Worked with Tanka on his farm for a couple of weeks. It was an amazing way to get an insight into local farming and working with the land during the monsoon! Many thanks Tanka!

I had such a fun time volunteering at GarmiKhola the farm for the past two months. A wonderful opportunity to learn about nepal by staying with a wonderful family. I learned so much about caring for animals, trained the cow to graze, learned how to milk and process dairy, and how to plant corn and harvest potatoes. If you are interested about learning rice cultivation be there 4 rainy season! I would highly recommend staying here if you want a cultural exchange and a chance to live on a farm in nepal<3

I had an amazing two months (march-april) staying on the farm! I learned how to milk a cow, herd goats, plant corn, and lots of other fun farm tasks. There is plenty of free time between tasks during a day to relax, go walk, or swim (good river canyon ~15min walk south of the farm). I also loved taking the dog for walks up the hill to get a good view of the Himalayas. Tanka's wife Asmita cooks very good dal bhat and curry with veg from the garden. Thank you again for everything!

Tanka made sure my friend and I felt welcomed upon arriving. He's very nice, good friend. Unfortunately we had to leave a bit early due to my friends visa expiring. During our stay, the tasks were taking the dog for a walk & letting the chickens run free. The dog isn't well taken care of and chasing him down after he got off the leash was really stressful and scary, and not what I signed up for. Since it's low season, there wasn't any family, any farm, or animals, just some chickens in a small cage, along with the dog, and not many tasks to do.

Host was extremely welcoming. Work day was not too strenuous so allowed for time to sit by the river and explore the local area. Work included walking the dog, some planting, cutting grass, shoveling animal poo and feeding goats and cows. Would recommend if you were looking for a quiet get away from Pokhara and wanted to stay with a friendly local Nepalese family.

I had a lovely few days with Tanka and his family. Their hosting was warm and welcoming, and the work, though not difficult, was both educational and fun. There are lots of places to explore around the village. It was truly a great experience!

I stayed 10 days at this farm & felt very welcomed by the whole family. We played lots of games, learned some ukulele and cooked together. The work was fun. I experienced Tanka as a clear, patient instructor. I'm very thankful about everything i learned about the farmlife. Besides that I was able to learn some cooking and new games! My tasks were walking the dog ( which was the biggest challenge to be honest), feeding the animals, help with sudying, cutting grass and special tasks depending on demand and weather. I enjoyed the river, the view and all the butterflies and frogs:) thank you!

My time in the farm was absolutely amazing. The farm itself is located in a quiet mountain part of Pokhara with stunning view and crazy nature and a creak you can go and bath in the farm. I got to do all kinds of work like taking care of the cow and goats and just general things in the farm. And learned so much from my time there. Tanka the host was perfect and we worked together everyday and immediately became very good friends, with him and his beautiful family treating me like one of them I just felt like home and stayed more than planned with no days off at all.
