Aloha Volunteers!
Welcome to Uttarakhand, India.
Why Choose us?
1. Stunning Location
Nestled in the peaceful Himalayas, just 46 miles (75 km) from Rishikesh, offers a perfect blend of tranquility and accessibility. Enjoy the serene beauty of the Himalayas while being close to the vibrant spiritual and adventure-filled town of Rishikesh.
Our place has served many purposes throughout the years.
Originally built as a storage facility for farming supplies from the apple orchard, it was later repurposed as a primary school before being transformed into a cozy and comfortable retreat for travellers.
2. Creative Community
As a volunteer, you’ll contribute your art or music or words or green thumbs —helping to create a unique, inspiring atmosphere for our guests and yourself.
3. Cultural Experience
Engage with locals, explore the region's rich culture, and connect with a diverse community of travelers and fellow creatives.
4. Holistic Wellness
We encourage yoga, meditation, and mindfulness practices, allowing you to nurture your well-being while contributing to a meaningful, artistic project.
5. Unique Volunteer Experience: Unlike typical volunteer roles, this is a chance to engage in meaningful, creative work. Whether you're painting murals on the walls, hosting art workshops, or sharing music with guests, your time will be a unique and fulfilling experience that stays with you long after you leave.
6. Make a Positive Impact: Your contributions will not only enrich the lives of our guests but will also play a role in creating a chance to give back while doing something you love— helping others connect.
We feel that everyone has something to share. Please feel free to write to us for project details.

私は3週間弱、に滞在しました。
その中で、私は一生忘れない楽しく有意義な毎日を過ごしました。
まずは、何よりも”人”との関わりが最高でした。オーナーのYudishとNidhiはとても優しく、人間的にとても深い方達でした。2人と毎日のように、人生や文化、仕事のことなど様々な意見を交換する中で、多くの新たな発見や驚きがあり、毎日が輝いていました。また、SenjuとManneという現在大学生の私とほとんど年齢の変わらない2人といっぱい遊んだし、優しくしてもらいました。特に、この２人が作るご飯はすごくおいしく… read more

Thank you Sara.
