The People Behind Visit Chiang Mai OnlineThe creators of the site, Kevin and Rose Butters settled in Chiang Mai just a couple of years ago after living on the paradise island of Koh Samui. They were knocked out by the friendliness of the Chiang Mai people, the profound beauty of the city and its laid-back lifestyle during a short trip there. They immediately decided to leave Koh Samui and move to Chiang Mai and have not looked back since. Kevin, who was originally from the UK and has extensive experience of Far Eastern home decor sourcing, immediately saw an opportunity that nobody appeared to be addressing -- which was to build a comprehensive, information based website which also incorporated an online shop. And what better place to do that than Chiang Mai, the Asian capital city of artisan handicrafts. Inspired by his love of the land and the people of Chiang Mai, Kevin and Rose have built a website that is overflowing with facts, stories, lore and details about the area that are fascinating and educational. This is a website you can definitely sink your teeth into and spend some time exploring. Customer Testimonials
