Samudraki is coming from the origins of the Hindi language 'Samudra' meaning ocean. My name means 'Of the Ocean', and since I wanted to stick to my roots for this blog I came up with this name.

I hope you're as excited as I am to see my journey as an independent girl weaving her way through university. Don't forget to subcribe to my blog as well as my YouTube Channel and become a part of my internet family! Until next time, Samudraki.
