“Responsive hosts, the water pressure was a little low the first day but they filled the water tank and the shower was nice after a day in the city. It was an excellent location with a 15 minute walk to Thamel, and 2 minute walk to nearby...”

Hi I am Lilen. I am a 65 year old retired housewife and mother of 2 fully grown kids. In Nepal we have a saying "Atithi Devo Bava" meaning "Guests are like gods". When you visit Nepal you will realize that this sentiment is ingrained in our culture. So I, like many other Nepalis, passionately love hosting guests and making sure you are well taken care of while you are in our country. At the same time, this is also my attempt towards gaining some financial independence which is a challenge for a woman of my age.
Hope you like my place! :)
