Description
I'm Arpan, an advanced open water diver, passionate trekker, and adventure enthusiast who's been living the dream in Rishikesh since 2017. I run a vibrant backpacker hostel, with locations in Rishikesh, Varanasi, and McLeodganj, where we welcome solo travelers, trekkers, digital nomads, adventure seekers, and spiritual souls.
When I’m not hosting or exploring new trails, you might find me enjoying the spiritual side of Rishikesh, exploring the Ocean bed, cruising on long rides with my adventure bike, or having a chill night out as an occasional partygoer. My dog is my loyal companion and together we add a touch of home to the hostel’s lively atmosphere.
Though I'm single, my family lives in Delhi, and I consider my hostel community as an extended family of like-minded travelers from around the world. Whether you’re here to connect with nature, find your spiritual path, or simply soak in the vibrant energy of these incredible places, you’ll feel right at home with us.
Come join us on this journey—let's make unforgettable memories together! live free.

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
Travellers can learn yoga and meditation at various centers in Rishikesh. As a host i can show them around Rishikesh. They can learn to cook local Indian dishes at our cafe. Travellers can also learn about local culture and religion.
Help
At the hostel we have a small team of people, but we can always use some extra enthusiastic help! I think it's a great opportunity for a traveler to contribute at the hostel and be able to stay in Rishikesh for a while.
The volunteers will be helping out mostly during the day. They can help in check-ins, guest engagement, local tours, housekeeping, organizing events and workshops, yoga classes, web designing, social media, art project, photography and cafe.
We are looking for motivated people (min age 18 yrs.) fluent in English to help us out and can contribute to a good atmosphere of the hostel.
