Popular Post GoldMember Posted March 8, 2022 Popular Post Posted March 8, 2022 When entering Israel, all passengers get tested in TLV airport upon arrival and must quarantine until they get their results. That is perfect time for me to start writing. Intro – 8th trip report (and 8th visit) to my favorite city in the world. 37yo Israeli. Last trip was for the White Party of New Year’s Eve 2020 with my husband. I remember that before we flew to BKK on the end of Dec 2019, reports were starting to come about some virus in China. I couldn’t imagine back then that this virus will make me separate from BKK for such a long time. More than 2 years and 4 Pfizer vaccines later I booked this solo long weekend, to see if even after Covid changed a lot in the world, the BKK magic is still there. And it is still there 😊 Bureaucracy – Once I booked my first night directly (Grand Hyatt Erawan) and got the authorization I submitted all documents online and Thai pass was approved in less than 24 hours. Since this trip was exactly 5 days, I did not need a second PCR. And also, they now dropped the second test anyways. I found the whole procedure friendly and fast. Flight – One of the unfortunate results of Covid is of course the chaos of booking flights. We used to have 3(!) TLV-BKK direct flights a day. Now we have once a week, and 3 times a week TLV-HKT (Phuket) -BKK. None of the direct options suited my very specific flight schedule requirements so I booked Turkish Airlines with an Istanbul connection (650 USD). This is a 14 hour journey with the main leg being over night which is exactly one of my firmest requirements of a flight to BKK. A couple of days before the flight, when the probability of me actually taking that flight was high, I found that business class fare declined dramatically so I upgraded (Additional 1600 USD). The TLV-IST leg in both directions was a full flight and the IST-BKK flight was half full in both directions. Flights were great, slept great and woke up refreshed. Suvarnabhumi was kind of empty and I was out in no time. Hotel – Grand Hyatt Erawan (9400 THB test & go package with fast PCR) – Not my preferred location. Hotel lacks character but they did supply the only thing that I really wanted them to – a really fast PCR result. On my way to the hotel, we stopped by Medpark Hospital for a drive thru test – 16:18 was the swab time. At 17:41 the phone rang with the negative results. They did what they promised they would and that was great. They were also very generous with a 4PM checkout time to match my next hotel check in. Breakfast was OK. After that I went for a stroll in Silom. Soi 4 seemed pleasantly crowded. Some places closed; others opened instead. All and all, I was surprised to see a lively scene, not far from the way it used to be. I enjoyed my walking thru the different streets and venues and waited for 22:30 for the show at Tawan to start. Tawan was a sad place that Thursday night. As some photos here show, it is forth of its original size – and the stage has almost no accessories or decorations. Actually, that night there was not even a show, just 4 guys going up and down the stage for an audience of 3 people. Guys on stage are not my type, some are off season, some are in no season, but as Vinapu said – it only takes one guy. And that guy was there – I think his name was Nut but I’m not sure. A Lean bodybuilder classic type. I didn’t want to leave Silom as I wanted to party later that night so it was coinvent that they offered a room. 2800 THB later (500 off, 300 room, 2K for the guy) and we were at their room which was descent enough for the muscle worship session I wanted. He supplied it to the max and I left there very happy for myself but sad for that establishment. I do think/hope that they will improve as more and more tourists come. After that went to DJ station, which was not full as it used to be but also not empty. Music there is still shit 😊. GOD was closed that night which disappointed me but I knew it would open for the weekend so I called it a night. Will continue soon. vinapu, TMax, tm_nyc and 21 others 23 1 Quote

I love to cum by fucking the thighs of the bodybuilder as he lays down on his back, attaches them togeher and let me fucks as my dick is fractioned by his muscular thighs. He supplied all that experience in a perfect way. 5 hours ago, orson said: It might be Nop if the guy you're referring to is a shorter guy. Yassss I think that's him! orson, Lonnie and vinapu 3 Quote

