Chin
Hello! My name is Chin and I'm an Ubon Ratchathani native and Bangkokian of ten years. I'm an ‘avid cook’ — all my free time is occupied by studying and experimenting with Thai cuisine. I previously worked as an English teacher, and before that, I learned all about Thai food and wild plants and herbs from her mother and grandmother in the northeast Thai countryside. Above all else, I am very devoted to preserving traditional Thai culture.
My goal is to preserve and share Thai culture and cuisine by offering unforgettable experiences to anyone and everyone. I'm committed to environmental and social responsibility, a philosophy I've actually lived over many years in Southeast Asia. My experiences emphasize tasting and learning about local foods, exploring little known but fascinating places and interacting with local people. I'm an avid traveler, and I strive to fuse a sense of adventure, spontaneity and fun into the experiences we offer while ensuring that you - and the locals - are respected in the way that every human deserves.
