I had the best experience at the home, Wat and Benz are both great hosts. They always took good care of me, made me feel safe. Benz was cooking great vegetarian meals for me every day, which i was very grateful for. Wat took the time to show me around the neighbourhood and always came up with ideas and activities to do during my time.
i would wholeheartedly recommend this place for anyone who wants to chill, explore and have a good time while meeting other international travelers.

My experience at the home was very great! Wat is a very thoughtful and caring host- he will do everything he can to make you comfortable, including buying us many boba teas!! Benz is an amazing chef and cooked so many delicious meals for us. He is also very caring and only wants the best for you! My experience was filled with fun activities around the village and I got to meet volunteers from farms nearby as well. There wasn't much work to do during rainy season, but I did paint a mural on their property during my stay, which was awesome.

I really enjoyed my stay here. The host is a very kind and caring person. He cares not only about our physical comfort but also about how we feel. The place is very quiet and peaceful, more like a homestay where you can relax and experience village life. His family is lovely, and his uncle cooked delicious food for us. There are also lots of dogs — they bark a lot, but they're actually very cute! Because of the rain, we couldn't travel outside the village, but we often visited nearby farms, met other volunteers, and sometimes joined their activities.

The home is a one of a kind place that made me feel so at home. Wat and Benz are such amazing people who care very much about their space and only want what's best for the home and for everybody who visits! They are friendly and fun people who will make sure you're always happy, comfortable and full of delicious food. I think anyone looking for a great volunteer/work experience in Northern Thailand should visit!

I stayed much longer than I expected and I loved every single day! the home is such a lovely place in a small village. Wat and Benz are wonderful hosts - I felt very much at home since day one because they're both so caring. Wat is always up for adventures and Benz is a brilliant cook! As it was raining season there was not much work to do - but when there was, it was always great fun! We also went in regular outgoings, for example to the jungle, hot springs, elephant sanctuary, a local festival, and so on… I had a really great time and I would definitely come back!
