Meet Anshu Singh – Co-Founder, TOLO India

Co - Founder

Anshu Singh is the passionate co-founder of TOLO. A dedicated travel enthusiast and visual storyteller, she believes in the transformative power of travel when it’s rooted in authenticity, respect, and purpose.

Born in Jamshedpur and now based in Bengaluru, my passion for discovering new places and cultures has taken me across almost every state in India. With each journey, my desire to help others travel more meaningfully, safely, and deeply has only grown stronger.

The idea for TOLO took shape during a soul-stirring road trip to Spiti Valley with Abhijeet, my childhood friend. That trip wasn't just another travel story – it was the spark that lit a shared purpose: to build a platform that helps travellers connect with locals across India, experience its true essence, and feel supported at every step.

I bring over a decade of expertise in sales and marketing, paired with a free-spirited mindset with with a camera in hand and a keen eye for detail, I strive to capture moments that go beyond typical travel photography—focusing on authentic human connections, fading heritage sites, traditional crafts, and the untouched beauty of rural and urban India alike.“Photography for me is not just art, but a powerful tool to inspire, educate, and evoke change.”

You’ll often find my travel stories shared under @wandering_bunnies, where I hope to inspire especially women travellers to explore fearlessly and fully. “To all the women out there – travel and explore, for life is either a daring adventure or nothing at all.”

She aims to bridge the gap in sustainable tourism by encouraging travellers to embark on journeys with boldness, mindfulness, and respect. By sharing authentic experiences, cultural insights, and eco-conscious practices, her mission is to create a space where culture, creativity, and conservation come together.

She believes that when travel is approached consciously, it holds the power to deepen understanding, empower communities, and inspire a more thoughtful and compassionate way of seeing the world. Through TOLO, we aim to make travel more personal, authentic, and safe – by creating a community where every traveller, especially solo adventurers, can feel guided and at home.

Meet Rohit Kumar — Co-Founder of TOLO India

Co - Founder

Born and raised in the vibrant IT capital of India—Bangalore, Rohit Kumar always dreamed beyond the conventional path. While the city thrived on tech and innovation, Rohit’s heart was set on something more uncharted—the open road, distant horizons, and stories waiting to be lived.

More than just an avid traveler and storyteller, Rohit is a passionate explorer with a deep commitment to community-driven, culturally immersive adventures. A finance graduate (B.Com, Jain University) and MBA holder from Alliance University, he ventured through multiple business avenues before fully embracing his true calling—travel.

He began his journey by founding Chazing Sunsets, a unique travel company dedicated to curating bespoke road trip experiences that go beyond scenic drives. With Chazing Sunsets, Rohit has explored and shared the soul of India—from the snow-capped Himalayas to the cultural heartlands of Gujarat, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, and the enchanting North East. Whether it’s listening to the tales of Khajuraho or soaking in the sounds of Ziro in Arunachal Pradesh, Rohit has always focused on connecting travelers with local stories, traditions, and communities.

Just a year ago, during a vibrant TOLO India event, he met fellow travel enthusiast Abhijeet Singhania. What started as a casual exchange of travel stories quickly evolved into a shared mission: to make travel across India safer, more accessible, and deeply meaningful. Today, as co-founder of TOLO India, Rohit is helping build a dynamic platform that bridges travelers with local experts and authentic, unforgettable experiences.

With over 700,000 km driven across India and 32 countries covered by car—from Nepal, China, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Uzbekistan, and Russia to the very heart of Europe and London—Rohit dreams of circumnavigating the globe by car, sharing stories and inspiring a global tribe of road-trip enthusiasts.

Through every mile and memory, Rohit Kumar is not just traveling—he’s creating a movement where travel becomes a way to connect, discover, and transform.