Popular Post GoldMember Posted March 10, 2022 Author Popular Post Posted March 10, 2022 Day 2. Woke up late at Grand Hyatt Erawan. After breakfast I asked for a late checkout and they gave me a 4PM checkout without hesitation. It is probably also a byproduct of the hotel still being in medium capacity. Went to CentralWorld only to discover they closed all Coffee Bean branches in BKK. I like the big department store in CentralWorld that used to be called Zen and is now called Central. It's same prices as home but with lots of Asian brands we don't have back home. Bought my husband a backpack that he wanted and carried on my way back to hotel for checkout. W Hotel - I only stayed the first night at the Hyatt for the fast “get out of jail” card. Rest of the nights I wanted to spend at Silom. I Usually stay at the Meridien but I wanted to diversify since hotel prices were the cheapest I ever saw in BKK. I booked a studio suite at W for a total of 750 USD for 3 nights. I used rewards that I have so didn't actually pay but the fact is that this room in this hotel usually costs more than double. I booked that room specifically since I had a naughty fantasy with that tub which will be fulfilled in my first night there. Hotel was great and they gave me a free 6PM(!) checkout which is something I never got for free before. After checking in, I had coffee with an old friend from previous trips and after that I wanted a massage. Arrived to Silom Plaza's Arena just to discover that they don't serve the dish that I'm after. And by that I refer to Asian muscle. By Vinapu and Andy's recommendations I took a motor taxi to Sabaideespa. 4 guys on display, one of them suits my needs, I think his name was Jack. For the first time, following Vinapus advice, I go for 90 mins. I got the whole 90 mins. Massage was fun, playful and that guy was with a very high conscious of giving good service. I left that place very happy. What I failed to mention so far is that one of my main motivations to come to BKK was to meet someone from a past trip. In a previous trip report, I named him V (after his perfect V shaped torso) and we met at the White Party of 2018. This is a link to the over detailed full report of that trip, but in short, I'll say he is a fun guy to party with, we have a good connection, and his body makes me extremely weak at my knees. Some more background: after meeting in January 2018, we kept in touch online for about a year. Then he suddenly blocked me without explanation. Social media did show he had a boyfriend and I assumed that for some reason that is the reason he blocked me. Fast forward to mid-2021 after he and his BF broke up he texts me apologizing for his behavior with some explanations that sounded ridiculous to me but honestly, I did not care that much, I was happy that he contacted and waited for the right time to meet him again. I asked him to stay with me at nights and made sure he understands that during the days I'll be out without him and that he can do whatever he wants. Back at the W after my massage I wait for V to finish his work and come to my hotel. We meet at the lobby. I'm not surprised to see that he looks exactly the same. He's a classic case of - I'm not sure what I want more, to look like him or to fuck him, but at least I got one of the two. After we make out in the room, and after some talking, he wanted to shower and it was the perfect timing for me to fulfill one of my fantasies. One of the main reasons I chose to get a higher-class room was the tub. I imagined us in the tub together, him on me when I hug him from behind and soap his body. And that fantasy was exactly what happened. I was pleased that I accomplished to manifest an image I had in my mind, and after that we were both hungry and go to Soi 4’s Mexican restaurant to have a reasonable dinner. Although he offers to pay every taxi, restaurant or party we attend, I never let him. Money was never a part of the relationship between us but I know he struggles for his salary and for me paying on these expenses is easy and appreciated. From dinner we head straight to GOD. Everything is similar as it was in 2018 - he is extremely fun and sexy to party with. On that Friday GOD was not full but had a nice amount of people. Music is awesome, smoking is thankfully but ridiculously still allowed. We dance exactly the same way we did four years ago. V is an attention seeker and he wants to dance shirtless, at the mezzanine of the club, where everyone sees him, and the guy touching him and holding him from behind, which was yours truly. That guy knows how to party and I love clubbing with him. At 1:20 AM the lights turn on. That's way earlier than it used to be, but V says I'm not allowed to complain and instead just be thankful that it reopened. V who is still high, wants to go to a private after party. I don't and promise him we will go tomorrow and that tonight I want him for myself. We arrive at the room, then as it was in the past, we argue who is sex DJ tonight. V likes shitty circuit music and I like deep house. We have it my way that night and have a sex night. Our sex is in different rhythms each night, and tonight was softer and more passionate. We go to sleep exhausted and satisfied at about 5AM. Time zone wise, I deliberately wanted to go to sleep each night somewhere between 4AM to 6AM so that on the one hand I stay at Israeli Time zone, and on the other hand we don't miss hotel breakfast yp11, vaughn, TotallyOz and 19 others 21 1 Quote

