About me

Welcome to my world, a space where the thrill of untamed landscapes meets the warmth of vibrant cultures. I’m Jyoti Dhavale, a wanderer at heart, with my soul stitched together by the trails I’ve trekked, the rapids I’ve navigated, and the stories I’ve lived and shared. As a journalist and blogger, I’ve dedicated my life to unearthing the hidden gems of North East India, a region that pulsates with life, untold adventures, and culinary wonders.

My adventures have taken me to the rugged terrains of North East India, where each step is a narrative waiting to unfold. Imagine scaling the serene heights, where each breath of the crisp, mountain air writes a silent ode to the majesty of nature. Or picture the adrenaline rush of battling the ferocious currents of pristine rivers, a testament to the untamed spirit of adventure that courses through my veins. These experiences aren’t just travels; they’re a dialogue with the soul of the earth.

But what’s an adventure without the kaleidoscope of cultures that paint the North Eastern canvas? I’ve danced to the rhythmic beats of traditional festivals, each a vibrant thread in the fabric of this region’s rich cultural tapestry. These celebrations are a bridge to the heartbeats of the communities that host them, offering a glimpse into the profound depths of tradition and the exuberant embrace of modernity.

And oh, the culinary journeys! Durga Puja in North East India is not just a spiritual voyage; it’s a culinary festival that tantalizes the taste buds. From succulent fish curries that carry the whispers of the rivers to sweet desserts that narrate the tales of grandmothers’ kitchens, each dish is a discovery of flavors and stories. My explorations during this festivity have been feasts not just for the stomach, but for the soul.

The past is never far behind, with its remnants etched into the landscapes of North East India. From ancient ruins whispering the sagas of yesteryears to living cultures that continue to thrive, my explorations have been time travels. Each historical landmark tells a story, and I’ve been there, notebook in hand, eager to document and share these tales with the world.

Through this blog, I invite you to share in my explorations, to feel the pulse of North East India through my words and experiences. Whether you’re an adventurer seeking the thrill of the unknown, a culture enthusiast eager to soak in the festivities, a foodie craving for authentic flavors, or a history buff in search of stories from the past, there’s something here for you.
