Anyone who follows the phenomenon of nomading knows that there are certain \u201chotspots\u201d around the world that are incredibly popular with nomads and long-term travelers: Mexico City, Mexico; Lisbon, Portugal; Medell\u00edn, Colombia; Bali, Indonesia; Bansko, Bulgaria; and Tbilisi, Georgia.<\/p>\n

Which is exactly why Michael and I never wanted to come here. All those nomads? We didn\u2019t leave America to travel the world just to hang out with people exactly like ourselves. And didn\u2019t the whole city exist just to cater to these people? That didn\u2019t seem like a very authentic \u201cThai\u201d experience.<\/p>\n\n
