Techie leaves Rs 50 lakh salary behind for solo travel, says he is ‘stepping into the unknown’

A 29-year-old techie has drawn attention online after leaving a Rs 50 lakh per annum (LPA) job without another offer lined up, choosing instead to take a break and travel alone. He said he had saved enough money to support himself for six months and wanted to step away from work to clear his head and reassess his professional direction.

During his sabbatical, the techie said he travelled solo through Thailand, Sri Lanka, Belgium, Mexico, France, the Netherlands and Spain. He is currently in Hampi, Karnataka, where he said spending time outdoors has given him the quiet he was looking for.
