Is Digital Detox Asia (DDA) right for me? admin 2017-09-29T22:17:33+00:00

Is Digital Detox Asia (DDA) right for me?

DDA is a place for anyone who spends a significant amount of time using digital technology and recognizes that taking a 48-hour break would be in some way beneficial or at least a good challenge. This is most of us these days! Rest assured, you’ll be staying at a tranquil retreat in Khao Yai National Park. Imagine beautiful, spacious and comfortable rooms, delicious and nutritious food, and spending your time enjoying lots of awesome “real world” activities; plus, you share the experience and adventure with a group of people just like you.

Don’t worry, humans have been device-free for thousands of years! We will provide you with an emergency contact phone number and ‘Hiatus Status’ images to upload to your social media platforms. Everyone else on retreat will be sharing the same ‘away from home’ experience.

One of the first things we do upon leaving Bangkok is to request all phones and computers be placed in our care.

We will give you our emergency contact number to pass on to your friends and family members in case they need to get in contact with you during the 48-hour digital detox.
