Mohamed Raffi & Poorvi Daxini

Total Vote(s) : 719 | Total Testimonial(s) : 40

We met each other at a Horse riding summer camp at BARI, Bangalore. Several common interests like travel, adventure sports, trekking and driving have kept us in touch. Our goal is to enjoy and experience everything that life has to offer! We believe in trying new things and we do not fear the unknown. In fact, it gives us a high! Poorvi has been on a roller coaster ride of the corporate world for several years and has now taken a break from work to catch up on fun and adventure! She has tried her hand at several activities like acting (theatre), painting, horse riding, music, dancing, volunteering and a lot more. Having lived in Chennai, New York, Bombay and Bangalore, she feels at home at any place and has learned to make friends even with the unfriendliest! Raffi is forever on his toes and squeezes in as much fun as possible into his life. People imagine techies to be geeks and nerds, but despite being a hard core techie for a decade, he loves to ride horses and is a complete package from cooking to wheeling. He is a passionate trekker, ardent photographer, inveterate wheeler, experimental cook, amateur equestrian rider, and a compulsive health freak!

We are the best candidates because...

Having traveled to 5 of the 6 continents and driven in 3 (hitting 100 miles an hour and NOT getting caught was fun!), having got lost but not lost our nerves and wits, having lived in tents and under the open sky, having befriended locals and broken bread with them, having hit a police car and joked with the police, having skid in the snow and tumbled the car, having taken thousands of pics (posted 2000+ on Flickr), I think we have it in us to win this and some more! Travel and adventure runs in our blood, we love to be behind the wheel, have loads of driving experience (each one of us have 25,000+ as driver credits and still counting; in addition, Raffi has covered 30,000 Kms on his bike!), are pretty fit (Raffi can change the wheel in 8 minutes!), enjoy sharing our experiences with prose and pictures, and bring a smile to the faces of people we meet on our journeys. Also, Raffi is a veteran blogger and writes his thoughts and experiences in four blogspots. Aren’t we the BEST!

Our Travel Plan

We are nature lovers and so the theme for our GDC trip was easy to decide - cover wildlife sanctuaries and national parks and thereby promote our cause "Save Environment, Save Wildlife". Some of the sanctuaries we plan to cover are: Yawal, Bandhavgarh, Kanha and Pench. While on the go, we will keep you all up-to-date on our exciting journey via blogs, messages and tweets, so you can be with us every kilometer of our exciting journey!!

Our Travelogue

Our travels include common destinations like Ooty, Goa, Pondicherry, Paris, Rome, London, Dubai, Rajasthan, Wayanad, Coorg, Agumbe, Bandipur, Singapore, Bangkok, exotic ones such as Cambodia, Egypt, Australia and everything in between like Sikkim, Darjeeling, Amsterdam, Brussels, Oxford, Muscat, New York, LA and several more. Besides, we have made several short trips and treks into the wilderness. During our travels, we don't just see places, but feel and experience them. We enjoy meeting and chatting with the locals, trying the local cuisine, learning their culture and tradition and correcting their impression of India at times. We marvel that no matter where we go, people and their emotions are the same! Despite the language / economic / social barriers, we connect with everyone at the emotional level!

Ananthakrishnan

All the best Rafi & poorvi...

Amar

Raffi - you rock man...! Have one on me when you hit the last mile. :-)

Sreekanth Athikunte

Raffi is a good friend and colleague of mine for the last 2 years. He is a brilliant Java developer and an ace driver as well! I wish him success in the "Great Driving Challenge" contest.

Hari

What to say about this guy...he's cool, fun loving and travel freak...everytime i go to his seat, i get to see his new drive/trek pics...i don't know from where he will get all the time especially for trek/drive...

satyakam

It's hard to find Raffi in bangalore over the weekend. He'll be either be in some trek, car trip, bike trip, etc. He takes nice photos, bringing a feeling that I was in the trip.

Aravind !! :)

I know you are perfect candidates for this.. I know him since from more then 3years.We meet in trekking. We together made lots of hills trekking. That time he is to tell about his passion driving, trekking and he can cover long distance without tired or getting bored. Grate Dedu my vote is always for you. Good luck for both of you

maruthakumar

- If I ever thought my determination was low, I would sit up with you and talk, it helped me borrow yours.. !! - Well.. This time, I am determined to see you up and high.. - Wish you all the best.

