(New) Jersey-born and raised, I started "Namrita Travels" in late 2022 as a way to share my travel adventures. There’s this assumption that going vegan limits your options and experiences but this couldn't be further from the truth. I have never felt more alive than when I've traveled, but specifically as a vegan.
Being a vegan traveler isn't restrictive; it's liberating.
Come along with me as I explore an entirely new world of possibilities through Michelin stars and hole-in-the-walls, tourist traps and off-the-beaten paths, and open roads and losing control.
If you’re planning a trip to Barcelona, there are a few things you need to know (and do) before you ever set foot in the city. I’m sharing a list of my helpful tips below, and I hope they make it easier for you to plan your own trip to Barcelona. I fell in love with the city, and am already looking forward to my next trip...
Though I spent an entire week in Barcelona, it still wasn’t nearly enough time to do everything I wanted. A lot of people spend less time in the city (my parents were there for three days while on their Spain adventure), and I do recognize how much of a privilege it is to travel and see new places. It’s something that my...
When in Spain, you should take advantage of the many museums in Barcelona, from art and history to chocolate. I love a good museum, and Barcelona has plenty. Many of these museums are conveniently located near each other in the El Born neighborhood or on Montjuïc, and several offer free admission on Sundays (either in the afternoon or on...

Gaudí was a Spanish architect and designer from Catalonia, who combined his passions for architecture, nature, and religion into his work until his untimely death after being hit by a tram a...
As a massive Lord of the Rings fan, one of the main reasons I wanted to visit New Zealand in the first place was to see Hobbiton in real life. You’ll have to book your tour a few months in advance, but Hobbiton isn’t the only place you should explore. With the country’s natural wonders, incredible landscapes, and...
I am definitely biased, but if I were to ever go back to New Zealand to visit, I would go in November (again). There was one very specific reason that my cousin and I wanted to travel to New Zealand in November (I’ll get to that later), but I enjoyed it so much. The weather was perfect, and the country felt like it was gradually in...
Congratulations! You’ve booked your plane tickets to New Zealand. Now what? You’ll probably start to book your accommodations, reserve experiences like Hobbiton, and explore things to do. One thing you shouldn’t forget is your entry requirements. You may be wondering “Do I need an NZeTA?” or “Do I need...
Unless you’re planning to strictly visit New Zealand’s South Island, Wellington should be a must-visit city on your list. If you are visiting both islands and arriving through Auckland, you’ll go through Wellington to reach the South Island (unless you plan to fly there). We took the ferry from Wellington to Picton...
