Fardeen Sheikh is 19 years old, and he has travelled the world at a very young age. Before moving to Atlanta, he’s lived around Europe and the Middle East. He has an older brother who lives in Massachusetts. Sheikh enjoys watching movies, drinking inordinate amounts of coffee, photography, writing and drawing–even with his best attempts–stick figures. He speaks Bengali, Hindi, French, English and Swedish, while learning a bunch of new things in his free time.
