nice to meet you!
i'm a 2001 girl named manao <3 (sometimes i spell manow) it means 'lime' in thai
and, YES, as you can tell I AM THAI

manao is just my nickname. my real name is Kanticha
which means 'born with love'. my mom gave me this name and i really love it
some foreign teachers often call me 'cha' because it's easy to pronounce

note
thai people have real names use for official purposes. thai given names and family names are long, so everyone has nickname use in daily life. thai nicknames can be ANYTHING. something their parents like, things to eat, places, vegetables, fruits such as cake, fon (rain), dao (star), earn, dream, music.




my native language is thai,
i also can speak english and korean

i spent time at Korea Game Science High School as an exchange student back in grade 8
that’s when i started learning korean along with some basic graphics and programming

i graduated in asian studies in 2024. it's really fun diving deep into the cultures, histories, languages, societies and perspectives across asia

i'm busy with 2 jobs now but still really passionate about getting back to study in asia pacific studies
i wanna being part of something that fosters cross-cultural understanding and bridges gaps between different societies
