ABOUT PAINTINGS WRITING

I'm Rakesh Gunduka, a Software Engineer living in Mumbai. Nowadays I am just coding, but I like going for treks, painting and love writing some small poems. Also I love physics and mathematics.

About The Blog

Since I started my career, I always wished to have my own personal blog, to share my thoughts, learnings, ideas and life. I tend to think a lot on even smallest of things, which sometimes makes me insane and sometimes wise. However, it makes me what I am. So, this blog for you is all about my learnings, few topics which I feel may help somebody, ideas and life. As I said before, I am fond of treks, so planning to write few blogs on my experiences. Also I would be sharing few boring philosophical topics which are close to me and might help somebody like you.
