  Beschreibung

  Hello Workawayers!
  We are a small family-run hilltop resort in Charikot, Nepal (about 5 hours from Kathmandu), surrounded by peaceful greenery and breathtaking Himalayan views. Our place is known for its calm atmosphere, homemade food from our garden, and a love for nature.
  
  We would love to host a horticulturist (or someone with solid experience in permaculture/organic gardening) who can help us make our vegetable garden thrive. We’re looking for someone who is not only passionate about plants but also has the knowledge to improve soil, design planting, and guide us toward a more self-sustaining garden.

  Unterkunft

  You’ll be staying in our family-run hilltop resort. You’ll have your own private room, simple but cozy, with clean beds, hot showers, Wi-Fi (good for staying in touch but not for heavy streaming), and quiet corners for reading or relaxing. We have large gardens and plenty of space to unwind.
  Meals are shared with our staff, mostly homemade Nepali food using fresh vegetables from our garden. We’re happy to cook together, exchange recipes. We bake our bread and make our own jams too.

  Was noch ...

  We are in Charikot, there are plently of public transport options to reach us from kathmandu, and we drive up and down ourselves often. If you can bring your ideas and knowledge and help the staff implement the necessary to make a proper vegetable garden, we would be thrilled.
  Regular buses and shared jeeps run daily from the capital, and we’re happy to guide you on the best way to get here. Once in Charikot, everything is within walking distance, and local buses or jeeps or tuktuks can take you further into the surrounding villages and mountains.
  During your time off, you can:
  Hike in the surrounding hills for panoramic Himalayan views
  Visit local villages and markets to experience authentic rural Nepali life
  Explore nearby temples and monasteries, some with incredible mountain backdrops
  Relax in our gardens with a book, practice yoga, or enjoy the quiet atmosphere
  Join local festivals or family gatherings if they happen during your stay
  Take short trips (by bus or jeep) to scenic spots such as Dolakha Bhimsen Temple or Kalinchowk, a beautiful hilltop pilgrimage site with breathtaking views
  The area is perfect for anyone looking to connect with local life while enjoying the mountains.

We have large gardens and plenty of space to unwind. Meals are shared with our staff, mostly homemade Nepali food using fresh vegetables from our garden. We’re happy to cook together, exchange recipes. We bake our bread and make our own jams too. We are a swiss/nepali family and we built the hotel in 2000 so it's been 25 years already. Our property is on a hill at 2000m altitude. We currently grow Plum trees, Kiwis, Carrots, Pumpkin, Green beans, Cucumbers, Potatoes, Chilly, Bittergourd, Cauliflower, Kale, Roquette, Rosemary, Parsley, Mint, Basil and plenty of flowers in the garden. Our staff have farming knowledge but limited to the food that they eat, local dishes, and are unfamiliar with the vegetables we serve in our international dishes, and also lack experience with separating the sections and rotating the planting to keep the soil healthy. We have plently of grounds that have potential and also two tunnels.
