•  The “dry-stack stone wall” in use at 360° Leti is the traditional method of construction in the area. By incorporating these techniques into the construction of our camp, we’ve helped revive the practice through a few skilled families in the area.

•  We set up a rainwater harvesting project for a widow in one of the villages, which is being replicated with various villagers in the areas we operate.

•  Most of our staff members are local and trained in various fields of hospitality. Also, because we bring the local cultures to you without adulteration, we generate direct income to the villagers without compromising their way of living.

•  This means they do not need to resort to high-volume, high-impact tourism that degrades their environment and traditional lifestyle.
