I completed my bachelor’s in my hometown and in 2014 I moved to Bangalore for work. It was then my journey as a traveler began as I started exploring the nearby places. I believe I was intrigued by my father as he has always been very fond of traveling. In 2015, I came back to New Delhi and things became a bit easy since I started living in my home. After that, I traveled across India and then took my first international trip to Thailand. On my second trip, I covered Europe and it was such an exhilarating experience. It felt like a dream when I saw The Eiffel tower for the first time. In 2019, I planned to go to Spain with one of my friends. But as luck had been, he canceled the trip due to some emergency and I had to go solo. I loved their food and culture, interacting with people from the locality. Even though the trip was amazing as a whole. It struck me then, that I should start creating content on Instagram and share my experience with people. It grew popular with time and I got impressive responses from people. The most thrilling experience was sky diving in Dubai and the funniest part was that I wasn’t scared, even a bit to jump off maybe because I was so set on the fact that I had to do this.
Now traveling has become a part of me. If I don’t travel once in two months, I kind of become restless. With a full-time Job, it becomes a bit tricky but then it gets managed. Another thing about me, apart from being a traveler, is I am a fitness enthusiast. I began working out in my school days but due to studies, it wasn’t regular. So, once I started working, things fell into their places and I have been going to the gym regularly with proper and adequate diet plans. I have mentioned that in my blogs as I wanted to motivate people, and everything is achievable with work-life balance. I usually go to the gym after office hours and it is my way to burn out my work-stress. I believe that at end of the day it is your dedication that counts, and I am a normal IT guy so if I can do it then others can also. Both the things, traveling and being a fitness enthusiast keep my life interesting. But on the other hand, I like my IT job too and it was never like I am only doing it for money. And hence, work-life balance is a must.
In the future, responsibilities with family and work are going to increase, of course. I hope I continue to do the things I love and get away to manage everything.
