Your retreat will be led by Rebeccah Bartlett, who lived in Chiang Mai for nearly a decade and has guided more than 100 volunteers abroad through her deeply meaningful retreat experiences. With over 15 years of experience running international volunteer trips, Rebeccah brings a wealth of knowledge, compassion, and cultural insight to every journey.

She is a trauma-informed 500-hour experienced yoga teacher, certified in Ayurveda, a Reiki Master, and a passionate community connector. Her deep love for Thai culture and commitment to mindful service creates a retreat experience that is both transformative and rooted in authenticity. Rebeccah lives for helping others grow through adventure, self-discovery, and heartfelt connection.

Throughout the retreat, you will enjoy stays at hand-selected 4-star boutique hotels in Chiang Mai City, Doi Saket, and Chiang Dao. Each property has been chosen for its comfort, charm, and connection to the surrounding culture, offering a peaceful place to rest, reflect, and recharge.

These accommodations are locally owned and full of character, blending Thai design with modern amenities. You will experience serene garden settings, thoughtfully designed rooms, and welcoming hospitality that reflects the heart of Northern Thailand.

All locations feature a swimming pool, perfect for a refreshing dip after a day of volunteering, exploring, or practicing yoga. A daily breakfast is included at each hotel, often featuring a mix of Thai and Western offerings made with fresh, local ingredients.

Whether nestled in the quiet rice fields of Doi Saket or surrounded by the stunning limestone mountains of Chiang Dao, these beautiful hotels are more than a place to stay. They are an integral part of your retreat experience.

Get ready to enjoy some of the most vibrant and flavorful cuisine Chiang Mai has to offer. From beloved street food stalls to charming local restaurants, you will experience the rich culinary culture of Northern Thailand in both authentic and accessible ways.

Your host has spent over a decade exploring Chiang Mai and loves introducing retreat participants to hidden gems and must-visit spots that reflect the heart of Thai hospitality. Meals will be thoughtfully chosen to highlight regional specialties while honoring your preferences and restrictions. Whether you are vegan, vegetarian, gluten-free, or have specific allergies, we will ensure your needs are accommodated with care.

Expect a delicious mix of shared group meals, culinary adventures, and opportunities to try new flavors in a supportive and inclusive setting. Every meal is a chance to connect, celebrate, and nourish your body and spirit.

DescriptWhile many Thais speak English, your host is conversational in Thai and will be available to help bridge any language gaps. During volunteer activities, interpreters will be present to assist in communicating with non-English-speaking community members. All tours and retreat programming will be conducted in English to ensure a smooth and enriching experience for all participants.ion text goes here

Please know that all activities are optional. This is your adventure, and we encourage you to participate in a way that feels right for you. There is no expectation to do everything. Some experiences may be more intrepid than others, but we will always provide details in advance so you can make an informed choice.

For example, there is a scenic 4-mile hike included in the itinerary. For those who prefer a shorter walk, we will divide into two groups and offer transportation to the top of the mountain so everyone can enjoy the overlook comfortably.

Daily yoga will be an all-levels flow, thoughtfully tailored to the group’s energy and needs. Our goal is to create a supportive space where you feel inspired, nurtured, and completely at ease.

Over the past 20 years of working closely with our partner communities in Northern Thailand, we have built lasting relationships based on trust, collaboration, and shared purpose. Each retreat is intentionally shaped by both the current needs of the community and the unique strengths of our group. Prior to departure, we will hold a few virtual meetings to get to know one another and assess the skills and interests of our volunteers.

No matter your background or experience, there is something meaningful you can contribute. Past projects have included organizing vision and dental clinics with local and volunteer doctors, supporting environmental cleanup efforts, offering nutrition workshops, leading movement or art sessions for schoolchildren, and creating joyful field days for underserved schools.

If you are wondering “what could I possibly offer,” know that our volunteers have ranged in age from 12 to 80 and come from all walks of life including students, artists, dancers, educators, doctors, and lawyers. What matters most is your willingness to show up with an open heart. We are here to help you connect with your purpose and contribute in a way that feels authentic and impactful.
