Hey, I am Ruby !! Welcome to my blog “The mountain mums“!!! Born and raised in the little hamlet called Darjeeling in the foothills of the Himalayas , one thing I am very passionate about is my love for the mountains and the simple mountain life.

Mom to a spirited 3 year old, Riyon and wife to a lovely man, Vincent.  After completing my engineering from Sikkim Manipal Institute of Technology in 2007, I moved to the IT Hub of India, Bangalore, to pursue my career in technology. Been living in Bangalore ever since. Although I love Bangalore, I sometimes do miss the the clean green air of my hometown. 

As my kid is growing older in the city away from home I am realizing how sustainable our “Darjeeling” lifestyle is. I want to showcase that same simple way of life to my kid and hopefully to the world. “The mountain mums” is my humble endeavor to rediscover that connect with my roots and hopefully archive the authentic flavor of hills for future generations to relish and appreciate in the form of this blog.

My aim is to share lots of random bits of our life from Darjeeling mainly focused on sustainable living from a mother’s point of view.  I am so glad you are here because now I get to take you along with me on this awesome journey into our simple life and rich culture and probably inspire you to make choices for a better tomorrow.  I sincerely hope that you will learn something new and enjoy being a part of our community we so cherish.

Love,

Ruby
