ABOUT
Hi! 👋🏽 I’m Sahani from Colombo, Sri Lanka. With 8 years of experience in the sustainable development sector and after visiting several countries and exploring my own backyard, my approach to travel has evolved. I realised I could merge my passion for travel with positive impact. ✅ What I'm a great fit for: Couples, solo travelers, hikers, and families who enjoy travelling consciously and sustainably, being in nature, soaking in immersive and authentic experiences, local culture, great food and off-the-beaten-paths. 🌱 What is conscious travel and why share it with you? Conscious travel simply means to explore mindfully, have transformative and authentic experiences, and leave a positive impact on the places we visit. I aspire to travel authentically—forging deeper connections with each place, understanding diverse cultures, embracing local ways of life, and weaving these encounters into stories that inspire others to explore. Through my lens, every destination becomes an opportunity for conscious exploration and a canvas for self-reflection. I also want to inspire you to explore mindfully, have transformative experiences, and leave a positive impact. ➡️ Follow me on Instagram, TikTok & Threads @Sahaniwanders for Sri Lanka travel, recommendations, tips, personal stories, and more. 🌍 PS: I'm an aspiring travel storyteller. You can read more about my conscious travels on my blog: www.sahaniwanders.com
