My story
From a local girl to a travel guide creator
I was born and raised in Thailand, and I've always loved showing my beautiful country to friends, family and travellers from around the world.
Over the years I realised that many first-time visitors had the same questions — where to go, how to get around, what to eat, and how to avoid common mistakes.
So I created Thai Travel Tips to share everything I wish I knew on my first trips, combined with local insights that only a Thai can give. My goal is to make Thailand feel easy, accessible and unforgettable for you.
Why I created this guide
To help you experience the real Thailand
I kept seeing first-time visitors feeling overwhelmed by too much information, or ending up at tourist traps instead of the amazing places Thailand has to offer. This guide brings together everything you need — clear, friendly and practical — so you can spend less time worrying and more time enjoying the food, the culture and the people.
