Great trips to Chiang Mai start here.

Hey! My name is Tee, and I'm from Philly, but at this point, my wanderlust has taken me all over the world. I spent time studying in Japan, and I lived in London for a while. Right now, I live in Chiang Mai, Thailand, where I've been for the past five or six years. I have been lucky to visit over 30 countries since I began traveling at 18 years old. I've got some solid tips for solo travelers, budget travelers, lady travelers, Black travelers, and the LGBTQ+ fam. I'm here to make traveling feel accessible and rewarding for everyone, no matter where you come from! If you need tips for Southeast Asia, Asia, or the Eastern Seabord of the USA, I'm your girl. And if you still don't believe me hit me up on IG @traveling.tee and see all I've done so that I can bring you the best advice I possibly can!

Hi! I'm Petra! I’m Thai, born and raised. My business is based in the US, but I call Thailand and South Korea my homes. From my years living in Thailand and my annual 2-month-long visits, I'm especially knowledgeable and up-to-date about Thailand, its trends, and its culture. What are the coolest things to see and do (not necessarily the most touristy ones!), where are the best places to find authentic food (places that say "authentic" are out of the question), and which hotels have the best service... I can give you all these insider-level tips! I've lived in the US since 2015. As a digital nomad, I don't have a city or state that I'm based in, but I know LA especially well having lived there permanently for 8 years. Another of my expertise is South Korea, Seoul specifically, and Korean culture and history in general. Having grown up learning the language and visiting so often (14 times and counting), I can comfortably count Seoul as my second home. And I can confidently give you the best insider tips to Seoul just as well as Thailand! My travel style is culture-based. I love having deep connections with the local culture and people wherever I visit. So you won't find beach clubs or nightclubs much among my recommendations. Basically, if it is something you can see and experience at home, I'm not recommending it!
