds of people as I know that every one of us has something different and something unique about us. I love to hear about people talking about their lives. I like to talk about human behavior, culture, and where the world is headed. Whether we will blow ourselves before the sun blows up or whether we will be able to create civilizations in other heavenly bodies. While travelling, this small Earth always amazes me by its diversity and largeness and I like to think how puny we humans are compared to nature.
