Description
Hi! I am a professional freelance illustrator, wall mural artist & Yoga Instructor. I seek the beauty of raw nature, immersion in authentic culture and quiet reflective time.

I also have an experience of over 3 years in design, set up & managing Backpacking Hostels.

I love wildlife and birds, flowers and trees and creating art. Nature has always been close to my heart and I would like to be part of environmental conscious/wildlife conservation activities.

You will often find me quietly contemplating nature.

I have been workawaying (off and on) since 2019, travelling around India and Southeast Asia and it has been an amazing experience. I'd love to continue to give it our best to help the community that will help us see the world we live in!

I stayed at this hostel in Rishikesh for 1 and half month. I was staying in a dorm with a balcony with the view of mountains. Samarth is fun to Hangout with. We used have so much fun together. We sometimes used to go to the local market and local sight seeing together. I absolutely loved my stay.
