Lola Pasquier

Travel and food will always be an intrinsic part of Lola’s life. Growing up between Paris and London, she was equally happy tucking into North African couscous at her paternal grandparents’ table, Sole Meuniere in a busy French brasserie or a Wiener Schnitzel prepared by her German grandmother. Her fascination with Asia and travel began early when she heard of her grandfather’s adventures in India, Myanmar, and Singapore. Following a degree in Cultural Studies at Manchester University, she went on a 6-month trip that took her from Hong Kong to Bangkok via the Philippines, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand, Laos, Vietnam and Cambodia. Sri Lanka was her first professional love, and sharing it with others came naturally; it is still one of her favourite destinations. India was an obvious next step as a Travel Consultant. In her view, never has a country represented balanced chaos as beautifully as India - shifting in moments from jam-packed, raucous temple celebrations to total peace. Everything about India is an adventure, and all the better for it. She has spent time in Indonesia in recent years, bringing her experience and inspiration to this extraordinary archipelago. Always on the hunt for the best bowl of laksa, freshest banh mi or fiery momos, nothing can stop Lola once she’s set her mind to it. Buckle up!
