Sawaddee ka ^_^
A Bangkok born-and-bred ex-business consultant wanting to live a different lifestyle.. so I started my stress-free way of life in a rural area. The ultimate goal is to live efficiently on my small land, applying Buddha's philosophy with a little hope to be able to provide for the less fortunate kids and elders.
In the beginning of 2013, I started a small organic kitchen garden within existing non-commercial tropical-fruit orchards of my family with a hidden agenda to be the first organic farmhouse in this tiny village close to Ratchaburi town and hopefully the villagers will see the benefits of organic gardening/farming.

*******************
The farm is in Ratchaburi province. To get here, you have the options of train, bus, and van to Ratchaburi town center. It is only 1 hour and 40 mins by bus from southern bus terminal in Bangkok and only 1 hour by car. Ratchaburi train station only 10km away from my farm and trains depart daily from Hua Lum Pong station in Bangkok. Vans from Victory Monument in Bangkok also reach here. Let me know which you will travel on and I will pick you up.
You can practice your Thai language skills here, blend in with the locals, experience the real local lifestyle and possibly be the only foreigner in the area. You will hardly come across an English speaking person.
