Rentals in Chiang Rai and Mae Hong Son

Featured Replies

Hello fellow Thaiforumers,

 

I traveled to northern Thailand for the first time last year - and I absolutely loved it!

 

I was thinking of going back there to focus on a few writing / editing projects I've had on the back-burner.  My questions are as follows:

 

- Is it possible to rent out a decent / though not too flashy apartment in Mae Hong Son or Chiang Rai?

- How much would an apartment cost to rent in this neck of the woods?

- Requirements would need to be - clean, electricity, fridge, basic furniture and reliable wifi.

- And, would I be able to buy a decent motorbike - say, 400cc?  I have an open motorbike license from Australia.

 

Any advice for going digital nomad (outside of CM, that is) would be appreciated.

If I were you I would rent a big bike in Chiang Mai (Many places on east side of moat)... for a month and then go live in Pai... You can find nice places for a month on AirBnB... Pai is a nice mix of countryside with close proximity to western resources and nomads such as yourself...

I wasn't too keen on Pai..  I enjoy local communities a little more than the expat pub/drug/nightclub thing, though I'm not adverse to mingling with the expats every so often.

 

I like the idea of the bike rental.  Any idea how much one would cost for a month?

But if you use Chiang Rai as a base

there is so much to see up that part of the world

I know a few people who live up there

I have been many times to visit the many places

Why a 400 cc ? .It will cost a lot .You can rent a Honda PCX150 cc for around B4000 a month .
