Proud to have led this fine group of 8 dedicated volunteers to Udaipur, India to work with restorationworksinternational on the restoration of a centuries old Haveli, repurposing it into a community and heritage center that supports migrant woman laborers and will provide a place to make and sell traditional Rajasthani arts and crafts made and sourced locally. Here we are on day one, along with our construction supervisor, taking a much needed break on the front stoop of the Bichli Haveli, Udaipur, India. #preservation #historicpreservation #restoration #historicpreservation #india #udaipur #restorationworksinternational #communitydevelopment #bichlihaveliproject #internationaldevelopment #globalheritage #oneworld #rwivolunteerstories #volunteer #volunteervacations #ngo #nonprofit #philanthropy #dogood #socialgood #giveback #payitforward #karma

If there is one thing the Olympics have taught us it is that Sport is the universal language that can unite mankind... Be it Volleyball, Frisbee, Soccer, American football, rugby, dodgeball or whatever new game a bunch of young monks invent! #rwivolunteerstories #RestorationWorksInternational #chhairo #trekkingnepal #nepal

Today it rained and snowed in our corner of the Nepali Himalayas, so we stayed inside, painted pictures, uncovered ancient sculptures with Lama Shashi and Chakra.

Bichli Haveli Project
#bichlihaveliproject
Restoration projects suck up resources and energy faster than one can replenish! Deep gratitude to RWI volunteers whose visits infused the haveli and the crew with their spirit and positivity✨ whose support, in so many forms, has carried the project so far and kept the dream alive ✨
**Do reach out if you’d like to #volunteer with the project after the pandemic subsides**

Managing and moving large stones whole so that they can be repurposed is a big job around here..

Beauty is never just skin-deep! The Bichli Haveli too offers more than surface decoration- encountered here are layered planes and mathematical rhythms in space- 3 in 3 in 3 compositions. There is no other way in the haveli- only creative #slowliving that is as much a discovery of space as it is about yourself.

I’d like to share some sad news, especially for my friends who have been with me on one of the many trips I’ve led to the Himalayan mountains of Nepal, with restorationworksinternational , to work on the restoration of the century’s old Tibetan Buddhist monastery of Chairro gompa.
The beautiful neighboring village of Tukche was recently devastated by unprecedented monsoon rains. This picture shows Lama Sashi and myself in front of Sashi’s ancestral home in Tukche, several years ago.
If you would like to learn more and contribute to the rebuilding efforts see the GoFundMe link in my bio.
Namaste friends! #chhairogompa #tukche #nepal #himalayas #gofundme #tibetanbuddhist #mustangnepal #mustangregion

@indiatvnews got word of the community development work, heritage restoration and neighborhood beautification project RWI started to undertake during our October group’s trip to Udaipur, India. Trip leader @peter_wolfhunter speaks to @indiatvnews about the mission of @restorationworksinternational and our non profit efforts to promote sustainable global community development, heritage preservation, and provide a platform to help migrant woman laborers find stability in the work place by teaming with the Udaipur nonprofit @jandaksha . Thank you India TV for allowing us to promote these worthy pursuits! 🙏 #indiatv #restoration #preservation #globalheritage #oneworld #crosscultural #restorationworksinternational #15minutesoffame #media #ngo #nonprofit #nonprofitorganization #giveback
