Our property, a lush 20 acres of beautiful trees and greenery with 17 cottages, incorporates elements of traditional Ladakhi culture with a commitment to sustainability eco-friendly tourism.

  Kultureller Austausch und Lernmöglichkeiten

  This work exchange will give you a lot of freedom to be creative and develop your own style, while also exposing you to the inner workings of a luxury eco resort. Since we are situated in one of the most authentic villages of Ladakh (not on the busy tourist side of Hunder, but on the other side of Nubra Valley), you will learn a lot about the local culture. The job also requires you to learn about our valley, so we will make sure that you build a solid understanding of local culture and customs. We are a creative, collaborative team that wants to build a positive experience not only for guests, but also for our staff and volunteers.
