  Namaste and a Heartfelt Welcome from Nepal!
  My name is Garima, and together with my brother Gagan, our parents (both former English teachers), my sister-in-law who works as a nurse, and our cheerful little nephew, we'd love to welcome you into our home and share a genuine experience of Nepali family life.
  
  Our peaceful organic farm is nestled among green hills, fresh mountain air, and the simple beauty of nature. Here, life moves a little slower, conversations last a little longer, and people from different corners of the world come together not as strangers, but as friends. Whether we're sharing a homemade meal, working in the garden, sipping tea at sunrise, or laughing around a campfire, we believe the most meaningful travel experiences are built through real human connection.
  
  We're not offering just a place to stay—we're inviting you to become part of our family and create memories that last long after your journey ends.
  
  • A Little About Our Farm & Daily Life
  
  Our farm is a small piece of peaceful countryside where we grow vegetables naturally, without pesticides. Every day brings fresh air, birdsong, beautiful views, and the satisfaction of working with nature.
  
  A gentle stream flows nearby, the hills surround us with greenery, and life here offers a chance to slow down and reconnect with what truly matters.
  
  We also dream of starting a chicken farm in the future. For now, we focus on growing healthy food, caring for our land, and creating a welcoming space for travelers and volunteers.
  
  • Experience Real Nepali Family Life:
  Share meals with us, learn how to cook dal bhat, celebrate local festivals, and experience everyday life in a Nepali family. We speak fluent English and always enjoy learning about different cultures, languages, and ways of life.
  
  You'll be welcomed as a friend, included in family activities, and given the opportunity to experience Nepal beyond the typical tourist path.
  
  • Nature, Peace & Beautiful Surroundings
  
  Our farm is surrounded by lush greenery, peaceful hills, and a beautiful stream where you can relax, refresh yourself, and enjoy the calm rhythm of nature.
  
  Wake up to birdsong, breathe fresh mountain air, and enjoy sunsets that make you want to stay a little longer.
  
  • Campfire Evenings & Meaningful Connections
  
  During colder months and winter nights, we often gather around a small fire under the stars, sharing stories, songs, laughter, and meaningful conversations.
  
  Some of the best memories are created during these simple moments together.
  
  Special Places to Explore Nearby:
  • Saraswoti Statue – A peaceful place for reflection and beautiful views.
  • Shiva Temple – Reachable by a scenic hike or a short local ride, offering breathtaking views of the surrounding hills.
  • Hidden Stream – Crystal-clear water and a perfect spot to unwind and connect with nature.
  
  • What We Offer Our Volunteers
  A Comfortable Stay:
  Simple, clean accommodation where you'll feel cared for, comfortable, and at home.
  
  Reliable Wi-Fi:
  40 Mbps internet connection for staying in touch with loved ones or working on remote projects.
  
  Cultural Exchange:
  Learn traditional Nepali cooking, enjoy herbal teas from our garden, experience local customs, and share your own skills, stories, and culture with us.
  
  • How You Can Contribute?
  You don't need special experience—just a positive attitude and an open heart.
  
  We appreciate help with:
  • Organic farming (planting, weeding, harvesting)
  • Small building and repair projects
  • Gardening and land care
  • Sharing skills such as art, music, yoga, languages, photography, social media, teaching, or anything else you're passionate about.
  We believe everyone has something valuable to share, and we love learning from the people who stay with us.
  
  • Why Volunteers Leave as Family?
  Because this is not a hotel.
  Because this is not just a place to work.
  This is a home.
  
  A place to slow down, breathe deeply, connect with nature, and become part of a family for a little while.
  We don't simply host volunteers—we build genuine friendships. Many people arrive as guests and leave feeling like family.
  
  Come walk barefoot on the earth.
  Come share tea with us as the sun rises over the hills.
  Come spend evenings under star-filled skies.
  Come help our garden grow, and perhaps grow a little yourself along the way.
  We look forward to welcoming you with open hearts, good food, and unforgettable memories.
  
  With love,
  Garima and Family
  Nepal

  Unterkunft

  Your Home Away From Home
  
  During your stay with us, you’ll enjoy a comfortable and authentic experience on our organic farm. If you’re a couple, you’ll have a private room, while solo travelers will share a room with someone of the same gender. Each room is equipped with a light bulb, dustbin, and cozy bedding, including a Nepali-style mattress, bedsheet, pillow, and blanket. Feel free to bring a mosquito net or sleeping bag if you prefer. Our farm is located in a peaceful, serene area, far from the noise of the city, ensuring you get a restful night’s sleep.
  
  For bathroom facilities, we have shared toilets and a traditional Nepali-style bathroom for bathing, offering a unique cultural experience. If you’re looking for something even more refreshing, you can head to the nearby stream, where you can bathe surrounded by nature’s beauty.
  
  We have two options available for meal. First is you can prepare your own meal o4 if you want to enjoy authentic Nepali meal then you have to pay $6 per person per day for food and this is completely optional. If you prepare your own food then you didn’t need to pay anything.
  When it comes to meals, we serve traditional Nepali dishes made with fresh, organic vegetables from our farm. You’ll enjoy daal (lentil soup), bhat (rice), tarkari (vegetable curry), aachar (pickle), and more. We serve two main meals a day—around 9 to 10 in the morning and 7 to 8 in the evening. In the morning, a cup of hot tea or coffee awaits you, and in the afternoon (around 2 to 3 PM), you can enjoy tea with local snacks when available. Occasionally, we also offer milk and curd if we have them on hand.
  
  To stay connected, we provide free, unlimited 40 Mbps Wi-Fi. Just a minute’s walk from our home, you’ll find small shops selling essentials like recharge cards, biscuits, bakery items, and even beer if you’d like to enjoy a drink on the farm.
  
  As we are not financially strong at the moment, we kindly ask volunteers to contribute $6 per day per person for food (but this is optional, if you want to prepare your food by your own then you can prepare your food by yourself and if you prepare food for yourself then your stay will be completely free). This small contribution helps us sustain our farm and continue offering this unique experience to travelers like you.
  
  We’re committed to making your stay as enriching and comfortable as possible. Whether you’re here to work, explore, or simply unwind.
