I’m Dr. V. Wilsanand, your host. Years ago, I co-authored a scientific paper on a tiny aquatic worm called Manayunkia. What fascinated me was how this little creature builds a protective tube for itself- a simple but strong home in harmony with its environment.
When I constructed this homestay for families and travelers, I wanted it to reflect the same spirit: a safe, welcoming place close to nature. That’s why it’s called Manayunkia Homestay-a home where you can rest, connect, and feel at peace with your surroundings.
Welcome to Manayunkia Homestay!
