Description

I charge people 8 USD per day as I have to provide them three meals and accommodation including Wi-fi, drinkable- water, electricity etc. I only have a small farm so that we can only provide few works per day. So to balance the cost of volunteers we will be charging them 8 USD. however we don't make any profit out of it.

I had a really good time in Nishal's house, a lot of sharing with the family and the volunteers. Also we had the time to visit the city, the temple and everything. I recommend this Homestay, I really appreciate my time here.

I found woofing very peaceful and a great way to meet lots of travellers. But I found it more like a cheap hotel than a woofing experience. If you want to have time to enjoy Kathmandu, it's perfect. The family is very flexible about a lot of things. But others a little less so and the atmosphere and sharing between the family is not very present. Too much tik tok. I often had the impression of being in a hostel rather than in a family and sharing beautiful moments together. Good value for money but not a family discovery.

Wow I was not expecting this,we of course didn’t want to disturb you while you stay all day in your room with your privacy.I think you will appreciate when you grow up.You should also be eager to talk and ask don’t expect us to do the whole part as you should also ask and try to learn.If you are not open how can we be?if you stay at other home don’t use other stuff without the permission like machine going rooms you are not allowed Paul. I did had things but I told you Infront not here!

I loved staying with Nischal and his family! I always feel hospitality. Nischal is very helpful and I always felt support during my trip. This experience is the great way to get in touch with local culture and to know about Nepali traditions and way of life. I was lucky to see the festival celebration and take part in ceremony which the family had in their house. Moreover Nischal took me on a motorbike trip which was truly amazing! The views were fantastic and we had no tourists and very less people around which makes the experience unique. Thank you for your kindness and hospitality!

I had an amazing time with Nischal and his family. It really felt like being part of their family. During Dashain festival they took us to their celebrations and explained more about their culture. Great to meet other travellers as well!!Would recommend 😊

Nischal and his family are the most welcoming and nicest people ever. They will cook you the best food and give you the best advice. They really took care of me when I got sick and were always ready to take me on an adventure. It's also a great way to meet backpackers from all over the world and sing karaoke with them and Nischal's dad. I also strongly advise you to go on a motocycle tour with Nishal or any treck he organizes 'cause it's a great way to discover the country. I'm truly gonna miss them and their lovely home <3
