Indian-origin girl visits 50 countries before 10th birthday, without missing a day of school

Aditi Tripathi, now 10, has travelled to most of Europe including Norway, the Netherlands and Monaco, along with further flung places like Nepal and Thailand.

Growing up, so many wish to one day travel the world and experience different cultures and see various countries. For Aditi Tripathi that dream came true even before she turned 10. The Indian-origin girl, presently staying in the UK, has already visited most places in Europe and even travelled to India, Singapore, Malaysia and Thailand. What's interesting is that thanks to her parents, she did all this without jeopardising her education or missing school.

Aditi’s parents, 43-year-old Deepak and 36-year-old Avilasha, are both accountants by profession, reports the Metro. The duo wants to give their child an amazing experience in life without her having to sacrifice her studies. So, they make sure to travel during school holidays and national holidays. With careful planning, they have taken Aditi to over 50 countries even before she turned 10 years old. As per Metro, her parents pay nearly £20k (approximately over 21 lakhs) a year on travel.

How do they save money for travel?

The family saves money throughout the year by avoiding eating out and not owning a car, reports the Mirror. Also, her parents work from home to avoid the costs of commuting.

How is travelling helping Aditi? Her dad explains:

“I don't have a specific favourite country or place but if I had to choose three it would be Nepal, Georgia, Armenia. Nepal was probably been one of my favourites because I did horse riding, I went on the longest cable car, and I could see mountains like Mount Everest,” the little one told the Mirror. “I really love travelling and have loads of fun memories. I would recommend it to other children because it can really help with your social skills,” she added.

Due to personal circumstances, my wife could not travel with us on this occasion, so it was just me and my daughter travelling to Romania, Moldova and San Marino for a total duration of 9 days,” he wrote. In the next few lines, he explained about their journey in detail.

He also posted a series of images showing Aditi enjoying herself.
