The work on the farm was easy and fun. Tanka let you work at your own pace. The experience was a true reflection of what is posted on the website. The meals were heathy and filling. I made friends with travellers from other parts of the world :)

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!

We were welcomed properly by Tanka, where he gave us the information for our stay. It wasn't very clear which tasks needed to be done, there wasn't much work. Apparently we only got 2 meals instead of 3, which does not accord to the advertisement. The longer we stayed, the more we got to know what was expected from us and got to know each other. He and his family did their best to welcome, we even got to meet the kids. They live all in another house, near the farm. We got a lot of free time, so you can expect to go and wander around in the neighbourhood!

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.
