GIVING BACK TO THE COMMUNITY

Teach English
Our elephant sanctuary is an important part of the local Karen community. As such we visit the local villages at least once a week where there is the opportunity to teach the local children English.
TRAVEL & GIVE BACK
In a times of unethical tourism, we strive to be different: by prioritising social transformation over profit. We believe we can change our environment, our community and all of our lives for the better.
ENSUING SUSTAINABILITY
Work in the eco-farms
Karen tribes have been self-sufficient for hundreds of years through their traditional farming practices. There is the opportunity to witness this life style and even get your hands dirty if you like!

Experience Karen Culture
The Karen Hill Tribes are renowned for their hospitality. At least once a week, we trek to one of the local villages where you will be welcomed into a family home, to eat the locally grown produce and experience a lifestyle and culture that has changed very little with the centuries.
