Teja Lele is a freelance editor who loves to write. She trained as an architect, only to find that her love for words outweighed that for architectural drawings. She loves to read, watch crime shows, and believes the best stories are found between the pages of a passport. Her work has appeared in BBC Travel, South China Morning Post, National News, Atlas Obscura, Mint Lounge, The New Indian Express, The Hindu, Outlook Traveller, YourStory, and The Hindustan Times.
