My partners are 2 Thai women and my girlfriend from Myanmar helps me to take care of everything need.
At this moment i have 4 guest houses rented for long term that doesnt need to much work except little bit of maintenance sometime or gardening .
My Girlfriend has a full time job from 8 am to 8 pm sundey she is off .
I mainly work from home that is the place where workawayers will stay .Types of help and learning opportunities

You will learn about Thai culture and island lifestyle while you will live surrounded by awesome flora and fauna.
We use to do volunteering for Burmese people that live and work on the island.
I can show all the hidden gems of Koh Phangan island.
I am a traveller so I can share my experience in solo travelling and give you tips for your future trips but I also like to learn from other experiences.
I love cultural exchanges and open mind people so I hope that besides the jobs we can share our life experiences.

Help
Right now I have 5 houses.
I live with my girlfriend in one of these and the other are rented for long term .
I might need little bit of help in gardening such as cleaning and decorations .
My priority right now is to set up the travel agency and for that i need to build a website that is started already and promote on facebook and instagram .
In addition, I do a blog about my travel life so I might need some help with editing photos and videos and some social marketing.

I am sure that we can spend our time having some international dining where each one can cook something special from the own country. We are meat lovers and if we have any vegans friends, we respect their choice and we use less meat when we are together, we hope that if you are vegetarian or vegan you can respect our choice too.What else ...
Koh Phangan became popular around the world for the Full Moon party that is once a month, but is not only about that .
If we talk about party there is a party almost every day, all the party are in the jungle or in the beach there are no indoor clubs in the island. Each party has a pre party and an after party .
When you are enough with it you can enjoy the vibes of the hippie community to which the Movie The Beach with Leonard Di Caprio was inspired .
You can have snorkeling, kayaking or simply be with your self listening the Fauna of the jungle .
The island is small about 9 km x 6 km , people use to go around with Songthaew, the Pick up style taxi, or motorbike or bicycle or you can just go around hitchhiking, the Koh Phangan community is really open mind and we all hel each other .A little more information
