Where can your
passport take you
tonight?

Most travel sites tell you where to go, then mention visa as a footnote. NoMadYa flips it: pick your passport first, then trip-plan around what you can actually enter. Hand-verified by Afthab, 15 countries deep.

Trip plans, opened end to end.

Not theoretical itineraries copied from blogs. These are my actual trips, with real flight prices, real hotel receipts, real visa fees, and the single discovery from each one that nobody else writes about.

Vietnam, my first abroad

Visa-on-arrival turned visa-free in 2024, so this plan got cheaper to copy. Day-by-day breakdown of how I went from "never abroad" to confidently routing Hanoi → Hoi An → Saigon with a real budget.

Kazakhstan, the Kolsai gamble

Almost no English-language content exists on Kazakhstan for Indian travelers. Visa-free since 2024, mountains 3 hours from Almaty, and total costs that undercut Goa in winter.

Thailand, three ways

First trip I was a tourist. Second trip I went deeper. Third trip I knew where to stay and how to escape Bangkok at 6am. The same country reads differently each visit — here's the comparison.

WHO RUNS THIS

One human.
Fifteen countries.

I'm Afthab. Software engineer in Chennai. My first international trip was Vietnam, my most recent was Bali with stops on Nusa Penida and the Gili Islands. In between: Malaysia (three times), Hong Kong, Macau, Kazakhstan, Sri Lanka, Thailand (three times), Laos, Cambodia, Singapore.

I plan every trip end-to-end on a spreadsheet before I book a flight. Visa first, then dates, then routing, then accommodations, then cost. I built NoMadYa because I couldn't find a single site that treats planning as the actual problem — not the destination listicle.
