The Essential Update

Yes, I’m alive! :) I now work for Infor, Hyderabad. It's been an interesting six months. The first day at office; meeting your team; waiting for your first salary; the chill that warms your heart when you find its been credited; some awesome booze parties - the ride has been lots of fun.

Hyderabad was love at first sight. It's a fabulous mix of the old and the new. The chaotic narrow lanes and the solid beige buildings of the old city take you centuries back to the Mughal era, while you have the planned modern city growing at an unrelenting pace on the other side. This mix is perhaps the reason you can live your life at your own pace - Slow & easy? Fast & zippy? You got it all here.

The typical Hyderabadi is laid back, but he adores his food - whether its the famous Hyderabadi Biriyani or the Haleem during Ramdan or the Spaghetti Bolognaise, there is a mind-boggling number of quality restaurants you can choose from. You can't be unhappy with so much food around, can you? :)

Infor has a colourful history for sure; right from being one of the first foreign software companies to set-up shop in Hyderabad, to having a reputation for changing names every couple of years, thanks to being acquired. We were originally Baan, then Invensys, then SSA Global and now Infor.

The most important update yet: I've been fiddling around with the camera quite a bit lately. Even have a few humble efforts to show for it. So watch this space for some colours soon! :)
