I built this home for the family that look after me.
With my savings and the pension I was able to build this house in Chiang Mai for about $80,00 Australian.
My room is the garage where I can have my bed, computers, tools and filming gear to make tutorial art videos.
Saloong and her daughter Nook bring my meals and care for me – a fare exchange for me supporting them financially.
