About me! Hi I'm Lakdasa but since most people find it hard to pronounce my name you can call me Lucky. I am an experienced salesperson in the Automobile field currently working for a premium brand in Sri Lanka. On my days off I like to travel and enjoy the beauty of mother nature, be it living or just the spectacular sights. I love to travel and explore new destinations that I have not visited and I would like other like-minded people to join me explore the world. I am a very considerate person but I would expect all my trip mates to be lawful and not harm the environment in any way. After all, we should only leave footsteps behind.
Details about the accommodation: We will be sharing a shared room and some places will be cabanas or villas. So expect to come ready to share a bedroom or a bed with trip mates. Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner will be included in the price. Since I am a teetotaler I will not be providing alcohol. You are free to bring your snacks for the road Let me know in the Q&A section if you have any questions!
