About Me

My photo
Priya Anand
I am a writer, poet, sketcher, trekker, amateur violin player and development consultant. A jack of all trades and a master of some. I have been on nine treks in India, Nepal, Bhutan and while that does not make me an authority on the subject, I can now say that I am a seasoned amateur who has a few insights to offer. I have been trekking and blogging for several years now and hope to offer a interesting cocktail of tips, stories, and personal experiences to share with my readers.
