Awesome means “Inspiring awe or admiration or wonder or amazing”. “Awesome Some” is an attempt to capture the perspectives of some amazing people in this world. These people may or may not be well renowned but have taken a path less traveled, people who think different, people who are doing great work to make this world a better place and people who quit their lucrative jobs to become entrepreneurs.

Do contact me if you know some awesome person and want him to interviewed for this blog.
