This month was the perfect mix of productivity and Lao soul. Between working and hosting our two German volunteers, we always found time for joy—from a trip to the Don Daeng beach to a traditional Baci ceremony.
Alina first visited in 2025 for two weeks but stayed for a month, and she has returned twice this year 2026! She is now truly part of our family and village. Safe travels, and we can’t wait to see you again in November!
