Sahran and Howard
Where they're from: Colombo , Sri Lanka
How they're related: They've been best friends for ten years. The 411: The two met through a series of coincidences that they swear is too complicated to explain. British-born Howard is an area manager for a British tour agency while Sri Lankan Sahran is an interior decorator and events manager.
Their strengths: Sahran is a typical Aries, who lives in the moment and makes decisions on the spot and Howard is a typical Taurus, who needs to think about things for a long while before he can decide. Howard calls the result "the seesaw effect"--if one is up, the other one is down and vice versa. Sahran and Howard see this as a strength, allowing them to pick the other up when he is down. The two have also traveled extensively together and are strong advocates of travel. Sahran says, "People's problems come from their lack of understanding of other countries and civilizations in the world. The more people travel, the more understanding they generate within themselves." Howard adds, "Our team's advantage is our sensitivity to the people and the environments we go into."
Their fears: Missing the comforts of home. Howard says he gets grumpy if he doesn't have regular meals and Sahran likes having a shower every day.
Their strategy: To be motivated by new experiences and the excitement.
Why you should root for them: Because diversity is sexy.
