Meet Astrid

YourGuide Destination Consultant

Bangalore Destination Consultant, Astrid, has a wealth of experience – over twenty years encompassing roles in the hospitality & service Industry, administration, customer relations, client services, marketing & business management. For ten years she founded and ran her own beauty salon in Damman, Saudi Arabia, before relocating to her native India and settling in Bangalore.

After nearly two decades in Bangalore, she is well aware of the startling pace of development and change in India’s ‘silicon city’. ‘There are all sorts of pitfalls and challenges when moving here,’ she reports, ‘from the almost daily-changing housing prices to all the hidden drawbacks newcomers will not be aware of, - for instance, buying a house in a certain district may add hugely to her journey as opposed to a neighboring district because of the road and traffic lay-out.’

It is details like that, plus an awareness of many of the cultural challenges that people have to face on first arrival, that informs her work with assignees.
