Hey there! I'm Seu, originally from a small town called Chiang Dao. After years of running a bar in bustling Bangkok, I realized my heart longed for the peace of nature. So, I returned home and created the camp. It's a place where you can escape the city, learn survival skills, connect with nature and explore your artistic side. We even give back by planting trees and supporting our community!
