Description
I dont accept any friends since 2020 (Covid situation) . Now, I'm gonna start accept friends from NOW 2023
Our place is a mountain valley village with pure air and a head-spring flowing through it. The people grow and eat their own rice and many vegetables. The elderly live longer than average lives in this beautiful natural place. With waterfalls, hot springs, perfect ecology, graceful culture and simple way of life. Located between Chiangmai-Pai. (1 hour from Pai, 2 hours from Chiangmai) me and volunteers always spend a weekend in Pai.
I'm a musician. I've been traveled overland form my homeland(Chiangmai, Thailand) to europe. The best experience of my travels has been the help of the people I've met along the way. And so I've chosen to help in return by sharing my experience, and to be good host to the travellers I meet.

Mostly planting, making compost, bamboo work and some construction. You also have a daily task to do twice a day which is watering or fertilising.
