| Introduction | I co-founded HomeStays Of India, the platform dedicated to connect the travellers to homestays in remote areas of India. I work with local people to help them augment their village life through sustained low impact eco-tourism. |
| Interests | Travel is what makes me come alive. In past few years I have been to remotest of the villages in India and lived with simple villagers, sailed on camel's back to the interiors of the Thar desert and spent nights in the open desert, went deep into the dense forests and experienced wild at its natural best, trekked up to high hills to get amazing views from up there, walked the streets of the cities of India to understand life. I have spent time with people from various tribes that include Mishing tribe of Majuli in Assam, Santal in Odisha, Tharu tribe near Dudhwa Tiger reserve, Gaddis of Himachal, Kalbelias in Pushkar Rajasthan, khasis in Meghalaya and many others. I wish to make this world a better place by educating and helping people travel responsibly and keep this world a beautiful place for the coming generations to cherish. |
