My life has been a bit like an “Introvert’s Journey in An Extrovert’s World”. Back in 2019, when I was just 20, I used to shy away from conversations and interactions. College and chill was the only thing I used to do, just like another 20-year-old college student. But one day, something clicked, and I decided to take a leap of faith during my university days by going on a Cultural Exchange trip to Europe. Completely unknown in a completely different country, and that too for the first time ever, I decided to be away from my family for almost 6-7 weeks.

That experience changed everything for me. I discovered the incredible power of human connection and cultural exchange. It was like opening a door to a whole new world of personal growth unforgettable experiences, and connections that I would cherish for the rest of my life. From there, I couldn’t get enough. I embarked on more cultural exchanges to places like the Czech Republic, Poland, Turkey, Sri Lanka, Russia, Nepal, and more, exploring over 18 countries by the time I turned 22.

Fast forward to now—I’m 24, a proud Maharashtrian, Indian, and a passionate traveller. But there’s something else that lights up my soul: Marathi Theatre. Since childhood, I’ve always loved watching new Marathi plays, watching them with my family and falling in love with the art form. It got me thinking—how could I contribute to the growth of Marathi theatre?

And that’s when the idea for VeryFirstTale was born.

After completing my Bachelor’s and MBA from NMIMS Navi Mumbai in the year 2022, at the age of 23, my beautiful travel experiences and the impact of the same on my life fueled my desire to share my memories, my learnings and my insights with you all, inspiring me to launch my own travel and entertainment blog – VeryFirstTale.

Here, I write blogs based on my personal experiences, all straight from my heart. Having travelled to 21 countries, you can find beautiful Travel Tips and Guides for your next adventures. Along with this, as a fan of Marathi Drama & theatre, you can also find various Marathi Natak Review blogs.
