"Some days make our lives all the more worthwhile
They etch on our hearts, some warm memories and some precious Smiles"
7th Feb morn was truly special for me, I woke up to a
special invite to the IndiBlogger #BergerXP Meet in Mumbai which meant a
special fun-filled afternoon with all my lovely co-bloggers I have been
reading, interacting and getting inspired from in the virtual world. I really
looked forward to this one to meet so many of those priceless gems and the
IndiBlogger Team Members who are known for their awesomeness, warmth and
impeccable sense of humour, for the first time. Thus, I immediately accepted
the invite even if that meant travelling all the way from Pune and I am so glad
I did.
I was also excited to know more about the Berger Express Painting as my new home is about to get ready and as a techie with over a decade of experience in new product development, my hunger to apprise myself of the latest technologies no matter to which field they belong, is insatiable. May be I can take home some real good knowhow to paint our home sweet home all the more aesthetically wonderful.
I reached the venue- Vivanta by Taj in Mumbai, a little before time thanks to hubby
dear who drove me all the way from Pune and even decided to babysit my little
sonny. What followed were moments of ecstatic joy, meeting blogger buddies,
taking innumerable pics and selfies,some candid heart to heart Tete-a-tete.
It didn't feel like I met them for the first time. I also loved how the meet
and greet and lunch was left open for all of us to discover everyone whichever
way we wished. The bonhomie at the event was contagious and I secretly already
loved being a part of it.
Post lunch as we settled down on our tables, Anoop took over
the mike with a real sweet smile and welcomed us and I knew it was Anoop as I
have seen his pictures and read about him innumerable times across so many
blogposts of Indimeets and events. Spontaneous truly he was and he made us warm
up with his altered version of Musical Chair where we danced our way through
the chairs.
The fact that every time someone didn't find a chair he can click a selfie with,
always ready to help Nihaal, only spread more smiles and warmth and also set
the right mood to listen to Mr. Chandranath Bannerjee who is the Service Head
of Berger Express Painting, next.
I liked the way he apprised us of his technology
intellectually in an informal manner quickly striking a chord with our hearts
overflowing with so many queries. It was a pleasure knowing from him how
Express Painting is an Innovation which is here to stay. Not only does it
guarantee a safe, dust-free, quick, more even and long lasting painting process
for our precious abodes but also a more steady income to the painters who post
one time investment in the tools, also profit from its efficiency and reduced
clutter. He was spot on in helping us gain some thumb rules to calculate the
Painting cost and many more such nuances which made the discussion quite
interesting.
The idea of textured walls was already brewing in my head
for my new home, the #BergerXP Way and it stays with me till today as I browse
through the booklets given to us with the hamper at the end of the event. (My
little one has already chosen one for his room too).
The insight on the type of paints, when and where to use them and how heavy is
which one on pocket was enriching too. We satiated all our queries before we moved on.
After the Q&A, it was time to roll up our sleeves and
engage in some hands on experience in sanding and then soil ourselves in paints
and stainers to carve our masterpiece for the themed activity given. We
brainstormed over some coffee and cookies and had crazy fun giving a shape to
our thoughts on the canvas on the spirit of Mumbai.
I also owe a sincere note of gratitude to my lovely team members of Team “ShadesYantra” which comprised of 8 dynamic bloggers who had great experiences to share amidst crazy bursts of laughter.
We used the tips given by Mr. Chandranath while practically
explaining us about the paints and while we did all time I did take a sneak
peak at the Impressive Home Painting Tools exhibited at the venue.
During
the course of the discussions and activities I also learnt some other real
Praise-worthy facts about this technology:
1.
Express Painting is 40% faster than
traditional painting. Wow!
2.
It's no mess tools give sparkling long
lasting results
3.
It is find by trained painters for
efficient and better painting
4.
Most important! It keeps our house
dust-free through its cutting-edge vacuum suction-enabled sanding machines
5.
All tools are certified and there is
better coverage and smoothness guaranteed each time
6.
Hey and we get all this at no
additional cost!
The afternoon had been so much fun, I had no idea how the
time flew among such adorable friends and some real worthy hosts - the
IndiBlogger and Berger Teams who have weaved it so well for us. It was truly wonderful and hats off to Berger Team for the
soft and candid manner of their promotions with no false claims. We quickly
gathered to click some group snaps as a keepsake for the warm moments which I
am sure shall be etched on our hearts for a very long time.
A heartfelt
thanks my dearest IndiBlogger guys, you truly rock...and did I say, I look forward to meeting
you over and over again and get more techno surprises like Express Painting.
