Fellow scenic route traveler. Below is what I build between adventures, the mountains I have climbed (literal and figurative), and the kit that comes on every trip.
I am Deviprasad, from Odisha, India. I build products full time and I also build them on weekends. When I am not at the keyboard, my favourite move is to drive 80 km out with friends and land at some hole in the wall place for dinner. I own 25 plus classics, only finished 3 or 4, but I keep buying more. I am a fast learner and I take the scenic route.
Trekking in the Himalayas, a slow month in Japan, and driving the west coast of Ireland with no plan.
It is the fastest way to notice how many of your defaults are arbitrary. And the best coffee shops are always in the least likely places.
A quiet weekend in the hills, no laptop, no signal, and I came back with three new project ideas. There is a lesson in there.
Roles, education, and the moments that shaped how I build.
I read every note. If our stacks or ambitions overlap, tell me what you're working on.
