For the past two years, I’ve made it a point to come down to Mumbai from Pune to celebrate my birthday. Just because I was in Bangalore, it doesn’t mean I would let this change! So, once again I booked my tickets via Go Air. However, this time it wasn’t a Rs.3,000 return as I got it last month. It was a full 2k more and well, it is well worth it!

Selling Books at ABC
While making my last post, it completely slipped my mind about our visit to Appa Balwant Chowk in Pune to sell our MBA books.

So went all the way to work by rickshaw with my two colleagues. Work was great on Monday, though I did have to stay late to finish off some of it. Couldn’t get the trax for Airoli because they were full and so came with Mr. Mudit Goel in his Honda City.
