Sonder Story - Hitha Palepu

I'm a healthcare entrepreneur, a lifestyle writer, and a life hack guinea pig. I live in the Upper West Side with my husband and son, and you can find me reading a book or cooking up a storm when I'm not chasing after my son. I love traveling, and look forward to the day when I can visit Antarctica (and finally have stepped foot in all 7 continents). I grew up all over, but mostly in Philadelphia (and am subsequently an obsessed Philly sports fan). My goals this year include crocheting over 100 preemie baby hats, finally learning Hindi, and finally styling the shelves in my family room.

I am obsessed with the habit tracker - it's so satisfying to mark down what I completed every day. The weekly spread is my most used section, since I write down my 5 to-dos in each day and tick them off obsessively. Despite my best intentions, i have yet to use the coloring section - but I hope to in August or September! I look forward to reading the essays and recipes every month, and there's nothing like filling out the new month's planner.

You can follow the lovely, multitalented Hitha on Instagram: @hithapalepu and learn more about what she's up to in the kitchen, overseas, or at home on her website. And if you're always on the go like her (adventure-seekers, we see you!), you're destined to become a perfect packer when you read her book, How to Pack, Travel Smart For Any Trip.
