Success!

Last weekend during our last stint on the farm, we got word from Kim Obermeyer (Ecolodge Founder/Manager) that we will definitely be care taking the island. After reading and relaying the brief email there were no words that can describe the feelings that came over both Keri and I.

So our journey will begin at Koh Ra island on the Andaman Sea of on mainland Thailand. Currently signed up for 4.5 months, this adventure will test us mentally and physically. With most of the island undocumented, we will have our hands full during our free time after our duties to try to help with the island progression. Its hard to say what exactly we will be doing, but there is some base line work that is mandatory for us. Making sure bungalows are upright and in good condition, electricity, water supply, kitchen, housing amongst other duties. We will try to get a daily regiment down so we both don't go nuts, morning Qigong exercises followed by chores, afternoon yoga, kayaking, swimming, Exploring, maybe have some form of school or reading hour, really anything to keep our minds and body active will be essential.

To keep the body in good health is a duty, otherwise we shall not be able to keep our mind strong and clear. ~Buddha
