Another Volunteer's Experience in Changunarayan



Having a degree in International Studies and currently being a Master degree student in Local Development, I had been interested in global issues including poverty, mass migration, environmental degradation, etc. for several years. However, I realized that having an interest and theoretical background is definitely not enough if someone truly wants to make a difference. So volunteering abroad appeared to be a good way to gain some practical knowledge and experience because it gives an opportunity to go out of one’s comfort zone and challenge yourself a little bit. To read more follow this link.    .My eBook is available now at https://payhip.com/b/sQu5 If you are planning a trip to Nepal you'll enjoy it. It will save you time as well as money, but more importantly, it will help you to have a better time in Nepal. Many people wonder if they can eat the street food like in Thailand or Vietnam. 


Here's my spoiler alert: Do not eat the street food in Nepal, nor should you eat at any buffet. The eBook addresses such things as this and what to do if you become ill, etc. Whether or not you get my book, please read this short, free eBook. It will help you get your time here off to a great start. http://bit.ly/2aGxcuHIf there is a problem with the download or code please let me know at FrugalTravelsNepal@gmail.com

Our Lovely Volunteer Guests


Tourism is at an all time low here in Nepal, so it's a good time to go with the flow and do some planning for the future. I've decided to continue to use the guest house to host volunteers at no charge. Right now I have 5 who are helping in various ways to provide something for the people that they could not provide for themselves. Such dedication and open hearts are so wonderful there don't seem to be words to express my gratitude, shared by all of our neighbors here and in Saku.

Not only have these New Zealanders come with skill and kind hearts, but they have even raised money and will be helping some of the most needy of families in Changunarayan and Saku.


Here is Kerensa's blog post about their arrival in Nepal. The Wellness {R} Evelution

We also have a talented young man, Chris, who has put together a few videos for youtube. Here's the link to the latest movie: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kBObGazMihM

Additionally, we are fortunate to have Livio, our web developer come to Nepal to work on our thangka painting and wooden masks sites. He has it on Google's first page for several key words. 25% of retail price goes to support our projects. We can custom paint or carve your piece of art at no additional charge. The site is full of valuable information on this ancient art form. It is also an easy shopping experience where your satisfaction is guaranteed. Please visit Our community shopping site
