Travel has always been my greatest passion—a source of inspiration, adventure, and learning. The world feels like an open book, and every destination I visit adds a new chapter to my story. Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to explore mesmerizing places like Japan, Thailand, Switzerland, Iceland, and Italy, each offering a unique tapestry of culture, history, and natural beauty. My journey began in Japan, a country that immediately stole my heart. From the bustling streets of Tokyo to the serene temples of Kyoto, every moment felt like stepping into a world of contrasts. Watching the cherry blossoms bloom in Ueno Park was a dream come true, and the warmth of the locals made me feel at home. I marveled at the discipline and respect ingrained in Japanese culture while savoring sushi that melted in my mouth. Climbing Mount Fuji was both a physical challenge and a spiritual experience, reminding me of the beauty in perseverance. From the tranquility of Japan, I found myself immersed in the vibrant energy of Thailand. Bangkok’s chaotic charm and the golden glow of its temples were unforgettable. A slow boat ride along the Chao Phraya River revealed a life vastly different from my own. The islands of Krabi and Phuket, with their turquoise waters and dramatic limestone cliffs, felt like paradise. Thai food, from street-side pad Thai to fragrant green curry, was a revelation in flavors. I even tried scuba diving, discovering an underwater world that felt like a dream. In Switzerland, nature reigned supreme. The Swiss Alps, blanketed in snow, were breathtaking. I took a cable car to Jungfraujoch, the “Top of Europe,” and stood in awe of the icy expanse. The charming towns of Lucerne and Interlaken seemed like postcards come to life. Switzerland taught me the value of simplicity and precision, as reflected in its efficient trains and delicious chocolate. Then came Iceland, a land of fire and ice. Witnessing the Northern Lights dance across the sky felt like magic, while the geothermal Blue Lagoon offered solace amidst a surreal landscape. Exploring glaciers, volcanic fields, and roaring waterfalls left me spellbound. Finally, Italy captured my soul with its rich history and passion for life. Walking through the ruins of Rome, cruising the canals of Venice, and indulging in gelato in Florence felt like stepping into a painting. The warmth of Italian hospitality and the beauty of its art and architecture reminded me of the importance of savoring life’s pleasures. Traveling has not only broadened my horizons but also deepened my appreciation for the world’s diversity. Each journey is a reminder that our planet is a treasure trove of stories, waiting to be discovered. My wanderlust continues, and I can’t wait to see where it takes me next.

I am a travel lover. Exploring new places is my passion. Traveling opens up the world in exciting ways. It allows me to discover new destinations and meet different people. I can enjoy different cuisines and explore various landmarks. When I need a break from my routine, I plan my trip and it offers fresh perspectives and relaxation. Each journey is an opportunity to learn and grow. Whether it's a short trip or a long vacation, traveling adds joy and adventure to life, creating unforgettable memories for me and my family I remember the quote by Samuel Johnson: "All travel has its advantages. If the passenger visits better countries, he may learn to improve his own. And if fortune carries him to worse, he may learn to enjoy it". I have had the luck of visiting better countries and I believe my travel experiences have taught me a lot about human life and helped me in expanding the way I see things. I traveled to the USA, UK, Canada, Singapore, Malaysia, Hongkong, Indonesia, Maldives, Switzerland, France, UAE, Oman, Thailand, Shenzhen, Macau, Nepal, Italy, Vatican City, Russia, Turkey and ofcourse India from Jammu and Kashmir to Kanyakumari and from Dwarka to Puri as well Andaman. When I first travelled within India, it opened my eyes to how other people live. I saw how people lived happily even though they did not have much money or luxuries. It taught me that to be happy, money is not the only thing. I must have an attitude to be happy with what I have. It also taught me to accept people from different races and colors. When I travelled abroad, I saw new cultures and different lifestyles. It was very exciting and adventurous and boosted my self confidence. I learnt to enjoy these new experiences, to become part of these varied cultures by eating their food, wearing their dresses, languages, dancing, houses, businesses etc. I am very excited to visit Vietnam. I have heard so much about time travel through Cu Chi tunnels and want to experience it. I am extremely enthusiastic about coconut basket boat ride surrounding rural areas of Hoi An. Exploring Phong Nha caves and underground river. I want to walk across Golden hand bridge in Da Nang with my soulmate, cycling through rice terraces in Sapa with my children. I would love to visit Gem of Vietnam Quoc Island, water puppet show in Ho chi Minh City which is in my bucket list. Explore hidden places like waterfalls, iconic clay tunnel, floating market in DaLat, Marble mountains in Da Nang and Sip Vietnamese coffee and vegetarian street food. Exploring Vietnam would be a dream come true for me. I would love to experience Vietjet Air hospitality on my trip.

As a young woman determined to explore 30 countries before turning 30, I am one of the first in my family to have the courage to dream big. Adding Vietnam to my list would be a fantastic opportunity to experience a country so rich in culture, history, and unique cuisine. I have always been passionate about food, and exploring local cuisine in every place is my way of understanding its culture. Hearing my friends’ stories of Vietnam’s vibrant street life, friendly locals, and diverse food scene has only fueled my desire to visit. They’ve described how different and magical Vietnam felt—waking up early to explore, taking leisurely walks, and engaging in conversations with locals, embracing every bit of the country’s charm. This trip would be an inspiring step towards fulfilling my travel dreams, breaking barriers, and proving that a girl from my background can reach beyond expectations, adding another beautiful chapter to my journey of growth and self-discovery.

My exciting world of travels started at age 21. I had won a ticket for a dance contest with my then-partner to Lusaka, but sadly we broke up subsequently. However I decided to use the ticket to Zambia to beat the depression. That was the best decision and my heartbreak in effect opened a lifetime of loving to travel the world, experience cultures and cuisines. At 55 my wanderlust is still intact and I plan at least 2 trips overseas yearly when and as I can afford to Each of my 10 nieces and nephews is also given the opportunity to explore 1 country with me, once in a lifetime trip with Aunty, as I call it, a legacy I leave them, having no kids myself. Last year ethan and estelle chose Vietnam and we flew your airline It was a beautiful experience to explore this beautiful with them. And being foodies, we tried everything but always ended with a bahn me at night. HoiAn is my most favourite place on earth.. Beautiful mystical and magical.. I hope to visit soon with my nieces and nephews who weren't there as I could only afford 2 per trip
