So, you are planning your pilgrimage to Thailand. You have your flight booked. You have your Agoda reservations. And you have a mental image of sitting in a lounge in Chiang Mai, enjoying a premium Sativa while watching the world go by. But if your last trip was in 2023, you might be in for […]
It is 11:00 PM. You have just finished a delicious dinner of Khao Soi. You are riding your rented Honda Click scooter back to your hotel near the Night Bazaar. The air is cool, the vibe is good. Then, you turn a corner, and you see them. Barricades. Bright orange cones. A group of men […]
You have booked your flight. You have watched the TikToks of people smoking joints on the beaches of Phuket and the mountains of Chiang Mai. You have read that cannabis is legal in Thailand.

It usually starts with good intentions. You meet some friends at your hostel. You head to the North Gate Jazz Co-Op for a few beers. The music is good, the air is warm, and the vibe is electric. Then, someone says the magic words: “Let’s go to Zoe.” Zoe in Yellow. If you have spent […]
There is a secret side to Chiang Mai that many tourists never see. If you wake up at 10:00 AM, you wake up to the heat. The sun is already blazing, the motorbikes are roaring, and the city is in full swing. But if you wake up at 6:00 AM, you step into a different […]
