Bringing people together

We said yes to this trip because of you. Bringing people together, enjoying each other and making a small difference along the way is how we wish to spend our life, time and energy.

Sharing Thailand with our friends is a deep passion. It brings pure joy to our hearts that you decided to join us. Even knowing about the many wonderful communities and experiences that await, the best part of these trips is connecting and getting to know the caring individuals that participate. Thank you and see you in Buddhaland.

Noi and I spend three months each year in Chiang Mai. It is our time to be with family and time to expand our community outreach in the village and throughout Thailand.

Our time in Thailand is a relaxing time of year where I can also enjoy our home and have the time to write new songs. Our home in the village is where the song Buddhaland was inspired. Karl

The stars Aligned

We love music and know it enhances all experiences and we are really looking forward to this trip!! The timing was perfect for us and seemed like the stars aligned.

We have sailed the seas for many years, living on our own sailboat, but it has been awhile since we have traveled. Now were ready.

The SEVA projects definitely resonate with our heart and the ease of traveling with someone we completely trust, Karl & Noi, is perfect.

We enjoy playing music and love to sing and share with new people. Meeting Noi’s friends and family will also be a real treat.

See you soon in Chiang Mai.

a Beautiful World

Whether or not it is clear to me, no doubt the universe is unfolding as it should.

Whatever my labors and aspirations, in the noisy confusion of life, I strive to be cheerful and of service to the finish. It is still a beautiful world.

I look forward to meeting you and diving into this wonderful experience.

Trip of a lifetime

MARK - Lots of activity in our lives and a few health challenges this year to breathe into. We look forward to meeting and greeting everyone.

I was a pilot in the Marines, started a few business enterprises and made my way through enough school to become a psychologist.

I became politically active in Houston, joining organizations like the ACLU, the NAACP and political campaigns. I still work part-time, enjoying laughing, eating healthfully, playing chess, Pickleball and learning as much as I can about this bizarre world.

ANGIE - I've been working in a skilled nursing facility for a while as Director of Activities. I signed up for this trip to be with Mark, experience the beauty of Thailand and most specially I'd like to make a difference and witness Thailand looking through the eyes of those precious children. I know this is going to be a trip of a lifetime

Chiang Rai Host

Our dear friends Kai & Jib, who are our amazing hosts in the northern hill country and city of Chiang Rai.
