  Description

  Hello everyone
  Sa was dee ka, everyone. We welcome volunteers to our garden center.
  
  We run a small garden center near Korat city and used to do farm work growing rice &some vegetables, merchant, investor and selling trees and doing garden work for more than 30 years, our place is 10 km from Korat city. 1.5 hr from Khao Yai National Park, and 3 hrs from Bangkok in Northeast Thailand. Towards Laos, Cambodia.
  
  We are an independent family we have three grown-ups and sometimes young children, elderly.
  Nittaya's favorite hobbies are
  1. Singing, dancing & listening to music
  2. Reading & listening to holy teaching, Dhamma talk, practice
  3. Enjoy time with trees, nature & animals that make me feel freedom, happiness, and compassion.
  
  Behind our house, we have a few chickens and a small fish dam. We grow a few fruit trees and herbs to use in households, small self-sufficiency. We would be very appreciative if you could help around the house and garden center be Nitta ya's helper, good company.
  
  We are looking for a handyman, friends/ couple, or a group of friends who can share one room.
  
  You will be helping out along with Nittaya to start when you know how to do work you can start/continue work efficiently, independently till finish each job then move on to the next job.
  
  when you are here translator /or voice translator is a must, any translator would be very helpful for Nittaya to understand you :)
  Nittaya got help with English for her daughters/ niece so it is important before you come and also during your stay feel free to communicate through this workaway WhatsApp or FB messenger.
  Because Nittaya can only speak the Thai language. Thanks for your patience in advance.
  
  All welcome! Especially those who are genuinely into practicing YOGA and MEDITATION, MINDFULNESSES, OPENED MINDED & Honest, RESPECTFUL :)
  and sometimes building/renovating SML projects the skills would be appropriate but not necessary.
  
  Looking forward to meeting you guys. THANK YOU please introduce ourselves, then arrival & maybe departure date.
  PS Our family here speaks very little/ none of English. Thanks for your patience :)
  
  This month onward will be hotter and sometimes may rain Thai New Year water festival ( World Culture Heritage) heat tolerance is considered :)
