Ness Jutamas
G’day! Sawaddee ka! I’m Ness, a Thai-Aussie who calls both countries home :)
I’ve lived and travelled around Australia for the past 10 years and love discovering its beautiful beaches, wildlife, national parks, food and hidden gems. Thailand is also very special to me. I’ve travelled to more than 70 provinces and love sharing local experiences beyond the usual tourist spots.
I’ve also travelled to Japan, South Korea, Singapore, China, Vietnam, and the USA, and previously studied in California. These experiences have given me a real appreciation for exploring new places and experiencing different cultures.
Whether you’re dreaming of an Australian road trip, a relaxing beach escape, or discovering the best of Thailand, I’d love to help you create a trip that feels just right for you.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"I specialize in travel across Australia and Thailand.
In Australia, I especially enjoy planning self-drive adventures and road trips, coastal escapes, wildlife experiences, national parks, food and wine, family holidays, and boutique stays. I particularly love Queensland, New South Wales, Victoria, and the ACT.
In Thailand, I enjoy creating trips around beautiful beaches and islands, local food, culture, nature, and hidden gems beyond the usual tourist trail.
I love combining the must-see highlights with local experiences, great food, and a few unexpected stops along the way. For me, the perfect itinerary should give you enough time to enjoy the highlights without feeling rushed."
How did you get involved in travel?
"Travel has always been a big part of my life. After years of exploring Australia, Thailand, and other countries, I discovered how much I enjoy helping others plan their own adventures."
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"One of my most memorable trips was travelling by motorhome from Canberra to the Twelve Apostles. We stopped along the way to explore small towns, enjoy delicious local food, and take in Australia’s incredible coastal scenery. Meeting friendly locals and having the freedom to travel at our own pace made the journey just as special as the destination. It showed me that the best travel experiences often come from the unexpected moments along the way."
