    Merry Christmas & Happy New Year 2022

    On behalf of my family, our staff, volunteers & well-wishers, Let me wish you a very happy Christmas & prosperous new year 2022. Here is a small holiday card from Chandoo.org HQ.

    About this year’s card: We went to the beautiful Queenstown this October to celebrate my 40th (XL Birthday!!!) and took this picture just before sunset. The kids are now taller than mum and as tall as me. We will be taking family pictures sitting down from now on, so that they don’t look like giants.
