Inception & Vision

Nepal is a country of breath-taking natural beauty and a deeply spiritual social environment. But its turbulent history and political and socio-economic instability has left a significant portion of the population below the poverty line. The sad reality has touched the hearts of many tourists and led them to contribute personally to the improvement of the situation.
