Twelve grade 11 students, and three chaperones (James, Peter, and myself) will be making the journey to Baan Nato, Thailand where we will embark on a project that will serve as housing for students visiting the Agricultural College in this area. The little Adobe, seen here, will be made out of clay, straw, and other organic materials. I am going to have to remember my bug repellent!
The fifteen of us will depart Vancouver on March 13 at 2am, and arrive in Hong Kong early in the morning of the 14th. There will be a quick jump over to Bangkok, and then another skip onto Chiangrai, where we will stay for a day before we take a bus to Baan Nato, which is right on the border of Myanmar (Burma) in the North. We will then start the project. Our students will be working with Thai students in this project, so it will be interesting to see how they handle the language barrier...myself included!
In the meantime, I will continue making my travel lists...any ideas?
