on small-scale agriculture. The Himalayan kingdom of Nepal is renowned for its
breathtaking scenery, its rich cultural heritage and its friendly people and is
dotted with both Hindu and Buddhist temples and sites of pilgrimage. Volunteering
in Nepal means lot from sharing extensive knowledge and helping the peoples of
this country taking back the memories of beauties. Volunteers work in a range
of village-based projects with local people. Participants experience the traditional
way of life, the culture and the beauty of Nepal, while engaging in an exchange
of ideas and work practices in the poorest communities. You
