outch, I thought the SAME thing....maybe behind that gayguides.com nik = Zipper --> is Ben Stiller ?

wow - I love the translations on that noodle menu: Crazy hard, super hard, etcetra.... Ask your guy if these hard adjectives can also be used to describe someone's state of excitement? 🍆

Almost exactly what happened to me, when I arranged my first 7 days of traveling together with Woody and his partner Non. I had specifically told Woody when making the plans for this trip that the MOST important part of the to-be trip was to cross over into Myanmar. Well, that day arrived - perhaps it was back in 2013 or 2014 - I wrote a previous trip report about this - and when we got to the exit Thailand gate - Woody was told that if he crossed with me that he would not be allowed back into Thailand - as Woody was still a refugee from Myanmar (now he is all legal with proper documents to live in Thailand). Woody insisted that I cross over anyway - but I would not go without my precious Woody. So, still to date, I have not yet entered into Myanmar - and like most of us here - wee are waiting for this never ending Myanmar conflict to end. Woody saw how saddened that I was and he surprised me by taking me to that exact same point where you can overlook into Myanmar (this was before they built the glass Sky Walk overlook) AND Woody invited one of his friends who lives in that Myanmar border town = Tachileik to cross over into Thailand and join us for lunch up on the overlook - so that this Myanmar guy could explain to me about what we could visibly see in Tachileik. We were originally supposed to eat lunch with this guy in Tachileik and he would give us a tour. So, in lieu of our original Myanmar plan, I was still very happy and appreciative. And, how could anyone be angry with adorable Woody.....

Vinapu - please show us a photo of your "protector on bare feet".... I am very curious as to what they look like. Us readers may also want to use this technique.... or is it patented like the Vinapu Tuck....

I am sure that it would be hysterical. Because the ladyboy caught me off-guard as I was crossing from the beach side of the Dongtan beach walkway to the security entrance to my condo complex. At first, I thought that she was one of my Thai boyfriend's many ladyboy friends so I was in a "friendly nice to see you state of mind...", but then I quickly realized that I did not know this ladyboy - she was very pretty - but she was very aggressive about "acquiring some business..." - so, I whipped out my ---- NO - stop what you are thinking - I quickly whipped out my security gate FOB so I could quickly get into the condo complex before she was able to get off of her motorbike...... Then I stared back just to make sure that she did not have her own FOB key - as I learned that many of the local money boys here in Jomtien have their own FOB keys. In fact, I wanted extra FOB keys for my occasional guests and I asked to my real estate agent and at the Juristic Office and both of them told me that there were no more FOB keys available. But this being Thailand - creative solutions are always available - so, someone told me about this FOB key duplication shop over near Tukcom and you just give them one of your existing FOB keys and he reads the signal from your FOB key and makes you a duplicate. Amazing Thailand!!! So, so much for feeling safe.....

I can leave you and your guy in the hands of my boyfriend - as I am sure that he would enjoy to be a "tour guide" for the soi 12 adventure.... Just realize that it is an expansive beach area with pockets of guys sitting on their beach mats and/or portable beach chairs sitting, drinking, and chatting. Some of them play volleyball off and on throughout the night. Also, for purposes of your Vietnamese guy - there is also the gay Dongtan beach volleyball, which starts daily about 30 minutes prior to sunset and goes until around 9pm to 10pm.

I am like you. What you described would be so perfect and enjoyable for me. By the way, this Japan trip report is excellent - as going to Japan is high on my eventual bucket list.

Yes. He does this almost everyday. Last night we went out together to chat at a bar in Supertown to see some of my farang friends - as many of what I put into the category of: seasonals --> are all starting to return back to their home countries, after being back in Thailand for their seasonal 4 to 5 months. This means that the transition to "low season" from "high season" is now underway. Around 12:30am I walked my boyfriend to the Jomtien Beach Road and kissed him goodbye as he went south, first to soi 4, as it was still too early to go to soi 12 - as it does not fill up until all of the boys who work in the Jomtien Complex (aka Supertown) send us to bed around 2 am when the Complex closes and then a large proportion of the Complex head over to Jomtien soi 12 for their "after work" nightime fun, where volleyball is one of their entertainment options. I can always join him - but I am usually too tired to go and enjoy myself. If there is a "special" ocassion and I need to go there - I will take a 2 hour "power nap" beforehand to help me get through the night. On those ocassions, I would need to skip going to Supertown and do my power nap. I headed north into the Dongtan Beach area, where my condo is. A ladyboy rode her motorbike up to me, as I was walking alone, and tried to aggressively solicit me --> so I ran into the security of my condo complex gates for safety. Hahaha While I was sleeping, this morning at 6:37am, my boyfriend wrote me to say goodnight, after returning to his room from the Jomtien soi 12 volleyball beach. He will probably wake up around between 2pm to 4pm.

