New bungalows for private meditation retreats. When I returned to Thailand this week I was overjoyed to find 8 new meditation bungalows ready for retreats.

Each building is a pair of bungalows and each bungalow has a single bedroom and en suite bathrom, with additional seating areas at the front and the back.

The retreat centre is tucked away from the main road and is 5km from the nearest town. While visiting today I was immediately taken back to how peaceful the area is and I remembered why we decided to build the retreat center right here 😀

The next project will be to erect the 3 life-size marble statues that have just arrived in crates. We are hoping to get that done before the monk's rainy season retreat starts in Thailand.
