Travel to Places other then Asia

[Guest abang1961]

Up2u,

I do like your sense of humour.. I may be down with dementia and he, probably dead from exhaustion from too much sex, drugs and booze... isnt it frightened to imagine myself in 30 years' time...still wanting to touch a young man...

300 Euros for an overnight is reasonable enough if he lives up to his reviews.

 

Here are my favorite photos from his ad.

€300 is more than a weeks holiday spending money for me in Thailand so I'd have to pass on that one unfortunately.

I understand but there are other parts of the world where prices are much higher.. For the Western World 300 Euros for an overnight with a well reviewed escort is quite reasonable

The guy is very sexy!  I can't wait to find out how things go.   You must have been really turned on to get him a plane ticket.

Also on 1500 baht a day you would only get 1 drink, 1 boy short time(probably very short)  and maybe you would have enough for an off fee.  But you could not eat and you would have to sleep in the street.

 

So quite a bit of an exaggeration  although I agree prices are not comparable except when you compare them to the USA, Canada etc.

Yes indeed some younger guys ask for huge amounts of money. I met a really handsome 22 yo slim Jamaican twink in my own UK city in a sauna during a Pride weekend. He teased me with his gorgeous ebony body and huge hanging manhood and offered me a short time in his hotel room for £200.00 needless to say I declined his offer. I was temped but then concluded that NO ejaculation is worth £200.00

I find these days that i am lucky to get by on €300 in a day in Pattaya! 

[biguyby]

Excluding the cost of accommodation I live extremely comfortably in Pattaya on less than 1500 baht a day. I don't drink alcohol and rarely go into expensive GoGo bars. Food costs me around 300 - 400 baht a day about 150 baht a day on Dongtan or Silver Sands Hotel Pool at Jomtien Beach Road and maybe 300 baht plus tip for a massage every 3 or 4 days over the month I stay in Pattaya. Maybe an off from a bar once in the trip. Because of health issues most nights I am in bed by 10pm. On my last trip I averaged 900 baht a day spending money and had a really enjoyable time.

[firecat69]

Not sure where you live but I would have no interest in traveling 24+ hours in a silver tube to Thailand unless it was for the maximum number of boys I could do.

 

After 30 or more trips to Thailand, I find the only thing it has.to offer are the cute willing boys at low prices.

 

Restaurants are better and cheaper in the USA. Supermarkets same unless you are into nothing but Thai food which I am not.

 

Roads are way better where I live and for my taste the weather is better. And at over 65 my medical care is basically free which it definitely would not be in Thailand.  My long time friends are all in the USA.

 

But it does in fact have those smooth cute willing boys and so far an endless supply it appears .

Biguyby - Im with you on the £200 Uk rent boy tip, and I don't think this figure is at all unusual. I save my money for my regular Thai trips. I think your budget of 1500 baht per day is serious economy. I probably spend nearly three times this amount and like you my alcohol intake is very limited. Boy tips are a big item as I like one in my bed most nights and Im quite generous.

I suppose bearing in mind the cost of flights and accommodation I could have cheaper sex at home, but like firecat Im addicted to cute Thai boys.

 

In Europe I hear good reports on Prague, which has a vibrant gay scene.

[biguyby]

I don't think it's possible to put a price on what gives us enjoyment. I have a limited budget and always stay within that budget.

 

If being in Thailand on a budget caused me to be unhappy I wouldn't come to Thailand again. I love to travel, I love to see my ex-pat friends in Pattaya and I love the freedom of not having to shop or cook or look after my apartment at home for a month.

 

My last trip in February the highlight was having sex with my beautiful sexy boy from Madagasca.

I had 4 or 5 great massages one massage with a guy who robbed me. I have no desire to have a long time with a guy I lose interest very shortly after I have ejaculated.

 

Edit: because of pre-existing medical conditions my annual medical travel insurance is now over £2000.00 per year which gives me multiple trips of up to 30 days which must start and end in the UK. Otherwise I would spend more than my usual 28 days in Thailand each trip and save on the air fares.

 

Everyone's idea of a good time is different and everyone's circumstances are different.

 

Each to their own.

[firecat69]

I agree with what you say. Everyone has different needs and desires.  Since you are a UK person getting out of the cold and rain is a big benefit of your travel.. Most times the weather is  a negative in Thailand compared to my home.

 

I would love to have that hop skip and a jump plane ride that you have where as mine can be 3x the length depending on connections.

 

I would never be happy coming to Thailand , keeping your schedule  even if money was not a consideration..

 

Thus when traveling other parts of the world , I have much less boy contact and am willing to pay the higher rates for someone special.

 

This trip I am on now will last 35 days and I will see 6 boys and spend approx. $800 US .  The focus of the trip is not SEX and without the overnight I would spend less then $500.

 

My trips to Thailand, the focus is definitely SEX and  I budget 2500 baht a day for expenses related to boys.  My trips are all 30-60 days  the last 5 years to Thailand. 

 

Thus each trip to Thailand I spend anywhere from $2500 - $5000 for just boys .  Taken in that context a splurge of 300 Euros for a boy that meets all my criteria and I can have an intelligent conversation with does not seem exorbitant to me.  Since I don't speak Thai I find it very rare that I can have an intelligent conversation with a Thai money boy.