Popular Post GoldMember Posted March 12, 2022 Author Popular Post Posted March 12, 2022 Day 3 We woke up by my alarm at 10:15AM. V asked me to set up the alarm so that we don't miss breakfast. When presented with a buffet, V eats for an entire family. Given the fact that we have 10 mins to stock up with food he piles up several plates and actually eats them. Breakfast at W is good. After that, I said my goodbye to V, told him I'll be back in the room by 9PM and that he is welcomed to do whatever he wants. He had his own key to the room. I have a friend from my time at the army that in recent years lives in Koh Phangan. I told him I'm coming to BKK and he said he will come too to enjoy the city and see me. We met at Yunomori Onsen & Spa at Sukhumvit. It's a really nice place to hang out, chill and facilities are in great condition. I thought I'll get bored but actually I really enjoyed that heterosexual experience of being naked among other men in an environment that Is relatively non sexual. Nonetheless, I was also surprised that there was some eye candy there. Several hours later, we go for Ramen and I tell him I'll meet him tomorrow as I have other business to attend to in the Sukhumvit area. He knows what I mean by that. I try to avoid the Sukhumvit area since it's jammed, far, and heterosexual but if already there, I knew I had to check the neighborhood's product quality. And by that, I mean Krubb Sauna. But before I review Krubb it must be said – Babylon is missed. Its absence was prominent during this trip. It's not that I don't like the other local saunas – I think they are great. But Babylon was something else. It was a different product. In Babylon, me being white was an advantage. Most people there were foreigners looking for foreigners or Asians looking for foreign men. I don't feel that my race is a disadvantage in the local saunas, but it is not an advantage. I know it can be argued that the local saunas are more Asian for Asian but I don’t feel that way. I do think that in the local saunas, rejection is commonly misinterpreted by white people as rejection by race. I think it's mere rejection, which is rarely based on race. Anyways, in addition, the level of facility in Babylon was nothing to be compared to the other saunas. I hope that a decent place that tries to enter that specific niche will pop up soon. RIP Babylon, I did a lot of sodomy in your premises. Arrived at Krubb sauna at 6PM on a Saturday eve. Staff were welcoming and friendly and explained that it's naked month and towels are provided only for showering. I loved that, and especially the enforcement of that policy as they kept enforcing that rule inside the compound and not only at the locker rooms. Facilities are high standard and well maintained. Compound has several levels which can be quite tiring and it's the same in the other local saunas I've been too in the past (R3, Chakran, Mania). Place is nicely full with about 100 men, me being the only white guy. The common dish that is served that night is Asian Twink and Asian Twunk which is not my favorite but it is something I can work with and I have my share of fun. An hour later I find one that is my type, and play with him. He asks me if I'll stay for the party which I was unaware of, but I already knew that when they say in the local saunas "party" they mean orgy. I tell him I'll probably stay and he tells me to come find him at the party. At 8PM, about 100 men went to a single 40SQM room at that place. My Covid conscious told me to get the fuck out of that room but my dick told me to stay. In Thailand I mostly listen to my dick. At home I am able to do more negotiation between the two 😊. In that room I spot my guy from before and realize he is part of the entertainment of the event. I come to see him, we have our public fun and I leave. All and all that place was fun, entertaining, well maintained. I leave and get back to the room where V is already waiting for me to go out for dinner. We go out for dinner at Soi 4 in the place opposite to the Mexican place and have another mediocre, reasonable dinner. From there we move on to GOD again. It's a full house that night (But still less than pre Covid), and parting with V was similarly great till lights turned on again at 1:20AM. This time I knew V would insist on an after party so I mentally prepared for a long night. You may be fooled by the term "after party" to thinking that it is a party with people dancing. If it was, I'd be more inclined on going, but it was a chem-sex party. Which means less party, more drugs and sex – which is a combo that is not a turn on for me. Anyways, we go, it is in a beautiful luxury penthouse at a very high tower. I suspect that there is an informal contract between the owner and some of the hot attendees – they come and play at his party – he supplies the drugs. Some of the more dangerous drugs are on the menu that night, but V stays with E and G. I don't even drink alcohol there, as I don't feel that it is a safe environment. V and I play, he takes more drugs and by that also he is more awake and energetic. At 3:30 AM we start negotiation on leaving time. I want 4, he wants 5, we leave at 4:30 AM for some more private fun. V knows that I'm a huge fan of oil play and he surprised me with a large Jar of Coconut oil for that night's fun. Bed is soaked with oil when we go to sleep at 6AM. TMax, reader, AlexThompson and 12 others 14 1 Quote

