As a research student in Computer Science, you will find myself before computers most of the time. But that doesn’t mean my life is confined to bits and bytes. Though for sure, any conversation on Information Technology grabs my attention first. But I am also interested in history, a bit of writing and traveling.
When traveling in train, you will always find my gaze outside the window, cherishing the beauty of nature and appreciating the handiwork of humans. I prefer traveling in trains that goes through the mountains, over the deep waterfalls and through dense forests. The tracks make me wonder about the great effort of people to build long tunnels and high bridges and the precision with which they placed every track to reach the correct destination.
I like is to visit the historical monuments. I feel that every brick of a building has a story to tell. A story which doesn’t end by simply praising the craftsmanship of architects and laborers. But it’s a story often neglected and forgotten, a story of the joys, despair, victory, defeats and struggles. There are many lessons to learn from the past; lessons to improve our present and future. Those lessons are answers to some of the present day problems.
In my list of books to be read, you will find some, that are from the scientists of the past like Leonardo da Vinci. I am often surprised that many things which have become part of our daily lives were once envisioned by Leonardo, but most of them couldn’t take the practical form because of the limitations of the contemporary technology.
I assume that any random reader of this post have got a rough picture of who I am. But I am not sure whether I should write further describing myself, because that’s what this blog is meant for.
