In 1997 i have an extensive travel in east Asia, live and work in Taiwan for almost 5 years where i did voluntary works with a non-governmental organization House of compassion assisting Abuse and battled woman. There i meet my Nepali husband who brought me to Nepal. In June 2007 my love and passion to help others; and persuasive abilities in Volunteering, with the help of close friends and relatives lead me to Launch Quest Volunteer Travels & Tours (P) LTD. A charitable company committed towards promoting and facilitating voluntourism in Nepal. It aims to help women and children in underdeveloped communities to develop knowledge and skills that they can use to improve their lives and the lives of other in their communities, i am now using the skills and development knowledge to contribute and improve my company, how we can work more and serve more. I believes in the amazing power of volunteerism, helping other, help others, i strongly persuades everyone to partake and get involved in any type of volunteering activities. That will be great!
