There were six Buffalo and I helped clean their pens and feed them. Another favorite moment was cultivating a few gardens in Pokhara and having to chase off monkeys.

Meeting the home stay family was life-changing

Scotia was very helpful. The local team were very organized and helped us with anything we needed. The ability to explore Nepal and all of its great excursions was great: zip lining, safari and helicopter tour of Everest. Meeting the home stay family and starting out as guests and ending up as part of the family was the biggest impact my volunteering trip had on me. It is a wonderful experience especially if you go somewhere out of your comfort zone!
