Day 13 - Back to Bangkok We woke up quite early today, and i decided to follow Y to wear he had his breakfast yesterday. Y told me yesterday he actually ate steak for breakfast. I was equally in disbelief, both the fact that one can eat steak at breakfast, as well as the fact that there is a restaurant offering steak at breakfast time. Apparently Y found a nice french restaurant/cafe on a street a block from our hotel. I ordered french toast set with coffee, and Y, again ordered steak lol. Price is reasonable. Back at hotel, reconfirmed with reception on our shuttle to airport. Before leaving the room for checkout, I gave Y his tips. We arrived at the airport on time, not many people except for one or two group of tours. At the counter, they asked to weight our carryon, something that DMK didnt bother to do before. Flight was on time, and we took the taxi back to silom. Y asked the taxi to drop him off at the traffic light near chongnongsi bts, which is close to where he lives and taxi continue to drop me at my hotel, Furama. Checked-in and in my room by 5pm. Took a nap before heading out to eat dinner and back to hotel and ready for my night adventure. As i walked toward Silom, i bumped into Y and his friend getting ready to go to jupiter. Tonight however is another meeting with fellow forum member, @DivineMadman and @Keithambrose. We met at red dragon bar, at around 8pm. We chat for quite a long time comparing notes about boys, bars, massage places, as well as weahter politics, immigration as well as our plan for tonight. We drink and talked until close to 11pm, when keith and david announced they will go back for rest. Tonight i wanted to go to Moonlight. I already had my eye on myanmar guy, K, Jericho rosales look-alike, who i already saw on my first visit to moonlight this trip, and offed him LT before on my previous trip where he used to work in screwboy. I remember i had a nice time with him before. I arrived in the middle of the show, and somehow the middle row near the walkway have one seat empty, near the pillar in the middle. Not my favorite place but still allow me access to the model boom boom shake dance routine, and at the center will be Babe, though i prefer at the end where ill be closer to Nut but hey, i did came in late and Babe is cute hot and sexy anyway. For the first time as well, i saw Spai doing show, where he is the main with another ladyboy doing a number that is quite sexy. A saw me, but not for tonight, so i gave him 100 baht note for still being the best body there. I asked mamasan to bring K to me and off him without delay. He stills remember me on my first visit this trip, and this time i plan to off him so no point of waiting. He changed to his street cloth and off we go. As always, asked if he wanted to eat, he buy some street food on the way to the hotel. I told him i want LT, too bad he said he cant do long time as he has day job now, stating he wont have enough if he just rely on bar work. I guess partly my fault for not confirming at the bar if he can do LT or not, but thinking back, I wouldnt trade other guy anyway that night, so ST it is. His service is as before, great passionate and eager to please. His smile is a winner and he stays with me for more than 2 hours before he goes back home. So far, all my off in bangkok has been a repeat.8 points

Rio... where to begin. I guess I’ll start at the with some travel information and move on from there. I took United going and Delta coming back. I was honestly dreading the 9.5 hour flight but I ended up getting an upgrade to an emergency exit row seat which made the flight much easier. (I’m 6’4 anything less would have been torcher). First let me say that I did bring my own weed from American in my carry on and the process couldn’t have been simpler. I rolled up about an OZ of MJ into blunts put it in a bag and vacuumed sealed it. Made it through 3 flights without issue. Did I take a little unnecessary risk... probably but that CDD weed is trash and so I’m glad I had my stash. I booked two air b&b both in Copa 10 minutes from 202 and had no problem with guest so if you need a recommendation lmk. Now to the Saunas... I arrived on Sunday around 2pm once unpacked I headed straight for the beach as the weather was reporting constant rain for the next 3-4 days. So I rolled up a joint and headed to the beach for a few hours. This is when I realized Rio has some of the most beautiful people in the world. There was one guy extremely dark skinned with a body chiseled from the gods! He was selling Caipirinha so of course I bought one and took a picture with him. My god he was simply amazing. Around 6pm I left the beach went home got showered, cleaned up and headed to 117. Before I got there I stopped at an ATM, now this is VERY important. Unlike most countries I have visited the ATMs in Brazil ask if you would like to convert your money before withdrawing, DO NOT DO IT! Where the current exchange rate is .23 for one real it changes to .28-.30 cent if you choose the first option. Just