Arefa Tehsin

Arefa Tehsin spent her childhood treading the Aravalli jungles with her naturalist father. As a child, she was often found trying to catch a snake or spin a yarn. She grew up to be a storyteller and was appointed the honorary wildlife warden of Udaipur for a term. She is the author of several fiction and non-fiction books, and writes columns and articles for various dailies and magazines. A dreamer as well as a rationalist, she is a serial traveller who dreams of an endless journey—starting with Planet Earth. (Irrational for a rationalist? Ask her companion, Aditya!)
