My volunteering journey in the eco village was truly remarkable. I documented the free school, the organic farm, and the gaushala, all of which support the local community. The warm hospitality, delicious food, and the genuine sense of community made this experience unforgettable. the eco village is a hidden treasure in the Himalayas where nature and community thrive together. Highly recommended for a transformative volunteering adventure.
