    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We live in the Golden Triangle, a popular backpacking destination, which is situated in Chiang Saen with easy access (on the border) to get to Laos and Myanmar.

    Our family speaks Thai and you would have the opportunity to learn the language. You will see our way of life on a daily basis and you will get to try out the local cuisine. The sun rises and sets very close to where we live, so you can see that too!

    Also, we have 3 families close by who are also taking part in this programme so you will get to meet other Workawayers as well!

  • Help

    Help

    We would love to have a fluent English-speaking volunteer (native speaker is preferred) to help us practise English. As my younger son is home-schooled, I would be grateful if the volunteer can help with teaching other subjects as well (maths, science, other languages, sports, etc.) My older son is going to a state school but he would also benefit from practising his English when he is at home.
