Audrey
In Marketing and Communication
Passionate about travel and discovery since childhood, I have explored Asia, North and South America through my job as a production manager for over 15 years.
The grey skies of Paris led me to settle with Shanti Travel in India, my heart's country for many years, where I managed our local office. Almost 3 years later, I decided to return and since then, I’ve dedicated all my energy to promoting and developing Shanti from our office in France.

Laure
In operations
20 years ago, I founded my own travel agency in the Caucasus, in Georgia. Later, I coordinated French-speaking agencies in Russia, Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Ukraine. Working with local teams is my passion: these men and women on the ground transform your journey into an unforgettable experience. In 2022, a memorable trip to India deeply moved me. I discovered a new, fascinating world. Today, I am proud to support the Shanti teams across Asia.

Manon
In finance
Since I was young, I’ve had the chance to travel with my family to all continents, and my passion for travel quickly developed! My skills led me toward finance, and my studies took me to London. In 2017, I moved to Asia, where I joined our Bali office, then the Vietnam office, where my bond with Shanti and its teams strengthened through my experiences in almost every department of the company. Back in France, I still juggle budgets, Excel, and carefully hold the key to the safe, while always making time for travel!

Quentin
In creation
I had the chance to land at Shanti right after my studies, in Sri Lanka. From the very first days, I felt the incredible energy and passion that drove the entire team. It seems that this passion for Asia, for travel, for Shanti was passed on to me with such intensity, as it hasn’t faded one bit in the last 6 years. From Sri Lanka to the Caucasus, I experienced beautiful immersions before returning to France. I am now in charge of production, ensuring that every new trip created is infused with the Shanti DNA.

Rajesh
In innovation
My name is Rajesh, born in New Delhi, with family roots in Rajasthan. My journey with Shanti is quite exceptional. I began my career with a great passion for the travel industry on March 16, 2006, joining the team as a driver-guide. Later, I trained and specialized in the fields of IT and management. For 19 years, I have turned my passion for travel into my profession, while developing a particular expertise in IT sophistication, as well as administration and management. My strong interest in the continuous improvement of IT systems, combined with my skills in administration and management, drives me to always seek innovation in the inspiring travel industry.
Gayan
In IT and development
I was born in Kandy and joined the Shanti team in 2010, on the day our Colombo office opened, while finishing my degree in IT and engineering. I started my career as an IT administrator, and then quickly progressed to become the IT manager for the office. Later, I took on the role of managing IT for the entire Shanti Travel group, and since 2020, I have been the IT manager and project manager. Since last year, I have also been the General Manager of the Shanti Travel office in Colombo.
I have the pleasure of collaborating with people from all over the world while developing numerous areas of expertise, but my passion is always driven by the screen!
Komang
On the ground
I was born in Bali, and my life philosophy is based on three essential elements: preparation, opportunity, and luck, a wisdom passed down by my beloved father. I am 42 years old, married, and a father of a daughter and a son. My career began after I graduated in tourism in 2004. Through my extensive experience as a field manager in tailor-made travel agencies, as well as in group travel and corporate event trips, I’ve learned a great deal about both organized and individual travel. I had the chance to meet Shanti in 2017, and I now work as the Operations Manager for Indonesia, where I can apply all my knowledge while discovering sustainable travel solutions.
