I'm Sriram(Victor) from India. I have been solo travelling frequently/globally for the past 14+ years. 50+ countries and counting... I have visited all 28 states and 8 union territories of India but still have lots more to cover...
I love exploring new places, meeting locals/other travellers, experiencing new cultures, volunteering & helping out as and when i can, and, generally soaking in all nice things every country/place has to offer.
I'm a non-smoker/drinker, mostly vegetarian and a mature/responsible traveller. I'm a healthy male in the early 60s, with a positive, humourous and cooperative attitude. I love the outdoors, enjoy physically-intensive work, spirituality, meditation, and, learning/trying out new things.
In my working career, I've donned many hats across several industry sectors. I'm now an occasional freelancer/independent consultant, but mostly just volunteer around.
Given the opportunity, I would love to spend time with you, learn, and contribute as much as I can. See you soonInterests
