For me personally, this experience didn't meet the expectations created by the program description and schedule, as the actual conditions on site were significantly different; while I am comfortable with simple accommodation, the hygiene standards were below an acceptable level, including insects and rodents in the sleeping area, which raised concerns about my health and led me to leave after the first night.
I would like to acknowledge the kindness and understanding of the local coordinator, who supported my decision and assisted me in reaching the bus station.

This place was not as described. I understand rural life, but basic cleanliness, safety, and transparency were missing.

There was no real meditation guidance, the work was construction, and the living conditions were cold and dirty (including pests, mouse). Food hygiene was poor.

The biggest red flag was being asked not to leave a review when we decided to leave. People deserve to know what to expect.

We sincerely apologize for the disappointment you experienced and deeply regret that you were unable to experience our full variety of activities due to you leaving in the very first night.

I'm humbly accept our shortcomings regarding the facilities, communication and other, and we are fully committed to improving :)

We are appreciate your honest review.

I had a great time here! The volunteer tasks (3-4 hours/day) change daily and you have a lot of freedom. I harvested rice, weeded gardens, planted, helped with cooking, and even helped with catering for an event at the local Buddhist temple! You get to know a lot of local people, who are all friendly and welcoming. Meditation is a big part of the experience here; you practice daily and learn the basics from a local monk (if you want to)! Isara was kind and despite being busy, really tries to make your experience good. Only downside (for me): 7 dogs and 7 cats who want to eat whatever you eat

Very nice experience overall. Net and Isara are very kind and caring, they arranged different activities for every day so it was interesting to see always something new. In addition practising meditation in the temple with the monks was a unique thing.
On the top of that, it was special to live for some days in such a close community; everyone in the village was welcoming and many people offered me fruits and sweets.

Thank you for this unforgettable experience!
I learned a new meditation technique, and i feel like i've already benefitted from it after only staying a week here! I learned to garden, harvest rice and make thai dishes.
Definitely recommend!!!
