It is always more fun when you do it with your friends. we did have a great time. Hoping to do it again soon.

It was not that very down to earth V or meaty hunky T from sabaidee massage or that famous moonlight model who made my BKK trip enjoyable. it was no one else but vinapu who made this trip more fun. without him, my trip wouldnt have been this much fun. hoping to do it again soon in a near future Shifu!!

Good things dont last long. Same blue chairs in the same place but with opposite emotions. Bye for now. Till we meet again BKK.

I am still learning from the guys and how they are doing their business. Tonight I learned something new. I used to be a complete social butterfly on my previous trips to BKK - preferred no repeat policy. But two guys have changed me on this trip. I would usually wake up in the mornings with Line messages from both of them "What are you doing today?" or "Will you see me today?" Of course, I am aware that what they really want to see is my wallet rather than myself. Since they both have been very nice, with great physical features and no rushing attitude, I have been meeting them 2-3 times each already. I was supposed to meet one of them tonight, but at the last minute, he asked me if i could wait until 1 am (instead of our original appointment at 11 pm). As much as I was frustrated, I understood that his goal is to maximize his nightly income. I was indeed planning to bring him and one mamasan to Pullman King Power seafood buffet tomorrow night for a "farewell" dinner. he knows that i have already made a reservation. when i said no i wouldnt be able to wait until 1 am, he stumbled. Then I texted immediately to Jupiter mamasan. Luckily, mamasan was able to send me a boy of my choice from Jupiter promptly. the boy was already in my room within next 15 minutes. He has a handsome face and muscular body, but I was not prepared to see an appendage with a few foreign bodies embedded underneath the skin. he turned out to have a cheerful personality. he was able to make me forget the other guy who did not keep his promise... sometimes things happened for a reason.

I havent been to any other massage place yet except Sabaidee since its guys have been keeping me busy ever since after i was introduced to that place by my senior member here. though quite big and not easy to fill, i've been trying to follow his exact footsteps. on my first visit to Sabaidee, i felt a bit quite uncomfortable to put my face down on the pillow and sheets. Adding to this, the sheet appeared to be used already, soiled with oil. I exchanged contacts with the guy and also with mamasan. Since then I've been using outcall services only - not completely taking away the risks of infection, but at least i would trust hotel sheets than Sabaidee's.

Tawan bar is not open yet. I went there last Friday just to realize that it is supposed to have opening this week. I will have already been back to the reality then, sadly. I went to Jupiter last night on January 2nd Sunday. No more admission fee. The place was empty.. there was only one other customer ahead of me, and i was the second one.. got all the attention by head mamasan. I showed him a picture of a handsome cambodian guy that i received from a forum member here and inquired about him. he said the guy is in Cambodia now and has no plan so far to come back here. Just a few minutes before the guys' parade, a group of 4-5 customers came in. There was a total of only 7 guys last night - all half naked, showing off their awesome torsos. As usual no smiles on their faces, but most put effort to make eyes contact. selfish thought to myself -- less competition was a huge advantage. no XX customer at all! While I showed no interest in any of them, mamasan showed me a few pictures of other guys who were not on site last night, but he said he could call if i liked any. Then all of the sudden, a ray of sunshine appeared at the entrance - it was a twunk with a broad smile on his face- clean cut in his street clothes -running late for the parade. without any hesitation, i asked mamasan to bring him to me. after exchanging a few words with the help of google translate, i came to realize that he's from Chiang Mai. no surprise why he has such a fair, smooth and spotless skin. within next few minutes, i found him and myself walking back to my hotel along Thaniya - nice and quiet - under the yellow neon lights.

that’s where all the important conferences usually start.

i feel obligated to follow what i am being told. so i decided to burn extra calories in bed and sofa instead.

i will be your first client. Crowne plaza has a small fitness room but it is quite small and packed with no ventilation. as per suggestion by a local friend, i went to Celebrity Fitness gym at Samyan (?) mall this afternoon. they dont have any plan for a short term use. the shortest i could purchase would be for 4 months, i was told.

….. to burn some calories?

Then no other time could be better than now. you could get the whole Ayutthaya to yourself. only a handful of visitors at most famous places i went yesterday with the exception of Wat Phanan Choeng where there were a lot of locals paying homage.

Today i went to Ayutthaya with a local friend by train. it was such an experience. more details to come ….

My third trip to LOS during this pandemic in 2021/22 Despite a lot of anxieties and uncertainties before the trip, it turned out to be pretty enjoyable so far. My test and go stay at center point silom was excellent. i had a chance to reunite and hang out with one of our well known forum members on this side of the world again after two years. the guys i have met so far were proofs to confirm that i made a right decision to come here despite this pandemic. even ?Natty gems (that famous money exchanger next to Raya hotel) gave me a small gift. this pandemic seems to have made some people more anxious, but others more appreciative and down to earth. more to come……

He is the BEST!!!!

