I’ve lived in Chiang Mai for 37 years
I speak English and some French, German
I am a tourist guide
I’m Joe, a local host who deeply appreciates the spiritual and cultural richness of Chiang Mai. I love guiding visitors through the serene forest temples and sharing the traditions of Thai culture, especially the meaningful process of making merit in Buddhism. Whether exploring Chiang Mai, Chiang Rai, or Pai, I’m passionate about helping you experience the natural beauty and cultural depth of northern Thailand. From outdoor adventures in national parks to quiet moments in sacred spaces, I’m here to offer thoughtful, authentic insights into the heart of this incredible region.
