Voluntary Work in Nepal

"Jostling crowds, rickety bullock carts and noisy auto-rickshaws all make a contribution to the character and constant energy of Kathmandu's traditional narrow streets. And beyond the city are the Himalayas."

To live in Nepal

Nepal is a land of snow-capped mountains, amazing temples and the crazy city of Kathmandu. The home of Mount Everest, it is a country that draws all kinds of people to it. They don't go home disappointed.

Nepal has historically been a shrewd trader between India to the South and China to the North. It is also on a tough road from royal autocracy to a kind of democracy.

Projects Abroad is based in the bustling city of Kathmandu full of jostling crowds, rickety bullock carts and noisy auto-rickshaws. Kathmandu attracts pilgrims as well as tourists. There is always something going on whether it be a religious festival or a political rally. As one of the world's poorest countries, there is a real need in Nepal for volunteers to help out at the schools, hospitals and orphanages.

Kathmandu has something for everyone. You can try a pizza Nepali-style or feast on the traditional Dal Bhat. You may want to visit some of the temples in Durbar Square or could join the Hash House Harriers jogging around Nepal.

Nepal is the perfect location for anyone who loves the outdoors. You can go trekking or climbing in the foothills of Everest or go white water rafting in the foaming glacial rivers. Why not take some time out to have a buffalo steak at the Everest Steak House?
