Thanks for the report @vinapu! I am hoping to get back to BKK and Chiang Mai in March. My first trip to LOS was January 2020 - right before Covid hit properly. I was in Chiang Mai for Chinese New Year and it was just starting to become a major thing. 

I found the scene in Chiang Mai to be really poor but I did hook up with a local student. We had an amazing few days, he was not a money boy, we hooked up on an app and we are still in regular contact. When I am back in March (all fingers crossed) we will hook up again.....

nice try, you will not see any. Not that I took plenty as I generally don't take my guys pics and those few I took all were under condition 'for my eyes only'

Day 14

 

I went for breakfast alone as my companion was deep asleep and I did not have a heart to wake him up neither was willing to wait as I was hungry. When he opened eyes  we had few romantic moments before he went away collecting his tip plus 100 baht I gave him to buy something for breakfast he missed. I was quite lazy morning and afternoon for me as to prove my theory that too comfortable hotel room prevents us from going out.

It was only 3p.m. when I left and trekked to Sukhumvit soi 43 to Jey Spa. Last time I was there they were still in old, soi 41 location. Jey Spa is not easy to find as is no sign  so it’s handy to remember number  14/6 .

part of townhouse with closed gate is where Jey Spa is

 

You will see shoes in front otherwise unassuming townhouse . I was asked about appointment but I had none as it’s not really my style  , I like to try my luck. Three guys were available , all handsome, tall  and muscular but as almost always I went for one who smiled . Ken / Mac 2 , he uses both nicks with number 2 as there are other guys with the same nicks in the shop he explained. Chiang Mai native so we had point to start conversation since  I just returned from there. Hour and half massage 900, minimum  tip 1500 I was informed  and up we went to a quite nice and spacious room.

Massage was  good and very professional and afters were not initiated until massage part was done.  Great encounter, worth repeat and LT option investigation but  I had other plans for today so took with me only great and sweet memory.

Straight from there I went to Sabaidee for reunion with T after week being away from Bangkok. This time I went only for 1 hr session as I was well massage already and we had plans to throw another party at the shop tonight. What nicely surprised me , it turned out that for 1 hr. massage he has quite different   routine than for longer term and  I enjoyed that change.

I gave him some money,  few boys went to purchase meat for barbecue, others were sent to buy a case or two of Chang and soon good time was had by all, including lady who are working there as cleaner, later rewarded with 500 tip just for being nice, after all Christmas is near, no?

Out of few boys tasked with meat preparation I noticed one particularly skilled nicked Tata. It was obvious he knows what to do and enjoyed it. Later on,  when we seat together he revealed he was cook in Thai restaurant in Amsterdam for  few years and it showed. It was great night, perhaps even greater then first one as we knew each other bit better and no, there was nothing sensual or erotic , just normal  eat , drink and be merry gathering.  I learned a lot about their lives and they asked about mine.

There was new boy , not seen last time , who admitted openly he was a gay, not that it  shocked anybody. His name is Soviet, which sounded bit familiar and I’m not talking about historical and political stuff. Anyways as night was drawing , bottles ,  plates and my pocket emptying   at one point it was time to go home.

Since farang i.e. me seemed quite drunk and rightly so guys tasked Soviet with delivering me home. Sure I was drunk but not that drunk not to ask if he will stay with me till morning assuring him that while my pockets are almost empty , I have some compensation funds in my room available. So we were packed into called taxi , waved good bye and went home.

It needs to be said that I don’t remember much of how day 14 finished  but it finished anyways with me falling asleep literally in Soviet embraces. Perhaps  even my last thought was ‘ easy money tonight for you Mr. Soviet”

no idea but quite possible. I was in Lucky boys perhaps 2 times only and don't recall him there but it means nothing.

Tattoed , well built and bit hairy for Asian

I've just enjoyed catching-up on these experiences, particularly the ones in Chiang Mai where P and I are probably at our happiest.

I've just read about Adam's Apple....it must have been very disappointing. Exactly the same thing happened to me  many years ago before P and I were together.

I'd booked up Lotus, the gay hotel opposite where I'd stayed on numerous occasions, to be near AA, only to find that it was closed for renovation. The CM venues tend to be spread-out and I was devastated but I fell on my feet in one of the two bars in a soi  just down the road and met-up with a guy who'd just returned form his monkhood stint. One of my idiosyncrasies is a preference for short-haired, shaved guys!

Really cute and charming.... more my type than the Shan guys who were said to be dominant at AA.

That's the great thing- one of the great things- about gay Thailand; the next attractive and willing  guy is always just around the corner. The unexpected joy always awaits.

I miss it badly!

Day 15

7 a.m.  in the morning next day was one of most memorable hour in my entire life. I opened eyes, sober already but not quite present yet, turned and I saw something beautiful – naked muscular semi-god sleeping on his stomach right beside me, perky , round butt up. Stuff dreams are made of, right. Sure , fast I recalled what is going on but pleasure of that surprise will live on with me  for long time. Always gentleman I quietly went to the bathroom trying not to disturb his well deserved sleep but soon he knocked door and joined me in the shower. We had a bit to catch on and we did so his tip had some merit

And it was very pleasant morning, then breakfast and he left as he was supposed to  report to work. As soon as he left , moment of enlightenment dawned on me. Soviet , boy  few years ago I was sitting with at Dreamboys Pattaya  and next day found him as masseur at Royal House there.  He was great guy to extend I even recommended him to one of our members. Yesterday he mentioned Dreamboys but somehow I did not connect dots. It seems world is small, what a reunion !

