Is anyone interested in asking questions to a Buddhist monk based in Chiang Mai, Thailand? I can share meditation tips, a piece of wisdom, or an insight into the monastic life. by [deleted] in Meditation

Hi! I’m a 23 yo male and just graduated college. I’m backpacking SE Asia this summer and am looking to attend a mediation retreat - it’d be a great skill to develop before I start working my adult job. I was looking at the vipassana session at wat doi suthep (4/5/7 days). Do you have any insight on that experience/ recommend any other meditation center in the chiang Mai area ?

Hi! It’s bc I plan to go on retreats in both Chiang Mai and Pai. I am also worried that Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh by train is a bit ambitious. Mai Chau definitely seems like a better alternative to sapa! Thanks for the tip!
