Miniaturised Travel Stories is an evocative voyage through my personal collection of handcrafted treasures gathered from my journeys across India and the world. Comprising 20 stories, each chapter weaves together rich cultural heritage, intricate craftsmanship, and the deeply personal reasons behind each purchase. From the museum of Tagore to the tombs of Egyptian mummies, I delve into the craftsmanship stories of each travel souvenir, sharing the tales of their origin, heritage, legends and the artisans who pour their souls into every piece. I have put into words my travel memories, the connections with the people and places behind the souvenirs I brought home.
