Chiang Mai
Thailand Wow Guest House: The only hostel I will stay at in Chiang Mai. Kai the hostel manager is so kind and sweet and he really gives his backpackers 110%
There are cheap red tuk tuk’s that will take you all across the city for a fair price
Inside of the moat is the older stuff but once you go outside the moat especially to the West you will find a more upscale area with all the digital nomads.
Pai
I stayed at Pai Circus Hostel which I would do again only if I stayed in one of the private bungalows.
If you get motion sick easy then you have to fly into the airport because the road is not a Joke.
You pretty much have to either rent a bike or ride on the back of one to see all the beautiful sights and nature in the area.