Anita Kuruvilla

Dear Poorvi, "Do notice that anybody driving slower than you is an idiot, and anyone going faster than you is a maniac." Happy Driving !!! Anita Kuruvilla

Manpreet

I have known Poorvi for some time now and have found her to be passionate about everything she does..once she starts something...she gives it her best shot... Raffi...the fact that he is the only one who goes for horse riding everyday after the camp get over..says a lot about him and his diligence... The mind maps, blogs, photos and videos that he shared with us during the camp ensured that non of us bothered to get a camera...we knew he would take brilliant snaps and share them with us... They really deserve to be in this challenge and win .

Ranbow

Hi Raffi, Good lucky, and the girl looks very good, I hope you can win the competition, the car and the girl :) Best wishes, Ranbow

Manjunath B M

Raffi is a very good friend of mine... His interests in travelling and taking part is almost everything is amazing... He likes challenges which is beyond most of our imaginations. Best of all is that he coverts them to reality... :)

Rana Chanda

When I came to know about this I could not believe, this guy (Raffi)who started his carrier under me way back in late 1990's will be such adventure loving. But I knew he has the the guts and desire to explore new things...... all the very best for his endevour...Rana

Susheela

Hi Raffi, Good luck.

Ruchi Mathur

This is one adventure loving couple and I hope they win! I know both Poorvi and Raffi personally and each of them constantly surprises me with their initiative and tremendous zest for life. They are the kind of people who infect others with their enthusiasm and carry them along. They consistently find time to travel/ trek/ enrol in courses/ volunteer at NGOs/ etc, in spite of their work schedules. Life is an adventure for them and The Great Driving Challenge fits right up their sleeve, especially the driving-for-fun bit!

Praveen Singh

I was with him when he drove the car to pondi....with the office mates... He drives well and you can go with him even if you don't have medical insurance...

Ravi

Way to go guys! Your enthusiasm and zest to enjoy life to the hilt is infectious and spreads even to workaholics like me. Its great to be around you guys %u2013 gives me a fresh breath of life! I don%u2019t think you need any luck; your passion will win you this and some more.

Adireddi

Mitsubishi Cedia is a fab car and am positive you guys are gonna drive it through Bandhavgarh and Kanha! Can I hitch a ride with you guys PLEAAAAASE! If the organizers know the number and kind of trips and the hours of driving you have done with easy, they wont even have the competition %u2013 they will just give you the prize! Are they giving the car also? Makes me want to participate!

Prem Chilaka

What I like about Raffi and Poorvi is not just their spirit of fun and adventure, but also their support for causes like environment, global warming and wild life as evident also by their blogs. Their GDC driving route supports these causes and that%u2019s what gives them the edge. Good luck to both of you!

satyakam

Raffi and Poorvi are an awesome twosome! They love anything that spells adventure and this driving challenge is very apt for them. I am positive they will win this and along the way, win many hearts and fans.

Elango

Poorvi and Raffi %u2013 you folks rock! You guys have gone through so many treks, travels, adventures and mis-adventures, accidents, disasters, hindrances, mishaps, that this will be a cakewalk for you! Added to that, your blogging skills %u2013 adding masala to mundane things and making them sound ultra-interesting! %u2013 photography skills %u2013 build a story from your discrete photos %u2013 and your ability to achieve whatever it is you set out to achieve make you guys the most suited for this kind of an event. My wishes and votes are with you!

Amaran

I stay with Raffi since last 6 years and we are good friends more than last 10 years. He is passionate in driving, some time never informs me where he is going out! Most of the long distance trip I have accompanied with him, he is very cool and super up in driving, he manages himself even though its long distance and continues driving, quickly replacing the tire in the face of breakdown! He keep ups his body fitness too consciously :-) All the very best! Rock it

Hecate

I've known Raffi since a while now and feel that he is a very determined person, loves adventure and multi-talented. He's ever-ready to go out and explore new places and have fun at the same time. Wishing you and your partner the very best in this race to get to drive the Cedia :)

Kishore

Oh Raffi is one of my good friends, we are working together from last 6 Yrs. He is fun loving and dedicated guy. Even in work and in his personal things. He would like to do more and more adventures. Finding out Raffi during weekends in bangalore is very very tough. he will be busy in trek and travel, and he enjoys his driving. He is so much dedicated and patient. We had been to many trips in India and in USA... In India long trips were to Pondy and Kemmangundi. He use to drive and he is a wonderful driver. One experiance is in hill station areas like kemmangundi, plain areas like Pondey. In USA, my driving experience with raffi is in express ways and travelled from Newyork to Nayagara. I can honestly tell you guys: He is a smooth, careful and wonderful driver. We travelled more than 3000 Kms in his car.