decline and you will be given a second option which is the more favorable exchange rate. Now back to the good stuff. The moments of walking up to 117 were nerve recking because despite all my reading I had no idea what to expect, well I walked in and was immediately greeted by two guys just flapping their dicks around. They were not my type in the least but it got me warmed up to what to expect over the course of my trip. So I walked in got changed and started wondering around. I felt so out of place my first visit! I wasn’t overly attracted to any of the guys and felt a little disappointed. They were all muscles guys many older than me with okay faces. I have my own muscles and I’m definitely not interested in anyone substantially older than myself. But many guys would come over initiate conversation and I would politely decline, I honestly wasn’t even interested in kissing them even though many tried to force their kisses on me. I moved to the back of the smoking room and set on the coach, I had a THC oil pen and I just chilled until I spotted something I was interested in. Then Calvin walked in... a slim black guy with a beautiful smile. I made eye contact with him and he walked directly over to me, he spoke decent English so we talked briefly. He asked me what I was into, I told him I’m a top but I love kissing, touching an oral. So he proceeds to give me the most sensual kiss I have had in a long time. He was still in his street cloths so he said let me go change and left to go put on his towel. A few minutes later he was back and engaging with me again. After about 20 minutes of conversation he asked me if I wanted to program. I told him I wasn’t interested in a program here but I would rather have an overnight stay at my apartment. So I told him once your night is over let me know and we can leave for my apartment. He looked around at the crowd and said I don’t have anything scheduled let’s go now. I asked him how much he said 500. I told him I had American weed and Jack Daniels and that we would party and chill in my apartment and he agreed to come for my rate of 350. We arrived in my apartment and had a magical night! He was everything I wanted, he even tried to bottom for me (epic fail). But we still had an amazing time, him kissing me all over my body and me doing the same. This definitely set the tone for the rest of my trip to Rio! I woke up Monday morning, brushed my teeth and kissed Calvin goodbye, and checked out Vivalocal and the other GP sites for my next body. The next few days were just constant rain so literally all I could do were more guys. That’s when I located Diego, a smaller black muscle guy who was also verse, I figured he would be a good transition until 202. And he was, he did not look exactly like his pictures but he was still sexy and my god was he passionate and the ONLY bottom who I fucked who didn’t completely paint my dick. He took ALL of me like a champ! Which was such a turn on because he was still very masculine. We smoked some weed had a drink and fucked for about 2 hours. We probably only actually fucked for 20 minutes the rest was just kissing and touching, watching TV and listening to music. This was a consistent theme for most of the guys I hired offline. They would come for 150 and would usually stay for about two hours as long as you were willing to provide the weed and or food. After a long day of drinking and fucking I went to 202, it was packed! I never understood what everyone talks about when they mention Junior and how much he loves himself until you go to 202. He is literally EVERYWHERE, photos of himself on every wall and Point 202 by Junior is written EVERYWHERE lol! Despite Juniors face everywhere once again I could not find a guy I was really into! So I settled for a guy who I believe name was “Fredrick” a muscle black guy, short bald head big dick and butt. He was very passionate in his plea for a program Kissing and touching all over me and I wanted a nice body to cuddle with for the night. We settled at 300 for the overnight and left. He was super sweet but asked to take a joint of my American weed home with him the next morning. This irritated me because I already wasn’t head over heels for him but I’m a nice guy so I gave him one. The next day TUESDAY was the same thing, one guy from online during the day, this time it was Thiago, a muscular black guy who was on the taller side. He was definitely beautiful but a bit boring. He did not smoke weed or drink so our chemistry was off from the beginning. But it was free cabin night at 117 so I was excited! I walked into 117 and instantly found a black guy I was interest in, he was probably 6’2 dark black skin and a a beautiful muscles with blond hair. He was a wonderful program, and I would have taken him home with me but he left immediately after our program was over. I never even got his phone number. But then I meet Ricardo, a light skinned black guy with beautiful muscles and smile and a FAT ASS. He was a top as well but kissed very sensually, it was late