Description
We are a couple running a top-rated hostel on the ridge of a mountain in Kasar Devi, 10 kms from Almora (Uttarakhand). Nestled in front of mystical Himalayas, our hostel offers you a calming experience with beautiful sunrise & sunset views. We have a plant nursery, common area, bakery, souvenir shop in-house.
We are looking for volunteers, interested in being part of our upcoming projects, for which we are looking for volunteers such as Macrame artists, Painters, Social media experts, Influencers, Graphic designers, Shopify expert, Yoga practitioners, Musicians, Hostel Operations.
We have a full & part-time team to take care of the kitchen, maintenance & housekeeping work.
Kasar Devi is amongst the most beautiful weekend getaways from Delhi and nearby places. It is located at an altitude of 6000 feet (approx.) above sea level.
Kasar Devi got its name from the famous KASAR DEVI Temple - This temple has an enormous geomagnetic field as it is positioned on the Van Allen Belt. The other two geomagnetic places on the planet endowed with similar cosmic energy are Machu Picchu in Peru and Stone Henge in England.
Kasar Devi has been visited by many famous personalities like:
Swami Vivekananda, Bob Dylan, Cat Stevens, Timothy Leary, Uma Thurman, George Harrison, D.H Lawrence and many more.
Kasar Devi’s abundant natural beauty has drawn writers, artists, spiritual leaders, and eccentrics through the years.
