I am an English teacher at the local school in Orgochor village. I have traveled to America twice through American Councils teacher exchange programs. Since traveling abroad, I've grown interest in working with tourists from around the world. I enjoy communicating with native English speakers and sharing my Kyrgyz culture.
From my home, you can see the beautiful snow-capped Kyrgyz mountains and get an inside view to traditional Kyrgyz village life. Hospitality is an important part of Kyrgyz culture . We hope you will come see our beautiful village, lake,and mountains!

You then pay your host on arrival or as stated by your host on their profile and agreed by you on booking. Please be cautious if a host requests advance payment if its not included on their profile.
