  Descripción

  Hello, I'm Manu! Along with my family, I've lovingly crafted two charming homestays nestled in the heart of Rishikesh's splendour. Just 500 meters from the sacred Ganges, our homes are a sanctuary amid lush forests and majestic mountains. Picture yourself awakening to the serene whispers of nature, with the promise of adventure on hiking trails and the discovery of hidden waterfalls.
  
  A Creative Melting Pot: Our journey began two years ago as a dream to escape the urban bustle. Today, it has blossomed into a vibrant creative space. We invite volunteers to immerse themselves in an environment ripe with cultural and creative exchanges. Delve into the art of traditional Indian cooking, join soulful group meditation sessions, and partake in shared meals that are not just about food but about weaving stories and creating bonds.
  
  Skill Sharing & Cultural Immersion: Embrace the spirit of skillshare, from language exchanges to deep dives into Hinduism and the rich tapestry of Indian culture. Your unique talents and passions are the heartbeat of our homestay.
  
  Carpenters & Creators Unite: Are you skilled in carpentry? Join us in crafting enchanting tiny houses, each a canvas for your woodworking artistry. We're also looking for eco-builders, decorators, and landscapers to infuse our garden spaces with innovation and beauty.
  
  Gardening Enthusiasts: Green thumbs and nature lovers, we need you! Help us transform our gardens into lush, tranquil retreats for all our guests to enjoy.
  
  Contribute to the Homestay Life: Your help in maintaining the sparkle of our apartments for guest arrivals, and spreading the word with flyers, is invaluable. It's about creating welcoming spaces where travellers feel instantly at home.
  
  A Family Affair: This is not just my venture; it's a family affair. My mother, three dedicated helpers who've been with us for over three decades, and our seven delightful dogs complete our homestay family.
  
  Our Vision: It's simple – "My House is Our House." We aspire to create a home, not just for us, but for every traveller seeking a haven in Rishikesh. A place where you're not just a guest, but a part of our extended global family.
  
  Join us, bring your ideas, your stories, and let's together make Manu's Haven not just a stay, but an experience to cherish!
  
  NOTE: We are an inclusive family, and we offer a safe space to LGBTQIA+ persons and couples. We expect you to be the same.

  In this spiritual playground of Rishikesh, your time off transcends mere sightseeing – it's an adventure for the soul. Here's a taste of what awaits you:
  
  Enchanting Vistas & Spiritual Bliss: Imagine unrolling your yoga mat as the sun kisses the Himalayan peaks. Rishikesh, the global yogi's haven, invites you to stretch, breathe, and find inner peace in its serene ambience. Wander through the Beatles Ashram, where echoes of melodies blend with rustling leaves, telling stories of a bygone era of musical enlightenment.
  
  Thrill-Seeker's Paradise: Brace yourself! The Ganges isn't just a tranquil sanctuary; its wild rapids beckon the brave for heart-pounding white-water rafting. Leap off India's highest bungee and feel the rush of freedom, or pedal through hidden mountain trails, each turn a new secret to uncover.
  
  Cultural Kaleidoscope: Stroll through bustling markets, a riot of colours, fragrances, and sounds.

Join our impromptu cooking sessions under the stars, where stories and recipes mingle over open fires.
  
  Serenity Spots: Find your nook by the Ganges, where time slows down. Here, a book, a sketchpad, or simply your thoughts are the perfect companions as the river hums lullabies of ages past.
  
  Wanderer's Connectivity: Fear not, intrepid traveller, for although you're in the lap of nature, the world remains at your fingertips. Hop onto an auto-rickshaw for a local experience or hail a cab to tread off the beaten paths. Rishikesh is your oyster, and its pearls await discovery.
