Of all the KubeCons I attended, KubeCon Paris was among the most taxing. I was constantly on the move, attending talks, meetings, and networking. The conference days were so tiring that I barely took any time to explore Paris. I used to come to my hotel and crash.  However, after …

My mother used to do that when I was a toddler; I used to fill a pan with water, add all the vegetable waste to it, and pretend to be cooking. Decades later, I learned cooking in my boarding school. It started with vegetarian cooking, but later, I also tried …

If you’ve really been following the blog, you know I’m a history nerd at heart. Whether it’s food, culture, or politics, I live for stories about places. From the tribals of Bastar to the halls of Versailles, every corner of the world has tales waiting to be discovered. That’s why …

I vividly remember when my trip to KubeCon Paris was confirmed a few months ago, I was on cloud 9 as I booked my tickets from Hyderabad to Paris. Having studied French in New Era High School, I had always dreamt of visiting the city “one day” to try my …
