Description
It is an eco-guesthouse situated in a remote and beautiful jungle-village near Madi in Chitwan National Park, Nepal. It is a traveler's dream project, build with the intention of holding space for all peace seekers; and thus alcohol based parties etc. are not promoted here. It is a great place to learn the ways of the village and the ways of the jungle. Also there is a beautiful sundeck with a grand view, wherein you can do your practices. We also have very clean air, water and absolutely no sound pollution, it is the last village before the jungle and the last property in the village.
The whole project is a solo traveler's dream. You could appreciate the simple and slow living with the indigenous communities here, who are very welcoming, respectful and loving. Now, as almost all of the construction is getting over, I need support in taking this forward. We need to setup a farm. We need people with lots love and groundedness. We could have have yogi here too. The dream is to assemble the jungle tribe! :)
Our current team of two consists of Deedi and Me (Niyaz - project Owner). Deedi is in charge of the kitchen.
