I’m Jess, founder of Monsoon Desert Treasures and Travel. Having travelled to India 18 times, my love for this extraordinary country goes far beyond its magnificent palaces, vibrant markets and beautiful landscapes. It’s the friendships I’ve formed, the people I’ve met and the experiences I’ve shared that keep drawing me back.

Through my travels and many years of involvement with an NGO in India, I’ve built meaningful connections with local families and artisans. I’m passionate about discovering traditional crafts, hearing the stories behind them and sharing the warmth, culture and hidden gems of the India I know and love.

My aim is to create personal, meaningful journeys that go beyond the usual tourist trail, bringing you closer to the people, traditions and experiences that make India so special.

I can’t wait to share this remarkable country with you.
