Varun Khona's story about the creation of Headout is a classic startup tale.

His first startup, Trippy, lasted a mere three years before he found himself with a big idea in 2014 to get in on what was then a burgeoning tours and activities sector.

Hunkering down in New York City with a nascent business had a variety of challenges (he lived with a family relative for some time) but it was the relocation to India that allowed the company to focus and grow.

Throw in an appearance on TV reality show The Pitch and it has the makings of a story to dine out on for decades to come.

Khona joins us at the latest guest on How I Got Here.

HIGH is a weekly show produced by PhocusWire and Mozio, aimed at getting the inside stories behind startups and innovation in travel and transportation.

It's hosted by PhocusWire's editor in chief, Kevin May, and Mozio co-founder and CEO David Litwak.
