Mini bio
How it started.
Before travel became her work, Shramona photographed everyday scenes on her Mumbai commute and wrote about what she saw. In her Amrutam interview, she described feeling trapped by office life and leaving to explore. Her grandmother’s stories first gave her a love of storytelling.
Finding her audience.
Her mountain photographs, travel diaries and reflections built an audience around @mishti.and.meat. By September 2019, YourStory featured her among six women inspiring its readers’ travel plans and reported 104,000 Instagram followers. That year, TEDx Talks published her talk, How to travel like a dreamer, about choosing travel and the experiences she found along the way.
The other side of the camera.
At Amrapali Boutique, she models sarees, photographs jewellery and helps her mother Jaya source and curate textiles around India. Her creative work brings together travel, photography and an interest in the people behind what she sees.
Stories close to everyday life.
Her travel work also makes room for local food and music. A reel about a Kerala tea shop’s coconut barter system drew NDTV Food coverage, while Indulge featured her video of a Meghalaya band playing My Heart Will Go On.
