The adv. in world packers is extremely misleading. You have to pay $70 per week for accommodation( with extremely yellow water and cockroaches) & food( which is 2 times daal chawal every day nothing else; thats what the kids get to eat) so its not free. It says free laundary, hiking tours but No. So its like a u pay money n stay; more of a donation than volunteer. Only thing i liked are the children but i never figured out what to do with them sitting in there drawing toom seeing each other's faces. I think all this should be mentioned before coz i left in 3 days as i needed clean water :(

We never had a problem with water. The day Niyati arrived it was raining so the water turned out bit yellow. About the food, Daal, and Rice are the local food Nepalese eat as a breakfast and dinner.

We provide a washing machine at the children's home for free to do the laundry but Niyati didn't ask for it. And about the hiking, we never asked for money and she wanted to do it by herself.

On Worldpackers we have all good reviews. None of our volunteers had any problem and we are always there to fix if there is any. Niyati is more of a traveler than a volunteer so she might have had high expectations.

If you are planning to volunteer with us but wondering if you should or not. Please take a time and read other volunteers review and get in contact with them.

Thank you!

The organization was an incredible experience for me. You're completely welcomed into the family immediately. Everyone calls you sister and makes you feel so appreciated. The amount of hugs you receive in a day could just fuel your heart for months. The kids are so willing to learn and connect and play. They are so loving and warm. Sometimes they'll resist homework, or they can be difficult. But as with any child, the more you love and attempt to connect with them, the more they will open up and allow you to help them get what they need. I would suggest to make sure you're not the only volunteer.

Amazing place! Felt like home with adorable children and great "staff" who felt more like family than anything else. We played games, danced, helped with homework, cooking and much more. A very open and free environment, and a good way to meet other volunteers and get to know some locals. As Sujan (our host) said "we focus on the happy aspect of taking care of the children". And you can really feel that in the atmosphere of the place. That is one of the reasons why we ended up staying longer than planned, -we fell in love with the place and the people ^^

The organization... what can I say?! I had a big experience living with this family. All of them so kind and friendly! The childrens are amazing. The way they interacte with you, share things and ask for help, with a lot of curiosity in everything, is a great way to see the life in different ways and also to know more about the nepali culture. Thank you for being part of the family and thanks for all smiles, hugs and memories I will keep it in my mind forever for sure!!

I can't recommend the organization enough. The home is a place filled with love, peace, compassion and bright futures! The kids are adorable, fun and wiser than you expect. Sujan, your main host, is a young Nepali social entrepreneur that acts both as a manager of the home (and all other projects they have/support) and a hard working and caring big brother to whom the kids look up to. The rest of the family is in the home as well and are all extremely welcoming and sweet. Besides that, you will get to explore the organization: a beautiful, colorful, safe, peaceful and calming land.

I had an amazing time volunteering here. The kids and family are wonderful and accept you into their family with open arms. I spent my time hanging with the kids, giving them drawing lessons and teaching them about pollution and planets. When I wasn't volunteering I was getting local insight into living in the organization, as well as tours of temples and the culture thanks to Sujan the coordinator. I've recommended doing this to my family and friends and I think it's really worth the authentic Nepali experience.

I stayed for 3 weeks and a half at the guest house. I learned a lot with the kids and family, also shared some ideas and point of view. The kids are just incredible, I had a hardtime to leave the house, because it was everyday receiving from them much love, hungs and the little voices calling me "Sistar". Every single kid has a particular world inside so, I advise you to go and find it by yourself. Also go and see that maybe that tiny Idea you have can turn out as a big move to their growth and evolution.
