Clothing:
The days in Chitwan
are generally warm for most of the year and require only light
clothing. However, from November to February the early mornings and
evenings can be very chilly, requiring a warm sweater or jacket.
Light weight, loose-fitting trousers and long-sleeved shirts are
recommended to protection from cuts and scratches while moving
through the tall grass and forests. Canvas shoes or lightweight
boots are ideal for walking or elephant riding as they give
protection from thorny vines, insects and prickles. Bright colors
are very conspicuous in the jungle and we advise you wear
neutral-colored clothing. A sunhat or light neck scarf and suncream
are necessary for preventing sunburn and perhaps insect repellent
for use out of doors in the evening.
We request you to apply
before 35 days prior to the starting date of the program. No advance
payment is require, only your enthusiasm and valid passport copy and
3 passports size photo is good enough to precede further
documentation.
