    Need help to raise 1 year old baby + small maintenance projects in our eco house on the sumptuous island of Koh Chang, Thailand!

    Nature lovers, ecologists, we live in an « Earthbags house » on the sumptuous island of Koh Chang in Trat, Thailand.

    The house was built with sacks of earth found locally; the floor with wood. We used natural resources found on the spot, so the house is as ecological as possible.

    Now we have a 1 year old baby, and we need help to raise him in a respectful way (proximal mothering, free and non-violent education). We are French so it would be great to have an English, or Thai, or Hungarian speaker, in order for the baby to hear and learn another language.


    Skills in vegan cuisine would also be appreciated.

    We also need help for small maintenance projects in the house: to build bamboo furniture, improve the plumbing and electricity, make a permaculture garden grow...

    What would be great for us is to have one or two volunteers, with skills in caring for toddlers, and also skills in DIY, and an interest in free education and ecological constructions.

    We offer accommodation (+ food or compensation) in a paradisiac environment, in a beautiful resort near a lagoon, 100 meters away from an amazing beach! And we guarantee a friendly and relaxed atmosphere!

    We need you 5 hours a day, 5 days a week.
