Hello there and thank you for making your way to my blog and my about me page.
My name is Abhishek Behl also known to many as Abhs. I have a background in wildlife conservation with a masters (MSc) in wildlife conservation & nature based tourism from the Durrell Institute of Conservation and Ecology (DICE) University of Kent at Canterbury (United Kingdom).
Along with the lovely world of wildlife conservation, I also live with Multiple Sclerosis (MS) & this neurological condition is the relapsing and remitting form. Even just thinking about it now and counting, I have had MS for the last 18 years. WOW - That's a very long time and I should be very thankful with what and still am able to do with my career (details on this page). MS affects every people differently and mine is more living with the fatigue everyday but am able to move about and get to places without requiring assistance. I am thankful for that everyday.
It has been a long wait to start this blog and finally I have got around it. Most of all my updates & happening in my life will be shared on this blog. Do leave a comment below as it is always nice to hear from you.
Many thanks
Abhishek (Abhs)
