Who we are

Our Story

We grew up between France, Singapore, Australia, Canada, Indonesia and the UAE, with Sydney being the city that brought us all together for college. Although our grades were sometimes questionable, as opposed to our class-topping cousins in India, we checked off our parents to-do list by getting brown-approved degrees and working in tech.

And over the past few years, we've been lucky enough to coordinate time off for travelling, forming memories of a lifetime. Trekking an Active volcano on Indonesia’s Lombok island, stacking it on the ski slopes in Sapporo, taking a bartending course in Greece’s Aegean Islands or even getting a solo skydive license on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, we’ve been fortunate enough to document and live this dream.

Badoosh is the next step in our journey. We've created badoosh to bring more South Asians on our adventures.

Our diaspora is present in every corner of the globe, rooted by heritage and global through our cultural experiences. So whether home is Mumbai, Melbourne or Manhattan (I would’ve said Brampton and Southall too but it ruins my beautiful alliteration) come be part of our amazing network of like-minded individuals that want to get out of their comfort zone. Who knows, you might answer some of life’s big questions, meet a new best friend, travel buddy or even a life partner!

Kisi mahan purush ne kaha tha ki Zindagi na Milegi Dobara. So come, book in a chat over chai with us and help redefine travel for our community.

With love and adventure,

Survived countless aunties asking 'What are you doing with your life?' to become a qualified doctor and engineer.

Engineering itineraries and prescribing holidays, that is! Same to same right?

I've mastered the art of cultural immersion, delivered with the relaxed efficiency of 'Indian Standard Time.'

I'll soak in the local vibes, but only after a leisurely morning and a strategic assessment of the most comfortable and convenient way to get there

My mate in Cebu once unknowingly starred in his own one-man show, 'Awestruck Tourist Encounters Tiny Monkey.'

His performance, orchestrated by yours truly, gathered a whole crowd around a random tree, while I got the tiny Tarsier monkey all to myself for photos. Priceless.

I said "Chai Tea" once... They made me do 200 push ups to apologise.

I've just been drinking Earl Grey ever since because I'm too scared to make that mistake again!
