Volunteers stay in bamboo apartments surrounded by nature, each accommodating up to four volunteers. Every room has a bathroom with a hot shower. There’s no air conditioning, but the camp’s mountain location keeps the air fresh and the nights pleasantly cool.
During the weekend, volunteers are transferred to the city to enjoy a change of scenery and experience local life. Accommodation is provided in a volunteer house with a kitchen, living room, and three floors, each with two rooms that can host up to three volunteers per room.
Meals are not included during the weekend, giving you the freedom to cook your own meals, explore local restaurants, or share a meal with other volunteers while discovering Thai flavours.
