About

From writing code to collecting stories across cities and cultures. I’m Rishabh, currently based in New Jersey, USA. During the week, I navigate the corporate world, and on weekends, I chase new experiences.

Travel entered my life shortly after university, and it completely changed the way I saw the world. What started as curiosity (and necessity) soon became a sense of freedom and discovery. My first solo trip was to Vizag in January 2015, and since then, I’ve traveled and lived across different parts of India, especially the southern part, Mumbai, and NCR, before eventually making my way to the United States, where I’m now exploring NYC and everything around it.

This blog is my little corner on the internet to document those journeys, share experiences, and hopefully inspire others to step outside their routines and explore more. Some weekends, I’m perfectly happy being a couch potato with good food and Netflix. Other times, I’m out wandering through neighborhoods, discovering local culture, trying new food spots, and finding joy in the simple act of exploring, both the world around me and myself along the way.