Another lazy, luxury room oiled day. At 3.30 p.m.  I was expecting T who showed on the dot, messaged me from the parking and we went to MahaNakhon as I promised yesterday to take him there. It short walk from hotel. Visibility was great again, he was bit reluctant to step on the glass but finally he braved in. as most boys I took there he was more interested in taking pictures than admiring spectacular after all, view. Of course I showed him famous 74 floor washroom with the view and there was where he smiled.

After that we had a meal in one of restaurants by Chong Nonsi station, task he seemed more interested in than just completed  visit in the skies and than I asked if he wants to see my  stamp collection and instant approval indicated that it was move he expected as he gave me even time frame. So off we went to have a good time , he even tried my glasses. It was dark when he left. Warmed up I went to Jupiter, had a drink there and after hour I left. Few customers , strange  format with guys in the shadows after half hourly parade, I think I’m really biased against that bar and never feel it’s my place even if boys there are all prime beef, boyfriend , husband and son-in-law material. Perhaps I’m not and it’s why am not so enthusiastic. Readers please ignore my grumbling , it’s great bar with great staff , it’s just me who doesn’t feel at home there like in other bars like HotMale , my next destination.

I caught with the show , today three Monlight models only present –Tum, Nicky and Smart with notable absence of Babe and Nut. There was big c*-**k show with 4 participants, things are getting back to normal. Somehow still I went home empty handed , walked around Silom and Patpong and headed home where even if sober I collapsed to empty bed right away. I think subconsciously I realized that today is end of my second week and normally it would be night when I’m heading to the airport to return home. So day 15,  so memorably started,  was over.

Day 16    

Lonely night resulted in early waking up and I was one of first people to report for breakfast at hotel restaurant this morning. I swear elderly lady sitting across at the same place she did yesterday had question mark in her eyes    “where’s your boy ?” but since she did not ask, I did not answer.

I had some chores his morning to do and then walked about market in Silom soi 5 , then packed and went to Swampy for my 2^nd trip to Pattaya.

Good timing as bus was leaving in 20 minutes. This time I  decided to stay in more spartan place than last few hotels  , at Zing in Jomtien Complex  but compromise was more on room size not comfort since Zing is very comfortable and at this time quite quiet. On reception I was asked for proof of vaccination and it was only time in 25 day I was actually asked to show it other than at airport on arrival. Since news were building up that Boyztown is returning to life  after I settled I went to Pattaya bit surprised as my baht bus was full like in good old days, even both standing places were occupied.

What I saw was not disappointing, Panorama opened , and in the soi red carpet  spread. What a contrast 1 week made ! Week ago is was just dark , empty and quiet. Since Z909 and me were supposed to dine at Terminal 21  I took quite a walk there, very pleasant as weather was extremely nice this afternoon.  Met Z909  in the food court and we exchanged news about last week over dinner and at dark we took songtaew to Boyztown to see resurrection. Actually  it happened 2 days ago but for me it was first chance. We parked at Panorama to have good view for the show which was supposed to happen in the soi, Now I know what red carpet was for .

Nice surprise , mamasan Aek , one with hat,  recognized me after all those years and shocked me that he remembered I used to take Art for massage. Assured me that art should show at any time  and indeed soon enough he walked , noticed me and made massage sign with his hands . Obviously I was not anonymous visitor any more. Both gentlemen earned red note each and since I had other plans for tonight I exchanged phone numbers with Art and invited him for massage  during day in my room tomorrow.

I did not wait for the show as I was supposed to meet another member, aussie_ in @home bar in Jomtien Complex so I rushed there , parked myself in that bar , asked nice mamas an if he expect Z to return ( he had no idea ) and soon aussie_ showed up for a news exchange.  It was a while since we talked last time so we had a lot to catch on, he also pointed that on the ground floor of View Talay 1 is German restaurant Jurgens serving western fare which was precious information as I started develop fatigue with rice and Thai dishes, missing schnitzel and rye bread.

Much later we parted our ways , agreeing to meet tomorrow in Boyztown . I wanted to get N before his shop will close and shortly I surprised him by showing up , as I suspected week ago he did not believe I will return. 300 off fee and in few seconds we were marching to 7/11 to get some supplies in preparation for reunion which turned up to be quite stormy. No wonder , 1 week is a looooong time and we felt reunion needs to be celebrated in style .  So day 16 was ending with well deserved sweat and short breath.

You are right we must protect privacy of the boys ,I don't think the boys will be happy to see their pictures all over this thread , Moreover it's not others business to know who we met in private. 

[Travellerdave]

Nice to hear that Zing is open and that you found it confortable. Before the pandemic it had become my favourite hotel in Pattaya. I used to like the useful size pool where I often relaxed with my boyfriends du jour.

Interesting that you took the airport bus to Jomtien where the terminus is close to the Complex and the Zing hotel. I remember pulling my bag along the uneven pavement from the bus after the long 24 hour journey from home but happy to have arrived. For me the bus is good and a lot safer than in the high speed taxis weaving about in the traffic.

What is striking me again and again is how good memory Thai people have they can remember exactly who you are and what you did things that I forgot long time ago, the most shocking  after couple of years returning to one of the restaurants at Pattaya beach the lady there recognised me and remember exactly what I like to order for breakfast.realy amazing.

[ggobkk]

I think it is appropriate after so many daily reports to pause, relish Vinapu's ability to put us in the heart of things, and be grateful for his reminding us that what he was enjoying is exactly what we remember and look forward to soon.

Thanks.

 

PS Nice to know  you joined the ranks for farangs who are supportive shoppers and phone buyers.

[Londoner]

Yes,  all the front-line reports are much appreciated. And much needed, in this dreary, dark and chilly January in London.

That must be a metaphorical London, as the one I am in today is bright and sunny not a literal cloud in the sky! Cold though!

Vinapu you deserve platinum trophy for your reports and golden badge for stimulating thai economy!
