The Wonders of Thai Cuisine

The Wonders of Thai Cuisine


Every single foreigner that sets foot in Thailand has a gastronomic experience that is truly unique, and with Thai cuisine having a well-deserved global reputation, our volunteers and interns get to sample authentic local cuisine. Thailand is regarded by many as the garden of the world, (they are the world’s biggest supplier of Jasmine rice) and the very long list of delicious fruits and vegetables that grow here allows the locals to prepare some truly amazing dishes. You would never believe what can be produced from rice, which, aside from being the staple meal component, can also be transformed into delicious desserts, and they even make their own style of rice whisky (Lao Kao), which you simply must try. <br />

A New Season of Projects

A New Season of Projects


The hot season has drawn to a close here in Thailand and the recent stormy weather in many parts of the country heralds not just the start of the rainy season but the start of several exciting new volunteer projects in Bangkok and Chiang Mai for our organization. It has been more than a month since our last new project start date so we are all very keen to get stuck into these new ventures and to ensure that each one reaches as many people as possible. Whether you are currently in Thailand or elsewhere in the world, we hope that you enjoyed your local Songkran celebrations and are looking forward to working with our organization in the near future!<br />
