Thailand, School Construction in Hua Hin Review

“I really enjoyed the experience. The team was amazing, the people I met along the way really made a difference. The project was fun and seeing the kids like our work was heartfelt. I would definitely return to volunteering at some point. The support and involvement of everyone was very motivating as well.”

“Local team and accommodation were amazing, the chefs were super good, but I can say that I missed diversity a bit.”
