Great Experience

I spent a relatively short time at CNF, but every minute was worth it, and I wish I could have stayed longer. The staff is so friendly and helpful with your project. You know that what ever you're working on will make a large and direct impact on the NGO. Pai is also an incredible place where you can meet incredible people and get to learn about Thai culture. It has been one of the most meaningful experiences in my life.

Good internship with lots of responsibility in a beautiful area

Pai is a sweet small town with beautiful nature surrounding and lots of things to do and people to meet. The staff of CNF is really relaxed and flexible and they take good care of you. For me the internship was a really good experience and added so much to my personal and professional development. Conserve Natural Forests is a small organization so I got much more involved in the organisation than during my last internship in a big NGO. Here, you are really part of the team, getting serious tasks en responsibilities. I worked hard because it is a serious thing we were working on, but I never felt stressed. I enjoyed the area, I met great people, and I got to see a lot from the country in a way that I would never have seen it as a normal tourist.
