first time in chiang mai 🇹🇭 digital nomad settling, making friends, creative date, night market 🍢

We're arriving in Thailand! 🇹🇭🥳 In today's video: I show you how I "settle" in a new city as a digital nomad 🧳 before taking you along on some "creatives dates" I had with women artists living in Chiang Mai 🎨👩🏻‍🎨 (I really recommend to enter some WhatsApp/Facebook groups to meet new people!) I also had the chance to meet a neighbor in the elevator of my building (just when I was entering with my luggage!!) and he offered to show me a night market the next evening... 🍢🥤🥞 What perfect first days in the city! 🥰

I will post every single day of the trip as daily (silent) vlogs - hope it will help you plan your own trip... or make you feel like you're traveling with me! ☺️

about me: 30-yo, born in France 🇫🇷 raised by Portuguese immigrants parents 👨‍👩‍👧‍👧🇵🇹 I never had the chance to travel when I was younger so, as soon as I managed to save up some money, I took off 🛫 At 19yo, I moved to live and study for a year in Athens, Greece 🇬🇷 At 22, I moved for an internship in Miami, USA 🇺🇸 before getting another opportunity to work and study in Montreal, Canada 🇨🇦 At 24, I did my last master degree semester as an exchanged student in São Paulo, Brazil 🇧🇷 Fell in love with the country, got a job, and been based in Rio de Janeiro ever since. After some personal health issues, I realized life is too short not to explore the world more… I’ve always loved documenting my days (journaling, scrapbooking) and knowing the next months would be full of travels, I thought, why not vlog it? I’m sure future-me will be very happy to look back at these videos! Hope you do too ☺️
