ABOUT ME

Hello! I’m Shivya Nath. In 2011, at age 23, I quit my corporate job with a dream of traveling the globe. Two years later, I packed up my life into a backpack and decided to hit the road indefinitely. I travel slow, seek offbeat and local experiences, stay in a place for a few weeks or as long as it inspires me, and move on.

Some of my most cherished experiences include travelling overland from the Persian Gulf via Iran to Armenia, living with a Mayan community in Guatemala, volunteering at a coral reef restoration project in Cuba, living in a nunnery in Ladakh (India), and shedding my fears and clothes at onsens across Japan.

I hope to inspire you to step out of your comfort zone and experience the world too!

What I’m upto now

In early 2022, I spent a month on one of the world’s remotest islands – Robinson Crusoe, off the coast of Chile in South America – working on storytelling and sustainability projects as part of the Work for Humankind initiative. Travelling after two years of the pandemic was life-changing in many ways.

I continue to write travel stories at the intersection of conservation, communities and climate action, here and on Instagram. I now also offer consulting services to businesses and non-profits looking to design, launch and implement sustainable tourism initiatives.

The Shooting Star Book

A travel memoir that charts my journey from the cubicle to the road. A national bestseller in India, published by Penguin.
