Beautiful World is a non-profit, non-governmental organisation that offers enthusiastic individuals the unique opportunity to teach English to Buddhist monks in the starkly beautiful region of Ladakh.  Situated in northernmost India, Ladakh is one of the few remaining strongholds of Tibetan Buddhism in the world, possessing a culture that has remained intact for thousands of years.

Living and working amongst the monks of Ladakh will provide you with a life-changing, unforgettable experience with the chance of gaining first hand knowledge of Tibetan Buddhism.  As a volunteer, you will give and gain far more than you could as a simple tourist, develop invaluable skills, gain a whole new perspective on the world and much, much more.

Immerse yourself in a new culture, experience the rewards of teaching, challenge yourself.
