Choose to volunteer in Nepal and there are a variety of volunteer projects you can get involved in. Make a real contribution to the lives of deprived youngsters. Or live in a Buddhist monastery.
You’ll be living and eating with a Nepali family so you’ll have opportunities to experience the culture that you wouldn’t have if you were in a hostel. You’ll also be travelling to your volunteer place of work by foot or on a bus – more great ways to get a feel for the Nepal. If you want, you can have some typical Nepali clothing made especially for you so you won’t even look out of place!
Discover Nepal. You’ll have plenty of time to explore. It is full of breath-taking and spectacular natural views. This is Himalaya country – enough said.

Introduction to Nepal: 5 days
Next LegDestination info
Nepal is a country of superlatives. It’s in the Himalayas and the country has eight of the world’s 10 tallest mountains and 240 peaks over 20,000 feet. And, of course, it is home to Mount Everest, the highest point on earth (let’s give it its Nepalese name: Sagarmatha).
- Location: Kathmandu
This is your introduction to Nepal - its culture and language – and to the project you’ll be working on.
After arriving into Kathmandu your first few nights will be in a private house on the outskirts of Kathmandu where you can relax, shake off the jet lag and meet your fellow volunteers. You’ll spend the next few days learning about the volunteer project you’ve chosen, getting your head round a few language basics and finding out something about where you are. You’ll also meet and move in with your host family and get comfortable with them.

Teach children in a local school, children’s resource centre or childcare centre – in Chitwan, Kathmandu, Langtang or Pokhara
It’s really satisfying teaching these kids a new language. You’ll find them enthusiastic and friendly and funny and eager to learn and you’ll come away feeling that you’ve achieved something good.
You can also tackle basic science and maths and get involved in sports and games. You don’t need any teaching experience, but you do need to be a creative and patient sort of person and, of course, to like working with youngsters. We’ll help with a basic syllabus and some tips, but beyond that it’s largely up to you. The more resourceful and inventive you are, the more the children – and you – will get out of it.
Please note: While we will always take your preference on the type and location of volunteering into account this is dependent on availability and the needs of the various projects at the time of your stay.

Teach English to monks in a Buddhist monastery – in Kathmandu
This is something totally different – just too good to miss if you’re at all interested in Buddhism. You’ll not only be working with the monks, but living with them and you’ll have the opportunity to immerse yourself in Buddhist culture on this unique volunteering experience.
You don’t need any teaching experience. As a volunteer you’ll be working with intelligent and educated adults, so you should have good written and verbal English and you’ll need to be flexible and patient.

- Location: Chitwan
You’ll arrange the precise schedule for your volunteering projects in Nepal with the people you’re working with. There will be plenty of time for you to explore this amazing country and get to know its people and something about how they live.
The trip includes a three-day visit to Chitwan – location of Nepal’s first national park. If you’re lucky you’ll get to see some of the rare animal species native to that part of the world – Bengal tiger, gharial, Asian rhinoceros, leopard, Mugger crocodile and rock pythons. You can also do some canoeing, meet some baby elephants in a sanctuary, walk in the jungle and visit some Tharu communities.

A life changing experience, everthing and more i expected.
It was totally amazing, meeting and spending time with the children was superb, they accepted us and had a fantastic approach to life, they made the whole trip worthwhile.
A sleeping bag is essential. Take toilet roll or buy some out there and always keep spare with you! Take lots of pictures, the memory's are out of this world.

Jimmy Wong - November 2010
Truly unforgettable experience, exceeded anything that I could have dreamed.
This is a difficult question to answer as the whole experience was one big highlight. However some of my standout memories were living and teaching at the Kawalung Monastery, Going on a jungle trek in Chitwan, a mountain flight through the Himalayas, the Ghorepani - Ghandruk trek and a Parahawk flight.
My tips are - 1. Try learning a few Nepalese phrases before your trip. Doing so goes a long way which the locals appreciate. 2. Understand and accept that there is something called 'Nepalese time.' When they say that they'll pick you up in the morning it could very well be the afternoon when they do so and vice versa. The operative words being 'accept it' and trying not to stipulate western time keeping as it will only cause you to stress. 3. Try to experience as much of this wonderful country as humanly possible. I tried and certainly was not disappointed.

Incredible people, unforgettable culture, new lifelong friends and crazy experiences
Living with a host family for such a substanial amount of time i felt i was able to properly bond with them and i became very attached to them. The way in which the people immediately treated you like a member of their family and the overall attitude of all the people involved in the placement was incredibly welcoming and accomodating.
