About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To experience the different wonders of this world - from people to nature

ABOUT ME

I'm Kevin, originally from Mauritius but currently living and working in Singapore after spending 4 years in New York.

PHILOSOPHY

"A man needs to travel. By his own means, not by stories, images, books or TV. By his own, with his eyes and feet, to understand what he is. To some day plant his own trees and give them some value. To know the cold to enjoy the heat. To feel the distance and lack of shelter to be well under his own ceiling. A man needs to travel to places he doesn't know to break this arrogance that makes us see the world as we imagine it, and not simply as it is or may be. That makes us teachers and doctors of what we have never seen, when we should just be learners, and simply go see it."
- Amyr Klink
