About Deepa
Deepa Lakshmin is the Director of Social Media at Lonely Planet and calls New York City home – for now, but not forever. As a journalist, she’s reported for National Geographic, MTV News, Vox, NYLON and Inverse, plus managed social accounts for Atlas Obscura and The Daily Beast. She travels because it reminds her how big and beautiful the world is outside of her comfort zone. Born and raised outside of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, she’s got a special place in her heart for Bengaluru, India (formerly known as Bangalore), because she spent her summers there as a kid running around with her cousins. See all her adventures (and photos of her cat) on Twitter and Instagram below.
