About Me

I am from the Himalayas of Nepal, I love traveling and exploring around, I am traveling solo at the moment.

In Nepal, I also work for a travel company which my father runs, and I am also a travel guide for the mountains. I have been to the Everest region, Annapurna regions, Langtang, Manaslu and many other mountain regions of Nepal.

We also run Airbnb and hotels where we have hosted people from all over the world. We also have few other business in hospitality that my father runs, where he also does a lot of social work and community service projects. I specialize in marketing, so I help him for marketing.

My father also speaks Spanish very well, where as I am still learning to become a fluent speaker. Other than Nepali, I also speak English, Hindi & Spanish.

I love to explore different places, make new friends, and most of all I love to travel.

Right now this is my first trip to this southern part of India and it would be my first visit to the sea. I would love to meet many people and network with them. I would also love to try some adventure water sports, which I am not sure if I can do without any trainings though.

About my travel, I do not have any fixed plans yet and would be exploring the sea and beaches mostly in South India at the moment.

I would love to share my experiences and stories. I am a very simple person. I do not drink nor smoke, plus I am a vegetarian, and also spiritual. I follow the principles of Sanatan Dharma (Hinduism) but at the same time I also respect all other religions.
