What travel taught me about home
For Praneetha, the education of travel often starts on the journey home. After spending time in cities as different as Jaipur, Venice and Singapore, the things she once took for granted in Durban became easier to name. The warmth of the Indian Ocean was one. The chance to spend time outdoors throughout the year was another.
Travel also changed her sense of where a South African business could work. Meeting people beyond her immediate circle helped her see that skills developed at home could serve clients overseas. Seeing more of the world widened her idea of what was possible from Durban and gave her a sharper appreciation for the city itself.
