“You must go on adventures to find out where you belong.”

— Sue Fitzmaurice

I’ve been dreaming of starting a blog right from the day I’ve stepped into my class during my Undergraduate program – English literature. But, at that point, I didn’t have the luxury or time to spend for something other than studying and existing. It took 4 years of near to death experience that ignited me to see the value of being alive. It gave me the reason to be alive and to live without regret. Moreover it gave me a new passion – Travelling.

Travelling brings different emotions and memories for different people. For me, travelling became my therapy, my way to recharge and heal. When I was bedridden, I was filled with regret of wasting 20 years of my life by missing out on things and witnessing this world has to offer.

This blog has now became the beginning of the change and opportunity that life has given to me.

As a child, I didn’t have kids of my age to play with, so I always take my bicycle, roam around the streets, discovered new paths and places in and around my neigbourhood. Even after stepping into my twenties, whenever I am upset or angry all I do is to travel to find my balance. This sense of adventure continued into adulthood, becoming my elevator to face life’s challenges. And then, by the time to chose my post-graduate stream, I decided to take my career through this line. And this blog is like the first step I have taken for my love for Travel and Tourism.

But if you ask Why the name “A Solivagant’s Shoes”? – Well, I am that person, who always wants to travel with friends but, not very lucky on that part. So instead of waiting, I decided to go ahead and travel alone. I love to travel with people, but I am forced to travel alone till date. I chose the name a Solivagant’s Shoes becauise I believe shoes symbolize journeys and comfort that they give along the way. They have carried me through countless adventures, both big and small. A solivagant means a solitary wanderer, and that perfectly describes my love for exploring the world even if it has to be on my own and on my own terms.

Unlike many luxury travel bloggers and vloggers, I aim to inspire budget consious and responsible travelling. This travel blog will feature affordable travel destinations and safe solo travel tips to travel around Tamil Nadu. I understand that not everyone afford extravagant vacations, and I am here to prove that incredible experiences can be ad on ashoestring budget by utilizing public transports and backpackers friendly accomodations.

Beyond travel, I’ll share product reviews, Korean drama recommendations, tips to improve emotional wellbeing and insights into diverse cultures as well. And also now and then take you through a new Pov through my illustrations.

I am glad to let you into my mind through my blog.

Welcome to my world!!! Let me make sure that I give you the infinite doors to the roads I travel and experience.

A Solivagant’s shoes is going to be a flip into the experience and one step closer to the mind of a Solivagant.