 

On a daily basis I could not afford such extravagance which I why I continue to make arduous trips to Thailand.  heheheh

Up to about 8 years ago, when I discovered Thailand and Pattaya, I used spend my holidays on the Canary Islands at the resort of Playa del Ingles. There gay life focussed on a section of the beautiful beach and the large area of sun dunes, where gays went for sex despite the efforts of the police. There was an area of bars and clubs called the Yumbo Centre, which was also gay, and where rent boys were available. I found no difficulty in finding young boyfriends, although of course I was better looking in those days. It is only 4.5 hour flight from the UK and accommodation costs are modest. The beach is superb as is the climate.

However Ive never been back since and instead I make an arduous 24 hour journey to Pattaya, where the beach is poor, and the climate is humid and too hot. Why ? - we all know why. THAI BOYS !

Back from Istanbul.

As usual not much time for fun.

Met a local guy I knew from before 2-3 years for 3 hours in the evening on the day I arrived. Then for almost 24 hours on Fri night till early evening Saturday.

First meeting was just romp in bed. Second started with a nice dinner, back to room, out to a club, back to room. Next day late brunch, a bit of sightseeing, back to room. Kind of limited time boyfriend experience plus more sex

$500 total plus meals.

The hotel was in Levent - more of a business area with easy access to the touristy stuff. No problem with taking him to the room and spending a night. Hotel staff are discreet. The hotel is a 5* international chain - remember having to pay a receptionist at a Turkish owned hotel a few years ago for the guest to visit me. Use metro rather than taxi whenever possible - traffic is horrible.

don't even try in future to complain that 4000 baht long time is excessive amount of money.

 

By the way , Istanbul for me is most fascinating European city, beating easily Rome, Paris and what is it's name, London

I agree - Istanbul IS fascinating. Waterfronts add to the attraction. I get tired of local food quickly thouhg. Never get tired of Thai. And have you ever caught me complaining about prices in Thailand? I promise not going to happen either

[vinapu]

And have you ever caught me complaining about prices in Thailand?

no, but I was trying to get proactive just in case you will

[Guest]

Thailand and some other SE Asia countries have advantages in several areas.

 

Hotel Costs - Decent rooms in the 1000~1500 baht range, maybe less if you search out the best budget places.

Entertainment Cost - Pattaya has long time for 1500 baht, or just slightly more.

 

Entertainment Quality 1. 

Large number of massage shops which offer a good average level of service & all you have to do is walk in through the door to get it.   For comparison, here are some examples of what's on offer in my home country:

Masseur 1:  The 1 hour massage was of poor quality and was over within less than 40 minutes.  No repeat business.

Masseur 2:  Advertises occasionally and has his own website. He's never bothered replying to any of my e-mails, text messages or phone calls, so I have never had a massage there. Considering his location, I would be very surprised if he is booked up solid.  My e-mails ask something like " Hi.   I would like to book a 90 minute massage.   Please could you tell me when you are free?", so that should not set off the alarm bells.

Thailand is so much easier. Walk into a shop & get what is usually a great massage.

 

Entertainment Quality 2

Thailand has proper gogo bars.  In all of Europe, the nearest I have found might be Escape in Prague, where you only get the larger muscular boys & it's not to my liking.

 

Entertainment Quality 3

Thai boys have a great attitude.  They usually provide decent service and are unlikely to try to change their terms or prices once they are in your room -if they do it's in the form of a polite request, rather than harassing the client. 

In Europe there is much more variation.  The best are pleasant honest reliable types who do everything they say they will do, are pleasant to talk to and are delighted to stick to any agreed fee.  The worst are scammers who are unpleasant and have the objective of doing nothing & asking for more than the originally agreed fee just to leave the room.  In 3 cases, I've had to physically eject people from the room. That has never been necessary in Thailand.

[vinapu]

I agree in multiply of 100% with post above and can add only one more thing  : overall SE Asia is  great value for a money.

 

Even if something did not work which happens rarely but it does money wasted or underutilized for that reason is easier to digest.

 

Be it noisy / dirty hotel , underperforming go-go or masseur  not sticking to agreed time   money wasted this way is extremely rare and still it is easier to digest  validating  those long treks in silver tube 10km in the skies.

[Guest LoveThailand]

Yes, hotel prices are a definite advantage in Thailand. Even factoring in a much more expensive air fare it is still a good deal.

So pretty quiet for me in the Boy department. Last 2 weeks in Ireland.  The countryside in Ireland is as beautiful as anywhere in the world.  The people are friendly and we have been blessed with mostly good weather except for some wind on the Cliffs of Mohr.

 

Mostly small towns but last 2 days in Galway which is a pretty good sized city.  I have to say the eye candy has been just spectacular.

 

From wavy hair Irish boys to Blonde short haired jocks it has been some of the cutest boys I have ever seen.

 

Unfortunately they are not on any of the Gay Social Media sites etc.

 

Back to Madrid for 1 night on Saturday where I have a couple of possibilities set up.  We'll see what happens.

 

Next post will be some photos of the Irish countryside!

Green is incredible on those photos

Sorry to hear about the wind, I recommend Boots the chemist, they have tablets that can instantly help with that. :-). And as for the cute guys, well now there's certainly ONE who's one gay social media but it appears he's just s bit further north than where you were :-( Damn, I miss all the good farang coming here for sex tourist holidays :-( lol

 

Although firecat I did think it a little unnecessary that you posted that sex porn pic in your photos, you know the whole sheep on the hillside thing as I thought you already understood that what happens in Ireland STAYS in Ireland !! :-(

 

And vinapu - yes Ireland, both North and South tend to do that green thing VERY well, you should come visit sometime, I'll even buy you a beer and hook you up with a hot sheep for the night if you're lucky :-)
