Discover Thailand with our insider tips
Welcome! We’re so glad you’ve found us. We’re Su and Johan, and we’re delighted you’re here.
How it all began
Imagine this: you step off the plane and are immediately greeted by the vibrant energy, the smells of street food and the warm chaos of Bangkok. We first experienced that feeling years ago, and we’ve never really left since. Thailand has seen us grow, change and has surprised us time and time again.
By now, we know the country like the back of our hand. We’ve explored the well-trodden tourist trails, but above all we’ve discovered the hidden lanes that you won’t find in any standard travel guide.
Why we’re still in love with Thailand (after 14 years!)
After 14 years of travelling around Thailand, people often ask us: “Don’t you ever get tired of Thailand?” Our answer is always: no.
For us, Thailand isn’t just a country you simply ‘tick off’ a bucket list; it’s a place that’s constantly reinventing itself. What is it that still moves us after all these years?
- The unique contrast: Ultra-modern skyscrapers versus the timeless traditions of Bangkok’s narrow side streets.
- The diversity: From the stunning, mountainous north of Thailand to the idyllic beaches and islands in the south.
- The soul of the country: Despite its rapid growth, Thailand’s energy remains captivating and the soul of the country, fortunately, remains unchanged.
