about

Meet Val

I’m Shilpi Valentine - the heart behind Globetrot with Val.

When I’m not immersed in my medical career, I’m exploring the world’s most fascinating places - from breath-taking safaris to deeply rooted cultural destinations. I’ve travelled to over 30 countries, speak 8 languages, and believe the best travel experiences come from truly connecting with people, culture, and local stories.

I’m here to share my carefully crafted guides and personalized trips, so you can travel with confidence and truly enjoy every moment.
