I was grateful to be given the opportunity to contribute to the Science Diplomacy magazine, which is a publication by the National Institute of Science Communication and Information Resources, India. I took the opportunity to write about my personal journey to science diplomacy, starting with my interest in international affairs and relations, to my participation in the TWAS-AAAS Course on Science Diplomacy in Trieste, Italy.
