Company information

Hi, My name is Farida and this is my home which I have converted to a Home Stay. I love to travel and meet people from different parts of the world so this is another way for me to meet people and share our stories. I am also very passionate about my place of birth, Shillong and would like to help people learn and see all the beauties it has to offer. I always try to help my guests with their itineraries and connect them to the best driver and local guides for a memorable experience. Apart from sightseeing, you can also learn from me about our culture, food and our art n crafts. I stay at the property and am usually there in case you need any help.
