  1. Hilltribe Learning Centre

    Set on a remote hillside 10km south of Sangkhlaburi is the Hilltribe Learning Centre. When Buddhist nun Pimjai Maneerat went to meditate in the forest in 1997 she was soon asked by ethnic groups to teach them. The centre she founded has grown and now has a rudimentary school for its 70 children, but remains an extremely remote outreach program. Students are mostly Karen and learn Thai language and basic life skills. Without the centre, they would have no education. Nun Pimjai, who runs the place virtually single-handedly, welcomes any volunteers who can teach or help with daily chores. English teachers are particularly needed.

    Basic accommodation is available for anyone…
