    Description

    Hello, my name is Pankaj. I live in a small village called Baragran near Manali in Himachal Pradesh. I am an apple grower and spend most of my time working in my orchards with my family.

    I also run a cottage for tourists, located about 800 meters from my home. From time to time, I welcome volunteers who can help with light work in the orchard or at the cottage.

    If you are looking for a peaceful, nature-based stay in the mountains, you are most welcome here. I can provide a comfortable room with a kitchen and private washroom.

    I enjoy meeting travelers from different parts of the world, listening to their experiences, and sharing stories about local life and culture.

    You are warmly welcome to stay with us and be a part of our daily life.
