Description
Welcome to our little corner🙏🏼
Maya: I come from the Far East of Russia and spent 18 years in Switzerland before I became a traveller in 2024. That's when I met Manish🥰 while discovering India for the first time.
Calm, thoughtful, caring and creative in the way I see and reflect the world. 🫶🏼 I am an attentive listener, precise with intricate work, paying attention to details, speak Russian, English, German and a little bit of French. Back in Switzerland I used to be a member of a local community garden and a dance club. My heart beats faster when wildlife is near. 🦥 Nature is our mother and most important teacher. I am an animal lover and used to pick up the ones in need from the street to care for them until I found them a loving home. I am passionate about yoga, meditation, photography, teaching English, DIY, animals, gardening, organizing and beautifying the surroundings.📚📸🧘🏽♀️🐾🌿 My professional experience includes Fashion, Interior Design, Customer Care and Administration.
I'm eternally curious about our planet Earth.🌎🌍🌏
Manish: I am a meditator and a Yogi. I grew up in the northern part of Lovely India. It's essential for me to be healthy in terms of Body, Mind & Soul. Serving others gives me the utmost Joy and Fulfillment. I was a long-term volunteer at the Isha Yoga Center and most of my tasks were related to the front desk where I provided information about various programs of the centre & assisted visitors with the registration process. I also spent a lot of time working on the farms inside the Yoga Center. I enjoy being in nature and meditating. I am a sports enthusiast - it makes me feel alive. Professionally, I was involved in the family business of Ayurvedic products and medicines. I used to be part of a Start-up as well.
I Connected deeply with Maya on my spiritual journey, it is truly an adventure to travel together and discover this beautiful creation.
We are excited to explore other talents and activities while connecting and helping people on the way. ☀️
Wishing you a beautiful day 🙏🏼

Maya was a great help! She’s helping the kids improving their English- with lots of fun English lessons that have been prepared a day before teaching day. And we would discuss after the class over slices cut of dragon fruit and mango topped with yoghurt. Very… read more

The Camp has been my first workaway experience and I couldn't have wished for a better one.
Everything from a complete and total immersion into the wildlife environment with countless species to be found right there at the camp (including the elephants); through the touching connections I made with the local stuff members:… read more
