About Ishq

IshqinaBackpack.com is a travel blog founded in 2006 by journalists and authors Sona Charaipotra and Navdeep Singh Dhillon to document our seven-month India backpacking adventure. Since then, it has evolved into a family travel blog covering destinations as varied as India, Abu Dhabi, Hawaii, and our hometown of New York City.

Joining us on our adventures are seasoned travelers Kavya, 14, and Shaiyar, 10, both of whom have been traipsing the globe since their toothless years.

Four years ago at this time, our then 6yo talked (yes, in #TimesSquare) about what she wanted to see in the American president — and kindness and humanity were her top requirements. She can’t #vote yet, so if you can, please do. #Vote for her and all the other kids who should be able to live in a United States that values, protects and treasures them as the future of America. Because kids like Kavya do understand what’s happening now, and how much it impacts what their world will look like.
