IT has been four years since lecturer Sasitharan Ramachandran moved to Langkawi for a posting at the Vocational College.
Being far from home, he quickly found himself bored and lonely during weekends on the island.
âThe loneliness made me want to try something new. I did not want to do something that people normally do, and I wanted something creative,â the 34-year old from Kalumpang in Selangor told theSun.
The determination to occupy his time and mind led him to scour YouTube, where he eventually stumbled upon the art of leaf carving.
His curiosity piqued, Sasitharan took a swing at it but was slightly disappointed.
âThe methods were not correct,â he said.
