I really enjoyed my time volunteering. Everyone was so kind and welcoming, which made me feel comfortable right from the start. The food that was cooked for us was delicious and always prepared with so much care. One of my favorite memories was spending Saturday crafting with the kids. It was so much fun and such a lovely way to connect with Thai Culture. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that I'll always look back on fondly.

My experience at the Filmfarm school was amazing! Being sorrounded by nature, being constantly in touch with locals and learning about their culture, trying pure Thai food made from grandmother was such an awesome experience! Also, The experience teaching was very nice, my ideas of activities were always heard and taken into account, kids were engaged and learning. I really felt like home everyday and I miss Binsi family already!! I'm very grateful to have been given this opportunity, thank you Nao and your whole family for making me feel part of your family ❤️

Nao and her helping-hand sister Rin are leaving deep impact in the community, both in sustainable living and encouraging kids to connect with each other and volunteers through games and practicing english. I had to say goodbye after 2 weeks and it was really hard....to leave such a warm place, people (the locals are so easy to fall for them all) and - Nao's mom cuisine. If you really want meaningfull volunteering give Nao (and all the beautifull kids) a chance. They deserve it.

If you come you will really feel that all the family treat you like part of them, if you get sick or something happens, they truly care about you. Helping the kids and adults was a really greatful time. You don't just teach, litteraly you also have fun, and I think that is the main vision of the proyect: learning does not have to be boring. Thank you Nao and all your family, really good time 😄

My time at Binsi school with Nao and the other volunteers was beyond amazing. Since my arrival I have felt comfortable and relaxed, instantly felt the family environment. Everyone contributes with what they can, including cleaning, preparing and teaching english lessons, building projects, as well as helping Nao's Mom at the kitchen! Almost everyday we would go to the pool (which is beautiful), relax and talk to each other, creating wonderful memories! I couldn't have had a better time, specially as my first volunteer, it definitely made me want to do more!