when I meet him around 9:30 so we spoke and kissed briefly. I asked if he wanted to program back at my apartment, he agreed we set a price of 400 for overnight and we left. On my way out I saw a guy named João he was a light skinned black guy prob 6ft with muscles and a beautiful smile, I got his number and let him know I was booked tonight but was looking forward to a program with him in the future. I got to the apartment with Ricardo had some drinks, smoked some weed had sex. The sex was great! I tried to fuck him but my dick was much to big for his small hole and I wasn’t in the mood to be shitted on again. So we kissed did oral kissed some more, watched TV, relaxed, did more oral and kiss and then passed out. I rubbed on his beautiful ass ALL night long, that was honestly my favorite part of the program. He was so sweet, the next morning when he left he also asked if he could take a joint of my American weed with him. Once again me being the nice guy I am I gave him a small joint. He was extremely grateful and I was grateful to have spent a night with him. We would see each other again later on in my trip for an even hotter session. The next day WEDNESDAY was another day full of rain so I did my regular thing, one program from online during the day, this time it was Pedro, a beautiful mixed Race guy who had a beautiful ass and cock. We got together and did the regular, smoked a joint and started kissing. In his ad he claimed to be versatile but had a hard time taking all of me. It was very tight and I ended up getting painted once again. But honestly getting painted is a part of the world of a top if you want to fuck “masculine” guys as they do not prep well for anything bigger than a 6inch dick. But I still had an amazing time with Pedro, he was super sweet and affectionate and because he felt bad for shitting on me sucked me off until completion. His program was only 150 real which was so cheap I almost felt bad and ended up giving him 200 which I thought was more fair for his level of service. João from 117 the night before contacted me and asked if I wanted a program. I let him know I was busy at the moment but would be at 202 tonight, he agreed to meet me there. 202 on Wednesday was AMAZING!! As soon as I walked in I knew there were way too many guys for me to have in one night and João would arrive shortly. I immediately saw one guy leaving who was 100% my type in every way. Very black smaller build with a huge ass, I should have stopped him and got his number but it wouldn’t be the last time we saw each other. 202 had me like a kid in a candy store. So many beautiful black men! Then João arrived, he usually works at 117 and this was his first time in 202, I could tell he was uncomfortable. So we got a drink spoke briefly then went to get our free room for the program. The room I got in 202 was not the best and would be the last time I had sex in one. But João was still amazing! We kissed and did oral for about 30 minutes until we both came, it was a great program! He asked for 150 so I gave him 200. The exchange rate with USD is extremely favorable so why not be generous?? João left and I went back to to see what else I could get into at 202. There were about 3 or 4 guys who I wanted to get with but I saw one guy deeply dark skinned about 6’5 and slim. I was immediately in love! We made eye contact and he came over to me introduced himself. I told him I was done with programs at 202 as the rooms were not up to my standard but at the end of the night I wanted him to come over my apartment to party and have a night cap. I explained that I had some American weed and liquor and that we would relax and have a good time. I asked him how much and he said 250, at that point there was no need to negotiate any further as that was a cheap rate. I told him that I wanted to collect a few numbers and that I was ready to leave whenever he was. He said he was ready to leave now and went to change. We hung out at 202 until around 9 then we left for the apartment. I was hungry so we stopped at a little beach restaurant across the street from my apartment and got some grilled food. He ordered for both of us and one of the grilled items he ordered was chicken heart! I had never eaten chicken heart before but it was delicious! Then we headed back to my apartment. Me and Santi had the most amazing night ever, he tried to please me in every way he could and for the entire night. We did not go to sleep until the sun came up around 5am. It was the best night so far! This is the half way mark of my trip and where I stop for the moment. One last piece of advice is if you plan on bringing many guys back to your place like I did I would strongly suggest getting more than one bedroom. You should have at least two! One for sex and one for sleep! Because once you get shit on sheets there is no coming back from it lol! I will find time over the next couple of days to write up on part two which has my three and foursomes. It is also the first days of sun so that means long days at the beach and long nights partying.4 points

