Welcome to the world of Travels and tales!

Oh, hellloo there! So you are curios about who am I? Am glad, am glad!

I am someone who has fallen apart more than once and still showed up with a smile that convinced the world I was doing just fine.

I am made of contradictions.
Soft, yet unapologetically firm.
Independent, yet deeply human in my need for connection.
Grounded in logic, but ruled by emotion when it truly matters.

I carry grief gracefully. Some days it sits heavy, some days it fuels me.
I have loved deeply, trusted fiercely, and learned often the hard way that self-respect must come before attachment.

I am someone who stopped chasing.
Not people. Not validation. Not timelines that don’t belong to me.
I am someone who is learning to stand still and let what’s meant for me arrive without force.

I believe in growth, not perfection.
In kindness, even when empathy runs out.
In discipline, movement, and showing up for myself even on the days I don’t feel strong.

I am someone who builds ideas, routines, futures.
Someone who finds beauty in humanity and freedom in authenticity.
Someone who knows that healing isn’t linear, but it is worth it.

I am not who I used to be.
And I am not fully who I’m becoming yet.
But I am deeply, unmistakably me and for the first time, that feels enough.

You read all of that? Then you definitely know who I am 😊 But in an objective sense, I am Sreeja Gadhiraju, a Science Manager at the best university in Europe, a solo traveller who is lucky enough to say that she has been to 39 countries, an author, a fitness enthusiast, a woman in her thirties who was once diagnosed with Borderline Personality Disorder, and above all… a simple human who finds her happiness in tiny little things and believes that life is nothing but an exchange of energy between the universe and oneself.
