Description
We are a group of four friends transforming a peaceful, shady, streamside property into a co-living and community space that welcomes travelers eager to exchange ideas and learn with us. Located in a quiet area of Chiang Rai, the project is being developed step-by-step in collaboration with local craftspeople.
I handle the design of the buildings, the site layout, and activities, as well as material sourcing. None of the four of us draw a salary from this project, as we all have our own primary careers.
We work alongside one local skilled craftsman and an assistant.
You do not need any specific professional skills or prior experience to join us; simply come ready to share experiences and live together in this space—or even pursue a project of your own. -

Cultural exchange and learning opportunities
At our project, we believe cultural exchange happens through everday life rather than in a classroom.
Volunteers can experience the simple lifestyle of Northern Thailand, work alongside local craftsmen,exchange languages, cultures, and travel stories, and share their own skills with the team.
If you're interested in coffee, crafts, cycling, healthy food, or slow living, we'd be happy to learn from each other. -

My animals / pets
Cha 0m
Cha-om is our resident dog and has been with us since we rescued him as a puppy during a Bike Touring Trip.
He is now 8 years old and is friendly, gentle, and used to people. He may bark when someone new arrives, but it's simply his way of letting us know. Once he gets to know you, he quickly becomes relaxed and friendy-especially if you have snack.
Ff you enjoy being around dogs, Cha-om will probably become one of your companions during your stay at ComeMoon.
