About: I’m a travel enthusiast and an experienced India-based travel writer and storyteller who loves sharing stories about conscious travel, culture, people and communities. Through my work, I aim to uncover and share inspirational travel stories, bringing underrepresented stories and traditions to mainstream audiences.

I work as a senior storyteller and editorial co-lead at Postcard Travel Club, an India-based global travel media company that aims to build a community of conscious travellers. I'm glad to have my words in Lonely Planet, Namaste.ai - Air India Magazine, Planeterra, Outlook Traveller, GLP Films, Voyagers Voice Magazine and Life Lovers Magazine, among others. I've also written a book on Democracy and Responsible Tourism in India, launched at the New Delhi World Book Fair 2025, by the National Book Trust of India, Ministry of Education.

Some journeys change us forever, and I’ve dedicated my life to telling those stories. Beyond the words I write, I find joy in practising mindfulness, reading and writing poems, going for long walks, especially in the evenings and enjoying sunsets.

 


Interests: Travel writing, storytelling, culture & heritage, responsible tourism, slow travel, community-based tourism, spiritual travel, local crafts, nature-based experiences

PhD in Contemporary Travel Writing

 PhD in Contemporary Travel Writing Syddansk Universitet Writing Travel in the Twenty-First Century: Mobility and Authenticity in the Planetary Emergency Travel is older than human civilization itself. Migration, trade, tourism and pilgrimage, all are forms of human movement that have existed for millennia. Yet travel is no longer what it used to be. Slow travel, flight shame, sustainable travel, eco- and anti-tourism, staycation and microadventures are but some of many recent terms testifying to a growing awareness that mobility has become inextricably intertwined with planetary concerns, regardless of whether it is the short distance of a commute to work, or that of long-distance globetrotting. With 2024 likely proving to be the hottest year on record and tourists evacuated by boat from uncontrollable forest fires on Rhodes in 2023, all the while tech billionaires promise us trips to Mars and hotels on the moon (while others perish trying to reach the Titanic), we are also told t...

Literary Caen and the Channel Ports

Thursday morning, 27th July 2023. The research project on slow tourism for the Channel ports is still very much in Step 1, the Library Stage. The earliest step in our process methodology using the book for travel researchers. In the last few days, though, a literary connection with the city of Caen has begun to emerge. It's exciting enough to report here on Travel Writers Online. Using dialogue journaling a trustworthy link has been established with a fellow blogger, Claude at the blog Livres d'un jour . Claude had published a review of a detective novel, Canicule sanglante (2022) by Pierre Guinot-Delery (b.1949).  The title would translate as The Bloody Heatwave . The review starts like this: " The city of Caen is suffocating under the effect of a heat wave. One morning, the body of the vice-president of the chamber of commerce and business leader is found dead in front of the courthouse." That was enough to make me order a copy from Amazon. It's due to arri...
