About Me

I'm a musician from Thailand. I teach music in local schools and perform at different venues where I live in Northern Thailand.

I want people to experience real Thai culture, I can arrange for you to stay at a temple, a school or my sister's house. This will be a unique couchsurfing experience for you!

Wat Doi Thep Nimit - this is a larger temple with 16 monks and 1 Nun living there. The monks here practice prayer and meditation everyday. You can stay here and learn about meditation and the Buddhist way of life. If you want to stay at this temple there are some rules to follow - please read *MY HOME* for more information.

Wat Mueang Klang - TBC

Hilltribe school - the school is in a beautiful location and the children come from the local village or over the border from Myanmar. They know very little English and it would be really good if you could teach them for a couple of hours a day while you stay here.

My sister's house - if you want a more traditional couchsurfing experience you are very welcome to stay with my sister. She only speaks a little English but you can learn Thai with her. She practices meditation everyday and can help you with this.
