About The Travelling Squid

Hi, I'm Phebe, the author of this blog. I fell in love with India in 2009, when I lived there for six months. Ever since, I've been trotting across the globe with my trusty backpack sometimes alone and at times with friends, albeit with a questionable sense of direction. Unlike the most courageous, I haven't sold my belongings to travel for a year or two. I currently hold an office job, and would like to show that it is very much possible to pursue one's love for travel and hold a day job at the same time. Check out the About section for more information on me and The Travelling Squid.
