Mini bio
How it started.
Gowthaman and Rebecca began Odyssey of Two in 2017 to share their travels with friends. In their 2026 account of those early days, Rebecca remembers his love of taking photographs and says their first Instagram post was a landscape from Munnar. Encouragement from a friend helped them take content creation more seriously.
Two careers, shared journeys.
Travel sits alongside Gowthaman’s work as an ENT surgeon in Chennai. He and Rebecca describe themselves as full-time healthcare professionals and part-time travellers. Their work brings together photographs, travel films and written stories, from city walks to road trips and wildlife encounters.
Finding a wider audience.
Their Northern Lights content attracted attention after trips to Finland and Norway in 2023. That year, the pair placed 52nd on Forbes India’s Top 100 Digital Stars list. They discussed both the viral post and the recognition in a January 2024 interview with The New Indian Express.
What fans can follow now.
Their newsletter adds space for the stories around the pictures. Alongside travel accounts from Seattle, Alaska and Tuscany, they share practical creator lessons and reflections on balancing work, relationships and filming. In March 2026, they reported leading their first group trip in Iceland.
