eCommerce consultant by profession, I am an avid foodie and travel addict. Places with heritage value or natural beauty and small eateries popular locally are subjects on which I love to blog. I love to communicate with locals and find out stories wherever I visit. Though I do not consider myself a serious photographer, I love clicking pictures and share them along with my stories.
Whenever I get some time, I contribute to Wikipedia, mostly editing articles and adding relevant pictures. I contribute my pictures to Wikimedia Commons too. For the past five seasons I am attending the Wikipedia Takes Kolkata photo scavenger hunt. I was the organiser of the last one. Read my posts on the third and fourth seasons.
I love cooking and mixing recipes to create something new. I have won several pan India food blogging competitions for my innovative recipes.
