Hello,
I'm Sriram(You can call me Ram). I was born and brought up in Delhi, but I trace my roots down south to the state southern state of Tamil Nadu. I recently graduated as an Engineer from IIT Madras and I currently work with a consulting firm in Delhi.

I am an open-minded and friendly guy who loves to travel and experience different cultures. I enjoy good food, music, football, swimming travelling and trekking. I am new to the concept of backpacking travel and it excites me to the core.

Pourquoi je suis sur Couchsurfing

Travelling is my passion and I believe that as a human being born on this beautiful planet, I must explore the world, meet new people, experience new cultures, help others learn about my culture and create memories to cherish for a lifetime. And I believe that Couchsurfing is the best way to get a first-hand experience of the local culture, get a peek into the everyday lifestyle and customs of the locals and at the same time manage travel costs.

Centres d'intérêt

I love to play a variety of sports and football is my favourite. I am a diehard fan of Liverpool FC, have been supporting them since 2007. Also, I was a competitive swimmer and water-polo player during my college days and I still enjoy it.

I've completed a few treks in the lower Himalayan ranges, the latest one being to Roop Kund, a high altitude glacial lake at 16,000 ft.

Scuba diving is the latest thing that I've caught onto. During my recent trip ( Dec 17) to Thailand, I went diving at the Phi Phi Islands ( Koh Bida Nok to be specific) and the experience was beyond my imagination (pics in the album).

Une aventure extraordinaire que j'ai vécue

I trekked the Kedarkantha, a peak in the lower Himalayas ( 13000 ft) in December 2016. It was a 5-day trek during the peak winter season, with freezing temperatures as low as -10 C. On the summit day, we started out at 3 in the morning under a sky lit by stars and plodded our way to the top to witness the sun rising above the great snow-clad Himalayan peaks and a view so beautiful that words can't describe. It was one of the most thrilling, exhilarating and eye-opening experiences of my life!

Enseignez, apprenez, partagez

I can teach you how to swim and play water polo. Also, I can share a thing or two about trekking and camping, Indian culture, basic science, technology, and a variety of other things.

Learn - I want to experience the various cultures of the world, learn different languages, soak into the beautiful landscapes that mother Earth has to offer.
