Highlights:
The placements are available in Pokhara Valley, Pokhara and Chitwan, all of which are near to the main city. The exact location of your placement is finalized during the training where you will visit several potential project sites. Project placement also takes into consideration: * Your skills and preferences * The needs and requirements of the orphanages and schools * Seasonal weather patterns All placements are very flexible giving you the opportunity to take some time off and explore Nepal and some of the world famous attractions.
