Chiang Mai is easily one of my favourite places in Thailand.
After spending 6+ months travelling around this country, Chiang Mai was the place I returned a few times and stayed the longest.
Welcome to Thailand!
Culture. Street Food. Beach Paradise.
Thailand is many travellers’ favourite destination, so it’s no surprise that this is one of our favourite parts of the world too. What’s not to love about this slice of paradise? Gentle people, gorgeous beaches, cute villages, cosmopolitan cities and some of the best food you’ll find across the whole world. Adding to that, it’s affordable.
It’s your choice whether you’d like to hang out in the buzzing city of Bangkok, go island hopping in Koh Mook or Thailand’s southern islands, immerse yourself in culture and amazing food in Chiang Mai or just find a cool bungalow by the beach and simply relax.
In fact, Thailand is one of the best digital nomad destinations in the world. Whether you’re looking to live a digital nomad lifestyle on Thailand’s islands of Ko Samui or Ko Pha-Ngan or to northern Thailand’s popular cities of Chiang Mai or Chiang Rai to live and work remotely, Thailand ticks all the boxes!
