自我介绍

Hi I am Supinda! Welcome to our beach house! I discovered this beach 30 years ago when Phuket was a gentle island as near to a paradise as anyone could have imagined.I knew right away that this is the place where I wanted to build a holiday home for my 2 children. We were all living in London at the time.I am happy to say that although Phuket has changed, up to now, once you drive past the long Rawai beach, our house and our area has managed to retain most of the original near-paradise state, not too far from the idyllic tranquility of the past (keep our fingers crossed!). When we built this house, there was no electricity and the children had to learn to take the oil lamp out to clean before sun-set everyday. We can now enjoy the best of both worlds for a while, hoping that it will be for a long time. I am the founder of Childline Thailand Foundation which is a freephone helpline for children in distress, so the villa also served as the get-together place for Non-Government Organizations who stormed into Phuket in the aftermath of the Tsunami in 2004 when total strangers from all over the world were thrown together to help people in any way they could. The wave did not come up to our house and nothing happened to our place. We only learned later that there is a big drop of 28 meters deep in the sea in front of our house where the water receded below. The next day my daughter and I just went out to help every one who needed help and we spent many months working with NGO's from all over the world, many of them who have become life-long friends. My daughter lives in London with her wonderful husband and 2 lovely children. They visit me in Thailand about twice a year. My son is a Forest Monk at Wat Pa Na Na Chat who spends his time in the forest and in Ubon. He kindly and patiently guided me towards meditation and it is now time for me to take it to another level. I have spent many peaceful days in meditation in this house and now aspire to further my meditation in Burma at Pa-Auk Tawya Meditation Center in Mawlumyine, where people come from many countries in the world to receive formal instruction in meditation. I hope that our villa will be able to welcome you and provide you with wonderful holidays like it did for us. Supinda
