The Experience
We are doing agro-farming in a quiet, spontaneous and beautiful village near Pokhara Valley. We have some chickens, cow, dog, goats and some vegetables and crops farming. We need some helping hands. Our farm is surrounded with some nice hills where we can go hiking. Caves are few minutes walk. Our daily routine consists of going on a walk with our dog, cutting grass for the cow and goats, helping in the kitchen and helping children with homework.

I stayed 10 days at this farm & felt very welcomed by the whole family. We played lots of games, learned some ukulele and cooked together. The work was fun. I experienced Tanka as a clear, patient instructor. I'm very thankful about everything i learned about the farmlife. Besides that I was able to learn some cooking and new games! My tasks were walking the dog ( which was the biggest challenge to be honest), feeding the animals, help with sudying, cutting grass and special tasks depending on demand and weather. I enjoyed the river, the view and all the butterflies and frogs:) thank you!

My time in the farm was absolutely amazing. The farm itself is located in a quiet mountain part of Pokhara with stunning view and crazy nature and a creak you can go and bath in the farm. I got to do all kinds of work like taking care of the cow and goats and just general things in the farm. And learned so much from my time there. Tanka the host was perfect and we worked together everyday and immediately became very good friends, with him and his beautiful family treating me like one of them I just felt like home and stayed more than planned with no days off at all.

I spent a wonderful 10 days on the farm! Tanka and his family are so welcoming and i had the most amazing time. There is so many different things you can do on the farm my favourite things to do were feed the goats and work in the rice fields. Also there is a stream you can go into to cool off when it's hot which is so nice. It's a lovely environment all the locals are super friendly. I would recommend this experience to anyone who is wanting to experience true nepali culture and eat good nepali food and of course to stay with the family!

I spent an unforgettable 8 days at the farm. I only wish i could have extended my time for longer. Tanka and his family welcomed me with open arms and really look after the volunteers. The work is light and fun with a lot of time to relax in nature, socialise with other volunteers and explore the local area. This was a very special experience for me and I have found my happy place in Nepal. I would recommend this experience to anybody wanting to connect with nature and experience life on a small family run farm! Thank you for everything, see you soon :)
