Brown Art Network: The Art of Travel and Pushing Past Stigma (w/ Veena Murali)
Manage episode 344602748 series 2882321
In this episode of Brown Art Network, Sneha and Keerthi talk with Veena Murali - a 22 year-old solo female traveler who’s traveled to a total of 55+ countries and recently went on a ‘Journey Around the World in 180 Days’ solo trip. They talk with her to learn more about her passion for travel and how she became a solo traveler. While they learn about her personal experiences with the countries she's visited, they also talk about the perception different cultural identities have around the world and how to push past what the media shares of those countries to expand your own perspective. Not only do they touch upon the perceptions of traveling in terms of identity, but they also talk about the beauty of traveling solo, the stigmas of traveling alone (especially as a desi woman), and how to travel on a budget. As they conclude their conversation, Veena provides advice from her experiences to those who look to break out of their comfort zone and travel by themselves, especially as a desi woman.
