Welcome to the world of Road Tripping Enthusiasts!!

I’m The Driving Addict
I am a traveller and wanderer at heart.
I love driving and road trips are my therapy.


Travelling and road trips for me are all about experiences and so the journey is as important as the destination. I take every opportunity to hit the road and I hope that my blogs, pictures and videos will provide you inspiration to head out, travel, explore and get lost. After all, travel is the best education.

Please connect with me if I can assist you in your travels and journeys. Hope to see you on the road soon.

I know Akshay from my childhood & for sure he is an avid traveller. He is a driving addict (Innova, Thar & now a Jeep Compass) + a riding addict (Honda CBZ, Royal Enfield & Triumph Bonneville). We had some memorable trips to Goa, Pondicherry & many more with Axi being the most enthusiastic in planning the routes. Other than leisure travel even his works takes him to some of the most remotest parts of India.. I am sure everybody will like his page & experiences. Best Luck Axi