Trip to Bangkok in March (Newcomer)
JackR and one other reacted to Davidpain1985 for a topic
Hi, I’m new to this forum and am a virgin looking to lose my virginity in Thailand next month. I’m already planning a trip to Bangkok in March (planning to stay at Le Meridien). What would the best place to go to off a guy? I know I most probably can’t decide for myself and probably need advice from a Mamasan regarding my preference (I’m a top and would prefer twink/athletic type of guys). Should I go to certain bars or maybe a massage place would be better? Need help..2 points -
Bloomberg v. Trump
AdamSmith reacted to RockHardNYC for a topic
I don't agree with that. President Obama was no crook. If anything, the Republicans robbed him of many of the successes he wanted to achieve. God forbid they let the first Black president go down in history as one of the true greats of this country. McConnell was determined to make Obama a one-term president, and he failed, but he cheated and robbed Obama at every turn. The only way Republicans can win these days is by cheating and suppressing the vote. RA1, your statement is utterly simplistic and very cynical. No wonder this country is in the state that it is.1 point -
Prime massage has established its popularity not just Among ASEAN and Chinese visitors but with westerners as well. Many have posted in this thread and others about the consistency of its quality and value. There’s something comforting, knowing that you can visit a shop where it’s assumed that you’ve chosen it—like a favorite restaurant—for a predicable and satisfying experience—sans the sex.1 point

Bloomberg v. Trump
AdamSmith reacted to RockHardNYC for a topic
It's no secret: I work with a ton of famous people. The things I have read about some can make a scalp raw from head scratching. Not long ago my son and I had a talk about who is best to tell my life story when I'm gone. My relatives think they know me well, and some would love to cash in. No one knows "the truth" more than my son. However, if given the chance, both would tell a completely different story, and readers would wonder if both were lying to protect the truth from coming out. Especially a private life taken out of context, absent of life's nuances and grey areas. In other words, absent of thinking. Today we have click-bate and 24/7 entertainment news. The odds of finding a hero with a stain-free life are zero to none. I care much more about smart, creative ideas than I care about ideology. If the Republicans could put up a genius, I might vote for him/her. Instead, they got in bed with the Devil, and I hope they pay a very high price.

Bloomberg v. Trump
AdamSmith reacted to RockHardNYC for a topic
Are rumors about anyone famous total lies, partial lies, or absolute truth? What is a "fact" in this age of Trumpism? You never really know someone until you witness behavior one-on-one over a reasonable length of time. Even then, surprising truths can exist. I'm sure plenty of people from my corporate past could describe comments or jokes I made as sexist, and I happen to love women. Show me a man in his 70's who hasn't expressed some degree of sexism and I'll show you a miracle. I've been present at many advertising meetings where the race of a projected customer was discussed in ways that, out of context, could easily be described as racial enmity. If those conversations were recorded, the out-of-context words would certainly derail a public life dependent on votes. While I never threatened anyone's job over sex in my corporate life, I had numerous sexual encounters with underling employees of the company I worked for. Not all of them were consensual, but none of them rose to the level of professional admonishment. Today, post #metoo, not one of those encounters would be considered OK or acceptable. If I ever decided to run for public office, I have no idea who might come out of their closet to say something awful about me. "Reports of...?" I take all reports with a grain of salt, until I've had the opportunity to see for myself. Then I decide what is fake and what is real. Tomorrow's debate will offer something.1 point -

escort in egypt
axiom2001 reacted to cactusjack75 for a topic
What do you mean by 'Brazilian standard' in terms of appearance? It is a muslim country so I don't think guys are going to be walking around with speedo's like Ipanema lol.. I found the Egyptians hot but that is me, I prefer younger and skinny - twinkish looks and there are plenty of cute Egyptian eye candy for me. As for hooking up there - homosexuality is obviously frowned upon in a majority muslim country. It isn't technically illegal but the authorities have been known to arrest gays for engaging immoral acts using vague 'indecency' laws. A western tourist being cornered in this way is probably extremely rare, but I guess not impossible. I wouldn't rule out hooking up with someone but be very cautious. Meet in a public place first and get a good sense of the person before doing anything. Might be difficult to bring one to your hotel though. I have a friend who had no issues staying in the western 5 star hotels in Cairo. I have no experiences with Air bnb in Cairo but if there is a doorman/security to the building - could be problematic. Anyway have fun and share your experiences1 point -
