After around three weeks with Nandini and Babu, we got to experience very much from Indian culture, especially from the north. We got to learn to make Indian food, some dances, homemade things for having a good health with Nandini. Got told many cultural stories from Babu and he showed us many places we wouldn't known about without him. Last, but not least good company with the family. It was a really good experience to live with an Indian family. From the second we met them, they were very welcoming and they made their home our home. We ended this stay, going on a amazing trip with them!

My stay with Nandini was an amazing experience Totally recommend to anyone who wants to immerse herself in local culture. We got to get to know the domestic life, to learn how to cook amazing food with Nandini, and Babu took us to see awesome places in the area that I never would have known of otherwise

Nandini and Babu were kind and welcoming hosts. It was wonderful cooking with Nandini and learning so much about the local culture, cuisine, and Indian dance. Babu took me around, patiently answered all my questions, and allowed me to explore topics I would otherwise never have understood so deeply. A truly beautiful experience — highly recommended!

Nandini and Babu always tried their best to make the most out of my stay, sadly there were not many opportunities of things to do on the weekdays where babu had to work, so we mostly stayed at home and cooked, wrote down recipes, talked about the culture or let nandini teach us new things like dance steps or medicine. On the weekend Babu showed us his cow farm where we could try to milk the cows ourselves, took us on a the home safari, showed us Bikaner and went to the Tempel with us. I learned how to cook many different things and really, nandinis food was the best of all my travels.

A life transforming experience! From the second one Nandini and Babu made sure that everything was perfect in my stay, from having my favourite fruits and drinks at home, to travelling and meeting everything on my list. They became a second home to me along with their two children who are just as kind and attentive. Spending time in the kitchen with Nandini really is amazing, it is an experience to relax, unwind and totally immerse yourself in the culture. It is an experience not to be missed and simply amazing. I now have a family in India 🤍. Thank you for everything!
