BIO
Hi friend! My name is Dev. I am an an international yoga educator currently rooted in the Pacific Northwest - however you can often find me off on exciting adventures exploring new countries as I lead transformational yoga retreats all over the world! I provide mentorship and yoga education to both yoga practitioners and teachers; supporting my students with loving guidance both on and off the mat as we unlock their highest potential. A little about my back story - I have been deeply introspective, questioning, and curious from a young age. My passion for philosophy, spirituality, and personal enlightenment over the years naturally led me to the path of yoga when I was seventeen years old. In 2015 I was in college studying education, art, and religion when I knew it was time to leave it all behind and follow my heart, devoting my life to yoga and its teachings. Today I continue to teach both locally and internationally, connecting and sharing the power of yoga with students of all kinds from all walks of life.

Your Local Guide

Nicha Explorations logo

Nicha Exploration was established in 2022 by Bo Srivalwat with a passion to make vacationing to Southeast Asia, her home region, special to everyone. Bo was born and raised in Thailand. Growing up, she found joy and peace through traveling and exploring different cultures and activities.

During her time at business school, Bo also led the Thailand Cultural Trek for the Wharton Southeast Asia Club, utilizing her expertise as a local, as well as her understanding about traveling as an active traveler herself. She was overwhelmed by the positive feedback she received from the trek members and decided to start Nicha Exploration. With local expertise and the love of their country and culture, the Nicha team crafts vacation experiences that provide not only ultimate leisure but also personal growth and unique experiences for travelers.

Fantastic experience

I had a fantastic time traveling with the Nicha team to Vietnam and Thailand. They planned a series of thoughtful, authentic, and fun excursions for us. The tour guides were informative, kind, and engaging. Highly recommend traveling with them if you’re interested in exploring a new place in a fun and authentic way. As an MBA grad, founder Bo knows how to strike the right balance of high quality stays, enjoyable cultural and educational outings, delicious meals, and energetic nights out.

This was the best trip I’ve taken abroad and could not have asked for more. Em and Bo were rockstars and we loved every minute of the trip.

High quality of services

From planning, execution to finish of the retreat, I have been fully supported by Bo from Nicha Exploration. All of my opinions were heard and adjustments were made accordingly. Bo did really great on meeting expectations from me and every participants. Her responses were always prompt. There is literally nothing I can complain about Nicha Exploration's services.
