Practical training at eco-resort for Swedish tourism students

“We came here as volunteers for practical training. We have had four wonderful weeks (Feb 2010) at the Libong Nature Beach Resort It is with broken hearts that we now must say Goodbye! Thank you for this experience! We will never forget you!”

Emma Skyllberg & Linn Jonsson (Eighteen year old high school students) from Nature and Guide School in Alvadalen , Sweden
