A beautifully written piece about a traveler’s tales. Veena genuinely articulates the true gifts of traveling through reflections of her intrapersonal and interpersonal encounters across the world. Weaving in political and historical context alongside her experiences, she draws attention to global fallacies inspiring you to challenge and unearth the truths of the world. Overall the piece is a fantastic read that I recommend to travel enthusiasts like myself and to those who are looking for a reason to travel. If you haven’t already, you will definitely catch the travel bug after this read!

Truly inspirational. You won’t be able to put it down!
