Authentic Thai experience in Pangteom Village, Sameong City

Regno Unito

Was lovely to meet all the locals and other volunteers, Dangs yummy food always sustained me after a day of work and i felt really grounded when doing the morning walking meditation. It was it was really eye opening to be able to learn about so many peoples lives and culture. ( if you see a review saying it gets a bit chilly at night during the colder months, however cold you think it is…double it)

My Time with the farm, his family and the other volunteers is a memory that I will forever bring in my heart! Every day we had different tasks and the place is just magical. We practiced meditation, we ate vegetarian food (delicious thank you Dang ❤️) and we had a lot of free time to chill and build relationships. the farm helps the minorities with scholarships and the community around the farm and this makes the experience unique! Thank you very very much!

La granja y su esposa Dang son unas personas maravillosas. Les agradezco de corazón. Todo el tiempo me trataron con respeto y me sentí en casa. Me llenaban de comida todo el tiempo y se aseguraban que estuviera bien. El trabajo también era muy ameno y durante muy pocas horas 2~3 Tuve que dejar la granja antes porque no estaba preparada para este estilo de vida. Mi error por no revisar los reviews. Es una experiencia para los valientes y debes estar preparado para lidiar con bichos, cucarachas, lagartijas, serpientes, etc. También se siente un poco solitario si eres el único voluntario.

Beautiful setting in nature, dang's cooking is delicious and the village and farm was quaint. I was not expecting so much free time and as there were not many volunteers at the time, i wish i had planned more entertainment for myself. Or perhaps come on a scooter so i was more mobile. I think coming with a friend or partner at low season would be nice, but solo was a little too chill for myself. The farm work was enjoyable and i can see how when there are many volunteers it would be fun. Thank you the farm and dang for my stay

I stayed at the farm for 1 week and can recommend going there to chill out after a while of traveling and get into a routine. What I enjoyed: - Being surrounded by nature - Food - Bonfire - chatting with the other volunteers - walking around in the area, especially to the lake where you can swim - just being lazy and having time for myself Things to improve in my point of view: - communication (telling people that the farm is not where google maps says it is, inform to bring your own toilet paper and soap as they don't provide that, explain more about meditation and the culture there..

I stayed at Watchura farm for 7 days. I had a good experience it was nice being in nature for a while. I learned how to cement while i was there which was interesting to know about, and I'm glad that I could meet some local people through some activities I was invited to through helping cement around an outhouse :) I recommend staying here if you want some time in nature and to connect more to yourself. Some things to know if you go, the old farm in 40 minutes away the new farm which you'll go to is 3 hours away. Bring some bug spray if you don't like mosquitoes and bring some toilet paper:)

The experience wasn't at all what they say it is. When we first arrived there was no introduction to anything or where things were…Then at the time we were there, there were 12 other volunteers and no work for that many people. Then there were some moments where it felt as if they were lying about what was going on, for example: we went to help in the fields and one of the workers told us all of the cabbages were to sell to 7/11 and all the markets but then when his wife came she said they were for the students and the day before that it was for the king… Also no real community to interact.

The farm was a pleasant experience. I was meant to stay a week however left a few days earlier as I was struggling to get any sleep on the hard wooden bungalow floor, and with the work being quite tiring at times I wasn't feeling very well by the end of my stay. The work was what was expected and the hours were as agreed upon. The food provided was exceptional, very delicious and plenty of it. I would have liked to learn more from the hosts, as we didn't speak too much