Day 12 - Day 3 Laos trip Y woke up early today (7am, which is not too early for me), and told me he is hungry and want to go eat outside. I told him we got buffet breakfast at hotel but he said he dont want to eat the buffet, and dont mind going out alone. I told him ok, and i went back to sleep and woke up later when he came back. I had my breakfast buffet alone meanwhile and back to hotel for some more bedroom activities. After day activities, I have to say ive grown fond of morning gymnastic more than at night. Funny titbit during this session though. Y proclaimed that he dont want to cum this morning. I obviously has no issue with that, but also took that as a challenge. Needless to say, halfway through, he suddenly told me he wanted to cum, so mission accomplished lol. Y also asked if he can send some clothes to laundry as he dont have anymore change of clothes after today, so i called the hotel to asked when will we get the laundry and they say by evening, so I told Y he can just use the hotel laundry service. Revisiting Y proposal yesterday, we went to reception again, this time the older staff manning the reception. I asked about the restaurant where we can eat on a boat again and he seems to know the place, and tell us it is a bit outside the city as well. I asked him to give me a quote, so he called the driver and asked. Got a different quote this time compared to yesterday, and i asked if they can make the price similar to yesterday and got a yes and I added few more places near the city as part of the trip. Its already near noonish already so we decided to go to the boat/restaurant first. Thanks to Y, we are going to eat lunch on a boat on the mekong river (technically its Nam Ngum river). The restaurant is called Tha Ngon floating restaurants, and the reception told us it is quite famous amongst the Korean tourist. About 30mins drive to the restaurant, located in small village of Tha Ngon. It is a huge floating restaurant moored to the river bank. Y again took charge on the ordering and asked the waiter about the boat. Seems like we have to wait for a while for the boat, and Y is already hungry, so we sit at the floating restaurant first and order the food. As usual, Y order the food he thinks id eat, mostly seafood on offer here, farm and raised on the river itself. While eating, I can see few boats passing through, and the music is loud enough to be heard from the restaurant. One of the food Y order, which i wouldnt dare to eat is the dancing shrimp, which is small shrimp, eaten raw and alive. The waiter finally signal to us when our boat is ready, long after we finished our meals. Waiter asked if we would like to order anything for the boat ride, so we ordered drinks and snacks, and one plate of grilled shrimp. So, you can actually hired private boat by the hour here. We took one hour boat ride, and it was just me and Y, with 2 quite handsome Lao boatmen, one steering the boat, and another manning the Karaoke system. We had the whole boat, which can easily fit 20 people to ourselves. Surprisingly, there are some, limited amount of english songs VC on the karaoke system, and the guy manning the karaoke system even have a notebook listing some of the code for popular english songs. One thing i havent mentioned about Y, he likes to sings, and listen to ballads kind of songs (cambodian songs mostly). However, on the boat, he didnt find any of his songs, so I ended up the one who sings most of the time lol. Nevertheless, he said he enjoys the boat ride, of course, with him drinking few bottles of beers, and taking multiple selfies. He said next time he want to bring his family and friends here. I can see this would be an awesome location to hold private party very cheaply, maybe hold one for our forum members retreat?. The bills for the food is not much different than any other place in vientiane, but of course i have to pay for the use of the boat, which is extra, but all in all, definitely worth the experience.1 point

Koh Chang
10tazione reacted to macaroni21 for a topic
Below is a photo from 2018, taken at a bubbletea cafe in Galle Fort, Sri Lanka, trying to make the best of their situation (no wifi). But as you said, the new generation finds the absence of wifi intolerable, so there was no one but me in this shop for over an hour. Oh, as for the sign cut off at the left edge of the picture, it says "I keep losing weight, but it keeps finding me." I find it quite apposite, and made me feel guilty about having afternoon tea there. I had half a mind to tell the proprietor that making his clients feel guilty about his cakes and bubbletea, and exhorting them to talk (what's that?), is not exactly a secret to success in his business.

