VOLUNTEER
Volunteering is one of the best things you can do in any country you visit. The volunteer opportunities in Thailand are abundant. Take your pick from helping in schools to helping preserve the natural beauty of the country. When considering your options, think about where your natural talents lie. Any volunteer experience will be satisfying, but one that uses your skills will be even more so. There’s no better way to experience a country than to get involved in the culture in such a fundamental way. Volunteer for a life changing experience that makes a real difference!
MONASTERY
Thailand is a Buddhist country and offers the chance to stay at a variety of monasteries. Whether you have an interest in Buddhism or want the opportunity to open your mind, this could be the thing. A stay in a monastery promises to teach valuable skills such as meditation and self-control. It could also help you get in touch with your elusive spirituality. Choose from locations such as Wat Suan Dok monastery, where you can book a two-day retreat. Or, choose The International Buddhist Centre in Prathat Doi Suthep. You can stay there for up to a month if you decide to.
TRIBES
Due to remote destinations, and rich forests, Thailand is home to many tribes. You could open your eyes to a whole new way of life by taking the time to visit one during your stay. Make sure to do your research when planning this excursion. You can’t rock up to any tribe you fancy! Your best bet is a visit to the hill tribes in Chiang Mai. Make sure to arrange your visit through an established company. This will ensure your safety and the integrity of the tribe! Remember that you’ll be imposing on a community. Stay respectful!
