About this Retreat
Your Guides
Born and raised in Thailand, his journey began at the age of 14 helping run his family's business. Despite being highly successful, he felt a lack of greater fulfillment. At the age of 17, he began practicing meditation, and after years of practice, came to realize that Dhamma was accessible and capable of truly helping people attain inner happiness. He decided to ordain as a Buddhist monk in 2011, and has been sharing the wisdom of meditation ever since.
