Meet Dr. Usama Basit, an A&E registrar on #TeamSouth but currently  travelling the North of England to get a taste of the good life.

We got  to know each other through Twitter (the power of social media) and  bonded over our shared love for meeting new people and telling stories. In this episode, he tells me (and himself) the importance of focusing on  the journey over the destination, the value of honesty in life and we  extolled the virtues of the 'chacha' who fixed everything wrong for an extra 500 rupees. He also dabbles in blogging at https://themaddocblogs.com/

Or as he puts it:

"Islamabad. The capital of Pakistan, and of my heart. How I miss it, its  well-thought-out and planned sectors; the roll parathas of Munchies';  the cheese naan at Monal; the long drives; the greenery; the view on a  rainy day with the Margalla Hills as a backdrop - what do I miss the  most? Is it the place? Or the people? Or the memories? I think it is a  combination of all three. And the fact that in Isloo, everyone knows  everyone. You can not go to a wedding and just know the hosts, you will  run into your school buddies. You can not go to the barber or for a  coffee without meeting your neighbours or your juniors. And you will  find the rest of them either at Daman-e-koh or Centaurus. That is what I  miss most about Islamabad. The feeling of belonging. Of home."