BKK is not different than any other gay capital of the world and substances use are strongly tied up with nightlife and sex. Especially in the gay scene but not limited to the gay scene. Although yours truly avoids drugs (except minor alcohol consumption), I do find it almost impossible not to find myself in situations where people do drugs considering the fact that I do enjoy the nightlife scene and the nightlife crowd. So, I try to develop an indifferent approach to most recreational drug use. V, for example, has indeed a substance use disorder, I'm sure of that and also told him that. But, he's in denial and that's his life. Usually in Grindr it's easy to see how much drug use and sex is common with lots of offers for High Fun. It's prominent in BKK as it is in TLV, BER, AMS, PAR, LND or NYC. It's everywhere and I try to navigate life without using it but also not denying myself from experiences that usually involve people using it. The real problem in the gay scene is crystal meth (also called Ice, T or Tina). Usually when that's on the menu of people I hang out with, then I take a step back. T is getting more common in my home city as it also gets more common in BKK. It is highly common in European capitals and the USA. This trip I was near it in more situations than I recall in my previous trip . And that is indeed the really sad news cause crystal meth is in the league of the highly addictive, deadly, life ruining drugs next to Heroine. reader, Ryanqqq, Patanawet and 6 others 8 1 Quote

Which hotel do you prefer Le Meridien or the W? W is a better hotel. No doubt about it. But, Meridien's location is better and it is good enough. Even having a 7/11 just opposite to it is pricless. W resembles So Sofitel in the manner that when you go out, there is nothing outside and you either need to walk some time or taxi. They are both "better" than Le Meridien. But Location, Location, Location. Next trip I'll probably return to Le Meridien. Ryanqqq, TotallyOz and fedssocr 3 Quote
Popular Post spoon Posted March 13, 2022 Popular Post Posted March 13, 2022 Im totally against drugs and tried to advocate that with the boys im with. Luckily so far, most of the boys i take fancy dont do drugs, or not that i know of. Sadly, some did. One actually shows some sort of withdrawal symptoms the night we were together, albeit mild. He did ask if i have ice.. No idea out of desperate needs or what since ive never give any indication that im into chem fun. On a second ocassion, a diff boys asked me if its okay for him to try drug with a diff customer. Apparently a customer is offering him chem sex for more money and i told him what i think of it. I advise him not to do it, but he said he already did it... And like it. I told him whats the danger of drugs etc, the whole thing i think he should know, and hope he listen. Apart from these, im pretty sure some of the guys i like took some sort of viagra to perform, as well as those bodybuilder taking steroids for diff reason. vinapu, reader, Ryanqqq and 2 others 5 Quote
vinapu Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 I count myself among those who never had to do with buy being know user or behaving as such. If that would happen be trying to get rid of company ASAP under any pretext. Once at BBB Inn I was witness to commotion created in the room beside mine, by most likely drugged guest. Boy escaped screaming so I learned the lesson to stay away from users. One of our members once pointed at one of guys at Screwboys and warned me about him being user but he was not my type . Since I'm HongThong user , I hope that doesn't count as drug. reader, TotallyOz, billyhouston and 1 other 4 Quote
Guest Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 I know a couple of lads who use poppers, but I suspect these are at the mild end of the spectrum. It's been several years since I met someone who was likely to be using other drugs. That was a lad at Dreamboys Pattaya, who seemed to have massive fluctuations in mood & energy levels. The previous example was from Eros, many years ago. He needed to go to his room, so I accompanied him to this rather basic residence, in Sunee, upstairs opposite where the few remaining bars operate. When he was prepping the "Ice", along with his 2 room mates, I decided it was time to leave. Quote

caeron Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 I'm not judging others on their drug use, just that I'm personally uncomfortable being around it. It might tempt me to return to the folly of my youth. Of course, given that I couldn't stay up that late, I think there is little risk of that! 😆 GWMinUS and vinapu 1 1 Quote
TotallyOz Posted March 13, 2022 Posted March 13, 2022 I do not judge others for their drug use or lack of drug use. Any adult can decide for themselves what they wish to do and no one should condemn others for their choices that do not affect them. That said, I have two rules for guys I date (not short times). 1. No lying 2. No drugs I have never felt comfortable with drugs as I have watched it destroy too many of my exes. For a long term relationship, it is not something I'll tolerate. However, for someone that is only short time, it is totally up to them. I have had guys in Brazil and Thailand that are into X, coke, etc. and as long as they don't do it in my room, it is up to them. Quote
