Join our warm Nepalese family in a peaceful rural village for a unique cultural and language exchange. Help us practice English while sharing your own culture and experiences. In return, you’ll enjoy authentic Nepalese traditions, local food, festivals, and daily village life.

Samar and his entire family welcomed me with open hands from the very beginning. The house is located an hour from Kathmandu, in a village nestled in the mountains. There's a market very close to the house that you can visit by walk, also an atm since almost everything is paid by cash. You can walk and explore, and when Samar has the day off you can go on a guided mountain trek to see the breathtaking landscape. Samar and his wife speak English but the rest of the family doesn't. Samar will help you with anything you need. He is an excellent guide, person and host. Highly recommended.

The host need to be work six days a week, meanwhile his wife and his father need to work the same. if you stay inside the house, you can play with host's mother and his two years little son, both don't speak English. they don't have any work you need do. just chill down. so the last half period of my stay time, I start to come outside to hiking rather stay inside the house. the families are so welcoming, after they cooked, they will come to your room and tell you it's eating time, which really makes me fell guilty. But they don't eat meat at all, which I think it's not enough protein.
