About Spiraling Path

Spiraling Path exists to help people reconnect with nature — both the wild world around them and the nature within. We believe human health and wellbeing are inseparable from the health of our ecosystems and the wildlife that share them.

Our work centres on protecting and expanding wildlife habitat while offering experiences that heal, teach practical skills, and leave travellers with a genuine sense of contribution. This is not a place you pass through. It is a place to arrive, to plant something that will outlast your visit, and to leave a little of yourself behind while carrying a new perspective home.

How we began

Sujesh/Bénäm was born in Kathmandu. After meeting Amy in Western Australia, the two of us returned to Nepal and founded NEO Farm Retreat — a permaculture farm perched above the Kathmandu Valley. That land became the first living classroom for regenerative agriculture, natural building, and slow, attentive living.

As we travelled further into the hills and villages, we met farmers, builders, and community leaders quietly restoring their corners of the world. From those encounters the path widened. What began as a personal project has grown into something shared — shaped by the communities we work alongside and by every traveller who chooses to contribute rather than simply consume.

Today NEO Farm is returning to its original role as our family home and base. Nearby, Rituals & Retreats provides simple accommodation for volunteers and guests who come to learn and work with us.

Where the path is leading

Our longer work is to help re-energise village life across Nepal — documenting traditional skills and ways of living that grew from an inseparable relationship with the land, and supporting projects that protect habitat while keeping that wisdom alive. We are building experiences that let people learn by doing: restoring land, expanding habitat, practising traditional crafts, and sitting with the quieter rhythms of place.

Whether you come to plant trees that will become future forest, to study regenerative farming, to train in sound healing, or simply to walk the land and offer your hands for a season, you become part of an evolving story. The contribution is real. The connection is lasting.

We care deeply for the health of nature — environment, wildlife, and the human spirit that belongs to both. If that care resonates with you, you are already on the path.
