CURRENT MISSION

Helping immigrants family from Nepal and Tibet by providing their children free education in my own running school.

ABOUT ME

I am Raj kumar Kashyap, 40 yrs, had been living in Shimla since my birth as my father was an employee in P.W.D. department in Shimla, H.P (After his death I am appointed there). I am married person and we have two little angles studying in nearer private school “Auckland”. I and my family members are very impressed with this couch surfing concept as it values the life by sharing and learning. We live in Shimla city which was once the capital of India for summer in British Raaj. It is very beautiful city on the footsteps of Himalayas on its Shivalik range. This city is very much English style with Tudor and Victorian kind of architecture. It is hard to explain its richness in Himalayas and this is why it is still a capital of Himachal Pradesh.

Well, I am also a social worker and run a free school for immigrants children from Nepal and Tibet. Our school is a project under a Yuvak Mandal (Youth Strength) org. registered with Himachal Pradesh Govt., North India, India.
Education is important for everyone. Therefore, we offer our children free education to enable them to have a better today and future.
It is one of the most important means of empowering our children with the knowledge, skills and self-confidence necessary to participate fully in the development process of our world. Himachal Pradesh is a beautiful surf state in North India with a great vibe. Just a couple of minutes up to the mountain behind the Brave Punjabi community named Himachal Pradesh is situated. Himachal Pradesh is a rich agriculturist state with high production of hydro electricity projects in north India, but the area where I run my school (Jubbal) very low income district with no running water or electricity in most houses. Some of the kids do not go to school because of their private situations.

Well friends we know living life together has a different feeling and enjoy so we are ready to welcome you and all friends as a couch surfer in our Pahari community. Please feel free to contact me for anything (information) in couch surfing or face book. Love and Light.

PHILOSOPHY

Om Namah Shivaya, All philosophy which belongs to lord Shiva.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Once I was traveling with my friend to a mountain village called Barthata in Shimla distt. where we felt a natural power (a spirit). It was really an amazing thing we felt.

Teach, Learn, Share

I can teach my local language, cooking and farming in mountain villages.

I am a good learner so anything you think is good for me to learn i am there to learn, but my preference is different languages.

I can share my culture, my work, my traditions and my world.
