About me

[edit]

Welcome to my user page on Wikivoyage. Thanks for dropping by. User Arunram in English Wikipedia. I am based in Bangalore. I love travelling and believe that Wikivoyage has huge potential as a project and is a great addition to the Wikimedia project portfolio.

From my brief stay at Wikivoyage, I see a lot of potential to share community practices between Wikipedia and Wikivoyage.

Please leave me a note on my talk page. I would be glad to hear from you.
