The Experience

Namaste! I'm Prashna. I work as a social worker here in Pokhara. As a child I did not have many opportunities and been raised in an orphanage made the difference in my life. Due to the kindness that was shown to me, I wanted to give back to my community and help children in the same situation, giving them a chance to have a different life. For this reason, I started this organization

I spent 2 weeks with Prashna's family and I had really great time and moments with everyone! They welcomed me as part of the family directly…🙏🏽 Very cool kids and dogs, we feel like home everyday so I haven't seen the time going! 🫶🏼 I recommend everyone who is looking for a social and local experience to come in this lovely family and share nice memories with everyone 🌞

I didn't realise that the place was an orphanage till arrival! Prashna has been making a great and valuable job taking care of those kids. Most of them are already teenagers. Sadly I met few of them because October is full of festivities and holidays so most of them went to the villages of their relatives to spend this days. Everyone there is very welcoming, and they even invited me to celebrate Dashain with them in beautiful Village, I really appreciate each day with them!

It was my first time volunteering and I enjoyed so much. Mr Prashna does a great good job with the kids, I felt at home since the beginning, everyone made me feel so included! The kids are great, they speak really good english so it's easy to help with homework. I also played with them, talked a lot with the older kids (they taught me so much about Nepal's culture, it was amazing) and helped a little with the cooking. The food is so good, the acomodation is great and the hours were good! Couldn't recommend it more!
