Our Team
The ITH Team
Ashish Verma
Co-Founder
Ashish co-founded International Travellers’ Hostel in November 2012 out of his sheer love for travel. He worked as a Graphic Design professional before starting ITH in Varanasi. Based between Germany and India, he manages the business remotely.
Shubha Verma
Co-Founder
Believer of the Brahma, a devout and bona fide meditator, Shubha, Ashish’s mother, is a lovely woman. She cooks some of the finger-lickingly, lip-smackingly delicious foods served at the hostel. She also co-manages another business. And she is a charm among the travellers.
She makes International Travellers’ Hostel as awesome as it is today. She is a Superwoman!

Vishal on-boarded ITH in 2019 as the host of our homestay property in Varanasi. Belonging to Delhi, he is also a Graphic Designer. Since then he has moved on to assume the role of Director of Operations within India.
