Growing up as the different one, and being more than one thing.

THE CONVERSATION
In his own words.
The first KultureHouse conversation turns the questions on one of its hosts. In the centre chair, Aafthab talks about growing up, about identity, and about choosing his own path.
I had to be the quiet kid, I had to be away from the crowd, just so that I don't get picked on because I was always the different one.
I'm not just an engineer, I'm not just a chef, I'm not just a business owner. At the end of the day, I'm all of those things and more.
The story keeps going.
Next: Episode 2, Zuri, Friday 18 December.
