About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Live. Your. Life.

ABOUT ME

Born and bought up in Bombay India. Love to travel and explore the world. Have travelled to 20 countries and want to keep increasing this count !!

Adventure is in my blood. Have dabbled in everything from trekking to Para-gliding to Scuba-diving. I Have trekked to Mount Everest Base Camp (Tibet) and Dhaulagiri Base Camp (Nepal) over and above several other treks done in India.

PHILOSOPHY

A ship in a harbour is safe but that is not what a ship is made for !!

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1) Trekked to Mount Everest Advance Base Camp from Tibet (Eastern face). Reached an altitude of around 5100 metres. Trekked to Dhaulagiri base camp, Nepal (7th highest mountain in the world).

2) Ran with the bulls during San Fermin, a festival held in Pampalona (Spain) !! As if once was not enough, ran again the day after ! Boy, still wonder how I came back alive !

3) Scuba-dived on Phi-Phi island, Thailand.
