  Beschreibung

  My name is Champ (yep, that’s really my name!), and after spending several years working in hotels across Mexico, the U.S., and Japan, I returned home to Thailand in early 2023 with a mission to help turn around my family’s small resort business, which has been running for almost 20 years.
  
  Like many local businesses, it faced serious challenges during the pandemic. But instead of giving up, I decided to reimagine what hospitality could look and feel like blending creativity, culture, healing, and heart.
  
  Now, the project is growing into something more than just a hotel. It's slowly becoming a small collective of lifestyle spaces, all rooted in our local community but inspired by stories and ideas from around the world.
  
  ✨ What This Project Is All About
  This is not a typical hotel gig. It’s about helping shape a space that matters to the people who visit, and the people who live here.
  
  We now have a few different areas within our project:
  
  - A nature-based resort mainly serving groups like schools, universities, and teams
  
  - A dreamy glamping concept designed for digital detox and stargazing
  
  - A farm-to-table restaurant inspired by Latin culture and sustainability
  
  - A new wellness space focused on sound healing, meditation, and breathwork
  
  Each space is small but special, and still evolving. Which is why I’m looking for open-hearted, talented people who want to get involved and leave their creative fingerprint on this journey.
  
  💡 Help Needed in 2025
  This is a heart-led project but we’re also serious about doing things well.
  That’s why we’re looking for volunteers who are not only kind and creative, but also professional, passionate, and proud of what they do. If you’ve been honing your skill for years or even just poured your heart into a few meaningful projects this could be your place to shine.
  
  Here’s what we’re currently looking for:
  
  🌐 Website Builders
  We're creating new websites for three of our core projects each with a distinct voice, audience, and purpose.
  If you're a web designer/developer with real-world experience (and a portfolio to show), we would love your help bringing these online homes to life.
  Your thoughtful structure and design will shape how people around the world discover us.
  
  🖥️ Web projects include: our group retreat resort, our farm-to-table restaurant, and our wellness space.
  
  🎨 Graphic & Brand Designers
  We’re putting the final touches on our brand identities and would be thrilled to have a visual storyteller help us bring them to completion. You’d be working on:
  
  - Finalizing logos, color palettes, and font systems
  
  - Crafting brand guideline manuals for future team members
  
  - Helping ensure our visuals feel aligned, heartfelt, and memorable
  
  - Whether you're a branding expert or a skilled designer with a love for meaning, this could be your canvas.
  
  🖌️ Artists & Visual Creatives
  Our spaces are full of potential for beauty, and we’d love your help bringing them to life!
  From mural painting and ambience styling, to giving feedback on layout, furniture, or overall mood — we welcome artists with an eye for aesthetics to co-create magic on-site.
  
  🏡 Landscape / Interior Architects
  We’re in the early stages of designing a living farm experience that merges hospitality, education, and sustainability.
  If you have a background in landscape or interior architecture even as a student or recent grad with solid training , your perspective could deeply shape this vision.
  
  We’re also continuously upgrading our spaces to be more guest-friendly, peaceful, and beautiful. Your insights would be invaluable.
  
  📸 Photographers & Videographers
  We’re preparing media kits for all of our spaces and would love to collaborate with:
  
  - Photographers (especially in architecture, F&B, and lifestyle)
  
  - Videographers or editors who can create short-form brand content
  
  - If you’re experienced, passionate, and excited to capture something meaningful, we’ll give you stories to tell and plenty of beauty to shoot.
  
  🧘 Wellness Experts & Facilitators
  Our wellness space is small, soulful, and growing. We’re looking for facilitators or coaches with experience in:
  
  - Sound healing
  
  - Meditation
  
  - Breathwork
  
  Other forms of inner work or somatic practice
  
  You can help us design a simple program or offer a few sessions to our guests and team. Either way, your presence will ripple far beyond the time you’re here.
  
  🎸 (Optional) Musicians & Acoustic Artists
  Every now and then, we host cozy live nights at our café-bar space. If you sing, play guitar, or just love acoustic vibes, your presence would be a beautiful bonus. No pressure, just a few heartfelt sets under the stars.
  
  🌏 Why This Is Special
  I started my journey as a Workawayer too. Since I was 18, I’ve traveled and volunteered in different countries and learned how important it is to become a global citizen, someone who listens, adapts, and contributes.
  
  That’s why I care so much about creating a space that invites other dreamers, creatives, and changemakers to come in and shape it with me.
  
  This project is based in Sai Yok, Kanchanaburi — a peaceful, nature-rich region in the western part of Thailand. It’s the kind of place that offers real stillness far from the bustle of Bangkok or the crowds of Thailand’s southern beaches and northern tourist zones.
  
  Here you’ll find:
  
  - Serene rivers and waterfalls
  
  - Lush green mountains
  
  - An elephant sanctuary nearby
  
  - Friendly locals and slower, meaningful days
  
  You can even take a scenic daily train ride from Bangkok Thonburi Station — a 4-hour journey through the countryside that feels like stepping into a different world.
  
  If you're someone who:
  
  1. Wants to experience Thai culture in a real and grounded way
  
  2. Loves quiet nature, open skies, and meaningful projects
  
  3. Has a skill you’re proud of and want to offer for good
  
  Then I think you’ll feel right at home here.
  
  💌 A Note About Applying
  If this speaks to you, please send a message along with your CV, portfolio, or website link, it really helps us reply more quickly and understand how we can create something beautiful together.
  
  We care most about intention, energy, and integrity in your craft, whether you’re a seasoned pro or an inspired creator. When great energy meets great skill, beautiful things happen.
  
  Can’t wait to meet the kind souls this season will bring.
  
  Warmly,
  Champ

PLUS! we have motorbike for rent at the resort with discounted price and you will also get 15% off for any F&B consumption for volunteer price, so you can design your program on your day off and explore around the beautiful town& nature. You can also come back to Bangkok with my parents for shopping, visiting a capital city and free accommodation in Bangkok is also available on your days off :)
