The Udon Thani - Northeast Thailand region
Green Gecko is neither a typical rental villa nor a resort, but combines elements of both, blending the privacy and space of the former with the Thai hospitality of the latter. Guests may either enjoy the villa in complete privacy, or allow themselves to be integrated fully into the local ways of life by the local villagers who run the property, and are the best placed to explain time-honoured traditions and details of the local culture, and to accompany visitors to hard-to-find local areas of beauty or historical interest.
Just some of the activities that highlight “Thainess” at the villa include:
Learning to identify the ingredients of, and then how to prepare, traditional Thai dishes, with an emphasis on Northeastern, or Isaan, cuisine.
Trying your hand in the rice fields, either at ploughing or harvesting rice, and learning about the rice growing cycle .
Excursions by boat through the lotus flowers at the local wetlands
Muay Thai (Thai boxing) lessons, which may be arranged with a former professional boxer
Indulging in a traditional Thai massage - either in the local village or in the comfort of Green Gecko itself.
Cycle trips around the countryside on the villa’s bicycles, to soak up the rhythms of these typical rural villages
Attending local festivals and traditional rites – whether these are typical holidays such as Loy Krathong or Songkran, or private weddings or initiation rites.
Attending a morlam music festival to witness this age-old musical tradition with its particular dancing style
Visiting the museum at Ban Chiang, and the village itself to see traditional pottery being crafted.
Visiting the local village temples, or awaking early to participate in morning alms giving.
Visiting a local school - and encouraging the children to practice their English skills.
Visiting local places of interest such as the local waterfalls (in season), Phu Phrabat Park with its prehistoric cave paintings, Phu Foilom park, the silk and cotton weavers of Nha Ka village, the cobra farmers of Koke Sanga, or the border town of Nong Khai on the Mekong river.