Hello Welcome to Pattaya. There are many places - especially here in the JOMTIEN area of Pattaya. Here is a link to a list of the many massage places found in the Jomtien Complex (aka Supertown). https://www.gaysupertown.com/massage Soda Massage is the biggest massage shop. But, there are also many other massage shops very close to Soda, as shown in the below map: Enjoy!

Candy Bar Burlesque Show review – 07 March 2025 After my return from 62 days in Cebu, Philippines, and the completion of my USA tax return = hallelujah!! It is time for some FUN!!! I ask my Thai boyfriend to get us a reservation to see the Friday night show – which as per the below weekly program schedule – meant that we would see the Burlesque Show. I tried to do the booking reservation, but it is difficult if you do not have Facebook. For purposes of this review, my boyfriend shared with me the below FB info page – which should allow you to make a reservation. We did not have any problem initially --> read on… https://www.facebook.com/people/Candy-Bar-Jomtien/61572178823103/ Prior to the show start time at 10:30pm, we go to Dick’s Café for dinner at 8pm. Afterwards, we go to the Sun Bar, which is directly across from the new Candy Bar. It was the birthday of one of the Sun waiters (his name is BOY), and as my Thai boyfriend knows almost everyone in the complex, we are inserted into the birthday festivities, including the addition of our 100 baht bank notes to his birthday garland. Suddenly, my boyfriend orders a whiskey bottle with mixers and ice – I look at my watch and it is only like 9:20pm and I say to him, there is no way that you and I can finish off that – he laughs at me and says, our friends are coming to join us (3 more guys) and we will drink some more after the Candy show back here at the Sun Bar – and he looks at me and says, “they will have dancing inside tonight…..” He knows me all too well – as my main complaint/bitch is that there is nowhere to dance in the Jomtien Complex (aka Supertown). So, how could I dare to say no..... I say to him, please hurry up and run over to the Candy Bar and extend our reservation of 2 to now 5 – as I did not want us to be denied seating. He comes back and tells me mission accomplished. Drinking and waiting at the Sun Bar in anticipation His 3 friends join us, and we all continue to laugh and drink with the Sun Bar birthday guy. 10:15pm arrives and before we know it and we are inside the Candy Bar. Well, my first impression is that this is a serious venture that has wonderful aesthetics, and sound absorption, rendering the place with excellent acoustics. So, the new owners have definitely spent some good money to make this place very enjoyable. Our assigned seats are at the back of the lounge, and they are super comfortable, with firm body supporting cushions – all with that new smell. Immediately, one of the hosts comes over to offer us snacks (nuts, M&Ms, raisons, etc.) to nibble on. Our drink orders are taken by one of the cute waiters who are all dressed in a sexy type of candy stripe muscle t-shirt. I love the optional bandanas that they are wearing as the differentiating factor. Which bandana is your favourite? The bar’s decor is very well thought out – where everything is in a nice shade of pink, with amazing attention to branding, from the drink coasters to coffee cups, to walk fixtures – truly an artsy upscale new addition to the Jomtien Complex (aka Supertown). Eclectic, but in good pink taste, in my opinion.... Show time – the Burlesque show begins with this opening number, “Diamonds in the sky”. There was the all-too-common picture frame skit (we saw this type of skit at The Venue Christmas Show) : And then my 2 favorite numbers were: 1. The Lady and her Tramp…. 1741435936254.mp4 2. Sexy pop my balloon scene – it was hilarious…. 1741436356067.mp4 I do not know how long the above skit will last because that sexy balloon guy gives the audience a rather large pin to pop his balloons - but you can see the fear in his eyes when the second guy kind of aggressively stabs his balloon - noting that there is not much distance between the skin of a popped balloon versus the skin on that sexy guy. How long before he is unintentionally pierced by an audience member who has had perhaps too much to drink? ..... All in all, it was a GREAT burlesque show and I wish them a tremendous amount of success. My only worry now is that the Jomtien Complex (aka Supertown) now has 3 cabaret type of showbars; The Venue, M2M, and now Candy Bar. We noticed that perhaps 2 to 3 stars from M2M are now working at the new Candy Bar and we hope that it does not diminish the success of M2M. My boyfriend and I, we voted the show bars in the following order; 1.) M2M, a VERY close second 2.) Candy Bar, and 3.) The Venue. We agreed that we need to return to the M2M very soon to see if they have lost any of their passionate greatness as a result of the Candy Bar. We also agreed that we need to return back to the Candy Bar on one of their other theme nights; Perfect Pop Show, Classic Camp Cabaret, Icons – Anthems & Divas. Recently, the Candy Bar had a Sexy Bum Competition, where the contestants were numbered (like in Bangkok), so that they could be voted on. There was a 1,000 baht prize for the best bum. This looks like it was a lot of fun and I wish that I had been there. Hmmmm --> just look at those voluptuous sexy bums…. and the winner is.......... wait, wait, wait - I am so confused - how could a guy who looks like he is directly from the Atlas muscle bar in Bangkok be a winner in the "twink heaven" confines of Supertown? Inquiring minds want to know - is Supertown slowly turning into a mini muscle heaven ?? After the conclusion of the Candy Bar Burlesque show, we head back to the Sun Bar, as our unfinished bottle of whiskey was waiting for our return. And as my boyfriend told me, there was dancing inside the bar, of course behind the smoke screen glass. Now I was truly happy, as it is very rare that I get to dance in the Jomtien Complex (aka Supertown). mini partial map for those who are not familiar with the Supertown entertainment center in Jomtien https://www.gaysupertown.com/ I stay for an hour and then I leave all of them and I head back home to sleep it off – as the whiskey is now starting to give me a slight headache. I wake up at 8am, and my boyfriend sends me a message from the Jomtien soi 12 beach volleyball to tell me that they are heading home to get some my sleep. What was the name of that song from the Twilight movie ?

