About Me-Pranav
Here’s everything you might want to know about me.
How do I get started? Well, I could begin by telling you about my degree in engineering or my passion for building SaaS applications. Maybe I could mention that I’m a software developer, a writer, or someone who finds clarity in late-night chai shop conversations. But does any of that truly define me? I don’t think so.
I’m someone who thinks too much, talks even more, and writes like my life depends on it — because sometimes, it feels like it does. Writing isn’t just something I do; it’s how I make sense of the chaos inside my head and the even bigger chaos outside of it.
Like this one time, I spilled coffee on my laptop mid-code. It was chaos. I panicked, dried it as best I could, and somehow managed to debug the program before the laptop gave up on me completely. Moments like that make me wonder if writing and coding are less about skill and more about sheer persistence (and maybe a little luck).
I’m 21 — at least, that’s what my ID says. But age feels irrelevant when your mind is constantly racing with ideas, plans, and dreams that refuse to sit still. I’m always curious, always questioning, and always ready for the next big idea to hit me — even if it’s at 2 AM when I should probably be sleeping (I know, I know — I’m a bit of a night owl, or maybe just an insomniac).
I live in Kerala — God’s Own Country, as they call it. It’s the kind of place where time slows down, where palm trees dance in the wind, and where sunsets feel like they were painted just for you. But here’s the funny part: despite living in one of the most beautiful places on Earth, I rarely explore it. My friends think it’s hilarious — I think it’s ironic. Instead, I’m more likely to be found at a chai shop, sipping tea and solving the world’s problems with my friends. Did you know chai shops here double as therapy sessions? All it takes is one cup of steaming tea and some good banter to feel like the world makes sense again.
Maybe it’s the same reason I love books and coding. Just like those chai shop conversations, books offer a sense of escape and clarity, while coding challenges my mind to think differently. When I’m not writing (or talking — did I mention I talk a lot?), you’ll probably find me curled up with a book in hand, escaping into worlds created by someone else’s words. I’m a huge fan of spending time in libraries, surrounded by silence and stories that never end. And then, of course, there’s coding. It’s like a puzzle — solving it feels like finding a hidden treasure. I lose myself in lines of code, and suddenly, hours have passed. Though, to be honest, sometimes I feel like the code is smarter than me. I try coding to feel smart, but often it’s the other way around.
Back when I was studying engineering, I never imagined that coding would become such a big part of my life. It started as a challenge to feel smart, but now it’s become a passion I keep chasing. Engineering laid the foundation, but coding became the canvas where I could create and explore. It’s a bit like everything else in life: the more you work at it, the more it throws curveballs at you — but it’s that challenge that keeps me coming back for more.
I also love to walk. It’s something about the rhythm of my feet hitting the ground, the peace of the night, and the conversations I have with my friends during our nightly walks. We usually cover about 6 km, but here’s the funny part: we don’t even check how far we’ve walked until we pull out the mobile app to see the distance. It’s like time and distance don’t matter when you’re caught up in a good chat. Walking at night feels like the world is paused, giving me space to catch up with myself.
Sometimes, I love to be alone, especially when my mind drifts back to memories of the past — moments of love, mistakes, and lessons learned. My love story? Let’s just say it’s like one of those books where the ending is open to interpretation. When someone shares their love story, it often reminds me of mine. But I won’t dive into that now; it’s something I prefer to keep to myself. Instead, I focus on the present, like spending time with my cat, who insists on being with me all the time. It’s funny — no matter what I’m doing, she’s there, always curious about what I’m up to. And now, she has two little kittens of her own, adding even more life to my days.
Lately, I’ve been really focused on achieving financial freedom. It’s become a personal mission, not just as a means to an end but as a way to create a life where I can truly embrace my passions. Financial freedom, to me, isn’t about wealth for its own sake; it’s about choice — the choice to spend my time writing, coding, walking, or simply being present with the people and things I love. I’ve been working on building my personal brand, exploring ways to start my own business, and turning my creativity into meaningful income streams. It’s not easy, but the journey is teaching me patience, resilience, and the value of persistence.
As I think about all these pieces of my life — writing, coding, walking, reflecting, dreaming — I realize they all come back to one thing: connection. Connection with myself, with others, and with the world around me. Life is messy, unpredictable, and sometimes overwhelming, but it’s in that messiness that I’ve found my voice and my purpose.
So, who am I? Honestly, I’m still figuring that out. But for now, I’m someone who loves words, loves people, loves cats, and believes that life’s imperfections are what make it beautiful. What about you? How do you embrace the beautiful chaos of your own story?
