About me
The wise man travels to discover himself - JR Lowell
My name is Sudha Mathew. I'm an ex-banker who quit the rat race after a decade to follow my passion for travel and to combine it with my experience in understanding client requirements and exceeding their expectations.
Though I don't have any claim to wisdom, I have discovered a whole new me through travel. Like who I am when I'm outside my comfort zone or when I am face to face with something enchanting. While you can read here about the places I stayed at, there's so much more to a journey. An unexpected fiery sunset or a quirky tradition or a fabulous hole-in-the-wall restaurant. So I've reserved this corner of the website to share the unanticipated aspects of travelling. This space is also to hear from you about your journeys and discoveries.

Thanks for dropping by the blog Avanish. Yes, I thought Fatehpur Sikri was fascinating too. I just wish there were knowledgeable guides there rather than the usual hustlers.
