A note from Nishu

A little story
behind the routes.

I started Chatpate Routes because I’ve always felt that travelling should be a little less predictable. Not just visiting the usual places, following a fixed itinerary and coming back with the same pictures everyone has.

I wanted to create trips where you discover a random little place, eat something ridiculously good, take the longer route just because, and meet people who were strangers when the trip began.

Basically, travel with a little more curiosity, chaos and chatpata-neess.
