Hey fellow travellers,
I,am
Manishaa Dubey,
A wanderer just like you. Born and raised in Kanpur, a city with immense historical, religious and industrial significance, I grew up in a culture that was a beautiful blend of the old and new. The love for my own town drove me towards exploring other cities and vivid cultures too. The year 2008 flagged off my journey with a visit to the sacred Purnagiri Temple, perched on a hilltop in Uttarakhand. My quest for travelling to popular and offbeat places has continued since then. I am also blessed with a very loving family that supports me in pursuing my passion. And now that you are here, join me in my world of escapades! Get ready to witness the splendours and adventures of the world with me.
Welcome There!
