Happy 5th Birthday Authentic Journeys (on Facebook)! It’s hard to believe, but five years have passed since Authentic Journeys made its appearance on the Internet. It’s debut on Facebook was on April 1, 2009.
While the Facebook page started on April 1, 2009, the blog started in early 2010. To commemorate five years, let’s take a walk down memory lane to review a few of the people, places and blogs that have built the reputation of Authentic Journeys.

People & Places
Authentic Journeys mission started in the US in 2009 and moved to India in 2011. The move did change the business focus and it took some time to reinvent itself. While in the US, the model focused on helping expats and foreigners find comfort and success in daily work, life and studies in the US. The model in India changed to focus on helping Indians bridge the culture gap while working with Americans (mostly from India, while some do often visit the US or even live there).
To highlight some of the people and places of the last few years, browse through the two blogs (linked below) that showcase some of the wonderful people and projects of Authentic Journeys in India in 2012 and 2013. Without you, none of this is possible. You inspired me to start. You inspire me to continue. Everyday I am motivated by you.
Thank you for spending your time here.
