I spent 4 months living in
Chiang Mai last year. It wasn’t a long time by local standards but long enough
by backpacking ones. And in a short matter of time, I fell in love with the
city. If you look closely enough, you’ll see Chiang Mai is totally run by women.
The food carts, the market stalls, all the shops in between, chances are a
woman is at the helm. So naturally, I wrote a travel story [PDF] for Bust Magazine to uncover all the female-friendly gems of
Chiang Mai. I’m really proud of the piece, mostly because it’s been a feminist dream
of mine to write for Bust. Basically, I can die peacefully now.
