Author: Ambica Gulati

I pen true stories that touch hearts and open minds. I wear many hats: reporter, writer, editor, designer, videographer, photographer, blogger, podcaster. For 25 years, I've crafted impactful stories for well-known magazines in India such as Swagat, Outlook Traveller, Life Positive, and more. From tabloids to coffee table books, I love creating content that engages, educates and inspires. Every word, every image on my website, queenoftreasures.com, tells a unique story that I put my heart and soul into. My philosophy: When you flow like water, every rock is penetrable. Writing is serendipity.

Goodbye 2025! Woke up to this. 😷 The smog hung low over the trees this morning, hiding the sun and replacing the oxygen. This isn't just a foggy November day; it's a recurring, critical public health hazard across Delhi-NCR. Meetha meetha Moon 🌝.. ✨ What would we be without the spirit? The ether that sustains us on this beautiful path of life… Nature, the best teacher and healer. 🌿 🌊🦩 🌺 Happy Ganesh Chaturthi! 🌺 When the sky turned dark, clouds threw down water, and we drove through with all lights and indicators on... Once upon a time in Rajasthan… the ancestral call! 🎶 My Kodak Moments 📸
