Akshay Sthapit: Inspirational

 "Sthapit lives in Kathmandu and loves traveling, learning new things, and meeting new people.  He is a graduate of Georgia Tech (B.S.), MIT (M.S.), and Berkeley (PhD)". So sounds like he studied at the best institutions of the world and returned to Nepal after getting his Phd-- all by the age of 32. That's pretty impressive. That's the kind of life I always wanted for myself. It's good to know that although I won't be able to do it, there are other Nepalese around who have figured life out. After hearing all these stories about asylum, OPT, DUI and such Mr. Sthapit's story seemed like a breath of fresh year. Good job dude (if he is reading) and congrats!

The reason I am sharing this is that I feel that Mr.Sthapit could serve as a source of inspiration to a lot of  young Nepalese in the US.


*I read about sodne.com at another thread in sajha. That's how I came across Akshya's name. http://www.sodne.com/207/routable-gps-map-for-kathmandu
