Reading
Check out what I am reading now: My shelf at GoodReads.
Rock Climbing
Years have gone by, and I have been climbing more often. Now I am more aware of my strengths and limitations. I try to go to IMF Delhi once or twice a week. They have a very small wall, but I think there's enough to keep one busy and entertained.

Previously I climbed at Backerstrasse, in Vienna, Austria. So if you were at Backstrasse in the evening, chances were high you will find me there. A few more days before I head for another part of the world. One of these days I will manage to put up a website with some climbing pictures. Meanwhile heres something. Or check out my YouTube videos.

(Old stuff) My first outdoor climbing trip pictures. A few more pictures from my first visit to Planet Granite, Belmont after my ankle injury. Since then I have been to quite a few trips but haven't got a webpage together with some cool pictures. See you at the Stanford climbing wall. [Short climbing video]

Alpine Club Vienna
Nice group of people to tag along, and explore places around Vienna.
Stanford Alpine Club
A club which does a lot of technical climbing and stuff like that. A great place to meet interesting people.
Photography
Something that I am beginning to learn and appreciate. Its a lot of fun and a whole different learning experience though at times it gets pretty frustrating given my limited artistic abilities. I have an old Nikkormat FT3 with 50mm lens. I once compiled a manual for Elan IIe. For photo critiques, equipment reviews, etc check out photo.net.
Day/Backpacking Trips
Short descriptions of the few day/backpacking trips I have been to. I used to go backpacking a lot and keep the webpage updated but ....
Stanford Outing Club
A good place to get started on light hikes or backpacking trips.
Stanford Cricket Club
We play cricket in a somewhat serious fashion. We also compete in the NCCA league.
Thursday Night Dinner
We used to go out for dinner together every Thursday night but never to the same place twice!!
