Introducing Deepa - your Friend at the other End!
About Me
What do I write about myself? A neat little biography perhaps?
Or better still, a listing of labels: Deepa Krishnan, 41, working woman, entrepreneur-of-sorts, mother, wife, daughter, do-gooder, travel expert, local guide, dieter, maid-coordinator, wrinkle-worrier... I give up! There are far too many labels, and at the end of it all, the story still remains untold.
Let's settle for a boring biography, then? I have a Business degree in Marketing and Finance, with 16 years of work experience and ten years of consulting practice in global banking technology. I have spent six years in tourism, providing travel information and insightful local tours. I'm an avid reader, and I love travel, wildlife and all things green.
If you're travelling to India, and you need help with planning the visit, please do write to me. I'd be glad to help.
