About

I was born into ISKCON in 1988, Brisbane.  I had a young childhood in New Gokul farming community, Australia, where I started attending a Gurukula day school.

I soon found myself in New Govardhana farming community, Australia, where I spent the rest of my childhood.  It was in Gurukula that I started to write and hankered every time in English class for creative writing.

In my teenage years I started writing a mundane fantasy novel with a word count of over 100,000 words.  I also spent a lot of time writing lyrics, which I wrote for over 300 songs.

When I started travelling I kept a diary and used to take hand notes.  I started first at the end of 2007.  Later I purchased a laptop, took notes down on the laptop and turned them into diaries.  And the rest is history…

      Thanks man. Glad you found my strange little Blog site. Depending on European residency, I am about to embark on a 2 month tour of Poland and there should be something to write up. Tune in.

      Hope all is well. All the best. Haribol

      Gahattha…only just noticed this now. It’s the same as Grhastha in sanskrit. That’s pretty much what I am.
