77-year-old Yusuf Hashim is a global explorer, author, and freelance adventure photographer.

He was the Managing Director at Shell Chemicals, where he worked for 32 years before electing to retire in 1999 at the tender age of 53. Since then, he has gradually checked off items on his bucket list, including driving across 120 countries on 6 continents; climbing active volcanoes in Africa and Indonesia; sailing to Antarctica 7 times, and becoming the oldest person to obtain a paramotor flying qualification at 68. Yusuf's love for photography led him to start PhotoMalaysia.com, an online community of photographers with members from Malaysia and other neighbouring countries. He was also a lecturer at Open University Malaysia's Diploma in Photography course and has self-authored and published a dozen travel and photography coffee table books. Through his sharing, Yusuf hoped to inspire others to reimagine life, the phases and stages of life, and live life to the fullest.
