Coming Home to India After a Long Time

Mom and Dad look slightly older every time they pick me up from the airport. Though I video called on a very regular basis, the real picture still surprises me with every visit. I am at the bottom of my energy levels after a 13-hour flight in economy class. By…

About Me — Sruthi Korlakunta

I think of myself as Pac-man collecting pointless dots on its way to certain death. — Hi. Nice to meet you, what’s your name? (Also, n2mywyn is my current ear-worm. Feel free to let it play in the BG while you read further.) Will this bite me in the backside when I’m famous? I’ve recently established a foolproof benchmark of self-evaluation.

It’s been eight years since I moved to Germany. I’m officially German now. As time passes I am beginning to realize the possibility that I might need to move there for my elderly parents, knowing it isn’t going to be one bit easy — I look around for examples of people who have moved back. I only know those who talk about it. Few have the courage, means, and most importantly, both. Why does anybody want to move back?

Spectacular Netflix Series on True Nonviolent Crimes

No blood, just corporate crimes and “catch-me-if-you-can”s — Netflix is hands-down the best streaming service there is. The quality of their interface, the shows they curate, their originals — everything made me fall in love with the platform. The Netflix design and interface make Amazon Prime Video feel like someone’s disorganized personal video library. I personally find it…

Are you considering this keyboard? No. Don’t. My fingers ALWAYS land on the wrong keys. — After being spoilt by the trackball mouse, I became a connoisseur of ergonomic work devices. I got VESA handles for my monitors, a vertical mouse and another trackball mouse, and ofcourse, the Logitech ergo k.860. I absolutely love all of them except the keyboard. …
