A Marketing Professional | A Leader | An Avid Traveller

Susmita is a marketing professional with over 15 years of experience across diverse sectors. But beyond boardrooms and branding strategies, her heart belongs to the open road. Since 2010, she has embraced travel not just as a hobby, but as a lifelong calling — one that has taken her across mountains, borders, cultures, and continents.

Her journey began humbly in the majestic Nepal Himalayas, with the Annapurna Foothills Trek. Since then, Nepal has become her spiritual second home — she has visited the country seven times, trekking across iconic routes including Everest Base Camp, the high-altitude Cho La Pass, the Annapurna Circuit, Poon Hill, Mt. Fishtail Base Camp, and the Langtang-Lirung region and the little know path Chintaphu Trail.

As her travels evolved, so did her map. Over the years, she has accomplished some truly remarkable travel milestones across continents:

• Russia
  • Journeyed through the Caucasus Mountains
  • Completed the legendary Trans-Siberian Railway from Moscow to Vladivostok
• Central Asia
  • Explored the cultural depths of Azerbaijan and Kazakhstan
• Northern & Western Europe (Solo Backpacking)
  • Travelled extensively across Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, the Netherlands, and Germany (twice)

  • Immersed in the heritage and beauty of Italy, Austria, Switzerland, and Luxembourg
  • Undertook a 23-day Grand Train Tour of Switzerland, covering:
    • Glacier Express
    • Bernina Express
    • GoldenPass Express
    • Panorama Express
    • Scenic routes like Zurich–Interlaken and St. Gallen–Schaffhausen–Zurich

• Bhutan
  • A deeply immersive cultural retreat among monasteries and mountains

  • Offbeat explorations through Laos and Thailand

Susmita doesn’t travel to tick boxes—she journeys to connect with cultures, people, and nature. Her adventures are driven by curiosity, respect, and the desire to learn and share. She is not a tourist; she is a spontaneous explorer.

This love for meaningful travel led to the birth of ‘Travel With Susmita’ — a boutique travel brand rooted in authenticity, sustainability, and soulful experiences. Her mission is to help others experience the joy of purposeful travel, where cultural exchange, community empowerment, and nature conservation go hand in hand.
