About Me

CURRENT MISSION

"the start up"

ABOUT ME

Straightforward, friendly, peaceloving, easy, sometimes lost in thoughts, or being the philosopher.

I love sharing ideas with people and particularly those with their unique take on life. I am interested in many things.

I served in the Indian Army for 12 years in the Signals during which I have experienced my own country.

These days I run a start up that is into development of technologies that allow people to type in all languages of the world on the mobile phone. These have won many awards and are on a winning path.

I love all the people and things of the whole world.

I have written my book, titled "Unstoppable".
It has the story of my entrepreneurial journey as well references to couchsurfing through my travels around the world. You will like this book for varied reasons, try it. I invite you to download it free from http://paninikeypad.com/book
PDF, 298 pages.

PHILOSOPHY

Diogenes said that there was one only good, namely, knowledge; and one only evil, namely, ignorance.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

COUCHSURFING EXPERIENCE

Great experience at Singapore and then in Europe.

Interests

surfing the net, wikipedia, watching TV, blogs, emails, travel, some books... Biographies of obscure people that I get interested in after I get to know about them. Stuff from Gutenberg.

thinking, talking, dreaming about my next venture. Discriminate reading, great memory for the written word but forgetful about everything else. What day is it today?

Music, Movies, and Books

I like funny movies, and action thrillers. Like Blame it on Rio or Die Hard.
I also like social Indian films.

Hindi music of the 70s and 80s are very nice. But today's Indian music is awesome again.

The Atlas is a fav book, also non fiction science like Asimov and reference sections of libraries.
