Each reveals a little part of my personality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If we haven\u2019t met in person, I should probably warn you: there\u2019s still a lively, mischievous child in me! <strong>Cracking jokes<\/strong>, <strong>planning surprises,<\/strong> and occasionally doing something <strong>completely crazy<\/strong> are simply <strong>part of who I am<\/strong>. Perhaps that\u2019s why you\u2019re here, curious to discover the stories behind my journey so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Before becoming a tour guide, I worked as a chef at the Taj Hotel in Mumbai. <strong>Cooking was my first love<\/strong>, and it still holds an important place in my life. I sometimes even cook for my travellers during our trips. My grandfather once told me: <strong>\u201cYou can reach a person\u2019s heart through the tongue \u2014 with flavours or with words.\u201d<\/strong> The funny thing is, that advice seems to have been made for me: I can do both! Perhaps that\u2019s how I create experiences for my travellers that no one else could offer in quite the same way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Since 2009, I have accompanied travellers from many countries, most of them French-speaking. Over more than fifteen years, <strong>we have shared countless unforgettable moments<\/strong> \u2014 some moving, others surprising, sometimes completely unexpected and occasionally downright hilarious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here, I share some of those stories with you. If one <strong>makes you laugh<\/strong>, surprises you or even leaves you a little stunned, share it with your friends. And if you would like to become part of one of these adventures yourself, get in touch. <strong>We\u2019ll travel together and write an extraordinary new chapter.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As you may already know, my name is Abhimanyu Singh Chundawat \u2014 also known as your Guide Explorateur.
