'Balancing the act' talks about how you manage your job and experience the world. (Before covid-19 got to this planet) How difficult is it for you to write your story? A story that the world should know of. A story of not the most famous villages and towns. But your unique take on life, travel, food and everything in the middle. "All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us" Well, this is what I do with mine. I listen to stories get inspired and take on learnings from the wise. I trust you will give this an ear and more importantly tell your story to the world.

episode 6: Why you will never forget Varanasi - Akshita Shrivastava | Ep. #6
The week before this was a glorious bike ride into heaven, this episode I bring to you a story from a dreamer from Bhopal- Akshata. A 21-Year-old Traveller, who has been working in hostels and living in various parts of India (Jaipur, Varanasi, Dharamshala, Goa). She will enlighten you about what a travel bug is. Well, if that travel bug has not bitten you yet- you can check out the website that will give you a chance to volunteer and get real life experiences Worldpackers.com
The Discussion then leads into how she made it to her first trip and hitchhiking experiences that made all the differences in her life. We also talk about what she learnt and how she learned the tricks of survival. What happens in Banaras because its never about having a plan to go there but the place itself draws you too it. To understand things like a local, I broke down a few things that one must do and beware you won’t find these things on the internet. You will also know the right price to rent your next boat ride. Lastly, we speak about the place that one should visit after the lockdown and that one is a special recommendation.
