Meet your Local Friends

Say hello to John, Anne, and Mali, your awesome local buddies in the Land of Smiles—Thailand! They’re here to help you conquer basic Thai and make your adventure or move as smooth as sipping a refreshing coconut smoothie.

Meet John,

A friendly, cheerful Englishman who swapped rainy days for Thailand’s sunny skies three years ago. Now thriving in Bangkok, he works for a local company and loves diving into the city’s vibrant culture. With his friendly nature and insider knowledge, John is ready to share all the tips and tricks he’s picked up.

Then there’s Anne,

A spirited French woman who’s new to Bangkok and currently working as a teacher at an international school. As luck would have it, she shares a floor in her condo with John, and the two quickly become fast friends.

Anne is eager to explore the city’s lively streets, connect with its people, and soak up all the culture Thailand has to offer. While she loves spicy food, she’s still adjusting to the tropical heat. Her favorite Thai phrase is “pèt nít-nòi”—“a little spicy, please.”

Last but not least, please meet Mali,

"Mali" literally means “Jasmine” in Thai. She is a local Thai who grew up in Bangkok. She holds great Thai values of gratitude. thoughtfulness, and respect while exploring and embracing new cultures and people.

She currently works in an international company in Bangkok, where she met John. She has helped John explore Thailand and taught him some basic Thai during lunchtime. @John, you’re welcome! 😉
