How to participate in Ecological Projects in Southeast Asia

Southeast Asia has a large part of its economy linked to tourism, agriculture and livestock, with 70% of the inhabitants living in the countryside, making it an amazing destination for those that want to work abroad on farms. For just a few hours of work in exchange for accommodation, the amount of knowledge gained from everything the people have to teach you will make your experience very unique.
