Toilets and showers are usually cold Nepali style, and the electricity supply in many places can be unreliable. We have lots of previous experience in looking after volunteers. Volunteers are given a simple room with very basic things.
Meals: Based on Nepalese dining customs, we provide two major meals a day plus tea and snack breaks. Tea is available if you like. Brunch is served around 9 to 10 am and is usually typical Nepali food, dal/bhat (rice, lentils, and vegetables). At around 3 pm local snacks will be provided on working days ( Monday, Tuesday, wednesday,Friday and Saturday). Dinner is at around 7 to 8 pm. The food is very simple vegan base but also extremely tasty and filling. Vegetables mostly comes from our own gardens. Fresh milk and curd are also provided if available.
