After completion of the one-week orientation program in Kathmandu, the participant will depart to the Manang. It takes two days to get there. When they arrive on the third day, they will stay at a guest house or with a host family. Our local coordinator will then give them a brief orientation in the culture, region and general lifestyle of the local people.

From the fourth day onwards, the participant will perform study and research or photography programs for two weeks. In this program our coordinator will take participants to different villages. He introduces them to the local people and briefs them about local festivals, lifestyles and culture. Participants can enjoy mingling with the local people in their daily activities.

In the fourth week, participants will be taken to mountains, river and lakes sites for the trekking portion of our program. During their stay in Annapurna region, participants can take part in unique festivals and celebrate with local people. They could also take part in monastery and school activities. Our coordinator or guide stays with the participant during the program.
