Thailand Travel Guides

Night markets, jungle mountains, and finding your rhythm abroad

Thailand is where my nomad life really began — Chiang Mai was my first long-term base, and I’ve since explored Bangkok’s neighborhoods, the limestone karsts of Krabi and Railay Beach, and the quieter side of islands like Koh Phangan and Koh Samui. These guides cover the practical side of living and traveling here, from visa runs to the best pad thai stalls.

More about Thailand

North and south

Thailand splits neatly into a mountainous north and an island south, and the guides here lean toward the quieter end of both.

Staying longer

Thailand is one of the easier countries to settle into for a month or more. The nomad guide covers visas, costs and where the infrastructure actually is, and two Chiang Dao stays are reviewed in detail: Dara Dao and MayamYay riverside homestay.
