Aarvi, our 6-year-old, is a curious soul and a total beach baby. She loves collecting shells, chasing crabs, and chatting with strangers like they’re her long-lost friends. I still remember her at 2.5 years old—wrapped in a jacket, climbing Mt. Batur in Bali at sunrise, asking in wonder, “Who colored the black soil? ”

Our youngest, Aarav, is 2 now—the laughter and energy of our crew. He’s still discovering his world, but so far, elephants and animals have his full heart.

And Anupam, our techie dad, is the balance between my dreamer energy and his quiet practicality. He loves stories of ancient cultures and always finds something fascinating to learn wherever we go.

How We Travel 🌏

We’re not full-time travelers—just a family making the most of school breaks and long weekends. We usually travel 3–4 times a year, mixing short getaways within India with a couple of international adventures whenever schedules align.

Our small crew has explored 11+ Asian countries so far—chasing pandas in Chengdu, rolling strollers through Tokyo’s parks, watching fireworks over Singapore’s Marina Bay, and building sandcastles on Sri Lanka’s serene beaches.

But if we had to pick our favorites:

• Vietnam has our hearts—it’s where we’ve returned three times as a family. From climbing limestone cliffs in Ha Long Bay to wandering Hanoi’s lakeside streets, it always feels like home.
• Bali is my daughter Aarvi’s happy place—sunshine, waves, and lazy beach days.
• Kyoto, Japan, is Anupam’s love for its calm, culture, and order.
• India, where we lived for nearly two years with our kids, changed us the most—it’s chaotic and soulful all at once.

We’ve learned that the best family trips in Asia aren’t about ticking landmarks off a list—they’re about finding those places that balance comfort and curiosity. Where food feels familiar for little tummies, streets are clean and safe, and there’s enough breathing room for everyone.

We’re comfort-seeking travelers who love slow, meaningful journeys. We plan every detail carefully—not to be perfect, but to make travel peaceful for everyone.
We skip overcrowded buses for private transfers, choose hotels with family rooms and breakfast options nearby, and always make sure there’s a little fun built in for both kids and adults.

Because the truth is—family travel doesn’t have to be chaotic. It just needs a balance of comfort, culture, and care.

What Travel Taught Us

Before kids, travel was spontaneous—book the ticket, pack, and go.
After kids, everything changed.

Yes! It’s all become more conscious and thoughtful, as we have two little humans with us who need comfort!

Every destination needs thought: the weather, the food, the vibe, how stroller-friendly it is, and if there’s a play area nearby.

We learned that it’s okay to skip a popular attraction if it means more joy and less stress.
Family travel is not about doing it all—it’s about feeling present where you are. That’s all about us.

We’re not perfect travelers—we’re just parents learning, exploring, and finding meaning along the way.
