About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Knowing myself & my surroundings better

ABOUT ME

If I really knew where I would be,
Then would I be where I am not?
But where I am, should I there be?
No one can tell..., at least I cannot!

But one thing I can tell for sure is that sometimes we have to give away the plans we had for life to have what life has to offer us...its really fun exploring some of the roads we never imagined would travel. I have consciously embarked on this journey wandering not because I am lost but knowing that I want to wander. So I am sure we will meet up sometime..

PHILOSOPHY

Everything in this world is connected and relative to each other..it's just a matter of finding the right frame of perspective of looking at, understanding, feeling & finding the connection.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Hiked up an erupting volcano in Indonesia & camped overnight on the crater rim..the most stunning experience of my life!

Seen circular rainbow three times so far, once in Indonesia, once in Iceland and once on a flight from Zurich to Amsterdam.

Scuba diving around south east asia..one word..STUNNING!

A private cruise in Malaysia on my birthday! Best ever!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwwYSXbpV-g

Riding a train on rooftop in Bangladesh as it passes through beautiful tea gardens & a National Park.

Bunjee Jumping in Thailand..THE moment of my life.

Skydiving in Gold Coast, Australia.

Teach, Learn, Share

The intensity of an experience is directly proportional to the efforts taken.
[ The view from top of a mountain looks/feels a lot more beautiful after a long strenuous hike instead of a cable car ride. :)]
