Blogiversary

Hello and Happy New Year.

Today, it has been 1 full year since I started this blog. Can't believe I maintained a blog for an entire year, 365 days, no wait 366 days, sounds quiet a number.

Agreed, I have not been a regular but 43 posts in a year does mean something. Right?

When I tell people I write a blog, the first thing that comes up is 'What is the blog about?'. People always have a perception that a blog should be specific to something. Maybe that is the way of it. And so I feel proud to have a blog on nothing specific.

I started blog with the intention of making some money out of it. And to make money you need ads, which I started recently here. Ads need to be clicked, which never happens here and so I made 0 out of this blog, except for a few vouchers from the contests.

So, am I unhappy with it??

Nopes. I might have started the blog from greed to earn some extra bucks but now its become more of a leisure, a hobby. And as hobby I plan to continue it in future, with no greed. Money, no money, it doesn't matter. Only thing that matters now is that the blog must go on.

Last year, I had a humorous tale posted: Story of Evolution. For which I did get some good feedback and so this year I might come up with something new. So keep following.

Gracias y Adios (Thanks and Goodbye)

The One With The Coastal Ride

Image
It was 7:30 in the morning of 4th March, 2017 at Chandni Chowk, Pune. 22 people on 18 rides set out for a journey of different sorts. I was also there, like a ghost among the 22 different souls. Thirty minutes into the start and I was thinking, 'Did I make a mistake joining this journey? Do I make some lame excuse and go back home?' This trip was definitely out of my comfort zone. I had been on road trips earlier (with friends) but never on an overnight trip with 22 strangers. It was difficult, for an introvert like me. I need time to mingle up and a day was surely not going to help create that bond. Plus, this was going to be my longest bike expedition till date. But then I thought otherwise, 'It was the trip that I needed not that I wanted.' And then I went with the flow. It was only a week before when I saw this post from Mysterious Rangers that I decided I have to go for this. So I started asking my friends, if they would like to join? And one by on

Kasarsai Dam and Beyond

All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy. Famous proverb, agreed by many, followed by few. Well, I'm one of those, who follows this from the heart. And I have my own version of it. It goes something like this No road trip, makes roy ma sad boy. Pretty lame, huh. If you have anything better, do mention it in the comments. So this time, I set out on a trip to Kasarsai Dam with my friend Zeyn . One does not always ride solo, cause even Han Solo is not solo. He always has Chewbacca for company. (For those who don't know Han Solo and Chewbacca, go watch Star Wars). And yes, me and Zeyn are like Han Solo and Chewie. Okay. Now coming back to the trip. I had been to Kasarsai a few times earlier as well. Its a pretty nice place - with a serene environment, the sound of lapping water, chirping of birds, wind blowing on your face and finally the pleasant view of the setting sun. Kasarsai in its glory.

Team Infy @ Alibaug and more...

This one is about the trip after I left Infosys. There are one too many trips that I have been in past 2-12 months that I have not written about, including trip to Manali. So, please bear with me. A good old saintly person by the name of Baba Roysonath once said - Better late than never . FaisalKhan02 My last day in Infy and Faisal Khan02 (my cubicle mate) asked me if I would be interested in a trip to Nagaon/Alibaug. I wasn't sure about it but I don't know why I agreed for it. Sometimes you don't think before you decide and this one was a similar decision. Next day at 5am I get a call that the bus is reaching in 15 minutes, come at the gate of the society. And I was still in bed, sleeping through the alarm, woken up by the call. Somehow I mustered strength to get out of bed, get ready, pack the bag and meet with others boarding from the same place. We were up before the Sun The bus which was supposed to reach in 15 minutes, did take quarter to an hour
