Gauri is a lover of words and collector of life-lemons. She has a special recipe for making sweet-and-sour lemonade too — which is a useful thing to know considering that she gets drained easily. Naps, tea, book, talk and book-talk, music and movies help her recharge.
Gauri is based in Assam, India and is a Zoology student with a minor in Biotechnology. She is passionate about all things living and the healing power of words.

🌻I have grown as a person. I have a different outlook towards life as a 21 yo than as a 16 yo. But different doesn’t mean bad. My words from back then portray my priorities from when I was younger. There is no reason to cringe or damn my words as childish and immature.
Instead, it is wiser to keep gathering new experiences and most importantly, to KEEP WRITING.
A Heavenly Mess! The Novella I wrote as a 13-year old.
🌻I’m happy to read it now. It’s not the best work that has ever come out of me but it is certainly the most innocent and hilarious…well other than some parts of Surbhi From The Sidelines.
