The Experience

My name is Watchara and I have been a tour guide for 10 years. I am a former Buddhist monk and school with experience in teaching meditation techniques. I am offering a unique Thai experience that allows me to be a part of your wonderful trip to Thailand. The facilities are simple but clean, with a shared toilet and washing facilities, and small bamboo thatch roofed houses for sleeping. There is no electricity in the farm.

They make you feel at home, the place is simple in the middle of the nature, really quite, with the little village 10 minutes by walk from the farm with some little shops. The work is very varied and it depends season to season. The meals are really tasty. So it is a good experience

The farm and his family are really fantastic people, Deng is an exceptional cook and always cooked delicious food. The experience at the beginning was a bit difficult because you have to get used to living without electricity, with cold water and the bed in the hut is uncomfortable but living there slowly makes you appreciate the slow life, living with the locals and understanding their habits was really nice. I am so grateful about the walking meditation in the morning and the meditation in the evening near the fire. Beautiful experience, i recommend it!
