Hi Everyone,
This is Episode 5 of The Knowmads Podcast.
A lot of students all around the world
leave their home country and move to another
county to prsue higher education. We often
talk about their learnings and success but in
reality what goes behind all that enlightenment is mostly never talked about. Our guest today has a PhD in physics who left his country, his family
in Nepal, to pursue his career in the states.
Even though this journey was not ideal, his
sanguine nature lead him to where he is now.
Hope you enjoy the episode.

Hi Everyone,
This is Episode 6 of The Knowmads Podcast.
The path to self-exploration is very unique for everyone. Our passion, ambition and relationships play an instrumental role in shaping our lives. Our guest today found his true expression and self in literature. His humility and empathy allowed him to overcome all the challenges that life threw at him. With exploring literature, friendships, love, life and lots of laughter, this was one of the most heartfelt conversation in a very long time.
P.S. This was an online podcast so the listener may experience some glitching once in a while but the heart of the conversation is preserved.
