⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ Sawaddee, khrub, it’s a really great pleasure to welcome you to Thailand. ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ 𝚂𝚊𝚠𝚊𝚍𝚍𝚎𝚎, 𝚔𝚑𝚛𝚞𝚋 (/𝚜𝚊̀/𝚠𝚊̈𝚍/𝚍𝚎𝚎/∘𝚔𝚑𝚛ŭ𝚋∘/ ⇨ 𝚘𝚛 สวัสดีครับ 𝚒𝚗 𝚃𝚑𝚊𝚒 𝚕𝚊𝚗𝚐𝚞𝚊𝚐𝚎) 𝚖𝚎𝚊𝚗𝚜 𝚑𝚒 𝚘𝚛 𝚑𝚎𝚕𝚕𝚘․ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ ✨ My name is 𝐒𝐰𝐚𝐢 (/𝚜𝚊̀/𝚠𝚊ɪ/ ⇨ 𝚘𝚛 ไสว 𝚒𝚗 𝚃𝚑𝚊𝚒 𝚕𝚊𝚗𝚐𝚞𝚊𝚐𝚎)․ A long time ago, shortly after graduating from university, I didn't have a specific career path in mind. I took on a variety of temporary occupations to build up a diverse professional background. Initially, I started out working as a volunteer for various youth camping clubs. I then dedicated seven years to working as a private school teacher. After that, I spent most of my time searching for full-time work while taking on various vacancies, such as an office clerk, office coordinator, and tutor. In fact, those positions were not the right fit or the type of work I preferred, none of them provided the answer to my ideal career path. It was almost a perfect match for my career goals and preferences when I worked in a travel agency. Even so, the daily tasks and duties still felt quite similar to a typical office job. I eventually realized that my primary and heartfelt desire was to work outdoors, as free as a bird, rather than being confined or surrounded by the walls of an ordinary room. I am deeply passionate about wilderness adventures, including traveling, hiking, swimming, and scuba diving. I also love photography, reading, and constantly challenging myself to acquire new skills. After deciding to escape from the routine of an office job, I finally fulfilled my ultimate career goal of becoming a local cultural tour guide. I absolutely love delving into the details of local cultures, folklore, traditions, histories, and lifestyles, as well as the national heritage sites and natural resources of particular areas. Currently, I work as a nationally licensed tour guide, an occupation I have proudly pursued since 1994. Having been born, raised, and educated in Bangkok, I intend to reside here permanently. Nowadays, whenever I have free time, I enjoy going on solo adventures, frequently exploring and updating everywhere from remote, hidden communities to the top local attractions, even repeatedly. There is no doubt that I have become entirely accustomed not only to the central areas but also to the suburbs and their environs. Generally, a number of my trips have been on foot, although I sometimes use various forms of public transport or a private car. Additionally, apart from the capital city, I have casually traveled to every single province in the entire country. During those personal journeys, I also devoted myself to social service activities, such as volunteering for community functions, providing disaster relief, and making donations at remote rural villages or temples. However, with its diverse and contrasting regions, this fascinating and exquisite country continues to offer breathtaking sights, rewarding activities, and a vast array of features that seamlessly make it a truly worthwhile destination for all visitors. Lastly, for all these reasons, I would be absolutely delighted to invite you, your family, and your traveling companions to join me for a tour as my exceptionally honored guests in this cordial and welcoming land, ⇨ “ 𝐓𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐝 ”. ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ☆ Every published tour is well-explained in detail, topic by topic, including the total 𝐏𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐄 and 𝐀𝐕𝐀𝐈𝐋𝐀𝐁𝐈𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘 completely.
