Kishori & Karishma

Kishori Turner and Karishma Cordero are a team of Cousins on The Amazing Race 36.

The cousins often made mistakes with navigation and detail-oriented tasks in addition to easily becoming stressed when under pressure which left them mostly languishing at the bottom of the pack and surviving only due to mistakes from other teams. Their luck ran out in the 5th leg when Karishma struggled with the Roadblock, dropping them to last and were subsequently eliminated in 9th place.