Koh Chang
Boy69 reacted to daydreamer for a topic
Mack - to answer your questions: Yes, the bungalow was a duplex. The room was square, and the bathroom was tucked around, added onto the back side, not visible in the photo from the front. The front deck was thoughtfully offset to provide privacy so the residents from the other unit were not visible when they were sitting outside. As for food, we ate every meal at different Kai Bae restaurants. There was plenty of variety, lots of seafood places, regular non-seafood Thai food, and a number of different options for western food. There was even a Thai buffet place where you cook your own food at your table, it looked popular with locals and some tourists. The only western meal we ate was pizza one night, so I can't really speak to the quality of the western food, although there was a highly rated Mexican restaurant very close to the bungalow compound, but we didn't eat there. There are quite a few small restaurants down the side sois off the main road. As I said in the report, meal prices were reasonable, not inflated like on some islands. Most places are open air, typical of a beach resort. Here's a typical restaurant right on the main road in Kai Bae where we ate breakfast one morning. Note the parrot sitting in the tree in this photo. In addition, there was a place specializing in burgers, one serving Greek food, and the usual western fare of Italian, plus Indian restaurants that seem to be everywhere in Thailand nowadays. There were no Indian tourists, and it looked like the Indian restaurants were starving for business. There was even an Indian tailor shop offering to "make a nice suit for you, sir". Seemed kind of out of place on a laid back tropical island. The restaurants I just mentioned were all at Kai Bae within a short walk from the room. Lots more food options at the other beaches not far away, but we were satisfied with what we found at Kai Bae. The tap water was fine. I brushed my teeth with it, and no strange odor or discoloration in the water. I know what you mean, I remember staying at the Tropica Bungalows at Patong Beach in Phuket about 20 years ago. The tap water contained tiny red worms I could see coming from the tap against the white sink. And this was no budget room, Tropica Bungalows is right on the beach road, directly at the corner of Bangla Road in Patong Beach. I suspect some water gets contaminated from being held in those large storage tanks many places use. The water sits in the heat in those storage tanks, and who knows what grows in the tanks. Yes, I remember when many places on Koh Samet used generators for electricity, before there was a stable power supply. The place I stayed 20+ years ago on Koh Samet would turn off the generators during daylight hours, so no power all day. I agree, the tap water was dodgy on Koh Samet back then, but things have improved a lot in the last couple decades. Of course this was before the internet. Could you imagine today not having wi-fi access 24/7, or power to a cell phone tower when the generators turn off all day? It wouldn't bother me, but the way many people are glued to their screens all day, I think they wouldn't know what to do with themselves with no phone access. There is a sign on the wall in the Balcony Pub in Silom Soi 4 next to the bar that reads "We have wi-fi, so you don't need to talk to each other". Sad, but true. Yes, the sea was clean. No sign of pollution. When we drove to the far side of the island where it's sparsely populated, I noticed a large sewage treatment facility, so they are trying to keep the sea clean. This was many miles from the beaches on the west side of the island. They're doing a lot better at keeping the water clean than Hong Kong is. There are approximately 200 ships in port in Hong Kong daily at anchor and various moorages in the harbors. Raw sewage is regularly pumped from the ships directly into the sea in Hong Kong rather than transferring it to sewage barges for proper treatment. The photos of the beach were taken at Kai Bae Beach. White Sands Beach is a few miles north, and is the nicest and largest beach on the island with the best sand, although the most crowded with people. We went to White Sands one day to swim, but like I say, it's far more crowded. At Kai Bae, there were plenty of places with chairs or loungers tucked back under the trees. No masses of chairs and umbrellas like they have in Jomtien. One more thing to note - public access to the beaches is becoming harder to find. Like many places in the world, resorts buy up big swaths of ocean front land, denying the public access to the water. This is widespread at White Sands Beach. Take a look at the satellite view on Google, and you can see how resorts are blocking off entire beaches from the public. Of course the beaches are public up to the high tide mark, but in some areas of Koh Chang, try getting to the water without trespassing. In Kai Bae, there is open public access to the beach, with a road leading right to the water. That's how the elephants access the beach every day to swim.1 point
