MY JOURNEY

My journey has been unsettling, diverse but always enthralling and moving forward. I have experienced diversity and change in a very broad spectrum. I was born in Germany, raised in India and have spent the last 4 years in London - so three cities, and 4 schools and 11 houses to add to this fun. Change is just a normal life vector, almost a constant. Adapting to this change and learning to thrive in its ebbs and flows has been a key influencer on my personality. I have seen highs of love, friendship, joy, and belongingness but also lows of grief, insecurities, loneliness and failure. I have learned to create some equanimity on this bumpy road. Perhaps the biggest learning in these years is that life and people are the best teachers. School gives us the tools to learn and life truly teaches. So I enjoy living and being with people. My social bonds are spread across a wide range of age groups - I am the favourite of 5-year-old kids, the best agony aunt for my friends, argumentative partner of intellectuals (of all ages) and the patient, listening darling of at least ten 70+ senior citizens.
