Get to know Karishma Patel
Karishma Patel's own answers from the pre-game cast profile CBS published before the season aired.
- Hobbies
- Experimental cooking, hosting theme parties, and reading travel blogs.
- Pet peeves
- Party poopers, girls who play dumb for attention, when the tire hits the curb while parallel parking, mansplaining, passive aggressive behavior, and PDA.
- Inspiration
- My parents. They are the most devoted people I know. They have taught me that the key to happiness is to never forget to choose it for yourself. They came to America in the '70s with a dream and achieved it all with hard work and determination.
- Castaway they say they are most like
- Natalie Anderson because she wasn't afraid to speak her mind, but also made a lot of really subtle moves that kept her on top. Brown girl power!
Alliances fans have named
Survivor never names an alliance on screen. These names, and who counts as a member, are how the fan community records the game rather than an official record of it.
