Mini bio

How it started.

Mohit grew up in Faridabad and worked in his uncle’s software business before becoming a travel creator. Friends kept asking him about visas and itineraries, so he began making videos to answer their questions.

Finding his audience.

His early Amsterdam budget guide and Switzerland series helped establish Traveling Desi. The appeal was practical: showing viewers how to plan an international trip and what it could cost.

Life along the way.

After moving to Canada in 2019, he brought more family life into his vlogs. Motorhome journeys became part of the channel too. His own website describes storytelling as a way to share both travels and the lessons that come with them.
