About Meena
I’m a traveler who explores the world with the curiosity of a journalist, and I’ve let my curiosity take me to 47 U.S. states, 61 countries, six continents and counting.
I have explored Europe by train, Africa by riverboat and Alaska by helicopter. I have climbed the Harbour Bridge in Sydney, scaled a via ferrata in Alaska and wandered the streets of Amsterdam, Edinburgh, Seoul, St. Petersburg and Havana. Along the way, I’ve written for publications including Travel+Leisure, Departures, The Wall Street Journal and Fortune.
I’ve also lived in Washington, D.C., Chicago, London and New York, and become an expert in each of these cities.
My wanderlust — like my curiosity about the world around me — runs deep. I’ve worked at least a few hours of fun into almost every business trip I’ve ever taken. And for as long as I can remember, nothing has been able to match the thrill of takeoff or the exhilaration I get from exploration.
My mission with Travel with Meena is to center the stories of travelers of color too often missing from the conversation. In the process, I hope to give you the information and the inspiration you need to keep exploring this beautiful complicated world.
