We started off as a blog in 2012 and then converted the blog into a backpacking company in 2013 & as of 2020 April we run backpacking trips in India, Bhutan, Nepal, Sri Lanka & Thailand plus the Tlow website has over 3000 blogs to date. {July ‘2024}
Ever since 2016 we changed our entire approach towards our online presence and went from 8000 followers on facebook to 200k as of October 2020 & Instagram from ZERO to 100k. So what we did different from 2016 was we stopped selling the product and started selling emotions which untimely brought you to read this section.
So unlike others we aren’t an Travel agency we are Digital Nomads who just don’t promote places on the internet but rather we take it one step ahead by helping people travel solo on our trips to explore and experience parts off the world which ain’t still on the map.
We live by our tag line and our vision is take tlow to 196 countries & in the process help make travel more affordable to the common man either through our blogs, tlow trips or yolo stays and E-books.
Even before we started up as a brand the core plan was always to backpack & in doing so we have kept the trend to expand to new places each year while at the same time we continue to fine tune the trips we have had since 2013.
Ever wondered what happens behind the scenes at tlow? How we manage to do all our trips on a shoe string budget? How we hunt and scrub the crust of the earth to find new places which are different, unique and scream Wanderlust? If you have similar thought then think no more because we will be doing the unthinkable.
What is the Unthinkable?
We are now giving an opportunity to 12 tlow backpackers who love travelling the tlow way, and by this we mean guys who have travelled with us for a minimum of 15 days or more to cover the earth with us on a trip like none other. Something we call Trip X.
So what exactly is Trip X?
Trip X is the official flagship trip of tlow. Trip X is unlike any other commercial trip we have ever done thus far. What makes Trip X unique is that the places we will be exploring on this trip are places we have never been to and places we will never go back to again.
How and why did we come up with Trip X?
We at tlow are always trying to reinvent and innovate travel to make it more exciting, affordable and off beat. Ever since the start, we have sold experience and made dreams come true and in doing so we have not only made more friends but have changed and altered the way people think, travel and live life post a backpacking trip with us. Trip X evolved over a random suggestion by one of our fellow backpackers on a freezing cold December night in the Himalayas way back in 2015.
