One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

1. Drove an old Enfield on the highest motor-able road in the world :-)
2. Stayed for a week in Drass during November ( Drass is the second coldest place on earth)
3. Got almost killed in Iran for starting a conversation with a married woman
4. Toyed around with a Kalashnikov before realizing it was cocked n loaded, and the 2 rounds I had fired weren't supposed to be in the gun !
5. Listen to Elleke play 'Comptine D'un Autre Ete' flawlessly and give me one of the most intense and unforgettable evenings of my life
6. Got so drunk that I slept through an attempted suicide attack on my team in Afghanistan
7. Was raised in India, learnt to hustle in the most natural way !
