Why this trip?
In a world where traditions are fading fast, Mai Khao still stands proud. I deeply admire this community and their love for preserving local culture and natural heritage — something that’s disappearing in many parts of Phuket. I created this trip to support and share their rare, authentic way of life with the world.
