Rajeev Asija, an electronics engineer from COE Pune, is an avid traveller, sports enthusiast, voracious reader, and an active blogger. He has spent more than 38 years in active corporate life in the IT industry, which allowed him to travel widely – India and abroad. Coupled with the childhood spent in Defence Cantonment areas with habitats rich in flora and fauna, his interest in travelling and exploring, and his love for nature were developed from his early years.
It was only a chance encounter with an ex-colleague from HCL that triggered the 15-day road trip from Delhi to the deep interiors of Ladakh in 2013. This became a precursor to more such trips to the Himalayan Region and led to the coming together of like-minded friends and forming a loosely knit ‘Bhraman’ (Bhraman is the Hindi word for Travel) group. The search for exotic travel experiences led the group to destinations like New Zealand, African jungles and the wilderness of Iceland.
The blogs that he wrote were hugely appreciated by his friends and family and this led to a natural progression into a full-blown book with an amazing narrative and captivating pictures.
He has a few technical publications too, the latest one about Building a Future-Ready Enterprise titled ‘Automation for the Future’, co-authored along with seven other Enterprise IT leaders, in 2021.
He resides in Noida; India and his wife is a Management Consultant. His two children – Kanika, married to Anay, and Tanay - are working with Tech companies in the US. He enjoys travelling the world at every opportunity, more so if it is an exotic destination with unique experiences and terrain on offer. He aspires to tick off Antarctica, Alaska and the Trans-Siberian train journey, among others, from his bucket list.
