Yesterday, half of our team met up with our Yarders in Taipei :))

Some of you showed up with your friends and partners, which made it even more special.

One guest had stayed with us since our very first year in Bangkok, and came back to visit with snacks, so sweet!!

We spent the evening sharing food, snacks, and stories, talking from 5 to 8 without even noticing time passing 😅

There was also a really lovely moment where some of you met for the first time here and instantly became friends, already planning future trips to Thailand together.

It was such a simple but heartwarming kind of day :))!

Thank you so much for coming to see us, see you next time with Som & Som in Berlin on August 29

Nurturing the creative spirit in a peaceful space

Creativity is the third pillar of happiness that we celebrate at The Yard. We have found that when people are given a space that feels like home, new ideas begin to flow naturally. From our air-conditioned common rooms in Ari, Bangkok, to the quiet corners of The Yard Chiang Mai, we see creativity in many forms every day. It isn't just about art; it’s about the fresh perspectives gained when you finally have the quiet to think.

Many of our guests are digital nomads or creators who find their focus in our dedicated work areas. Whether you are working on a new project in the cool AC or sketching in our garden in Northern Thailand, the environment is designed to support your flow. We believe that a creative spirit thrives when it is surrounded by nature and a community that respects your need for deep work and inspiration.

To everyone who's stayed at The Yard Hostel Bangkok & The Yard Hostel Chiang Mai, can you CONFIRM?

Do we both do the full 5-minute check-in speech?
Then you say "yeah, yeah, got it" and then ask again 10 minutes later?

Do we both still answer with a smile every single time?
..yeah. We're the same. 😂

Tag someone who stayed at both places, and let's settle this once and for all 👇

(We're not complaining. We love you. Ask us again tomorrow. We'll tell you again.

Normal day at The Yard… until we got a mission from “Romain”!

He was looking for a “Khaen”, a traditional Thai bamboo mouth organ from the Northeast.
Which explains why it was sooo hard to find in Chiang Mai 😂

Our team tried to help… but no luck 😓

And then he came back with one!
Mission complete ✨ (he found it himself!)

Even though we couldn’t help in the end,
we’re really happy to be a small part of his journey

Yesterday we had a little picnic with our guests here in Korea 🇰🇷

We honestly didn’t expect it to turn out this lovely, it was our first time doing something like this

Both us and you guys brought food, snacks, and beers to share, and we just sat, chatted, and hung out like we were back in Thailand

Thank you so much for coming and making our day!!

See you again next trip in Taiwan on 3rd of May!!

Finding peace by letting go of ambition

The second rule of happiness we embrace at The Yard is the freedom from ambition. We believe that travel should be a time to escape the pressure of always needing to be "more" or "better." Whether you are visiting The Yard Bangkok or our home in Northern Thailand, we invite you to simply be yourself. There is no social pressure here, no forced activities, and no need to dress to impress, just a quiet space where you can exist as you are.

Some of our guests spend their entire day reading a book on a beanbag or just watching the sky from the garden. We provide the space, but you decide the pace. By stepping away from the need to compete or achieve, you create room for true relaxation. At The Yard Chiang Mai and Bangkok, we keep things simple and honest, allowing you to find joy in the smallest, most authentic moments of your journey.

Catch Us If You Can: Bangkok or Chiang Mai?

It has been a year and a half since we started The Yard Chiangmai, and Som and I have been traveling non-stop! It’s become a bit of a "secret mission" for our friends and guests to track us down.

Recently, someone went on an epic quest to find us: traveling from Bangkok → Chiang Mai → and back to Bangkok, only to finally catch me in Bangkok just one day before I headed back to Chiang Mai! (We made it just in time! Haha).

To make it easier for you to plan your visit and "catch" us, here is our current routine:

🗓 Our Monthly Routine

- My Schedule: I split my time 50/50, usually 10 days in Bangkok followed by 10 days in Chiang Mai.
- Som’s Schedule: She’s a bit busier! Besides our main spots, she manages her own guesthouse located right between Bangkok and Koh Tao.

👋 We’d Love to Meet You!

We are always so touched when people go out of their way to see us. Whether you are in the city or up north, we truly want to say hello!

Quick Tip: If you're planning a trip to see us specifically, feel free to check in first so we don't miss each other like that Bangkok-Chiang Mai loop!

Please catch me if you can. Anywhere, anytime!

One day trip to Elephant Nature Park 🐘✨

This is a rescue and rehabilitation center where elephants can finally live in peace.

No riding, no feeding, no touching.
Just observing them in their daily life.

Most elephants here were rescued from riding camps, circuses, and street begging. Now they are safe, loved, and free.

It’s not just about elephants! This sanctuary also rescues dogs, cats, and even pigs.

A few years ago, the founder, P Lek, rescued many pigs from a truck accident, and yes, they all found a forever home right here.

By visiting ENP, you are directly supporting the care of all these beautiful animals.

Here's what we experienced on this trip 😊

📍 Elephant Nature Park, Chiang Mai, Thailand

PS. This is the Half-Day Morning Program
You can book directly here: https://www.elephantnaturepark.org/book-now/
Or ask us at reception anytime 🙌🏻

Why we believe in the "Open Air" at The Yard

At The Yard, we often find ourselves returning to the wisdom of Albert Camus, who believed that "open air" is one of the essential keys to true happiness. Whether you are staying with us in the vibrant neighborhood of Ari, Bangkok, or enjoying the calm of Northern Thailand at The Yard Chiang Mai, this philosophy is woven into the very fabric of our spaces. We have intentionally preserved our green oases to ensure that even in the heart of the city, you can always find a place where the natural breeze flows freely.

There is something transformative about sitting under the shade of a large tree and simply taking a deep breath. It is in these quiet, outdoor moments that the noise of the world seems to fade away, allowing your mind to finally rest. Whether you are a solo traveler looking for peace or a digital nomad needing a fresh perspective, our garden offers a sanctuary where you can connect with nature without any rush.

At The Yard Hostel Chiang Mai, a garden hostel in the heart of Chiang Mai's Old City, we have many tables around the yard, but somehow our bean bags always win and become the most popular spot.

Every day it's the same cozy corner…
but different people, different conversations, different stories.

Morning coffee chats, afternoon book time, sunset beers.
Sometimes even the cat joins and claims the spot too 😂

It's lovely how the same place can hold so many little moments. We're always grateful to see these corners filled with new faces and new connections.

What about you?

Do you have a favorite spot at The Yard?

Happy Songkran Day or Happy Thai New Yearrr!!✨

The biggest festival in Thailand also known as the Water Festival.

Here at our Yard in Bangkok & Chiang Mai, it’s all about splash, smiles, and fun together!

Grab your water gun and let’s splash.🔫💦😆

April is calling, and it's bringing the HEAT. ☀️🥵

Let's be real, April is the hottest month of the year here in Chiang Mai. While we love the sunshine, we also know how important it is to keep your cool.

Our common room with AC is wide open. If the outdoor sun is too much, grab a cold drink and chill with us inside. And please, drink more water than you think you need, dehydration sneaks up fast.

A little love for our AC: they're working overtime this month to keep your rooms comfortable. It might take a bit longer than usual to reach that perfect temperature, but they're trying their best, just like the rest of us. 🌡️

At The Yard Hostel Chiang Mai, we keep it simple and honest. Whether you're a budget traveler or a digital nomad looking for a comfortable base in Chiang Mai this April, not perfect, but always here to make sure you have a great stay, even when the thermometer is hitting the roof.
