"Mysterious disappearance" reminds me of a case in a gay sauna in Vienna in 2007: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disappearance_of_Aeryn_Gillern

Quite a few years ago in Siem Reap city center, I asked a Tuk Tuk driver to bring me to Mens Resort. He didnt know it, so he asked other Tuk Tuk drivers for directions and complicated discussions started. Shy as I am, i felt like the boy who buys condoms and the cashier loudly asks her colleague about the price so that everyone in the supermarket can hear it.

Be careful, pregnancy above age of 40 a bit risky!

Are the guys in Japan officially employed, do they pay taxes, do they get regular health checks? If yes, that should also be considered in a comparison.

Interesting maths! 17 km long, with 10 stations spaced 800-1000 meters apart ... there must be some wormholes.

Advantage of European Union, shops must state the final price including surcharges and taxes.

Ask the people in Sihanoukville! Military conflict is not the only way to exercise influence.

You did check in in the transit area? I didnt know that is possible. Did you only have carry-on baggage?

Would that mean in the future we can buy dildos and porn dvds at Thai markets, something that has never been available before?

Flying from Europe to Thailand, for me the best thing is to take an overnight flight where I can try to sleep according to night time in Thailand. Leaving Europe around 5/6 pm local time (or 10/11 pm Thai time) and arriving in Thailand say 8/9 am Thai time is perfect; I can sleep about 5 hours of the 10/11 h flight which is good to be fit enough on the first day in Thailand. I never have jet lag in this case. The worst thing for me is to take Qatar and having to change plane in the middle of the night in Doha and arriving sleep deprived in the afternoon in Thailand.

There is a new series, Century of Love, which is really great! 100 years ago San loved Wat, a woman who didnt want to marry the husband chosen for her and got shot dead. San was desperate and with the help of a spell he extended his life for 100 years to find Wats reincarnation. Now, in 2024, it turns out that most likely Wats reincarnation is a guy, Vee, something that old fashioned San (so far) can't accept. The spell is based on a magic stone, and of course some sinister people (and some not so sinister) are after the stone. I binge watched the available episodes (4 of 10). It has a lot of action and is also quite funny. It reminds me somewhat of KinnPorsche and it is at the same level. Vee is pretty cute: Could you resist? (my answer is in the picture) Quiz: In which Bangkok bar can you play this game?

In many countries accelerating tax declaration lies outside of our control. In some countries you have the following options: Apply for deadline extension or Do the tax declaration within regular deadline with the figures at the time of declaration and file an update later in case final figures are different . I suppose will be something similar in Thailand. Paying taxes in two countries can be complicated ...

Does this mean less border runs for Lao, Cambodian and Vietnamese workers? It will save them some money and time.

I guess surprise factor what to encounter was much more rewarding then than it is now due to all knowledge available on internet.

Maybe you were complaining at reception about each other that moaning is so loud haha

This is an important point. I think Hiv for non-Thai sex workers in Thailand can still be a death sentence because either they cant afford the medicine or maybe they will get older less efficient medication with more side effects. I also will never understand people who complain how expensive sex in Thailand is and come up with some price/gdp comparison with western countries but never factor in the risks the guys take like stds, life-long illness or possible violence etc

Since reopening I encountered: 1x beads (Laos massage guy), wasnt too bad, felt more strange in my head than somewhere else, but would not choose him again although service was good. 1x injection (MM Gogo boy), really bad, 2 brothers, both did it and i think both regret. 1x injection? (Gogo boy), somewhat unclear what exactly he did, not too bad, just too big.

Can someone convince me that this number is correct? Is it because illegal workers from neighbouring countries don't count as population? Or do they have access to free healthcare (I doubt)?

That's the only thing you shouldn't do in Pattaya!

I forgot to mention that I actually liked the side story between Jinta and Min, especially Min

I would apply for the massage and sex control group.

I think we had so much more time to watch BL series during Covid. Now time is limited, at least my time. I still watch some series from time to time. If a series is available, I watch it on Youtube. I watched Cherry Magic on Dramacool (recommended by Foolish); I didn't particularly like it, too perfect, too innocent. I am also not really a fan of remakes, even though I didn't see the original. Currently I am a bit a fan of Gemini + Forth and therefore watching "My Love Mixup" which is still airing. On my last Bangkok holiday I saw them by chance in Central World, they certainly have their school girl audience, but I thought the on-screen-chemistry is better. Here something I am eventually looking forward to, maybe airing later this year: Kidnap with Ohm Pawat and Leng Thanaphon My Golden Blood with Joss Way-ar and Gawin Caskey

Lets say I have 10000 $ on my bank account, 5000 from 2023, 5000 from 2024. Now I transfer 3000 $ to Thailand. How can I prove it is from 2023, there is no tag on that money saying "earned in 2023" ?
