VIDEO: MEET HUSNA, OUR FEMALE TAXI DRIVER IN MUMBAI
India doesn't have many female taxi drivers. In Mumbai, there are only about 50 of them.
But, thanks to a partnership between our hotel, Abode Hotel in Mumbai, and a NGO that empowers women, Husna Siddique came to pick us up at 1:30 in the morning at Mumbai International Airport.
She's a single mother of two who's managed to save up enough money, buy her own car, and start her own taxi business. Lotus Tours and Travels employs several other female drivers.
So, she's doing really well.
Husna says working the graveyard shift has its perks... no crazy Mumbai traffic.
