by Vaishnavi Venkataraman

Growing up in Canada, Chantal had a fun outdoorsy childhood- however, she never dreamt of becoming a travel enthusiast. Yes, she was passionate about cars and bikes, the sound of the engine thrilled her, but she always wanted to become a criminal lawyer to help people. However, fate had something else planned for her.

Meet Chantal Asaad, more famous as the women on the travel series – The Open Road. One of UAE’s first Hijabi women to ride across the country, Chantal is a rebel with a cause. Here, in a friendly tete-e-tete with CT Dubai she shares the smooth and rugged roads of her journey.  Watch the video now to find out!

Research, science labs and of course nerdy glasses – that’s what my life was all about until I finally woke up to realise how much I loved food, travel and telling tales. A chai addict, a moody writer and mother to a smallie, my journey as a writer began with The Times of India. And now, here I am in Dubai pursuing my passion and exploring a new city, all in one go!
