2. Your Photography/Travel experience: Tell us since when you've been taking pictures or started exploring places. When did you start taking photography/Travel seriously?     A.

My first solo trip was to Ladakh almost a decade ago. It was only in January 2014 though that I realised that I could do this for a living, and took this seriously as a profession.
