  • Welcome to an exhilarating journey through Thailand's northern gem, Chiang Rai, spread across four captivating episodes. In this episode, we delve deep into the heart of Chiang Rai's enchanting countryside, immersing ourselves in the breathtaking landscapes, majestic mountains, and unique accommodations that make this region a traveler's paradise.
    As our adventure begins, you'll be transported to the lush, rolling hills of Chiang Rai's countryside. With every turn, you'll witness the vibrant patchwork of rice paddies, orchards, and the ever-smiling locals whose warmth and hospitality define this region.
    But what I like the most are the spectacular mountains that dominate Chiang Rai's horizon. Join us as we explore the rugged terrain and discover the hidden gems nestled in their folds, from serene hill tribe villages and lush forests.
    Don't miss a moment of this mesmerizing journey through Chiang Rai's countryside, mountains, and accommodations, and let your wanderlust come alive as we uncover the hidden treasures of this remarkable northern province.

    We can 100% agree with what you say about Thailand feeling like home. It's a safe haven and always feels so welcoming.
    Coming from Belgium ourselves in a similar situation and as fellow content creators traveling around Southeast Asia we decided to stick around here for a while and enjoy Chiang Rai's beauty and wonderful people.
    Lovely to see you back in Thailand, Chai. Can't wait to see where your adventures will take you!
    Let us know if you're still around, we can always grab a Thai coffee and share some stories/experiences 😉

    What a beautiful part of the world there, those views. that accommodation pretty basic but as long as the bugs stay out, the bed is comfortable and there's a hot shower then that's good enough and pretty much what is available off the beaten track once you go rural, away from the city life. That roof top breakfast area and all that fruit. Lovely way to start the day. Loved the inclusion of the interview and local information being offered. Excellent use of a mixture of camera and drone work A perfect mix moving forward with this adventure. Loved it guys. 🤩

    This was one of my favorites for sure. There's nothing like the North of Thailand, just a truly special place. You guys seemed really comfortable in this one, too. The cafe, the little place you stayed, the restaurant, all of it just looked great. Props to both of you. I remember you talking about going to Indonesia when were drinking in that Chiang Mai bar during COVID times with Naked in Thailand. Cool to see you're getting to explore you're roots now. Anyway, have a good one guys. hope all is well
