With a spirit of serving guests by homely environment, Babu Raja Maharjan in Langol, Kirtipur is welcoming guests in his home from various places around the world. Living with his family (wife Belku, daughter Ruja and son Aayush) in the ground floor, guests are offered cozy rooms in the first floor. Many years of experiences being a trekking guide is enabling him to create, plan or link outstanding holiday packages for his guests. Feedback of Contentment and Thankfulness in the “Guest book” of his living room surely advertise the hospitality of Nepalese that we are famous for.

Meeting Gunilla, helpful and supportive guest from Sweden was not merely a coincidence for him; they introduced themselves at Helambu trekking. Her stay in his home has made him realize of his innate quality of serving guests with homely care. He did enjoy staying in Sweden for about 6 weeks in 2007 that gave him opportunity to carefully learn the western way of daily-living.

That inspired him how important it is to living at home than at hotel or motel to experience different ways of living. Experiential learning and traveling around places have benefited him with knowledge of modern facilities and services along with cultural style of caring.

His services are his best assets that ranked his homestay 1 out of 237 Kathmandu valley B&B and Inns as mentioned in www.tripadvisor.com. Recommendations from guests staying with him are the best mean of the advertisement.
