Hope, Health and Happiness in the Heart of Kalim

Phuket’s Kalim region sits over a small hill to the immediate north of Patong, the world-famous epicentre of hedonism and decadence on Phuket island. Although it is so close to the immense cashflow of Patong’s buzzing cash-registers, Kalim is a rather down-at-heel suburb populated by many impoverished families…. fisherfolk, odd-jobbers and the unemployed.
