Hi, I’m Swati - storyteller, history nerd, and your friendly footpath enthusiast.
After years of navigating boardrooms and buzzwords as a management consultant, I traded in my heels for sneakers and spreadsheets for stories. I’ve always believed that the best way to understand a city isn’t through a guidebook, but through its gossip, gardens, and gulleys - and that’s exactly what SWALK Trails is all about.
