Hi I am Sheetal, a travel blogger!

Welcome to TheLocalGlobalExpat, a blog where I share my personal journeys and travel adventures while inspiring individuals from various backgrounds to discover the world.

"I haven't been everywhere but it's on my list"

 

From dancing flamenco in the vibrant streets of Buenos Aires to finding tranquility in the rice paddies of Bali, from hiking along the breathtaking Na Pali coast in Hawaii to savouring local delicacies at the Tsim Sha Tsui Night Market in Hong Kong, and from embarking on a husky safari in the frosty -25 degrees of Lapland to snorkeling in the warm Indian Ocean off the coast of Mozambique, each travel experience has profoundly enriched my life in ways I can't fully express.

 

Growing up in Mumbai, India I didn't travel much, but the thrill of exploring new places, discovering different cultures and cuisines, and meeting intriguing people from different parts excited me beyond belief. It’s like I have had the travel bug forever which ultimately inspired me to pursue a career in tourism.

After moving to London and meeting my husband Amol who shares my passion for travel at an extraordinary level my love for exploration soared to new heights.

​

In 2019, we set off on a two-year secondment to South Africa, and now, six years later, we still can’t get enough of this incredible country. We take every opportunity to embark on road trips, enjoying self-drive holidays throughout South Africa. Also exploring the untamed beauty of this magnificent African continent.

​

I am enthusiastic about sharing my adventures and experiences, aiming to inspire individuals from diverse backgrounds to explore the world. Traveling is a genuinely enriching journey, with endless discoveries waiting to be made.

​

If you, too, have a passion for travel, new cultures, and connecting with others, we likely have much in common. I’m always eager to meet fellow nomads who share similar interests. Feel free to reach out or connect with me on Instagram, and let’s exchange our travel stories!
