Well, we live here in Bangkok. Have been for the past year as Sam undertakes his masters here. We often take trips from this base to other SEA countries every other month for the visa runs that Becca needs to do. So, no constant travelling yet, that's the dream. What are your plans?
Following you too :)
I love traveling from a base. Currently debating if I should make Chiang Mai my base, or leave and go to Vietnam and other countries and then come back in October...
Some said it's not good to be here from now until October but I don't really know @travelling-two!
We have heard that there is quite a few digital nomads living in Chiang Mai due to its scene (cafes, bars and co-working spaces as well as the cultural side), closeness to the borders of Laos or Burma (quick visa run) and coolness of the weather compared to the rest of the country. It seems like a logical base, however a base should feel like a place where you could stay. Our recommendation is to explore more of this region and then see how you feel once you become more accustomed. We plan to go to Chiang Mai for Songkran (Thai New Year/water festival) in April for 4-5 days. We'll see if you are there.
Now, it's coming up to the summer period (mid-Feb to end of May) and then the rainy season until October. That's probably why some said it's not good to be there.
Weight up your options and most of the time, you will know what to do @nomadicsoul ;)
thanks hehe definitely trying to figure it out
