Hi Globetrotters. My name is Harshita Kasera.

I love to travel because travel makes me happy. Exploring new places, learning new cultures and just admiring nature with my husband Antriksh Saxena is everything. ✈️

My number one travel activity is hiking. I love finding new hikes and exploring the hidden gems of nature. 🚶‍♀

I come from India but I live in the US now. Both these places are home to me. My family lives in India so I visit them pretty often. 🏠

I work as a full-time Software Engineer. I love my job and it makes me happy 💻

The best place I’ve been is Iceland. I have no words to explain how magical this place is. I am grateful that I got a chance to visit this place and would definitely visit it again.

In my spare time, I like to doodle, create art, make DIY projects or write my travel stories.

My top travel tip is to plan well in advance for the best experience. Traveling is more fun at least for us when we are prepared for what to expect at the places we travel to. It reduces the anxiety of the unknown and we enjoy the experience much more.

If I could live somewhere else, I’d live somewhere near the mountains, close to nature.

My favorite way to travel is road trips. We have explored so many local places by doing a weekend road trip. It is a great way to travel on a budget. Sometimes we would do just a road trip to watch a sunset or to stargaze.

Three lessons I’ve learned from traveling are to be open-minded, try new things and immerse in the culture.

Thank you for letting me be a part of this great community of Globetrotters. I cannot wait to share my travel stories with you all.
