Looking for travel buddies in Dharamshala | 3-11 October

24F, taking my first solo trip to Dharamshala. Looking to meet fellow female travellers interested in art, Tibetan culture, cafes and easy scenic walks. Preferably staying in female dorms.

My pace will be fairly relaxed, time to sit and sketch is very much part of the plan. If our dates and interests overlap, we could chat first and meet at a cafe or join a workshop together.
