Come for the mountains, stay for work that actually means something.There's a particular kind of tired that comes from a desk job you don't care about, and a completely different kind that comes from a day shooting content in golden hour light, closing a booking you worked hard for, or hosting a video you're genuinely proud of. We're looking for people who want the second kind.We run a Cottage, a growing property in Mukteshwar, and we're also working on a travel-based startup where we create and operate travel experiences across the Himalayas. We're looking for people who can bring their skills, ideas, and creativity to help us take this forward.
We’re building a small team of volunteers to help us get the right guests through our doors, tell our story well online, and contribute to our growing travel business.
This isn't a "come clean rooms and water plants" post. We're looking for people with real, usable skills who want to contribute, take responsibility, learn something new, and see their work making a difference.

This is a skills-for-stay exchange, not a paid job. But if you want to travel, learn, create, and work on something meaningful, we think it's a pretty good trade.
Who we’re looking for:Someone comfortable in a simple, rural setting, interested in travel and hospitality, and able to commit at least a few weeks so you have enough time to settle in and do good work.
We’re looking for people who don't just want to "volunteer," but want to bring their skills, take ownership, and be part of what we’re building.
