Full-time founder of Local Narratives—bridging the gap between rural India and urban minds, celebrating and empowering the rural ecosystem
Daughter of a sugarcane farmer who led treks in college to fund her travels.
Led 150 trekkers, got lost, and met Paddy farmers Uttam Dada and Gyaneshwar Dada.
Discovered the beauty of villages and the gap between urban and local communities.
Started village immersion programs with IIT Bombay exchange students, doubling farmers' incomes.
Left a 5-year corporate marketing career after 6 years of solo travel to create a platform for local identities in the global community.
Two best friends, daughters of a farmer, found their passion for travel while exploring the diverse landscapes of India.
While in college, they launched "Backpacking Niva," aiming to create an impact and generate livelihood through travel.
During the COVID-19 pandemic, their initiative evolved into "Travel Talks," focusing on sharing experiences and insights.
Today, they have transformed that small project into an organization called Local Narratives, founded by Vaishnavi, while Nikita supports her from the US by managing the tech aspects.
"From backpacking adventures to building a platform that connects communities, our journey is a testament to the power of friendship and shared vision."
