Back to nature!

Taking the family and venturing out into nature and living from the land is a great experience.

Here in Thailand we are basically living in the jungle so it is very easy for us to experience if we want and have enough know how. The “mothers” of one of the houses decided to take the girls out into the jungle for a day where they also cooked food on a fire and using produce straight from the jungle. It was a wonderful day in which they got to enjoy nature, food and each other.
