Ben Fogle: New Lives In The Wild (2013)

S7E3 Thailand

Julien, a French-Canadian, has chosen a life of simplicity in a secluded Buddhist monastery nestled within Thailand's jungle-clad mountains, well beyond the reach of typical maps. Ben discovers the reasons behind this ex-teen student’s decision to abandon the complexities of contemporary living for a more primitive, spiritual lifestyle, and the profound impact this choice has had on his family back home.
