Winter Sports...

It's been more than 6 months now since I'm at Minneapolis, Minnesota... Again I'm very fortunate to be here during the winter as it is called the "God's frozen land".. It's really amazing to experience the snow which is very rare for us back in India..

Last weekend, I had been to a snow amusement park called "Buck Hill".. It was an ever lasting experience for me... At Buck Hill, you can do skiing (which I had seen in TV till date), Snowboarding and Snow Tubing... In the freezing cold, I did snow tubing (as it was relatively easier) and it was a thrilling experience.. For Snow Tubing, you have to pay $13 and you can enjoy it for 2 hours.. Let me tell you, 2 hours time is a big duration to sustain in that freezing cold...

At Buck Hill, apart from different snow sports activities the presence of different food courts and coffee centers makes the place more special.. The prices are reasonable..

Going forward, definitely I'll visit Buck Hill more frequently and next time I'll try my luck with Skiing.. (May God save me..)..

UHAULing.... in US...

In this blog let me share my experience of shifting home in America... You have to do the following activities for shifting your home... 1) Buy the card board boxes and pack your stuffs on your own... 2) Rent a truck to shift your stuff from one place to other and you have to drive that truck on your own. That truck is provided by a company called UHAUL. 3) Place all your stuffs inside the truck on your own. So, you have to carry your sofa, bed etc on your own. Therefore, you have to be a body builder to do all these activities. Remember, here there is no human labour to help you out. If you are hiring human labour then be ready to pay a hefty amount. 4) OK... All the stuffs are now packed and placed inside the truck. Now drive the truck on your own. 5) Reach the destination. 6) Unload all the stuffs.... Again on your own... 7) Return the truck to UHAUL (company) and pay the rental... 8) Your shifting is done... Cool..... That's how you have to live in USA. So, life is very easy he...

A way to give back...

Giving back to the society??? This sentence sounds a bit odd.. Yes, because we always believe in taking from the society... and we have taken it for granted that we'll always take from the society... Since our arrival to this beautiful world, we have taken almost everything from the society... It may be good education, good job or a safe and healthy society... and we assume that building a good society is the responsibility of Govt... Yes, you are right.. however, our country is a developing country.. not a developed country... Govt is doing its work at its pace... and since our country is one of the most populous country in the world, a lot of unprivileged people are there in the society.. unfortunately they are deprived from everything... they also don't get their basic school education... That's why the role of privileged people become very vital... Under current scenario, all the privileged people should raise their hand to support the unprivileged people.. We may argue...

Work from home..

I've a very strong feeling that the usage of modern technology will take India to the next level. The sooner we implement, the better for country.. These days Work From Home culture is a reality. In India, some MNCs and Indian IT companies have adopted this culture. However, majority of the chunk have not yet adopted. Let us understand how the 'WORK FROM HOME' culture can be implemented in all the iT companies: 1. Work: People can work through VPN connection using office laptop. 2. Meeting: By using dedicated bridge, all employees can attend meetings through phone. 3. Presentation: Many softwares are available e.g. 'Windows Meeting Space' can be used for any kind of online demonstration. 4. Video conference: SKYPE can be used for video conference. Advantages: a) There will be less traffic on road b) Less cubicles are required in office space c) People will save money from fuel expenditure and many more.. Disadvantages: a) Initial infrastructure cost e.g. providing l...
