Hate to tell you this but you chose the worst time of year to come. Google “Burning Season Chiang Mai” - I’d recommend sticking to the south of Thailand, particularly the islands, and then come up around April 10 for Songkran. Punspace is the big coworking space, I’d recommend booking a place in Nimman and trying the various cafes there. Kaweh is a good spot if its not too busy.
- eis 11y agoThis is good advice. Mind though that in the south the digital nomad community isn't as strong as it is in Chiang Mai.
- Keats 11y agoDamn, thanks for the advice
- matnewton 11y agoSmall thing - pay attention to that advice, it really aint a pretty time to come.
- WordSkill 11y agoYup, ignore anyone who understates the problem (some prominent voices in the nomad forums are either in denial or have a vested interest), it is absolutely lethal during March and April. I love Chiang Mai but will be leaving on Friday night, probably returning mid-May.
