Follow your Passion and Travel to a new place every 3-4 months and Eat, Travel, Live and REPEAT. That’s my mantra to live a life without regrets.

This is a blog about my travel escapades, food trail stories and some budget travel tips for all those who have been bitten by the travel bug.

After relocating to Delhi in 2016, I Re – Discovered the travel bug within me and the realised that I had become a hardcore foodie. Moving to Delhi basically catapulted my travel escapades and I started this blog back in April 2016, when sitting in my office cubicle one day thinking about my, then recent trip to Mussoorie, a hill station in the state of Uttarakhand in India.

I started this blog back in 2016, with the sole purpose of sharing my views and some tips and recommendations, about the different destinations I travels to and the unique experiences I have, to inspire others to travel as well. I has been blogging for over 3 years now, and in order to get a better understanding of the tourism industry, I pursued my MSc in International Tourism and Hospitality Management, from one of the elite universities in the UK, and graduated First Class in October 2019.

I prefers being outdoors surrounded by nature, than being in the city. I love the Himalayas, and also started the High On Himalayas community on Instagram back in 2017, which reaching a good 25k+ loyal followers on Instagram. And one day, I lost access, just like that. All the effort and time put in for 2 years, just went down the drain. It was a shattering moment.

However, the community is back on Instagram under the name High on Himalayas Official, and I launched the website too.

My love for being surrounded by nature took me to Maldives, back in January 2017, where I found my love for Scuba Diving and got my Open Water Certification, but, now in 2020 I am a SSI certified Dive Master.

My passion for travel and food has garnered many readers and followers on these websites, over the past few years.
