The Best Authentic Bloggers From India
Ajay Jain, Kunzum
Ajay Jain
initially started as a tech blogger but soon realised that what he really
wanted to do was travel. He set off on a journey around the world, documenting
his incredible experiences and sharing handy tips he picked up during his
expeditions. Jain then rented a small space at Hauz Khas Village in New Delhi
to set up a gallery for his travel photographs. This soon turned into Kunzum,
the city’s first travel cafe. It may have started as a blog but Kunzum has now
become a trusted travel brand today

blog, Labnol. He provides step-by-step guides about using different software
and mobile applications, explaining them in a clear and concise manner. Apart

like Mail Merge for Gmail.
Rukmini Ray Kadam, Trumatter
Trumatter is
an interior design blog started by Rukmini Ray Kadam in 2009. Kadam lives in a
modest but beautifully decorated flat in Mumbai with her husband. Her posts,
such as “Fitting a Home Office in Our Tiny 110 Sq ft. Bedroom”, are very
relatable to most readers, who’re struggling for ideas for their own small
apartments in the city. Kadam’s decor and DIY ideas are easy and affordable,
which is why her blog has become so popular. She has won several blogging
awards and has been featured in some of the most renowned publications in the
country.
