About the Founder

Sawassdee Kha. Wanmai Kha.

Hello, my name is Kanoknaphat (Wanmai), founder of Thailand Localist.I originally lived in Bangkok, but I moved to Nakhon Nayok, a small province near Bangkok, where I have worked in tourism for the past ten years. Living here made me realize how charming this place truly is — warm and welcoming people, beautiful nature, mountains, waterfalls, and the Khao Yai World Heritage forest nearby. There are also fun adventure activities to enjoy all year round.

What surprised me most is that many travelers still don’t know about this wonderful area. That inspired me to create Thailand Localist — to introduce people to Nakhon Nayok and other beautiful places near Bangkok, and to guide them in a friendly way,liketraveling with a local friend.I want every guest to experience real places, meet local people, hear their stories, and discover

the beauty of Thai nature and culture.Come and create meaningful memories with us, and experience Thailand in a truly authentic way. 🌿

Message me anytime and I’ll help plan your perfect escape from Bangkok.
