Overview
Experience
The soul of India does live in its villages and the rural countryside. What could be more exploratory and introspective than to live there, interact and eat with the locals, and perform the daily chores of a typical villager. The experience will not only help us understand the rural village life but also help the villagers understand us, that is, the people from the cities.
With the never-ending migration to the cities from villages, such kind of experience is aimed to help create sustainable livelihoods locally to help people stay back and work on improving the economy of the village and region, while experiencing the beauty of the place and the people.
