Description
Hello! My name is Anil, and I run a family-owned hotel near the entrance of Bardiya National Park. We are a warm and welcoming family that loves meeting people from all over the world. Staying with us will give you a unique opportunity to connect with locals, interact with travelers, and experience Nepalese hospitality firsthand.
Our hotel is located in a peaceful and nature-filled setting, just a 10-minute walk from Bardiya National Park. During your free time, you can explore the park (entrance fees and guided safaris are available at your own cost) or simply enjoy the serene surroundings.
As a volunteer, you can help in various areas, including gardening, plantation work, cultivation, accommodation assistance, administrative tasks, computing, and social media management. In return, we provide free accommodation and meals.
You'll be helping 4 hours a day, 5 days a week, with flexible timing in the afternoon or evening. We currently have three friendly staff members living on-site: a cook, a gardener, and a cleaner, all dedicated to making your stay comfortable.
