    Om programmet

    A significant number of Thai families are living in substandard housing conditions, and numerous essential community areas and facilities such as hospitals, temples, and schools are in dire need of improvement.

    To address this issue, volunteers will assist in enhancing the living conditions of the local community by providing crucial support in construction and renovation work. This could involve constructing proper sanitation facilities, making housing safer, and empowering communities to take charge of their development initiatives.

    Tasks can range from cleaning the area, mixing cement, and painting to more complex duties such as plastering walls and repairing roofs. Our coordinator, who possesses extensive construction expertise, will closely supervise and instruct you to guarantee the safety of all processes and ensure that the housing conditions are safe for the local residents.

    You will be working on ongoing construction and renovation projects and participating in new projects aimed at benefiting the local community.

    Afhentning i lufthavnen i Chiang Mai International Airport

    Programs begin every Monday, and volunteers are required to arrive the day prior, for orientation before the project. Your accommodation on the Sunday is included in the program fees.


    A free airport pickup is included when arriving to Chiang Mai Airport (CNX), Level 1, Door 5. You must arrive between 08.00 and 16:00 on Sunday.


    If arriving outside the pickup times you will need to pay an additional fee for any extra night’s accommodation, and a private transfer to our accommodation.


    Alternatively, if arriving early you could wait at the arrival’s terminal for the pickup time, book accommodation at the airport and meet us during the pickup times or make your own way to the project (we will advise on how to do this).


    From the airport to the accommodation in Chiang Mai, it takes around 30-45 mins by Taxi/Song Teaw. This is not including any delays that may occur.    

    Indkvartering

    You will stay in a nice volunteer house with all the standard facilities like WiFi, hot showers and aircon/fans. Rooms are single gender and fit 4-8 people. Private rooms can be booked for an additional fee. We also have an open and lovely lakeside where you can get some fresh air. There is also a beautiful dining area where you can have a cup of tea and coffee and hang out with fellow volunteers. Table tennis is also available!

    *Accommodation may be in our local centre or in close proximity, depending on availability and time of year.


    Private Room Upgrade: please contact us directly for options and pricing

    *Please note: Upgrade prices can change, so please check the price with us first

    Mad og drikkevarer

    3 meals a day are provided, and 2 on weekends. All the meals served inside the accommodation are homestyle, vegetarian-friendly and you can expect that they will be typically Thai style dishes, including plenty of rice or noodle dishes with vegetables and occasionally some meat and fish will be provided as well, along with seasonal fruits for dessert.

    While we do our best to accommodate our participants, what we provide for most meals is local cuisine. If you are a picky eater or allergies, have dietary restrictions, or if you think that you will not be satisfied with the local dishes provided, you might want to consider supplementing our menu with your own western type foods and snacks that are more to your liking.
