Nipaphon Leacher - Environmental Educator

​

Hello, I am Miza. I come from Chiang Rai, in the northern part of Thailand. I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in the English Program. I was born in the countryside and grew up in a mountainous city, which is a tourist attraction village. This upbringing has made me passionate about traveling and living with nature. I also completed an internship with Traidhos Camp in 2020, which inspired me to learn more about environmental sustainability. After graduating from university, I started working at an international school in my hometown. I love joining outdoor activities and challenging myself. That's why I decided to further my learning and knowledge development.

​

Now, I am a part of the Traidhos Barge team, and it has been a year since I started working here to learn and share my knowledge about the natural environment. I am excited to meet you and hope that we can learn and enjoy the experience together!

Hi, I'm Mario and I am a naturalist from India.

Charlotte - Environmental Educator

Hi, my name is Charlotte and I'm from the UK, Newcastle to be precise, up in the North East where it is nice and cold.        I studied marine zoology at Newcastle University and have since worked in science communication. But my love for exploration and outreach (and animals big and small), I found myself coming to join the Barge program. To share that experience with likeminded people and share my excitement for our amazing planet with the next generation.

Suwanan Sally - Environmental Educator 

​

Hello, my name is Sally.  I am 23 years old. I graduated from Payap University, a private university in northern Thailand.  I grew up in a family of farmers surrounded by nature. However, during the 12 years I spent studying in the city, I was away from nature. When I had the opportunity to intern for 4 months and participate in a summer camp with Traidhos Three-Generation Community for Learning, I became more interested in learning about nature and the environment. It felt like I was reconnecting with something I was close to when I was a child. Currently, I am part of the Traidhos Three-Generation Barge Program, and I am excited to learn more and share my knowledge with the new generation for a sustainable future for our world.
