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.
Sofia Business Pulse
- Culture Energetic, tech-focused, and increasingly international. A growing hub for IT and services.
- Lunch Break 12:30 PM - 1:30 PM.
- Pro Tip Best times for calls are 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM. Bulgarians value personal rapport; a warm but professional tone is effective. The tech sector is very globalized and efficient. Punctuality is appreciated. Be prepared for direct and honest communication once trust is established.
