Volunteering has become especially popular in Thailand. Volunteering is not only a great way to travel inexpensively, but also to fully immerse yourself in Thai culture and enjoy the diverse surroundings. Thailand is a mecca for all kinds of travelers and has been for decades. Nature lovers are particularly attracted to this Southeast Asian country due to its versatile landscapes. From the mountains in the north to the beaches in the south and everything in between, Thailand offers a little something for everyone. Here are 5 selected places, where volunteering combines work, education & leisure in a proper, organic proportion. look'n learn with old-time pro Mr J isn't a newbie in property deals - for the long time he was working on Phangan radio, contacting with locals all around the island. Its wasn't a minimal-tech-house or even psy-trance radio - it was a live station with actual info for tuk-tuk drivers - who's pay better for fresh arrivals of farangs. Mr J has a van with many mirrors, and know how to use them. Day was rainy, this time we visited 3 places -
However radio was closed, real estate isn't a main occupation of Mr J, and he is usually busy with other things. So to order a SHOW with him I thinking to offer it as a advance-reserved paid service, to cover gasoline and time - "Many people look, many speak, many time spent, and only some buy..." - confessed the hero.

Making the move to Thailand can be easier if you understand what is required of you prior to the move. To make the move, documents and specific requirements need to be met. Learn about these requirements here. What You Need to Do for the Move There are many reasons to move to Thailand. However, the most common reason is for retirement. Working in Thailand is strictly prohibited for foreigners, even volunteer work. If you are self-employed or work remotely however and work via the internet for yourself, you will be able to earn an income that way, but you will not be able to find a local job. To live in Thailand, you will need to obtain a visa. To qualify for a non-immigrant visa, you must be at least 50 years old, hold a valid passport that does not expire within a year and have proof of their financial requirements. The income requirements for those retiring to Thailand need to be 65,000 THB each month or 800,000 THB in a Thai bank account. There can also be a combination of a steady income stream and cash money in the Thai account, but it must equal 800,000 THB together. AFter the recent scam story with AibBnb I made a jet-dive-Inn into the villa rental picture of today, and going to get share the results of my impressions and even will try to use them for "common benefits".. The most surprising for me were following news:
Was in construction for the time enough to built a Palace, High Stone Villa recently was completed. Some of the most delicate, hard and important jobs was made by the owner himself. Then, when the villa was done and koh Phangan stock was thorouthly explored, owners went to travel - first around the Thailand, then South-East Asian neighbours, then the rest of the world, what was easy. At the day I visited the house I can say - its look perfect, and worth all the efforts which were made. Spacious, with a few different outdoor chill areas, its has two residence spaces - house for guest next to the main 2-floored one. Avoiding long stories about the place you'll stay or not, we going to post more photos, video-clip and best rates, together with owner's direct contqact for booking on dedicated villa page. best phangan villas, best prices, fast booking - progress of dozen villas While we are here concept of Dozen Villas has constant progress - I meeting and chatting both with the old pals" and new fortunate villa owners, trying in a shortest possible way to explain and offer them to join. Together with few of them we're going to have a offline meeting, where over a cut of good tea/coffee with bite of chocolate we hope to polish the details, after what this post will be updated.
9 of March money was returned - with no excuses or even comments, but its doesn't matter - we WON! INTRO - someone hacked Airbnb account of 1 of our Phangan villa owners and made few changes to open the way to send later the money for long booking of the villa to unknown bank account, what was added together with new telephone number and creating a new filters in Google mail account. Strange thing was in "login hostory" - was deleted - which could be made only by someone working in Airbnb office - but villa owner catch the chance to make the screenshots of that magic movement. Investigation started from long period of silence - from all the official ways of the Airbnb contacts. On day 3 - at 2-nd of March - we tried various Airbnb Twitter accounts and eventually got the reply - since that time we're in rare communication, and days after this case even was marked as "urgent" -but no money still - its arrived only week after, while we use all the ways to get them back. Read the full story - starting from the latest news, added with screens - to get the idea how the villa rental market onPhaNgan working today. 9 of March - Win Win Win! - Airbnb issued the money transfer by Paypal - so its worth to try all you can to get the result - sometimes its happens! 5 of March - no any news about the money, but I started new stream with them - offer Airbnb to be $-partner of our island's Eco-center - as the only beautiful solution of that weird story. If we'll succeed I will delete this post - so take anything what can be useful! Here's the story of that idea on Twitter: Nice! Question while you're on - how can I contact department of Airbnb charity or similar guys there? That big house of story - the only big beach house here - planned to be transformed to "Marine research Center" - where the last guests supposed to be Airbnb-clients - Brian in May. Plan was to try to make them very happy - our Last Villa Guests. Now I sent them all messages with warinings - probably didn't add happiness:) So its not too late to replay that in more positive & vital way - to make AirBnbn our sponsor! Much earlier than 7 of March you can see detailed plan about that here on fund's eco blog. And for your personal assistance - you who's replying me - can get unique item - one of just 3 among existed ostrich eggs painted by some of the coolest among living painters! - and we will beautifully finish the story - which is now non-a-gem of our website :) Please consider it with well-balanced attention - we have box for the egg and will send it like a white pigeon in a sky. @AirbnbHelp No problem!

42% below From website's creator. "Ages ago in 200n, when pra-Phanganbiz was just made (its called "Liveonphangan"), jungle area of virgin nature occupied more than 70% of the island's area - this was a number I saw posted everywhere both in web and paper guides, convincing that the things going well, and the sign to calm down with our real estate successes will be easily visible - God please forgive eternal newbies:00) Now, after experience with a few island's eco-projects, including Tree Protection Concept, Water Saving Plan, creation of a new values, inspiring Eco-news etc, I meeting a new envoromentally-conscious people from various circles, and the new up-to-date number shows as just a 40% - protected area of national park on Koh Phangan, while all the rest will be inevitably "developed". What, according to the modern understanding of that in complex of its definition, is no good for anyone. This standartized "development" is never good even for those who earning on it, in a long-term view, in a situation of danger for the whole. Together with couple of recent's new occurences and talks about the violations of national park's borders, its makes me change the natural wish of easy enrichment by continuing my work in property, at least in it "classic" meaning. Then we come to the plan to find a "Eco-curing" solutions in a ways of life with all the affordable comforts - we soon found that those comforts are many - and the idea was supported by community. This is a main plan we still working upon. Follow this easy-to-read-story to know more and maybe share your thoughts & ideas.
