Poornima Jha grew up in Chennai, though her roots are from Darbhanga, Bihar. She lives in Nuremberg, Germany with her husband who is her biggest fan and supporter. She has a bachelor’s degree in Engineering and an Executive MBA from IIM Kozhikode. Alongside managing a team of embedded software programmers in her day job, she is a lifestyle blogger and a marathoner. She has travelled to several countries on adventures.

The blog was where she had been pouring the lessons from her lifestyle experiments so far. At work and outside, she yearns to be a serial skill-collector. She balances her free time by juggling between – running full marathons, cycling long-distances, dancing, swimming, playing badminton, stitching, painting and carpentry.
