About Me

CURRENT MISSION

Nature. Architecture. Culture.

ABOUT ME

We are Taj and Chom, both are architects, Chom also writes travel articles as a hobby. We don't smoke. Love taking photograph and cooking. If we have time, we sketch , paint and draw while traveling as well.

We have a small design office&cafe in the Phuket old town. Good as a base to explore the historical area and Sunday Walking Street, even though you can't sleep there.

Why I’m on Couchsurfing

Met a girl from Serbia in Beijing in 2007, she told us about this site. As old school travellers, we couldn't help but get hooked by the idea.
