We are located in the center of Kathmandu, with most of the UNESCO World Heritage sites and the tourist center of Thamel within walking distance. My house is still off the main road, with relatives and extended families living around. That makes it a safe, less noisy, and welcoming place with more chances of cultural immersion and knowing the Nepalese family life. We are a family of four: daughter, son, father-in-law, and husband, who has been a trekker and mountaineer for over two decades and now runs a small tour company of his own. I run a preschool in the neighborhood with my other three women partners. So we definitely have lots of social, cultural, and mountain stories to share and activities to involve you. The house is an 18-year-old concrete building with a red brick front. Our neighborhood and the house stood strong during the April 2015 earthquake. Even though I have a small yard, there are plenty of trees and flowers. We have adopted an eco-friendly lifestyle. So we use less plastic and compost biodegradable waste. I use the manure to grow vegetables on the rooftop. We have got solar heated water and backup lights. We filter rainwater and harvest it. We just have 3 rooms allocated for homestay guests. But we are expanding to the neighborhood as a community homestay. I believe in enforcing an eco-friendly lifestyle through tourism. All rooms have a kitchenette and attached bathroom. Homestay guests can join us in our kitchen and learn to make Nepalese cuisine.

Good to knowMy husband is well learned, government licensed tour guide. You can plan 2 days tour of Kathmandu along with homestay program. There are also beautiful hikes and short trek (2 - 3 days) you can go on.

- My brother 'Prabin' knows lots of the birds around to take you on a bird watching trip around Kathmandu. He is associated with 'Bird conservation Nepal'. There are plenty of green hills and few wetlands to plan bird watching trip.
- Our homestay is perfect for practicing 'Nepali language'. We are just walking distance away from most of the Nepali language institute (Thamel). There are kids and relatives living around with whom you can easily mix up and communicate.
- Guests can also participate and learn Nepalese cooking like MoMo (dumplings), Dal Bhat (Nepali set) and other local dishes.
- You can also involve yourself in the preschool I manage with my couple of ladies partners. We need volunteers to tell stories, art and crafts and paintings.
- I was also thinking about running a evening class for poor kids in the community where they can come and get help for their homework. Being in the center of city, there are not enough playground. Also there parents not being educated (mostly labors renting one room), they need more help with their homework and other academic activities.
