Hi, I’m Aditi. I’m an Indian woman who once swapped heartbreak for a backpack and never really looked back.
Since 2013, travel has been my quiet rebellion: from teaching in tiny Vietnamese villages and wandering through the backstreets of Bali, to chasing sunsets in Laos and losing my heart somewhere in the mountains of northern Thailand.
Now, I live in Pak Chong, a small town in Thailand where I teach English, write stories, and plan my next slow escape over endless cups of coffee.
The Grounded Hippie is where I share the unfiltered bits. The journeys, the stumbles, and the comebacks are all here to remind you that it is never too late to begin again.
