STARTING A FARMSTAY AND NGO IN HIMALAYAN REGION, INDIA

Namaste from India!

We are Lieke and Karan, nice to meet you. We love to introduce ourselves and our project to you.

ABOUT THE PROJECT

We aim to be a farmstay: a homestay with a small farm. A homestay is an informal accommodation for guests, that feels homely. It is for independent travellers of all ages, interns, students and anyone seeking a genuine and authentic experience. The farmstay will help us to be (financially) self-sustaining and run other awareness programs for locals and internationals.

BACKGROUND KARAN & LIEKE

Karan grew up as a mountain boy in India, walking to school every day in his uniform. Running and playing on terraces in his free time. Later he moved to the city and got familiar with rushy life. He taught himself music and English. He played as a solo-musician in restaurants, did hiking tours and worked in a homestay.

Lieke grew up as a Dutch girl living with comfort around her. She lived in different countries as a child, studied social geography in The Netherlands, worked in Tanzania for Justdiggit (an NGO that restores landscapes to mitigate climate change) and decided to go to India for a course in organic farming.

In April 2019, we met in a mountain homestay. The water pump was broken and Lieke helped Karan to fix it. Something struck between us. We decided to stick around a bit more together. During 2 years of living together, we built a thriving relationship despite differences. We are committed to venture further and connect with the world through something beautiful. In the same house where Karan grew up, in the lap of the Himalayas in a town called Pauri, we start Adara. We would love you to become a part of it, in any way possible. Feel welcome!

THANK YOU

Thank you for reading and being involved. It means a lot to us that you take time and interest to create together with us. We ask you to give from your heart an amount that feels good to you.

Much love and care,

Lieke & Karan
