Phuket is the name of the town and also the region ( province ) of an island in the south of Thailand
Although in the early last century it was mainly a tin mining region ( and also of cours fishing harbour ) it has changed gradually over the last years to become a booming tourist destination .
About 6.5 million visitors each year visit the island known for his beaches , national parks , waterfalls and surrouniding islands
You can just visit and discover the region on www.phuketcity.org .
The many tourists from all over the world raised also intrest with the local people to improved knowledge of other languages .
That is why we decided to start Polyglot meetings in Phuket ,to give the people the opportunity to practise their language skills in a relaxed atmosphere
See you all soon
