He didn’t just leave home he carried it with him in recipe notes, old photos, and the echo of familiar voices. Studying abroad didn’t hand him a polished transformation; it handed him burnt biryani, empty wallets, rejection emails, freezing winters, and the kind of loneliness no brochure warns you about.
But it also gave him wins: learning to stretch a few pounds into a week of meals, turning a friend’s idea into a startup pitch, finding the courage to speak up in class and watching people lean in. The real lessons came from warehouses, boardrooms, late-night buses, and ordinary moments that slowly reshaped him.
The Question That Remains is the journey of an international student who came abroad for a degree and found something bigger resilience, belonging, and a home in two countries. He arrived scared. He leaves bold.
And this is the story of how that happened, one ordinary day at a time.

Mahadevu Rohit
Rohit Kumar Mahadevu left Andhra Pradesh for the UK with more questions than plans. Since then, he’s been an international student, entrepreneur, designer, digital marketer, podcaster, public speaker, and President of the Hertfordshire Students’ Union, representing 38,000 students.
His path hasn’t been tidy—warehouse shifts, boardrooms, failed recipes, near-miss scams, and ideas scribbled on napkins. He still keeps the recipe notes his mom packed in his suitcase and geeks out over tech, design, and AI.
What drives him isn’t a perfect plan—it’s curiosity. The willingness to try, fail, and try again. His writing is the same: honest, imperfect, and meant to sit beside you rather than impress you.
