Preface

Namaste and Hallo

This is my first concrete effort towards writing a blog.  I had enthu before but couldnt find time to gather all my thoughts at the same time and type it.

So,,,, howcome I now have enthu to blog? Well, I have moved to a new country now and I thought its worthwhile to share the experience.  Now I also have infinite time to write! :)  Oh,btw I will be blogging in a mix of these languages - English, Hindi, Kannada, IIT lingo, technical and German (when I start learning).  I'm not an expert in any language, so my blog will be in a simple language.

naveen-doTheNew : what does it mean?

Naveen means 'New'.  I like learning and doing new things, hence the title. For e.g. I have joined phd in which I have to do new stuff (hopefully :D ).  'Do the New' can also convey wrong meanings :P (deliberately chose this name).  I couldnt think of any other catchy name, hence such a name.  Shakespeare said 'Whats in a name'.  Name grabs attention, Shakespeare ka saTak gaya tha..saala kuch bhi boldeta.

The next few blogs will be about why I chose Germany for phd, German visa, pre-departure stuff and after-arrival stuff.

Tschüss
