One of the best experiences in my life, every day in the village was amazing. Walking to base every morning, looking at the sunrise, greeting the villagers and dogs around. Eating breakfast, and then going on an awesome hike, each time better than the first, with the opportunity to do night hikes and cave hikes to see other flora and fauna from Thailand. After an always great hike, and beautiful elephants and other interesting creatures, going back to eat homemade lunch by the host family with everyone at base, while chatting and looking at the amazing scenery. After that learning about many different subjects, from elephant conservation, and nature, to social and cultural subjects. Learning the Karen language to be able to communicate deeply with the locals and host family. Then eating diner, sometimes just having it at the host family house, sometimes having it as a cooking class and others sharing with everyone, always having fun. Then going to different English class getting to know the locals, and mahouts (the elephant companions how are in charge of watching them and making sure they are alright) Sometimes have great workshops like basket weaving, or cloths weaving just mentioning some of the most outstanding for me. And after that amazing day, just chilling at base with everyone, watching a movie, playing games, or maybe just going back home and chilling with the host family and learning from them. At the end after all the amazingness of the day, just going back to sleep and having another day just like this next morning. All that I mention it’s just a tiny bit of what all of this is.
It was an unforgettable experience, with a lot of new friends and new adventures and experiences to share.
