A Traveler Getting Lost on Purpose

Kamya is a digital nomad and photographer who’s been on the road since 2015. This international traveler is from India originally, but studied extensively in the United Kingdom, earning a Masters degree in Economics for Warwick. Fresh out of university, she claims she had no idea what to do with her life. She decided to take a year off to travel South-East Asia – and that was when the travel bug bit her. Before she knew it, she’d been on the road for three years, and was a full-fledged digital nomad. This impressive traveler also runs an NGO that raises awareness about plastic, green living, and sustainable travel in India. Keep up with her journey here.

Since then, she has traveled extensively and believes strongly in sustainable living and travel. Through her blog and images, she hopes to inspire others to travel more, seek out more adventures, and follow their dreams. Learn more about her here.

A Travel and Fashion Influencer Living the Glam Life

Katie Giorgadze describes herself as a London girl with Parisian style. Truth is, however, she’s even more international than that. Born in Georgia, she also spent significant years of her life studying in Russia, and from there, France, which is where her love for Paris truly began. Katie travels all over Europe and credits her husband with the photography on her account. For a blog that’s just as much about fashion as it is about travel, go ahead and give her a follow. See more of her work here.
