That sounds absolutely amazing! At that price I could stay longer! Are there many English speaking people there I could socialise with? Or is it just tourists passing through?

There are plenty of English speakers or locals who want to improve their English to work in tourism. There are lots of long term visitors and European or Americans running business over there like trekking, rafting, retreats etc. You're only a few hours away from 8000m peaks and the whitewater and culture is fantastic.
