Patty Kothongcharoen

Personal Bio

Hello beautiful sunshines, My name is Patty. I come from Bangkok, Thailand.

I have been living in Australia for 4 years. I am currently working FIFO in Pilbara, Western Australia. In my time off, I like to go camping and travel around WA and take lots and lots of picture. I love photography, peaceful and nature. I feel like they heal my mind ,body and soul. This is why I fall in love with the warmth of the sun, the cold of the wind, the sound of the rain and the green of the tree.

Moreover, I love learning. I do believe that we still keep learning everyday even though we have finished school. I want to get my hand on dirt and experience Australian farming and agriculture and share that knowledge to other people.

My dream is to have my farm with a little chalet near the lake or river where I can grow many flowers, fruits and vegetables and share them to others or serve them on the table.

Why I joined WWOOF

I would like to experience Australian farm life. Growing up in a flower shop back home allowed me to get involved with Thai- tropical agriculture.

My grand parents used to have a farm where they grown mango, guava, tamarind and orchid. Coming over to Australia for long time makes me miss my childhood. This is one reason why I would like to join WWOOF because I can bring back my childhood and to learn Western agriculture.

Secondly, My passion in farming is to be able to see seeds that I grow by my hands go to plant and fruit and I can cook them instead of buying from supermarket. That will make me feel so proud to see what I have done fruitfully.

Lastly, I personally appreciate what nature has given us and how can I reserve them to the next generation.
