I’m Sahil, from Kashmir — a place that teaches you silence, patience, and depth whether you ask for it or not.

I’m someone who observes more than I speak. I like understanding people, places, and patterns beneath the surface. I ask a lot of questions — not out of doubt, but out of curiosity. Life, consciousness, suffering, faith, science, silence… these things genuinely interest me.

I come from a background that made me mentally strong early in life. Loss, responsibility, and change shaped me, but they didn’t harden me. If anything, they made me calmer and more grounded. I don’t chase fame or noise; I care more about meaning and helping quietly where I can.

I’m deeply interested in spirituality, meditation, philosophy, and science — not as separate things, but as different languages pointing to the same truth. I read writers like Kafka and Dostoevsky, not for entertainment, but because they understand the human condition without sugarcoating it.

I’m also practical. I work as a professional guide, do hiking, enjoy long walks, meaningful conversations, and sharing food or tea. I’m mostly vegetarian, simple in habits, and respectful of personal space. I value honesty, boundaries, and depth.

I may seem reserved at first, but I open up naturally when the conversation is real. If you want to talk about life at 2 a.m I’m your person.
