Annapurna Circuit Trek: Fairy Tale of Love with Nature

“Annapurna Circuit Trek: Fairy Tale of Love with Nature” is a compilation of unforgettable memories of my unconsummated love affair with nature. You can call it a travelogue, but it’s more than that. A traveller visits a place and returns, but I have not yet returned. Though my body has pulled my mind towards Delhi, but the memories well crystallized inside the mind are making it wander even now. I…

Crypto Regulations: Apprehensions

Crypto regulation is antithesis to the idea of crypto. But, of course, as always anarchy has failed or is failing. The biggest problem with anarchy is that it magnifies the penetration and power of evil genius.
