She is an Advanced Cyber Security Consultant by profession and wanderlust by passion. She hails from the city of culture, Kolkata. Whenever Reetwika finds a breathing window from her demanding work life, she gears for the unknown. Travelling and photography keep her alive.
“Bengal brings to you mini India. You will find panoramic view of some of the world’s highest snow peaks, dense forest trails, endangered wildlife, river gorges, historic ruins, lost capitals of Afghan Sultanate, Bengal Nawabs and British India, temple towns, an array of pristine sea beaches and above all a top metro city life all in a radius of hardly 400 kilometres from Kolkata.”
Reetwika has received many accolades from India and abroad including ‘Padma Shri’ nomination, ‘Apolon Sirmiensis’ award from Serbia, ‘Kazi Nazrul Samman’ from Bangladesh, ‘Power is You’ title from USA, ‘Indian Awaz’ and ‘Swami Vivekananda Excellence Award’ from Government of India. She also features on the ‘Hall of Fame’ of Symbiosis International University as the most promising ‘Young Achiever’ in social category.
This is Reetwika’s 13th book and fourth in the ‘Travel Tales’ series. Many of these articles were earlier published in ‘Get Bengal’ web portal, approved by Tourism Ministry of Bengal.
