Never Ending Footsteps

Work. Eat. Travel. Repeat.

Travel Moody started in 2019 as a group of friends from the Konkan coast who couldn't sit still. We cycled from Mumbai to Goa, and on the way became friends with a rider from Georgia who was cycling 7,000 km. We have camped on beaches and in forests, and taken groups up to Kedarnath and across Spiti.

Today our base is Kalpawruksha Homestay on Palande beach. From there we plan Konkan experiences, group journeys and outings for anyone who wants to travel with good company.
