Indian roots. A life built in Iceland.
Abhishek “Abhi” Chauhan is an Indian hospitality entrepreneur and community organiser who has lived in Iceland since 2014. His work connects food, cricket, local life and the Indian community in Iceland.
Hospitality became a bridge between two countries.
Abhishek trained and worked across India, Switzerland, North America and Iceland before building his own hospitality business. The useful part of that journey is not a collection of titles—it is an understanding of what visitors need when they arrive somewhere unfamiliar.
