Julie Kagti

Julie Kagti spent her childhood in the tea plantations of Assam, embedded in the semi-tropical forests of the Brahmaputra valley. She still fondly remembers her holidays while growing up, accompanying her father through the states of the Northeast. These travels inspired her imagination and taught her just how vital it was to experience new cultures while young. When not travelling, Julie spent much time with her grandmother learning to weave. This sparked her career path for the next twenty-five years: entrepreneur, designer, and teacher in the textile industry. She still weaves customised handwoven tapestries and participates in art exhibitions. Now a wife and mother of two, Julie has returned to her roots. She utilizes her natural understanding and affection for the languages and customs of the region to guide travellers along these less-travelled paths. She is committed to ensuring that travel positively impacts the local communities and supports the rural economy. Julie organizes cultural and walking tours primarily in the northeast of India through her company, Curtain Call Adventures, which was established in 2017.
