How Small Connections Expand Our World

When I first met Mithul Krishna Kumar Ramachandran, he was a teenager in Coimbatore. When we reconnected more recently, he was much taller, well-travelled, educated connected - and more curious and kind than ever. Mithul shared his experiences studying overseas, building friendships with people around the world and approaching different cultures with a beautiful openness and curiosity. In this conversation, we explore what happens when we’re willing to step beyond what’s familiar - and how the smallest moments of connection can expand our world. From finance to cricket, food, friendships and cultural differences, Mithul has a genuine fascination with learning from the people around him. He shares stories from studying with people from over 100 countries, becoming more confident in starting conversations, the simple power of a smile or a “good morning”, and what we can learn from one another. It’s a conversation about curiosity, courage and connection – and a reminder that sometimes a much bigger world begins with one small interaction. What small connection might expand your world today?
