Help find Prathiba from Darwin

Postby paul8 » Thu 10 Sep, 2015 2:59 am

If you recognise Prathiba who lives in Darwin, please ask her to contact me.

Reason: I met her at Mt Sonder summit (West Macdonnell National Park, NT) in July this year, 2015. Promised to send her photos taken at the summit and also give her details on how to climb Mt Zeil. Unfortunately I lost her email address. So now, hoping one of you may recognize her :-)

The Mt Sonder climb is in my blog http://mntviews.blogspot.com.au/2015/07/mt-sonder-nt-australia.html
In there, her photos are in Photo #33 and Photo #35.
The attached photo is her taken at the summit of Mt Sonder.

Why did you not exchange details so she could contact you :?:

Moondog55 - yes, I'll try Facebook and Twitter
Corvus - in retrospect, I should have given her my contact details. But since she had given me her email address, and so at the time, I thought that was sufficient :(

What is the incorrect address you have? Any clues as to a surname?

I see that a Prathiba Subramaniam competed in the Run Larapinta ultramarathon on 12th June 2015. Is that any help perhaps?

I simply don't have her email address anymore :(
I wrote it down (and other info) as a txt file in my phone. But when I returned to the campsite, the txt file wasn't there ... seems that it wasn't saved or wasn't saved properly :(
As to her name ... this is all I have:

I enjoy a challenge and it is amazing what Google can turn up when fed the right search terms. Paul now has Parthiba's mobile phone number so all he has to do is give her a call :D

Yes, indeed. Privacy is almost non-existent if people have just a little net exposure. Even with pseudo-names, the email gives it away. Then there's the bank/company/govt department's security reference question - DOB, one that's readily obtained on many people's FB account.
