  Descripción

  Namaste,
  I am Bishwo founder of the only hostel in Bhaktapur, We also own a Guesthouse next to the Hostel and farm land just out of town.
  
  (Please read our profile completely and carefully before sending us a request) 
  
  Our goal in this project is to be able to connect local culture and history to the travelers. We provide a place for travelers to call home, social volunteers who love to interact with our guests are important to keep the vibe alive.
  
  We organize and participate in social activities for guests, tours around historical monuments, nature walks, jamming nights, yoga classes, food tours and anything else our volunteers can offer.
  
  We have a on-site kitchen where we serve breakfast/lunch/dinner to guests.
  
  We have 2-3 lovely Nepali workers that help keep the hostel tidy and cook for guests, their english is limited but they are willing to learn new skills.

  Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje

  Bhaktapur is a historical city full of stories and monuments. I was born and raised here. I enjoy sharing my culture and city with travelers from a local prespective.
  
  I'm actively working on different community projects, charity's and networking with local businesses so you will have the opportunity to meet a lot of locals.
  
  We have many festivals in Bhaktapur and often enjoy walking around the city exploring with guests, drinking tea or grabbing a beer and sitting at the square.

  We need an all round handy woman or man to help with the upkeep in the hostel. Someone who has a great eye for detail and can take initiative. This could include changing bed sheets, keeping common areas clean etc.
  
  Switching from task to task daily may be required so being flexible and open minded is necessary.
  Please consider that our daily life tasks are not part of the working time. (We all cook, eat and wash & clean in our own home so please feel at home!
  
  We are sharing our life with our volunteers so it is very important to us who is joining our Family, therefore we always make a video call to know each other better before making our final decision.
  
  When applying, please tell us something different that sets YOU appart from everyone else and a idea you could contribute to the project.
