Howdy, from New Zealand.

I am Chaitanya, an Indian living in Auckland, New Zealand. We are a happy family. I work for a local technology company for my living. Among few others, WordPress and writing are my passions. This is why I am here 🙂

I started blogging with Blogger in 2006 and eventually reached Mecca of Blogging: WordPress. Most of my posts are on my other self hosted blog.

I am on WordPress.com for a specific reason- to make friends, learn WordPress.com and improve my writing.

Why are you blogging publicly, rather than keeping a personal journal?
I am a perpetual learner. One of the many ways to learn is to take the good from what others are doing. This is why I read blogs. Over the past many years I met interesting people, learned valuable lessons and got some amazing inspiration from ordinary people like me. So my blog is my contribution to the blogging world. Because I hate to be a passive consumer and would like to share my stories with the world.

What topics do you think you’ll write about?
I write about my personal stories, interesting things that I come across my way, inspirational stories about myself and others, learning hacks and anything else I feel like sharing.

Who would you love to connect with via your blog?
Fellow interesting people from across the world.

If you blog successfully throughout the next year, what would you hope to have accomplished?
Learn more about interesting and inspirational people, improve my writing, become a WordPress.com Pro.
