Also in case you're wondering, I visited Lakshadweep between 11th and 14th October.

Hello from Europe! I'm on a one month long solo trip in Europe, and after spending 5 days in Paris, I took the Thalys fast train that goes from Paris to Amsterdam and headed to the Netherlands. I spent my morning soaking in Paris one last time; booked a photo walking tour for myself and got some nice photos with the Eiffel Tower and then headed to the train station to go from Paris to Eindhoven. Had to switch trains twice and my Eurail pass really came in handy! Had the most amazing time in Paris and really hope I get to be back soon in this beautiful city.

Bonjour from Paris! I'm on a one month long solo trip in Europe, and I'm starting my solo trip with Paris in France! I loved Paris so much that I decided to extend my stay there and spent an extra day in Paris walking around and exploring Montmartre, the most artsy and charming neighborhood in Paris! I visited Sacre-coeur, the cute lanes of Montmartre, checked out some Instagrammable spots in Paris, ate at Pink Mamma, and overall had a great last day in this city of love!

Hello everyone from Boston! I’ve been in Boston for the past three weeks just chilling with my brother, working and basically living the digital nomad life. I just wanted to film a chatty video catching up with you guys so here’s a typical day in the life of a digital nomad living in Boston, and I answer your questions throughout the day!

Hello from sunny Miami! I went on a fun weekend trip to Miami with my girl friends and we had an absolute blast. Even though the weather wasn’t the best, we spent our weekend in Miami chilling on Miami beach, exploring Little Havana, eating good food, and checking out Bayside Miami.

I often get asked how I edit my travel vlogs, and what my typical process is when it comes to editing travel videos, so in this video, I break down my step by step process of editing travel videos for YouTube. I edit my travel vlogs on Final Cut Pro X on my M1 MacBook Pro. I explain how I edit, organize my footage, my process of finding music, using titles and transitions, and color correction. Even though I edit on Final Cut Pro X, most of the tricks and techniques can be used on other softwares like iMovie, Filmora and Premiere Pro, so I hope this editing tutorial is useful!

I spent a day exploring Vatican City, the smallest country in the world. I visited St. Peter's Square, St. Peter’s Basilica, the Vatican Museums, Sistine Chapel, and also spent the evening exploring parts of Rome we hadn’t already checked out like Trevi Fountain, the Spanish Steps, and the neighborhood of Trastevere. We also ate some delicious Italian food along the way, and had an incredible day exploring the Vatican City!

Hello from Rome, Italy! I visited Rome with a couple of my friends back in December and here’s how we spent 24 hours in Rome. Among other things, we visited the Colosseum, the Roman Forum, the Pantheon, Piazza Navona, Castle Saint Angelo, ate a lot of delicious Italian food (read pasta), had amazing wine, and even tried gelato (when in Rome, am I right)? Hope you enjoy this travel vlog from Rome!

After unexpectedly spending almost two years at my parents’ place in Vellore, I finally decided to redo my room there just to change things up a bit, and also make it more filming-friendly. So here’s my updated room tour video of my room in Vellore. I mostly just used the stuff I already had from my apartment in Mumbai, so didn’t end up buying too much stuff. Hope you enjoy this room tour video :)

I spent four days in Switzerland back in December and here's a vlog of me exploring Switzerland. I originally had plans to spend a longer time in the country and do a lot more things, but due to the restrictions back then, I could only spend four days in Switzerland. Nevertheless, I had such an amazing time exploring Switzerland. Switzerland has always been a dream country for me to visit and it was beyond beautiful! I walked around the beautiful lanes of Zurich, took a train from Zurich to Zermatt where I witnessed some stunning snowy views of the Swiss Alps and the magnificent Matterhorn, took the Gornergrat Bahn to see the Matterhorn up close, went to Lausanne, Montreux, Cailler chocolate factory, and Gruyere to try out some delicious Swiss chocolate and fondue! It was incredible traveling solo in Switzerland

On my first trip to Germany back in February, I decided to explore the Black Forest region and take a snowboarding lesson. This was my first ever time snowboarding, and what better place to do it than in the beautiful Black Forest region? In this video, I visited my friend in Freiburg in Germany, and you'll see me snowboarding in Feldberg Black Forest, walking around the beautiful town of Titisee, and checking out the Keidel thermal bath in Freiburg im Breisgau. I had such a great time visiting Germany, and even though this was a short trip, I hope to be back in Germany again someday!

