Nestled in the lap of the Himalaya Mountains between India and China, Nepal is indeed a true natural wonder. Although a small country, Nepal offers a wide range of diversity (both geographically and ethnically). Its natural wonders are incredible and there are abundant examples of unique flora and fauna. The country is populated by vivid ethnic groups and spotted with colorful festivals. IFRE’s summer program offers a rare chance to submerge into the Nepal’s charismatic culture, dedicate valuable time and effort to a local orphanage project and experience all the majestic natural beauty this Himalayan kingdom has to offer! IFRE invites volunteers to have a summer adventure in Nepal and balance humanitarian and travel experiences as they embark on this meaningful journey of a lifetime.
