Our 
Story

Six people, five cities, one frustration that started it all...

Who We Are:

A small group of NRIs, students, and young professionals spread across Dubai, Mumbai, Hyderabad, Leiden, and Aachen. We are the people actually doing the things we write about: moving on Gulf visas, investing our first real salaries, studying abroad, and figuring out the paperwork nobody explains. Not consultants, not a faceless content mill. Just people documenting the journey honestly.

What We Do:

We write practical, first-hand guides on money, visas, education, travel, and building a life across India and the Gulf. Every piece comes with real numbers, real documents, and the mistakes left in. No AI slop, no get-rich-quick pitches, no fluff. If it is not worth sending to a friend about to make the same decision, we do not publish it.

The Team

Who We Are

D. Figg

Dubai, UAE

I live out of Dubai and cover most of what touches money, cars, and Gulf life. Finance analyst by day, I also consult for a couple of supercar showrooms and write for Jalopnik and SlashGear. If it involves a visa run, a spread on gold, or a car I can't quite afford yet, I've probably already been through it.

Keshav Bhati

Den Haag, Netherlands

I study International Relations at The Hague, Leiden, and write the pieces that explain why some far-off policy decision is about to hit your wallet. I moved from Guwahati to the Netherlands, so I cover the student-in-Europe route from the inside: rent, residence permits, and the culture shock nobody warns you about.

Jaskeerat Singh

Aachen, Germany

I'm doing Electronic Engineering at RWTH Aachen and handle the tech side: computing, coding, and surviving as an Indian student at a serious German university. I write the stuff I wish someone had explained to me before I arrived. And yes, I really do mean the "No Calls."

Yuvraj Sureka

Hyderabad, India

Markets and trading are my thing. I work in equity research and write the hands-on side of investing for people who are just getting started. I went from Dibrugarh to Hyderabad, and somewhere along the way I got comfortable reading a balance sheet before breakfast.

Gaurav Beria

Mumbai, India

I write about investing and the underrated art of presenting yourself well: CVs, interviews, walking into a room like you belong. I work in research, grew up in Guwahati, and I'm usually the most relaxed person in the group photo.

Jeevesh Agarwal

Mumbai, India

I'm the numbers guy, with a CFA on the way. As an investment analyst I break down funds, valuation, and how to build an investing system that actually survives real life. From Dibrugarh, now in Mumbai, and thoroughly allergic to get-rich-quick nonsense.
