Looking for a Travel Buddy / Volunteer Travel Partner
​
Hi everyone!
I'm 27F from Kerala and I'm planning a low-budget trip over the next few weeks. Rather than a typical vacation, I'm interested in backpacking, volunteering at hostels or eco-projects, and meeting new people along the way.
I'm currently between jobs and thought this would be a good opportunity to explore, learn, and gain new experiences while keeping expenses low. I'm also from a tech background (AI/Data Science), so I'm interested in places where I can contribute through digital skills in exchange for accommodation or meals.
I'm looking for like-minded people who:
\- Enjoy slow travel and nature
\- Are interested in backpacker hostels or volunteering
\- Want to keep costs low
\- Prefer meaningful conversations over partying
If anyone is planning something similar or has experience with volunteer travel in Kerala, Goa, or South India, I'd love to connect and hear your suggestions.
