About Me

ABOUT ME

Where do I begin? I am a sucker for new experiences, new cuisines, new alcohol, new cities, new music, etc you get the drift. I've dabbled in writing, environmental activism, loafing around, genetics before deciding that I most enjoyed running my own business. Now besides work, I spend my time inflicting experimental cooking on willing friends and staring into the sky through a telescope.

I traveled a lot a few years back as a student before I became an entrepreneur and now only end up traveling inside India. Would love to host people with an interesting story and who would love to get a tour of Hyderabad that weaves through historical monuments, crowded market lanes, road side food and a platter of personally recommended biryanis. Also happy to cook for people willing to lend a hand in the kitchen. Cheers

PHILOSOPHY

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
