A home stay trek allows travelers to stay with a Nepalese family during the journey in some trekking regions, where there are no lodges or tea houses for accommodation. The home stay participant lives with the family: sleeping in a Nepalese home, taking meals with the family and maybe even touring the city or celebrating a holiday or birthday with them. The program provides a unique opportunity to learn about Nepalese culture, make new friends and extended family and provide direct assistance to the Nepalese people, many of whom are saving for their children’s future education.
