About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Exploring - Countries, Cultures & Life on Earth :)
(Paused for a moment)

ABOUT ME

HI this is Yogi an Adventurer, Traveler and Explorer who likes to explore Nature new places, meet new people and feel different life around us.
I like travelling, trekking, hiking and camping being top of mountains, para gliding - flying like a bird in sky, Adventure sports, getting lost in nature and enjoying its beauty, long drives etc,. I love meeting new people learning about their cultures and philosophies making special connections with people. I like tasting new dishes being vegetarian my choice is very limited but still where ever i go I always try to enjoy local cuisines and new dishes...most of the time i enjoy but you know sometimes i have to force myself to eat that weird dish ewwww my face cant be funnier than that. I As an explorer my life journey continues and always searching for different paths to enjoy life, share Joy and happiness with people around help each other in making most out of it as much as i can and record best moments of life while i am alive:)

depending on people i can get along very well- share thoughts, cultures, ideas... but first i might be less talky and reserved don't mind about that :p

well as a professional i am computer engineer and Project manager but when i am out of office and travelling i am like a kid on vacation

my mission is to travel all over world meet local people and experience local culture to learn and share knowledge,Make friends spread peace, Love & Happiness

i want to explore life and various paths so that life can be enjoyed its fullest. Exploring good side of life so that bad moments can be forgotten because our world is so wonderful where there are so many things to see, learn & feel but our life is so small & precious.
One day when you look back at your life and how you spent, only the moments of Joy, love and happiness that matters at the end, you realize the fact that it doesn’t matter how much money you have millions...billions..trillions..cannot buy those moments or change it..

Yogi - the explorer :)

PHILOSOPHY

I am not religious but i believe in karma - "You reap what you sow" in other meaning if we give happiness and help others, we will receive the same in return. Be kind spread love, happiness and peace. life is precious don't waste in hatred and misery.

We cannot eliminate hunger,
but we can feed each other.
We cannot eliminate loneliness,
but we can hold each other.
We cannot eliminate pain,
but we can live a life
of compassion
