Descripción

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 soon

Sriram was a great help in our very overgrown gardens, pulling out weeds and then mulching areas that really needed it. He also took our dogs for walks most days. Thank you, Sriram for introducing us to various temples in our area AND in other parts of the US that we had no idea of their existence. He got out to see our area,going on hikes and … read more

I was again very fortunate to have chosen an excellent Workaway. Everything was perfect: location, host, work, food, personal time, accommodation...The host Didi is one if the kindest and most caring human being I have ever met.

Work was reasonable and not very hard, most of it in the garden and property grounds, weed-wacking. Didi made sure … read more

He ensured that I worked only the daily work hours. In fact, he gave me the flexibility to choose the number of hours I worked every day.

Sriram was the perfect volunteer and member of our community during his stay. He communicated well before the visit and during the visit.

We enjoyed having Victor (Sriram) stay with us and are grateful for all his help around here. Despite straining his back early on and taking it easy for a few days, Victor was able to catch up and get a lot of stuff done for us, including weed whacking, weeding, pruning trees, helping to fill in pot holes in our driveway and putting rocks along … read more

I have had an incredible experience with Workaway so far; my 4th host was as good as the first three.

Victoria and Tim are one of the most considerate, kind and accommodative hosts one can ever hope to meet. What particularly appealed to me is their policy of allocating tasks to workawayers and letting the workawayers decide their hours and work … read more schedule. I thought it was a very smart move as it makes the workawayers feel more empowered and valued. This in turn results in more commitment, result-orientation and also, increased productivity/creativity.

Tim came to receive me late at night at the bus drop-off point, took me for some late night shopping for food, made sure I was comfortable in my camper. Next morning, I was taken on a tour of the farm and some of the ongoing projects were explained to me. In the next evening, I was invited to a welcome dinner. I was encouraged to set my own pace and schedule allocated tasks, according to me preference. There was no pressure/micro-management.

In the 2nd week, I suffered a back injury during a task. Victoria offered all support and help and urged me to take complete rest, until I recovered. Luckily, recovery was quick for me and i slowly eased back into work mode after 2 days of rest. There was no pressure to complete pending tasks. I took it easy for a day or two after resuming work and gradually upped the ante. I was allowed to be cautious and complete my hours the following week.

Tim took me shopping whenever I requested. I was also invited to a very enjoyable birthday party for 4 birthdays occuring within a few days. The other Workawayer was always very helpful/supportive, and always at hand whenever i needed help.

One weekend morning, Tim once drove me to Tucson city and i explored around. In the evening, Victoria drove me back to the farm. Tim also drove me to the bus station early morning on the day of departure. One of the nicest/coolest Workaway hosts you'll ever meet.

All tasks were reasonable/doable, with Tim/Victoria always around to guide. Once more, I got to learn new skills and get farm-work experience. I got more than enough time for personal pursuits. The farm offers all modern conveniences incl wifi. & abundant water.

Truly, a dream Workaway project. Right in the heart of the Sonoran desert, away from all the noise/clutter/chaos... ideal to relax, just chill, enjoy nature/solitude, meditation, yoga, star gazing, painting, reading, studying, researching, hiking, etc etc. Don't miss out on this one.

Sriram stayed with us for nearly 4 weeks in September 2023. During that time, he helped with removing plaster ceilings and a chimney from our old farmhouse, as well as cutting down trees and cleaning debris. Sriram had no previous experience with this kind of work, but he was eager and never complained - even when the tasks were dirty and tough. … read more
