The whole spiritual hike was all in all a unique experience. Jigmey treated us as old friends, so we felt very comfortable the whole time. We were able to move about freely at his guesthouse, which let us feel very much at home. While staying with Jigmey, he was sharing many experiences and stories with us. He explained us everything about the Nepalese and Hyolmo culture. Additionally, Jigmey introduced us to all his friends and relatives, who welcomed us in their houses and treated us also as old friends or even as family. We can highly recommend this local experience and would like to thank Jigmey for all experiences we have made.

Exceptional host and wonderful experience. Host is very knowledgeable and has taken us to the local community and we had an immersive experience. Would definitely recommend and would come back again.

Fantastic experience!!

Wonderful people!

Staying at Jigmey's place was a fantastic first introduction to Nepal. The space itself is very nice and welcoming; there's lots of nice little touches as well that make it feel cozy and warm. And it's very close to Boudanath, which in my opinion-- despite the dusty roads-- is a better area to stay in than the tourist trap that is Thamel. There's very affordable laundry services on site as well.

More important than that, Jigmey is an excellent host and I immediately felt like I had a newfound friend to give me a local's guide to Kathmandu on the first couple days I had free.
