    Volunteering Abroad in Nepal for Your Holidays PDF Print E-mail
    Things to do
    Written by Nathaniel Manu   
    Working as a volunteer abroad in Nepal during your vacation or gap year between school and university will be an experience that you will never forget. However, although Nepal may be the destination of your dreams, your volunteer work will not be easy - but it will be very rewarding.When you make the decision to volunteer abroad in Nepal you will be assigned to one of three possible locations, irrespective of the type of voluntary work you do. These are:a) The well-known Kathmandu, where you will be working only around 40 minutes from the principal tourist center of the country. This is the capital city of Nepal, and as a result offers all you need in the way of shopping, restaurants and internet cafes, and you will be able to spend your free time here if you wish.
