About Me
Hola! I'm Medhavi Davda - a solo and adventure traveler. Himalayas is my first home.
I am a High-Altitude Trekker and a certified Advanced Open Water SCUBA Diver.
I LOVE dancing, badminton, french wines & cheese cakes.
I left my 9+ yrs of career in Software Industry in a quest to make a living out of my passions, living minimalistic and location independent life. I packed my basic stuff in my car (donated the rest) and lived in different parts of Himachal Pradesh for 16 months.
I'm currently living in Mumbai to work with an Adventure Travel company as a Product Manager - Scuba Diving & Mountain Expeditions.
Comfort makes me uncomfortable and so I have RAVENOUS LEGS
