3 min read
Thailand has launched a new campaign aiming to capture a large slice of the growing digital nomad traveler market.
The ‘LOCO(AL) Working Space’ campaign invites remote workers to stay and immerse in authentic Thai communities while staying connected.
The campaign is supported by the Tourism Authority of Thailand, which says the initiative transforms traditional work environments by offering unique ‘SPACE TONES’ for seamless and mindful remote working.
The campaign showcases Chiang Mai, one of Southeast Asia’s top digital nomad destinations, Phuket and Bangkok.
The curated environments will foster productivity, inspiration, and well-being, it says.
Chiang Mai: Valley Space
In Chiang Mai, remote workers get a harmonious blend of tradition and modern amenities. Beyond the city’s vibrant co-working spaces and artisan markets, remote workers can explore peaceful mountain communities such as:
Mae Klang Luang: a serene village nestled in the Doi Inthanon National Park, it offers a peaceful retreat where visitors can immerse themselves in the simplicity of rural Thai life. The Karen tribe village is famous for its lush rice fields and vibrant flower gardens.
Mae Mae: is known for its peaceful vibe and lush green hills, immersive eco-tourism experiences and local traditions
Mae Sa Noi: is noted for its serene waterfalls and forest trails, as well as local elephant experiences. Visitors can see elephants bathing in the Mae Sa Noi stream.
Chiang Mai co-working spaces like Alt ChiangMai and Alt PingRiver provide fully furnished accommodations and shared amenities.
Bangkok: Classic Space
Trok Dilokchan is a cultural alleyway that blends heritage and contemporary lifestyles. Here, digital nomads in Bangkok can explore century-old architecture, enjoy coffee in restored shophouses, and discover co-working spaces filled with character.
Phuket: Island Space
For digital nomads who crave beach views and a laid-back island vibe.
Ko Lon: Ko Lon has a relaxed beach vibe with friendly locals, and stunning coral reefs, and fresh seafood. Ko Lon offers the perfect balance of productive work and a relaxed island escape.
Ko Naka Yai: just a 15-minute boat ride off the east coast from Phuket, it is known for its secluded location. The island’s tiny size has no crowds or traffic to slow you down.
In Phuket Old Town, colonial architecture meets trendy cafés and art-filled streets, providing remote workers with a colorful, creative space to be based.
The campaign is anchored in the ‘5 Must Do in Thailand’ experience pillars, encouraging digital nomads to not only work remotely but to live locally. From tasting regional dishes and trying age-old crafts to buying community-made goods, exploring nature, and seeking inner peace.
