Myself and my best friend Alex had a brilliant time staying with Ramesh. The location was one of the more remote places we had ever visited, which only added to the unique experiences we had there. Our working hours were never too intense and Ramesh was always working with us or just around the corner to provide guidance if needed! We both feel we have made a lifelong friend in Ramesh, and hope to return one day!

Staying in this local village has been an incredible experience, honestly! Fist of all, I felt like at home from day 1, thanks to the host, plus, everyone welcomed me with open arms, which it made me feel relax and it helped me enjoying this experience. Secondly, I was able to get immersed within the local culture, which it was one of my main reasons of this trip. So, thank you for showing me how your daily routine looks like and for teaching me about your culture. And last but not least, I learnt about slow life surrounded by nature, I highly recommend you to join this experience!!

This was my second time at the farm and it was just as amazing as the last time. The family is amazing and welcoming and you get to emerge in local village life far from busy cities and in gorgeous nature. I would recommend everyone to visit this place!
