Not Overthinking

Marriage, Burning Man and Life Updates


Listen Later

In this episode of "Not Overthinking," we cover a range of recent experiences and future plans. Ali talks about his recent marriage, honeymoon in Costa Rica, and his time at Burning Man, where he learned the value of living in the present and taking hobbies seriously. 

We also discuss Ali's move to Hong Kong, his plans to join local clubs, and our thoughts on aging. Our conversation touches on our shared interests in photography, filmmaking, and gear reviews. Additionally, we dive into my business venture, VoicePal, and Taimur’s reading recommendation, 'The Two Cultures' by C.P. Snow.
