This is a tour of the temples in Chaing Rai (Including The White Temple). I did not like the black museum/temple but it might be some peoples jam. It is meant to be a representation of Hell vs the White Temple being heaven. This is a great tour! The ...

Chiang Mai Hostel! I had several friends say this was their favorite hostel in Thailand and one friend that had endless stories and only amazing things to say after staying for 2 whole weeks!
The Islander Hostel - Chiang Mai

This is a great hostel in Phuket! Something to note is that it does lean more toward the party hostel end of things but people said they are still able to get a good nights sleep here. First of 3 hostels on this list becasue Phuket is so big. (This i...

Amazing Hostel in South Phuket! It is pretty out of the way from old town and most activities. Plus if you are looking for luxury this wont be your exact jam, think camping. However the property is stunning, there are small beaches nearby, and the re...

Old Town Phuket Hostel! This place has an incredible location and wonderful staff. (This is Old Town where you walk around and by Big Buhdda Statue) Phuket Hostel 3 of 3 becasue Phuket area is big.
Baan Baan Hostel

Koh Samui Hostel. This is a party hostel (as are the majority of hostels on the islands). This hostel is really social during tourist season and slow on off season as usual. It is one of the top 2 hostels on this island and is the cheaper option whil...

Koh Tao Hostel. Amazing Place! A few things to note is that there are quite a bit of stairs to get to the hostel so you have to be ok with that and you will need some type of bike or transport because it is a bit out of the way but thats how most pla...

Apps To Download
These are the must have apps to get when traveling Thailand!
ย
MUST HAVE - This App is similar to Uber. Its a great way to get rides around or have food delivered (in some cities). If you ever have a chance you should book a grab bike and ride on the back of a Grab Drivers Motorbike! You can also pay with card w...
Grab: Taxi Ride, Food Delivery 4+ - App Store
ย
This is another ride app but it is typically a cheaper ride than with Grab. It is a good idea to have both downloaded for prices as well as sometimes drivers are only available on one or the other.
Bolt: Request a ride, 24/7
ย
This one might seem obvious but seriously download this app. Not many people speak English and even fewer speak conversational English so this is a lifesaver. You can also take photos of things and have the words translated.
Google Translate on the App Store
Wonderful Transport
This is where I book all my long travel in SE Asia but especially Thailand :)
ย
This is the website I use to do any bus/train/boat travel in all of Asia but especially Thailand! You can book inside the country or even transport between countries! I was recommended it by several locals and travelers. 10/10!
