Back to my roots

I am settling down in Technopark and an amazing park with so much of scenic beauty. I have finally got the chance to be called as a CEO. The companies here in the park are enterprising. From product development to offshore services they cover the entire gamut of the IT spectrum. So back to my roots and catching up with old buddies. A morning travel by train through the backwaters to my office and an evening stroll across the technopark has now become a part of my life. Away from the mad traffic of Chennai and Bangalore and finally at ease and also at peace.
