The other side of me

Mountains, bikes
and open roads.

When I'm not writing code, I'm chasing horizons. These are some of the trips that changed how I think, live and see the world.

Two-wheel Therapy
Nothing clears the head like a long ride. Highway or mountain road — it doesn't matter. The throttle is the best reset button I know. Some of my clearest thinking happens at 80 kmph with the wind in my face and no notifications.

The Roads
Spiti roads are not roads — they're suggestions. Loose gravel, blind corners, single-lane paths cut into cliffsides. Every kilometre earns your respect.
Earned every metre

Nights in the Valley
No light pollution, no sound. Spiti at night has the kind of sky that makes you feel small in the best possible way. Stars so dense it looks like someone spilled milk across the sky.
Best skies I've seen

The People
In the most remote villages, complete strangers offered food, shelter and help without being asked. That generosity — no transaction, no reason — stays with you longer than any photo.
Changed my perspective
  What I'm into right now
📚
Reading
Designing Data-Intensive Applications. Also anything about how people make decisions under uncertainty — turns out Spiti prepared me well for that.
🤖
Exploring
Agentic AI systems, LangGraph, multi-agent patterns. The same curiosity that took me to Spiti drives how I approach new technology.

Planning
Next route is already being researched. If you have a suggestion — mountains preferred, guardrails optional — I'm listening.
