"Life is a party, and I'm here to dance!"

Opening Oasis

Hey there, welcome to my little corner of the internet! I'm Thapa, and I'm stoked that you dropped by.
I'm a curious cosmic adventurer on a quest for knowledge and laughter with a serious passion for astrophysics. I've always been fascinated by the beauty of this cosmos. It's become a full-blown obsession, and I couldn't be happier!

When I'm not enagaged in understanding the Cosmic Celestial Sciences, you can usually find me engaged in Racket Athletics.
Feel free to explore around and get to know me better through my posts and stories in the social platforms (Please find me in Facebook & Instagram).
And hey, if you have any questions, want to chat, or simply want to geek out about PHYSICS..., hit me up! I'm always up for a good conversation and meeting new awesome people.
Chai Connoisseur...
Additionally, I am an ardent Chai (tea) and coffee lover. As R. K. Narayan puts it, a coffee (tea as well) is ought to be brown, neither black nor white. I could not agree more...

Work hard, but play harder...

From my perspective, "work hard but play harder" is not just a mantra, but a way of life. It signifies my unwavering dedication to my professional pursuits, pouring my heart and soul into achieving my goals. I firmly believe that hard work is the cornerstone of success and that putting in the effort is essential for personal growth and accomplishment.
