Mini bio
How it started.
Aakanksha grew up moving between cities because her father was in the military. At university, internships helped pay for short backpacking trips. In her own account, meeting young travellers from the US in 2018 helped her imagine a different future, and she began travel blogging on Instagram.
Building TravelAMore.
She traded photography and writing for hostel stays, then fitted trips around jobs at Bain and LinkedIn. Workcations in Goa, Sri Lanka and Thailand helped her test a life built around travel. In May 2022, she left LinkedIn to pursue it full-time.
A wider audience.
Her practical travel stories grew into TravelAMore, and her work reached the cover of Forbes India’s Digital Stars issue in 2023. Her guides and videos combine destinations with the questions fans ask about travelling alone, finding affordable stays and working on the road.
Where she is now.
Alongside travel videos, she teaches through Creator Takeoff Academy and writes Unpacked by AM about travel and creator life. In August 2026, she announced Bangkok as her base after years of frequent moves, explaining that a steadier routine would help her keep exploring.