hahaha - unfortunately, it was only 10 for seconds - and at my ripe old age - I am still trying to get an erection in 10 seconds....hahahaha But, back when I was a young sexy whippersnapper - I perhaps could of exploded in only 10 seconds - as those Myanmar guys with their huge appendages are truly enticing.

That photo (below) reminds me of a trip that I did years ago when we (Woody, Non, and myself) did this similar trip - when we were sold by the boat tour agents on the river a tourist trip of 3 countries..... FALSE sneaky Advertising - we departed on the Mekong river from Thailand, floated by as close as was legally possible to Myanmar (boat guide told us - sorry due to the situation we cannot disembark on the Myanmar territory - I was very disappointed), then we moored on a Laos island (Don Sao) that was in the middle of the Mekong river that was in Laos territory and we were allowed to disembark - with no stamping of passports, as this Laos island was tiny, where its sole purpose was to give some local merchants a chance to sell us stupid tourists some trinkets and souvenirs and to earn some hard currencies. So, my desire to enter into Myanmar was temporarily thwarted. However, my 2 lovely tour guides, Woody and his partner Non, took me to the 3 Pagoda Pass Market - which sits on a mountain pass at the border with Myanmar. While roaming around this market (unattended as Woody and Non did not think that I would do anything stupid) when between the market stalls some sexy guys waved at me to come over to behind the stalls - which I stupidly did - and then Woody and Non realized that I had inadvertently crossed over into Myanmar - they both rushed to the edge of the invisible border and called me back into Thailand - it was quite a commotion, as I was the stupid American not knowing / understanding what I had just done. So, technically, I was in Myanmar for 10 seconds - but no passport stamps to prove it.

yes - I will write a review later today - now I need to get ready for a delicious 4 hands massage from my 2 favorite Myanmar guys.... I hope that you got what you were looking for 🤪🤨

perhaps you want to say his fourth talent - as I would imagine that there is a hidden talent that you and him have experienced in the privacy of your room :>)) 1.) stuff only for Jason, 2.) Pool, 3.) Chess, 4.) Volleyball.

Wow - their cocks are soo long. Is it because the practice neck stretching like the women but instead to their cocks? 🍆😜

Oh my God, I just lost my appetite for my breakfast that has not yet arrived at my table. 🤮🤢🤕

@Dannyxxx - this is what I LOVE about this board - the direct in real time assistance while someone is living his Thailand vacation. We are your "helping hands" hahaha - no pun intended - so that you can maximize your vacation in real time. It's as if us forum members are on standby - in the capacity of a green number (as they used to say in Italy) - I believe that in the USA you say 1-800 number - operators standing by to help you with your vacation in real time....

I will pray that they do not implement this ban in Da Nang - as I want to rent any of those many hi-floor amazing AirBnB condos that are directly on the sea with AMAZING views.

