Krish Raghuram writes prose and poetry, and his primary focus in writing stems from an interest in history, science and at times, current events. He cites his grandmother and mother as primary influences for his love for writing. While writing is always in the background, he likes to travel by road in a rental car in the various countries he visits, and cites Africa as possessing the most beautiful countryside.
