Finally, after two transfers to different vehicles and a steep ascent up a winding road constantly going uphill, we found ourselves in a large square at the foot of the sacred mountain.
Life is bustling here. This is where an inexplicable feeling of touching a mystery begins.
For digital nomads, moments like these are priceless. They remind us why we chose this lifestyle – not just to work from anywhere, but to experience the world in ways we never could from a traditional office.
In the next post, you’ll learn where the “spirits” live. It’s a fascinating glimpse into local beliefs and traditions, something that can deeply enrich our understanding of the places we work from.
Traveler’s Tip: Cost of a ticket to the sacred mountain and sacred stone: Free. But take small change and bills of 20, 50, and 100 baht for donations, and incense for offerings to the spirits.
For fellow digital nomads, experiences like these offer a unique opportunity to step away from our screens and immerse ourselves in local culture. It’s often these moments of disconnection that lead to our greatest insights and creativity.
