What Is Homestay and why should you stay in homestay.
Homestays usually have few rooms. The family who resides there runs it, and acts as host.
This guarantees that guests receive plenty of individual attention. You can spend as little or as much time with the host family as you like.
"Athithi Devo Bhava", which means "The Guest is God". The hospitality culture is unique in the Queen of Hills. A homestay is a home away from home. Guests are accommodated with the family in separate rooms taking utmost care about their privacy.
Home stays are safe alternative accommodation. If you're a solo female traveller, visiting different parts of Queen of Hills for the first time or are simply concerned about staying safe, you'll have a family who looks after you at a homestay. They'll provide you with advice and may even give you pick up or drop facilities.
The main benefit of staying in a homestay is to have an authentic cultural experience from the indigenous people of the area. Staying with a family is the easiest way of experiencing the local culture, local cuisine, traditions and history. Many guests and hosts find that they bond with each other so much that they keep in touch long after the vacation is over. – So Homestays are about forming relationships.
WHAT ARE WE ABOUT AND WHY ARE WE HERE?
Our mission is to promote sustainable tourism in and around the Queen of the Hill regions. Not only do we provide the alternative livelihood to the host families but we also work for the upliftment of the local people who earn their livelihood from the Tourism industry.
In addition to engaging local resources, we train our staffs in various aspects of hospitality like maintaining proper food hygiene, hygiene in general and adopting eco-practices like recycling. The local youths of the area are also trained in tourism activities to generate employment opportunities in the region to stop the migration of youths to larger cities for employment. We work actively with other Homestays and local enterprineurs to create outlets for local products and handicrafts to boost the local economy. We are social entrepreneurs and are working for a sustainable India.
