Traveller, bibliophile and wordsmith with a yen for international relations. A journalist and budding author of short fiction, life is a daily struggle to uncover the latest breaking story while attempting to be Hemingway in the self-same time.

Believes firmly that life without the written word is a life best not lived. That’s me, Ashwin Ahmad.