Center Point Silom River View Touch down at 11:15 pm Airport pick up by a private nice sedan Check in around 12:30 am Swab test taken at 12:40 am Result became available around 2 pm US $150 for a spacious room with balcony, a kitchenette and even a washing machine inside the room. Food was pretty ok. All towels were brand new. I have never felt that clean inside any hotel room (even at those so called 5 stars) on the other side of the world. Everything was suspiciously clean and spotless. no AUNTS!!!!! Very well run, very well organized and nice - 5 Star from me. Highly recommended. I was also impressed by how well the whole process was run. i was swabbed and all set in my own hotel room within 90 minutes from the touch down. The fastest I have ever experienced.

…. warm and lively, hot and wet

They must be really lucky to wake up to this everyday in the month of december.

if my shifu says so. But they dont care to reply my emails at all. ☹️

I just got these pictures from a local friend. According to a review on agoda site, i have been aware that there is some renovation work going on at Raya hotel, but it didnt sound like a major one. now these pictures make me wonder if there is gonna be noise issue for the guests. i have sent emails to the hotel (one directly to the hotel and one through agoda) but so far no reply. has anyone stayed there recently?

it looks like Babe is gonna be there at hotmale. But i have kind of lost interest in him since his face looks very different now. also his body seems to have toned down.

If i have listened to @vinapu, my Shifu, i wouldnt have to spend ~ $50 for AXA insurance, ~ $10 for skype and i could have saved multiple visits to thai pass site for status check. now i am having a collection of 3 approved thai pass’es in my hand Lesson learned - always listen to Shifu’s here on this forum. 😍

was it typo by any chance? If not it sounds incredibly cheap.

It took me exactly 7 days (including the weekend) for my Thai Pass application to be approved. Since I live in a state where there is no such a thing yet as QR code for COVID vaccine certificate (yes we dont participate in CDC's VAMS system if anyone wonders), I just submitted screen shots of my CDC white card vaccine certificate. everything on the card is handwritten except stickers of the vaccines' lot/batch number. Regarding the health insurance, I just used my current local one.. i thought i'd just wait and see what happened since i still had a little more than two weeks before my trip. That time, i didnt realize that we needed a dedicated confirmation letter from a hotel for our one night quarantine stay. so i just submitted a screen shot of my booking confirmation from agoda site. It took me about only 10 min or so on my little phone screen and i got the confirmation email immediately with the receipt number. My anxiety kicked in after 3 days or so ... then I decided to submit another application with more prepared documents including a confirmation letter from Furama Silom for the test and go program. My first application was submitted around 2 pm EST on a Monday and when the status said still "Reviewing" on Sunday night (Monday morning BKK time), I started making phone calls to the numbers listed on Thai Pass site using Skype. The first question I was asked was my intended departure date. then I was told that i still had more than one week, and it could have been the reason I was told. The staff was quite helpful and she gathered my info including passport number, thai pass application receipt number and my email address etc. Then she said he was going to forward my information to "the officer". I also explained to her there's no way that i could get QR code for my COVID vaccine certificate, also asked her if i would need a Thai insurance plan. She said as long as i have a health insurance that would cover COVID related expenses, I wouldnt need to buy another one. But she urged me to submit another application if i wanted to. So, I decided to submit my third application after I talked to her on Sunday night. This time, I used Adobe fill and sign to put in my passport number and nationality on my vaccine card front page and my info again on the back of the card as well. Also I bought an insurance from AXA thailand (costed me about $45). and i submitted my third application. When the status of my all 3 applications remained "Reviewing" when I woke up on Monday morning, I started to make phone calls to local Thai consulate and started thinking to use an agent's help. Then all of the sudden around 2 pm on Monday, i received an email saying that my application was approved. When i checked it was my very first application, I still have two applications under "Reviewing". the approved one was the one that i submitted using my small phone screen without proper confirmation letter from the hotel etc. the one without a thai insurance.

Many thanks for all your great inputs and expert opinion. When I realized my impulsivity and anxiety, i was a bit too late. Now there is no more available room for Test and Go package at Furama Silom on Agoda anymore. It may pop up later.. I wont be surprised if I am going to be banned by Agoda site soon. I have cancelled so many reservations for this upcoming trip. I blamed it all to lots of unknown and uncertainties though admittedly, most of them were because of my anxiety and impulsivity. One review on the Trinity Silom says "..... my food was eaten by AUNTS ..." Since I dont want to be eaten by AUNTS, I again cancelled my test and go package with them.

Did you have to pay extra for this?
