We will be welcoming Dr. Christopher Karki, PhD scholar in Horticulture and Apiculture. He if the founder of Nature's Glory Beekeeping and Honey Mission. His talk will be followed by Tim Van Es, author of the book The Chaiwallah.

Dr Karki ventured into beekeeping in 1996 starting with 50 colonies, but as he says, it didn’t quite take off as he had hoped. However, he was determined to pursue his passion. He embarked on a journey to Canada to attend university; eventually completing his PhD.

He joined a research group, delving deeper into the world of beekeeping where he dedicated four years to honing his skills and expertise.  He now boasts that he has 32 thriving bee colonies. Further, through dedication and perseverance, they have elevated their honey production to new heights, crafting some of the finest honey available today.

He is now eager to expand his beekeeping empire even further by bringing his passion to Thailand.

He is establishing his business, Nature’s Glory Thailand Co., Ltd., with a goal to make Thai honey a prominent product on the global market. He believes that by harnessing the natural beauty and resources of Thailand, he can create a product that not only delights consumers worldwide but also uplifts the livelihoods of Thai farmers, ensuring stability and sustainability for generations to come.


Tim Van Es wrote The Chaiwallah: An inspiring, heartfelt story of resilience, courage, and purpose in the streets of Mumbai.  His story is about three neighbors in the heart of bustling Mumbai; each caught in their own struggles and find unexpected solace from a new street vendor, whose quiet wisdom and selfless acts guide them toward paths they never imagined.

Tim van Es draws his inspiration from the nuances of everyday life, vibrant cultures, and his personal journey.

Born in the Netherlands, he worked and lived across the Asia Pacific the last two decades. He began writing this, his debut novel, in Mumbai, India, where his twin sons were born.
