When, where and how did you come into contact with the Hare Krishna Movement?

I always had an affinity towards Lord Krishna from childhood with B.R. Chopra's "Mahabharat" & Ramanand Sagar's "Shri Krishna" playing huge roles in amplifying that affinity. But after growing up when I came across a random ISKCON article I was really intrigued and it acted as the trigger-point for a whole new spiritual journey for me making me a staunch devotee of Krishna who is now on a beautiful journey of exploring the philosophy of life through the Lord's life. And thus I got anchored to the whole concept of ISKCON and its famous Hare Krishna Movement!
