Chiang Mai Business Pulse
- Culture Creative, relaxed, and a major hub for digital nomads and local tourism.
- Lunch Break 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM.
- Pro Tip Best reached between 10:00 AM and 11:30 AM. The vibe is more relaxed than in Bangkok, but Thai etiquette (Jai Yen, politeness) still applies. Punctuality is respected in professional settings. Be aware of the "burning season" (Feb-April) which can affect local travel and health.
Istanbul Business Pulse
- Culture A bridge between East and West. Business is personal, and hospitality (tea/coffee) is a prerequisite.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Aim for calls between 10:00 AM and 12:00 PM or 2:00 PM and 4:30 PM. Turkish business culture is highly relational; starting with "Nasılsınız?" (How are you?) and building rapport is essential. Avoid scheduling critical calls late on Friday afternoons.
