Andaman Discoveries sends a big thanks to Bill Tuffin, who joined us as a consultant for two weeks. Bill first arrived in the Southeast Asia as a United States Peace Corps volunteer in the mid-1980s, and quickly developed a passion for Southeast Asia. Subsequently, Bill was the innovator behind the first eco-lodge is Laos, and made been deeply involved in responsible tourism development. “When I first saw Andaman Discoveries online, I followed its development with interest and wanted to learn more about the AD’s work in the North Andaman Region. I finally got a chance to work with the team this past month,” said Bill.

Bill shared his extensive experience with us during his two-week visit. In addition to expertly facilitating our staff retreat, he offered his thoughts and feedback on everything from our business model to our promotional materials. “It was a pleasure to work with the AD team. They are highly motivated and dedicated to the work that they are doing.”

Bill has been a consultant for the recognized Ecotourism Laos website and was instrumental to the success of the Akha Experience and Green Discovery Laos. For more information about Bill, or to contact him directly, please visit his website.

Thank you for joining us Bill! We hope to see you again soon.
