“Our passion is to travel the world and experience it like locals where possible. We Like to travel as Travellers Vs as Tourists and Experience Places like locals by staying at small locally owned/operated bed and breakfasts as homestays with locals . We also prefer to travel to places that are off the beaten path, less touristy and prefer unexplored places — Ali and Dilshad Karim.
