The Rustic Tales

– A click to the memoir

About

Hey everyone!!

I am Swati K. Kurtkoti, and this is my expedition where I am trying to reconnect back to my roots. An academician by profession, a pharmacist by education and a seeker by nature, curiosity often landed me in accumulating stories about the experience of different people. A person dwelling in a small town, I always wondered how the raw, unpolished things often tend to remain unnoticed and forgotten. The worth of such things is however, beyond imagination. 

India, an amalgamation of art, culture, and modernization, has many such hidden things that often go unnoticed. What makes India an Incredible India is not just the sophisticated images that are highlighted but rather the simple life, the rich culture, the enormous art, and the belief of the people.

Be it eating at a makeshift roadside stall or climbing the highest peak of the world, every moment has a hidden story to tell. 

The Rustic Tales is all about the rustic stories of the untouched places of India. The people and food connected to it. The traditions and the modern-day India. The day to day lives of people as well as their sweet memories. Lastly how a common man lives his life in India.

If you have a passion for food, a strong sense of self, eagerness to do something new and the foremost connecting back to your roots then I guess The Rustic Tales is one of the right places to be. 

The Rustic Tales is my attempt to bring those stories to you all. Hope you enjoy the journey while realizing, relishing, and re-living the stories. Join me as I go around exploring from a small town to the metro cities of India
