His inspiration started when along with three other friends, they cycled from Turkey to China passing by 4000 kilometers, over 9 countries to promote intercultural understanding, peace, and sustainability. Hitcher Hub also encourages and supports travel enthusiasts to connect with the communities they visit and to share their stories as a way to help break stereotypes. His team raised over $40,000 to fund the entire biking project and was named as a 2019 Global Teen Leader for his work. The Hitcher Hub project now reaches over 7 million people across various media platforms. Besides his interest in the travel technology space, Kesava enjoys solving Rubik’s Cubes and beatboxes.
