About Me

My name is Riku Dhan Subba. I am the co-author of In Love with Butterflies and Other Stories. I love blogging, photography, travelling and writing. My writings have been featured in many national newspapers and international journal. 

In the past, I had worked with Bhutan Observer  as a journalist. Since 2010 I've been working in the Royal Civil Service of Bhutan (including secondment to BBS Channel 3, His Majesty's Secretariat of Bhutan as a Media Researcher). I was born in Chuzagang, Gelephu, and I currently live in Thimphu, Bhutan with my wife and daughter.
