Last month (July) SDRF sent me to went with the volunteer team from GrX from LA to serve the area of Nan Province in Norther Thailand for teaching and visit some local churches, It was the really first real teaching for both the GrX and me at the school call BoYuak...so here some stories
The road in front of Boklua View Resort ถนนหน้า บ่อเกลือวิว รีสอร์ท จังหวัดน่าน
Our 'Little Big' only airline's plane
The truck we using along 9 days of the trip... well on somedays we use 4WD when there some mud&land&rock slide after the 4 days long raining ....
At the School
 Real pure and beauty.......... especially the pre-school kids :)... there something in their eyes thats bright and shiny rare to find in the city's kids or any places..
Lunch time
The youngers Grade 1-3 lined up...
They wait until everybody together, say grace (in Thai way) thank you for the food, to the nature, teachers, person who cooks and eat this meal remind that there many people in starvation ..so we will not waste the food'.
  The stream running down the hill around the school.  Here's the old dorm for the student who has to walk very long distance (some of them walk up to 11kms) to school. The older taking care of the younger while they are at the school on weekdays. Nowadays, GrX partnership with SDRF coordinate to build new buildings 1the junior high school building 2 teacher dorm/residence 3 new student dorm+school building. See this for more detail
And How about our food?... Here the pictures.....
Food at the School
Food at Bokluaview Resort
Toun and his folks at Bo Klua View provided us the warm welcome service. I falling in love with the lady who working there 'ป้าขัน' or auntie Khan she's lovely and has a very warm genuine heart. And Yes! Great food, (that avocado dressed with deep fried bacon and white sauce is a-m-a-z-i-n-g), Toun is the manager/owner of this place (and a great chef .. have you been eat at Dusit Thani Hotel? thats where he from... see that drink, he made it with the decoration) Thanks for the dinner Toun!, this guy been living in Australia for a couple years. But still, he has such a great deep genuine heart for people in his own root community, involving and dedicated himself to the sustain the purity of the way of BoKlua people's life.
 Sightseeing and Uhh What Bo Klua mean?
Bo Klua means Salt well, this is the only place in Thailand that has a salt mine on the mountain. In the ancient time, this is the precious area, people need salt till they fought in the war. But now, this is the peaceful area plenty with people that always welcome you with their hospitality.....
