Hi,

I am Chiranjeet Baruah. "Jeet" is easier. I am 55. I live in a small town in the very east of India. I am a businessman and an avid gardener.

About 6 years ago, some of my friends advised me to turn my hobby into a business. They said, earning from a hobby is the best livelihood. I agreed.

My Mom, however, who has passed away since, told me that turning a hobby into a business would be a sure way of driving all the fun out of it.

Since I was living well from my other works, I was wondering what to do.

And then, one day, my wife told me, that if I had an itch, I should scratch it before I die. Yes! I asked my nephew if he would like to join me in this venture and he agreed to.

So, we are now in the process of turning my hobby into a business, big enough to pay all our bills. Our bills are modest though.

Good that in the process 15 persons got employment, in a place where unemployment is rampant.

I like taking photographs, watching movies, reading and music. Chopin is my soul.

Our working motto : The people who work for us must have a good life.
