Thailand has become the place that you visit on holiday and never want to leave. And for a lot of us, we don’t! It has that hold on you and won’t let you go. For years and years westerners have been travelling to Phuket and settling down and calling it home, and we don’t blame them! Summer all year round, beach on your doorstep, cheap living and friendly people… sounds like a dream to us. But living as an expat in Thailand is very different to visiting as a tourist. The honeymoon wears off and real life sets in!

We’ve all heard the word mindfulness and know that meditation is the latest buzz these days, but what does being mindful actually mean? Meditation isn’t just sitting in a dark room, crossing your legs, closing your eyes and humming for hours on end.

It’s a state where we can block out background noise, turn down the chatter in our heads and just be still.

It’s up to us to help save the elephants and bring them back to their natural habitat. They can’t speak up, but we can speak up for them.