Yes I do agree. But also what comes into play is the Thai mindset as to they do everything the right way and if others do not understand the "Thai way" - that they are wrong for not being able to understand. Also, there are many governmental fiefdoms issuing these various visas, such as the BOI - Board of Investment, MOFA - Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Thai Immigration. I do not believe that these entities are aligned or even want to be aligned - as there are "fiefdom interests" at stake. Consequently, what would be best for us users of these said visas is not considered. And herein lies a potential HUGE problem. If I would use one of the automated gates on entry back into the Kingdom and consequently my passport is not stamped - I would have NO ability to prove: When my required 90 day reporting begins and ends to determine if I am in compliance - potentially incurring a find and/or harassment at the immigration office. Yes, it should be recorded in their digital database - but do I get to see that screen when it is displayed to the immigration officer? How can I defend my position without physical proof? That I was physically outside of Thailand for more than 180 days to avoid becoming a tax resident in the 2025 tax year. Recently, @reader posted the below article where due to the bad procurement procedure regarding the purchase of the biometric system underlying database subscription - tons of data was not stored. How would one defend himself against this type of bureaucratic incompetence ? I have lived here long enough (also in Italy - as there are many similar bureaucratic nightmares) to learn my lesson and to be 300% prepared for the unknown obstacles that have yet to present themselves. I would say yes and no. I believe that the training of the Cebu Pacific check-in clerk who was working in a situation where the bulk of the check-ins were for domestic flights - she was clueless about what to do in my case. I think that with more experience and better documentation within the Cebu Pacific check-in system this issue could have been resolved with better training. Back in year 2000 when I was still a student in Rome Italy - I had this same problem/issue at the London airport because I did not have an onwards ticket when I was trying to return from London to Rome because I only had 1 passport at that time - which was USA. So, they tried to block me from boarding my flight back to Rome until we sat down and discussed my issue with the UK supervisor that I was a student in Italy with a USA passport who had the legal right to live in Italy with my then student visa. So, these rules that are often invented by seasoned bureaucrats are not tested out to see if they would work for various what-if scenarios.

As soon as I finish the filing of my USA tax return - that is the next project on the list for the preparation for our 130 day trip to Vietnam. Just last night, I had my Thai boyfriend sit with me at my computer so that we could get him a Hong Kong based debit card with his freshly new Thai passport - so that getting money in Vietnam will not be problematic. As I am quite sure if he tried to use his Kasikorn Thai ATM card it most likely would not work in Vietnam ? So, we will both apply for the 90 day tourist visa and then towards the end of this 90 day period we will employ the services of the famous Lynn Visa agent - who will take us on one of their giant busses over to Laos - to do a border run, where we would get an additional 90 day tourist visa. Many of the expats and digital nomads who call Da Nang their home rave about Lynn's service. However, it is a grueling all day event - where you wake up like at 4am and return perhaps around 8 to 10 pm. https://lynnvisa.vn/ I am sure that this will all be covered in my to-be created NEW trip report to research if an elderly gay retiree can live comfortably in Da Nang over in the Vietnam channel of our gayguides.com forum. I will need to understand a priori before we buy our Bangkok to Da Nang tickets next week if this will be a problem. If yes, then I will buy an adjustable ticket where we can change the return ticket date afterwards. Also, my Thai boyfriend has asked me if he can return to Thailand for like 2 weeks at a time during our 130 day stay in Vietnam. I am thinking to allow him to have 2 return trips - so with his ticket it may be a non issue - but for mine it may become an issue. As I already went to Da Nang during the 2024 Songkran period - when I returned - the Vietnamese airport check in people did not have this issue. In fact, they did not even ask me to show any kind of proof. It was easy-peasy.

You were practically Tom Hanks in the movie The Terminal - but perhaps it should be renamed = Airplane Fuselage I have NEVER in my life traveled for 44 hours - other than when I got the crazy idea to drive coast to coast across the USA, which took me 5 days - with driving between 10 to 15 hours each day. Once was enough.

I sure do hope so - but that will depend on this Thai government's politics towards taxing us elderly retirees..... So, my future is in the hands of the Government House over in Bangkok.

I walked by the new Candy Bar this afternoon - see below photo. It looks very enticing. I am trying to convince my Thai boyfriend that we should go and see this Friday evening show.....

And that look on their face when you board the plane together is so precious - to see their excitement. A precious memory that they will never forget.

This is so VERY true and should not be discounted. In my experience it has been very difficult to get a night owl to get up early in the morning to do things with you. If they are forced to do so then they might be groggy and grumpy. So, try to compromise with a later start time for tourist stuff, and then you will both probably be happier.
