Project: Conservation and Orphanage

My host family was wonderful and truly became my own family during my stay here. The food was great and I quickly got used to the Nepalese traditional meals. I worked in the nursery as well as the orphanage and I think both projects were run well. The orphanage has amazing staff and the children are beautiful, happy and the best students I have met.
I would recommend RCDP for other volunteers looking for a rewarding volunteering experience. My advice would be to make sure you can stay long enough- I have only been here two weeks and if I could do things over again I would stay for two months or longer. There is so much to learn, see and do in Nepal.
