Meet The Progressive Traveller

Yama has had an affinity for travel since childhood, when she learned about interesting events in world history class at school. She often expressed to her parents a desire to visit the places where they’d taken place. Since her mother worked for an airline, it was easier for her parents to actually take her and her siblings to visit many of these places. These experiences brought her history lessons off the pages of schoolbooks and into real life. Additionally, they created an incurable thirst for world travel and a calling in her to help expose others to global experiences.

As Yama got older and continued to travel, her close friends voiced a desire to travel with her. Eventually, she decided to see if they were serious and planned a group trip to Thailand. Thirteen people joined her on that trip to Bangkok and Phuket in 2011, and they all expressed hopes to travel with her again. At that moment, Yama founded Progressive Travellers and has planned annual trips (#PTWorldAdventures) to exotic destinations including Bali, India and Ghana. She also creates customized experiences for those who need expert planning and advice for global travel adventures.