Mani

With all your skills, talents and passion, I can%u2019t think of a single reason why you wouldn%u2019t be driving the Cedia for 10 adventurous days! Go guys, go!

rajesh

The two of you together travel a lot, are good drivers, photographers and bloggers, but what differentiates you is the determination you have to win and you will WIN this!

Nagaraj Chappalge

Hey Raffi, I checked out your blog and pictures on flickr. Both are awesome! You%u2019ve traveled places! I am positive you will win this, but good luck anyways.

Naveed

Raffi is an amazing, amazing person. He is one of those people who is always jolly and seems to be relaxed and laid back but at the same time, he somehow gets 100 things done each day! He has energy for whatever interests him, and my goodness, there are a LOT of things that interest him. Exploring India is just one of those things and man will he enjoy driving around the forests of MP! All the best Raffi and Poorvi!

Akshay

The pics from ur old trips are fab, the causes you 2 support are laudable, your travel plan is just excellent, and I for one will be waiting in anticipation for your on-the-road updates as you drive thru these awesome locations. Hope to see more of your considerably excellent photography skills on display as you visit the picture-perfect locations you mention. Most importantly, you 2 genuinely come across as a team that just believes in cutting loose and hitting and enjoying the road, everything else be damned. I have my fingers crossed for your team. Best of luck with this trip.

Jagadeeshpandian Balakrishnan

Hey dude! You are simply the best, i hope you win this challenge. I don%u2019t know anyone else who gets up like a shot to go anywhere or do just about anything. Trekking, blogging, helping friends...you somehow end up doing so many things which are meaningful to you. Because of your inspiration, I started following my own interests too and now my weekends are much more interesting. If anyone deserves to drive around for ten days on an all expense paid trip, it%u2019s you. You are just the NICEST person I know. * We had good exp @ SilentValley and @ kerala meenmutty falls...

Nalini

I met poorvi at the horse riding course and the reassuring thing about her being at the course was, that she seemed to be even more frightened of the horses than me! And still there she was, gamely wanting to overcome her fear and enjoy horse riding. And she did! That%u2019s poorvi for you. She tries her hand at everything. And she makes sure she throws in something or the other in her bag of things to do, which make the world a better place. Volunteering for NGOs, or just simple things like helping friends %u2013 you can count on poorvi to come up with what it takes. She loves travelling and one of her active social circles is the women that she met on her trips with WOW (women on wanderlust). I really hope she wins this challenge and goes travelling across India!

Neela

Raffi Good luck. I know him from past 8 yrs .He is a wonderful person and very good friend of mine. He has all kind of qualities required to compete this challenge. Good luck and we are their to support u always. :) cheers.

Chandan

I came to know Raffi at the horse riding course and the more I came to know him, the more hidden depths I discovered. He is like a still pool in which waters run deep. He is so quiet and humble but he and his friend Elango fast became the inspiration for the rest of us. He would take videotapes of us on the horse and show them to us later so that we could see where we were going wrong. That was invaluable. He also ended up accompanying no less that 6 people, separately, to buy breeches from the Army store so that they could get a discount. He must have spent much more than the discount, on petrol itself. And so many more things like that. As you can see, he really is one of those NICE guys who do things for no other reason but to help. He is truly amazing.

Rajakumari

You guys are excellent in all that this contest demands - driving, blogging and photography. Go and win this!

Sajani

Hey poorvi, somehow i%u2019m not surprised to find you part of this contest! You are always doing something or the other that%u2019s fascinating. I love your sense of adventure and find it totally inspiring. From you i%u2019ve learnt that adventure is not about packing your bags and going on a trip, but it%u2019s about your attitude to life itself. Hats off to you and ALL THE BEST TO WIN THIS CHALLENGE!!!
