Into the book
I am convinced that there is no city with a lower barrier to entry than Chiang Mai for my first month of living.
However, since it is a long-term trip, not a short-term trip, 'living for a month without preparation' can easily lead to 'living for a month in despair'.
When you feel lost, you become impatient, and when you are impatient, you make mistakes and become disappointed.
To make travel as comfortable as everyday life, without fear or rush, a certain amount of preparation is essential.
--- From the "Prologue"
With its low cost of living and rent, warm climate, and diverse leisure environment, Chiang Mai attracts many middle-aged and older people who plan to live there after retirement or frequently visit for long-term vacations by setting up a second home.
You can experience whether it is a suitable place for you to live after retirement by staying for a long period of time, such as for a month.
--- From "Why is it popular as a one-month stay destination?"
The most important thing in preparing to live for a month is finding accommodation.
It may sound like a no-brainer, but if you go there and ask, you can find everything.
There are plenty of houses and rooms for travelers.
Don't worry too much, even if you just meet one real estate agent, they will show you a long list of vacant rooms, and if you see a place you like on the street, you can just pop in and ask the management office if there are any vacancies and sign a contract right away.
--- From "Finding Accommodation"
Some of the street food restaurants on the streets of Chiang Mai don't have names.
Even if there is a sign, they often just list the main menu items.
So, noodle restaurants are often simply written as 'Kuaitiau' or 'Khao Soi', and there are many restaurants whose names on Google Maps are different from their signboard names.
The restaurants in Chiang Mai introduced on the following page are based on their names on Google Maps. They also include QR codes that will show you the restaurant's location on Google Maps when you scan them with your phone's camera. Use this as a reference when looking for a restaurant.
--- From "Where should I go for delicious food in Chiang Mai?"
Even with children, you can have a fulfilling and enjoyable month in Chiang Mai.
Several companies in Chiang Mai offer a variety of educational and experiential programs for children.
The majority of operators and experts are familiar with Koreans, and the cost is low compared to the cost of living in Korea.

Publisher's Review
Chiang Mai, a city where I can feel at ease whenever I go.
Chiang Mai, Thailand's second largest city, where urban conveniences and expansive nature coexist, is always loved by travelers from around the world as the perfect place to spend a month.
Low prices, a mild climate, and stable public safety are guaranteed, but there's also plenty to enjoy, including delicious food, beautiful temples, vibrant markets, and charming small towns nearby.
It's also a good idea to improve your skills by learning hobbies like exercise, cooking, and even foreign languages.
It's a place where you can feel fulfilled even if you just do nothing and laze around in a pretty cafe, in keeping with Chiang Mai's uniquely laid-back atmosphere.
Living for a month is different from a short-term trip; it requires careful preparation.
However, no matter how easy the travel difficulty is in Chiang Mai, or how experienced a traveler is, living there for a month is impossible without thorough preparation.
Because in order to enjoy a month to the fullest, you need a ‘daily routine’ for that month.
《I'll be back after a bit of rest - A guide to living in Chiang Mai for a month》 is the answer to countless questions and concerns raised by those who want to live in Chiang Mai for a month.
Yoo Seung-hye, a YouTuber known as Pig Boss who became famous for her Chiang Mai videos and author of many travel books, composed the content of this book based on the various curiosities of people who know nothing about Chiang Mai, people who are planning to stay there for a month, and people who have prepared for the trip but feel somewhat lost.
A guide packed with information that leaves nothing to be desired.
Part 1, “From Departure to Arrival, Discover the Charms of Chiang Mai,” systematically organizes the basic and essential information you need to know and prepare before going to Chiang Mai.
Tips for finding a home, which is especially nerve-wracking, are enough to relieve your anxiety.
For prospective travelers who are worried about what to do to spend a long month, Part 2, “Living for a Month: What to Do Today?” is a good alternative.
From traditional tourist attractions like temples, markets, and museums to activities like hiking, hot springs, walking, and massage, sports like swimming, yoga, and golf, and cultural activities like live bars, clubs, and performances, there's no time to get bored even if you visit just one a day.
Part 3, “A privilege for long-term travelers, suburban travel,” provides the fun of a trip within a trip, a suburban trip as a Chiang Mai resident.
From half-day picnics to two-night, three-day trips, detailed itineraries are provided to enrich your month-long stay.
In Thailand, a country famous for its food, you can't miss out on a food tour.
Part 4, “Chiang Mai’s Colorful Food,” provides step-by-step information on the basics of Thai food, while the author guides you to Chiang Mai’s best restaurants, carefully selected by region, using QR codes.
At the back of this book is a program for young companions.
Because Chiang Mai is a warm and welcoming place where families can enjoy themselves.
Now, it's your turn to read as you head to Chiang Mai.
Whether you're a 20-something yearning to spend your sparkling youth abroad, a middle-aged person on a long-awaited vacation, a parent wanting to create special memories for their children, or an adult in their 60s or older dreaming of a long-term trip after retirement, this book will help you fully enjoy the great gift of "Living in Chiang Mai for a Month."
Because Chiang Mai always welcomes us all.
