Sahar Zaman & Dhiraj Singh

Total Vote(s) : 44 | Total Testimonial(s) : 27

We are Sahar and Dhiraj. I am a news anchor and correspondent with CNN IBN while my husband Dhiraj is an independent artist and writer. We find ourselves to be travel soul mates because whenever we hop on to a bus, catch a train or take off on a flight for a holiday, I intuitively start logging our holiday by taking pictures while Dhiraj pens down our thoughts and observations while travelling which finally end up as travel pieces in his blog. Interestingly, Great Driving Challenge is about something that we have been doing all along in as many holiday trips that we have made in the past.

We are the best candidates because...

as travel mates we complement each other extremely well. While Sahar captures moments in her camera, Dhiraj collects memories in his head and later adds to them his unique poetic imagination turning out extremely readable copy on his blog and magazines and websites where he contributes. What's more we are disciplined travellers who travel light, are flexible about food and sleep and treat our journeys as education in transit and deeply profound experiences about human nature, places, culture and language.

Our Travelogue

Since the day we got married in 2007 we have done river rafting in Rishikesh, gone trekking in Naggar and Kasauli, been on a camel safari in Jaisalmer, almost gone skiing in Auli. Last year we travelled through Pakistan starting from Lahore and passing through Islamabad, Taxila, Peshawar and Karachi. We did most part of this trip on the road taking pictures of and tracking the trucks of Pakistan for a book on the same. Dhiraj on his own has been an avid biker and has done three biking trips with a biker group from Delhi to Ladakh and back. The first of these trip he undertook in 1999 soon after the Kargil war. In this trip the group passed covered the recently captured and shelled border districts of Kargil and Drass. Sahar on her has shot and produced travel shows for her channel on the world famous heritage sites in Egypt, beside shows on domestic travel on Ranikhet, Khandagiri caves (Orissa) and Jaisalmer.
