Descripción
After working in various places in the UK this summer, I am travelling solo through Nepal, India, Vietnam and potentially more from September onwards!

I have been planning this for a while and will be taking it slow, so I am looking for workstays to extend my travelling but most importantly so I can learn, meet and get the most out of my time while travelling.

First on my list is Nepal!
I will be arriving early September and I imagine monsoon will last for a couple of weeks more, so would be looking for somewhere to work and stay before I begin travelling properly, ideally in the Kathmandu Valley area.

I have experience in hospitality, housekeeping, cleaning etc. I am also physically fit, a fairly good cook, good with computers and have some experience of working with children.

I'm happy to help teach and practice English. I'm working on my TEFL qualification and some experience in this would be much appreciated. I'm also keen to learn another language but nothing specific.

Que habilidades tienes?
Most jobs through my life have been in hospitality, service and admin, though I do have a degree which I'm hoping to do more with after I've travelled.

For example, before COVID, I was working away on a ski season in a hotel in Italy. This experience involved working with people of different backgrounds and speakers of different languages, service, teamwork and quick thinking, but also very physically demanding physical work like deep cleans (and closing down the hotel with a days notice due to a global pandemic...).

I'm no stranger to gardening and working outside either, having done volunteering for my local wiildlife trust. I'm also generally quite fit and physically able but also have a willingness to learn and try new things, especially on the side of farming, DIY, gardening etc.

Also, I have a lot of pets at home and have been with animals all my life, so opportunities to get stuck into animal care would also be appreciated.

We really had a great time with Alex. It was great to see his positive energy and eagerness to help in all the farm work. The motivation he had for learning about our culture and tea was great. We hope to host you again in the future!

When I found out what workaway was I had an idea in my head of what the 'perfect workaway' would be; Deepak and Kaushila's farm is pretty much that. A quiet and peaceful farmhouse tucked away from the roads and town, incredibly warm and welcoming hosts, surrounded by nature, a calm and laid back atmosphere and a good amount of volunteers from all… read more

Spent over a week here and was a great place to just be for a bit. I mainly helped out with maintenance and rooms but there is a range of stuff to help with and Shekhar is open to new ideas. The atmosphere was great and I always made friends with the guests who stayed. Shekhar is also a really good guy and a friend; I had to stay longer than… read more

We are very happy to have hosted Alex. He is highly motivated and adaptable to working in new environments. Having had no prior experience of working in this field , he quickly understood all aspects of the work. He have a very good communication skills, quick learning skills and also assist other volunteers :)

lovely family in a very quiet, remote and authentic area of Nepal. They made a great effort to exchange with me through teaching me Nepali phrases, showing me how they work and sharing their food with me. The work is good, enough to occupy you but not exhaust you, and it felt good to just live, help and work outdoors have going from place to place… read more

Lovely lovely stay. Tara, the host, is friendly, trustworthy and easy to get in with - the same goes for his family who were all extremely welcoming. They not only organised a chitwan tour for me but also picked me up and dropped me off a long way away and asked for nothing in return apart from what I was already donating as per the agreement of… read more

Lovely, safe stay in Kathmandu. The few weeks I spent here at the start of my time in Nepal really helped me get acclimatised. There was some work but the small amount left a lot of time to explore and also organise things such as trekking permits ( I was also able to safely leave some things st the homestay while trekking which took a lot of my… read more

Alex came to work with us at the start of our season and was a pleasure to have on the team. He’s friendly and enthusiastic, always willing to jump in and help out, and was great at seeing what needed doing and mucking in. He was super with the guests too, and a big hit with our toddler! We’d be delighted to welcome him back any time.
