Internships at Baan Womanifesto

Internship at Baan Womanifesto is an experience that inspires me to live on. I get to know people from different backgrounds, learning from them, exploring new perspectives and exchanging stories. It is a place where everyday life and creativity flow naturally, and being there made me understand not only why this community has endured for so long but also what baan or a true home means in Baan Womanifesto.

My internship at Baan Womanifesto was easy to understand and offered a variety of techniques. My favorite technique was the bookbinding technique. It allowed me to customize the size of my notebooks, and I could even use it to generate additional income. What impressed me most was the peaceful atmosphere and environment. I was also impressed by the activities I did at school and at the studio. The kids were all so lovely. Finally, I'd like to thank so much for teaching me new experiences and techniques. I love you and miss you so much. I'll definitely visit you when I have the chance.

During my internship at Baan Womanifesto, I found each technique easy to understand. My personal favorite was the method of dyeing paper with a versatile dye called sedge dye. This created patterns for book covers, which was completely new to me and I thoroughly enjoyed doing it. Another technique was the rust-dyeing of fabric, which I think exceeded my expectations. The results were beautiful. I found the work environment to be excellent, shady, and everyone was lovely. Unfortunately, we left too early, could not join the trip to visit various places, I really wanted to go. Finally, I'd like to thank you so much for the experience during my internship, and I miss all of dogs so much. If I ever have the chance to visit, I'll definitely visit Baan Womanifesto.
