Hi, I’m JJ! I love Chiang Mai's way of life - a unique balance of beautiful nature, rich culture, and warm community spirit. For me, the city isn’t just a place to live, but a place to connect deeply with traditions and people. I enjoy sharing authentic food experiences, exploring local markets, and visiting homestays where activities bring you closer to everyday life in Northern Thailand. I know the neighborhoods, communities, and markets well, and I’m always inspired by how history and culture are woven into daily living here. With a passion for food, culture, history, and community service, I look forward to helping you discover the authentic side of Chiang Mai in a meaningful and memorable way.
