This new venture was born in 2024, then put into action in January 2025. It was a simple idea: to share a destination I am especially familiar with and passionate about with a group of travelers, via a trip I plan and accompany them on. This kind of trip allows me to be on the ground, solving any issues that come up, but also to provide my expertise on the area with my clients. 

The first trip, in January of 2025, was to India. A small group of like-minded intrepid travelers went on a nearly 3 week trip encompassing several cities from the Southern, Northern and Western States of the country. Due to its length, the program was immersive by nature which allowed everyone to come away with a better understanding of Indian culture, the diversity of its people and its landscapes. 

Riding on this success, a second trip back to India happened in January of 2026. This trip was a shorter one, but once again with the focus of providing an immersive experience of the country by traveling through multiple states in India. 

I hope to grow Journeys with Usha by designing itineraries under this banner to more countries besides India. Currently I am exploring potential trips to Spain and Italy. Keep your eyes open and ears to the ground to learn more about the growth of this venture! And follow along on Instagram @journeyswithusha
