Bhushavali - My Travelogue
Bhushavali is a Fashion & Textile Designer by profession and an ardent traveler by passion. A wanderlust who loves to travel & hates crowds, she ventures to places where many don’t venture. I find new places which are roads-less traveled. I love riding my bike and I enjoy the journey itself, as much as the destination. says Bhushavali. We caught up with this wanderlust to find out little bit more about her travel journey.
