About

For a long time, I did what was expected. I went to IIT, joined McKinsey, ticked all the boxes. It wasn’t bad. It just wasn’t me. In less than two years, I quit my cushy job, co-founded a health startup and spent five years building it. And then one day, I walked away from that too. I gave up my apartment, packed my life into a backpack, and started living differently. For the last 5 years, I’ve been working remotely while slow travelling across India and beyond. Somewhere along the way, writing became how I made sense of it all. Today, I’m a solopreneur content creator exploring the intersection of: - Slow travel - Indie & remote work - Intentional life design I write for people who don’t just want freedom on paper, but in their everyday lives. People rethinking success, structure, ambition, and what a "good life" actually looks like. This space is where I share: - Honest stories from life and work outside the conventional path - The trade-offs behind freedom-first choices - What it really takes to build rhythm, meaning, and sustainability while working independently If you’re a remote worker, indie professional, or brand building for this audience, you’ll enjoy being here. I also create content for 27K+ people on Instagram and 1K+ newsletter subscribers.

Founder | Slow travel & Remote work experiences

Mar 2026Present · 1 mo · Remote

  • I design and host small-group slow travel experiences for remote workers and indie professionals.
  • Remote work gives you freedom, but most people don’t use it because doing everything alone is hard — planning, logistics, finding community, building routine.
  • These experiences solve for that.
  • What I focus on:
  • Curating locations that support both work and slow travel
  • Creating structure without rigidity (work rhythms, shared spaces)
  • Building intentional communities
  • Removing friction so people can actually experience remote work done right
  • Each cohort is small (10–12 people) to ensure depth, connection, and a high-quality experience.
  • Beyond travel, this is about helping people:
  • experience location independence in a practical way
  • build confidence to design their own version of this life
  • create better systems for work, community, and routine
  • If you'd like to host one for your team, DM me.
