Apsara is a woman who welcomes you like her own child. She takes great care of everyone and I am so grateful to have her as my first host in Nepal. Here you can get a realistic look and feel how it is in a nepali household. the children at the orphanage bring me so much joy. I really really enjoyed spending my time with them and so happy I can call them my brothers and sisters. just so you know she will feed you so much so you will have to say you have enough before you are really full because she will try to feed you like you have 3 stomach 🥰 dhanyabaad didi 🙏🏼

My stay in homestay with Apsara and her family was simply amazing. Their hospitality and warmth truly touched me. Additionally, my experience at the orphanage was very enriching and allowed me to have unforgettable moments, I will miss these child's a lot !! I highly recommend this experience to anyone looking to discover the true beauty of this country. I was supposed to stay for only a week, but ended up staying for 3 weeks due to the incredible welcome and unique experiences I had. I went every morning in the yoga center and the afternoon I stayed with Childs for homework and play.

Apsara is such an incredible host wow! From the minute I met her she really did everything she could to make sure I had the best stay possible: driving me around, helping me to organize activities and coming with me. She cares so much about what she does and she really cares about her volunteers. She and her family also made me feel safe and welcome in her home! I couldn't recommend this more!

Apsara is wonderful and has a heart of gold. She took care of all the volunteers with such kindness and is incredibly inspiring in her story of her past 30 years starting the NGO orphanage of kids/families who are affected by HIV/AIDS. I am so grateful for this experience and could go far beyond the 600 character limit of this review. The volunteer schedule is accommodating to your needs, and Apsara also offers the optional opportunity to guide you around Nepal as well! Nepal and Apsara's place is beautiful, food is amazing!! Thank you to Apsara and the beautiful community for your hospitality

Apsara is the most amazing & inspiring woman. She quickly made me feel at home in Nepal, and helped getting the most out of my Nepal experience. I worked at the hostel (orphanage), which is a 10 minute walk from her house. In the morning, I got there from 7.30/8 till 9.30 to help the kids with their english (and maths) homework. In the afternoon, we came back to help the kids with their homework from 16.30/17 till 18.45. The hours were flexible, and the children were just so amazing and social! Moreover, Apsara helped us plan any trips or things I wanted to do. I would really recommend it!
