Exactly one year ago, on September 24, 2023, I had my first international solo visit to China, and since then, I’ve traveled solo to more than 18 countries in the past year. I couldn’t ask for more. There are so many stories and experiences to tell and share.

This is my first time speaking at KubeCon, so it was a great moment for me.
Thank you all for attending.
Learning isn't limited to paid or solo pursuits; it solely hinges on personal preference. I've cracked GSoC, LFX, and GSoD without taking any paid courses. I learned from my failures and eventually succeeded. Ultimately, it's all about one's passion for lifelong learning.
On a delightful Saturday morning, I had a run with Adidas runners and later attended the SRE Bengaluru meetup at CRED's office.
What a beautiful day it was.

It has been more than 1.5 years since I graduated from college, but I am not able to move on from memories. I did not have many friends in college, but the attachment to the college area and my hostel room makes it so hard to move on.
After graduating in 2022, I revisited my college, where professors encouraged me to mentor juniors. Assisting others is highly rewarding.
Witnessing their growth and achievements brings immense joy, reminding us of the value of helping others along life's journey.
In 2024, I had an amazing opportunity to visit Murdeshwar! The town is located on the coast of the Arabian Sea, and it's famous for the awe-inspiring Murdeshwar Temple.