This is my first time in Germany! I explored the fairy tale town of Freiburg and loved every bit of it! Freiburg I’m Breisgau is a two hour train ride from Zurich and it lies in the Black Forest region of Germany, so there’s lots to see around Freiburg. In this video, I just walked around the old town of Freiburg which was super quaint, checked out the farmer’s market, walked up the bridge on the station, tried some beer, and tried the famous black forest cake :D One of the best things about Freiburg im Breisgau is that it's a green and sustainable city. In the next vlog, you’ll see me learn snow boarding and visiting a thermal bath in Freiburg :) Hope I get to visit Germany and Freiburg again someday!

Back again traveling in the beautiful country of Switzerland, and in this video, I explore Zurich, the Rhine Falls, check out some scenic views on Swiss trains, and the best sledding experience in Bergün in the Graubünden region of Switzerland! I traveled to Switzerland in the month of February. Also, I often get asked for suggestions for good cards to use while traveling and the Niyo Global Card is a great choice. As mentioned in the video, it has a zero forex markup, and you can easily load INR to this card and spend in 100+ currencies in over 150+ countries around the world. It also has an easy-to-use app that has features like the ATM locator which come in handy while traveling.

In this vlog, I explore a village around Interlaken called Bönigen, which is by Lake Brienz, take a train to go to Zermatt (my second time there!), then take the Glacier Express to head to St. Moritz and explore a bit of St. Moritz. Hope you enjoy watching this vlog!

My second time skydiving and what better spot than Interlaken Switzerland, where I did skydiving in the middle of the beautiful Swiss Alps! In this video, I go from Zurich to Interlaken by train, explore the town of Interlaken which lies between two lakes, and the highlight of my trip - skydiving in Interlaken! I never imagined I’d go skydiving twice, that too in Switzerland on a solo trip, and in the winter, but it was one of the most beautiful experiences of my life! If you’re planning a trip to Switzerland and specifically to Interlaken, definitely experience skydiving in Interlaken!

Ended my trip to Switzerland with a day trip to Lucerne and Mount Rigi from Zurich! The top of Rigi was the most wind I’ve ever experienced in life 😅 but overall, it turned out to be such a spectacular day with some stunning views. I did a day trip to Mount Rigi from Zurich (in February 2022) where I went on top of Rigi Kulm, hiked a bit in the snow, took a beautiful train down to Vitznau by Lake Lucerne from where I took a boat to Lucerne and explored the city by night! Also, I was actually with a friend of mine who was too shy to be on camera but in case you were wondering who took some of my shots, it was him! We had some delicious raclette at night, and let’s just say it’s become one of my favourite dishes! :D Hope you enjoy this vlog from Switzerland’s most beautiful city - Lucerne :)

If you’re looking to apply for a Schengen visa (tourist visa for Europe), then this video covers everything you need to know as an Indian applying for a Schengen visa in 2022. I cover what the Schengen visa is, different types of Schengen visa, how and where to apply, the list of documents you need to submit to get your visa, the visa fee for the Schengen visa, and I’ve also tried to answer some of the questions you guys sent me on Instagram and some general tips for the Schengen visa. This is my fourth time applying for a Schengen visa in four years, so hopefully, this information I’ve shared based on my experience with VFS and the Schengen visa is useful and if you have any more questions, let me know in the comments!

Spent a super chill week in New York City with my brother and best friend and had the most fun week! This was actually my third time in New York so I’d already done the usual sightseeing stuff, so we were mostly chilling. We ate some incredible food (including Indian food!), explored Brooklyn, watched a show on Broadway, went to Central Park at night, and went to a LOT of jazz shows :D Hope you enjoy this raw and chill vlog from NYC, and don’t miss the bloopers in the end!

I went on a 5-night cruise vacation from Chennai to Vizag to Pondicherry and back with my entire family & here's what my experience on Cordelia Cruises was like! It's so cool to see a premium cruise in India, and we had a great time enjoying all the good food, the shows, the view of the ocean and the great music. We sailed on The Empress by Cordelia Cruises, which is now on the east coast of India sailing between Chennai, Vizag and Pondicherry. In this vlog, I give you a tour of my room in the cruise, show you what Cordelia Cruise is like from inside, the cost of Cordelia Cruise, how to book, things to keep in mind and what's included in the cruise package. All in all, I think this cruise was great for a perfect family holiday!
