Great thread! Have benefited greatly by some of these advise read before in other threads. One thing to add, there is another great thread on how to treat/ignore mamasan. Maybe Vinapu can put the link up in the first post if it is still possible. Also, when you enter a bar, especially gogo bar, mamasan will escort you and show you a seat, but you can always insist to find the seat yourself, and have a bit of a tour of the place and pick seats where you are comfortable with. Unless its a full and packed bar, i always do this myself, and i like to seat a bit further from door and near the area where the boys goes in and out lol. Sometimes u can see them changing, always sexy. Also try to seat where u can have some space for the boy (boys) to seat next to you. My general advise is to go and try different bars if u can, i usually go one bar a night, or 2 if i dont find anyone on the first bar. Most bar closes around 12.30 with some exception that closes around 2am, so if u want to bar hop, best do it a bit earlier. And last thing, few normal beer bar/restaurant along the street provide seats facing the streets, perfect if u arrived there early and want to see boys coming in for work, or just see the massage boys outside. I find maxis is great for that, where u can sit and have good view of xboys, fresh boys where u can get a glimpse of boys on stage there, and massage boys sitting outside of bony and bangkok massage. U can also see boys from dreamboys, classic boys walking to go to their bars, also ladyboys and touter in actions. U can do this at hotmale bars too. One thing i observed that the touter wont even bother with indians tourist. Even if they walk alone. I am writting this from hua hin, great relaxing city and i like it, but a bit expensive to get around and some of the attractions like santorini park are abit far from hua hin city, so need more time and money to go there. The markets/night markets are great too.

Cambodia is homogeneous partly due to the genocide of khmer rouge period. Before that, there are about 15% of minorities living there.

Thanks again. Yeah, i might go one way by bus and another by train. Read online that taking train will have me changing train with a boat ride in between albeit short distance. Sound interesting but taking 2 different mode of transportation means i get to see more. Just 3 more days and ill be in bangkok lol.

Ill be in bangkok next monday, of course with 20k bath in hand and ill update if i were asked by them or not.

Its jusy some statistic gathered by their gov. God knows what the real spending really is. And its really hard to trace spending of cash, so my take is most of the recorded spending has to be where it was done by card, or at places where it is required to show ID, like duty free shoppings only.

Shop/attendance is listed there, hmmm. But no specific definition of the kind of shop, thus leaving it expose for extortion from the police.

I see a lot of grabbing in vietnam too, especially in ben thanh market. However they dobt bother grabbing me since i look like local lol My limited experience in Bangkok also have not experience any grabbing by tout.

Does it have to be in thai baht or any equivalent amount in other currencies is fine?

This has been highlighted before and seems to only enforced at land borders checkpoints

We can get off on masturbation with our own right hand, sex toys. No man or woman involve. Some real straight ones do use porn to help them perform as well.

Lol not just chatuchak, hua hin as well. Given that we will be doing food hunting, something i would rather have similar minded friend to do it with. Siem reap and luang prabang will have to wait lol. Kanchanaburi is definitely on the top of my list, just pondering whether a day trip is enough or not. A night spend there would mean a night loss of bangkok night though haha. But if i were going to be too tired night gymnastics, id probably be better off spending a night there.

Thanks for the advice christian and z909 and all. My straight friend decided to follow me after all so bit changed of plan lol. No trip to siem reap nor luang prabang. But instead we will go to hua hin and stay a night there. And spend another day in bangkok for catuchak market. However, i'll have the first 2 night and 1 day free for me before my friend comes, and 4 days 4 night after to do my solo exploration. Like i mentioned before, 1 day will be visiting maeklong train market. I am also trying to find any day trip worth doing from bangkok, so i dont have to switch hotel. A wuick search seems to point to kanchanaburi, ayutthaya, and khao yai. Already done ayutthaya before though. Otherwise ill keep exploring bangkok area instead, maybe do a massage rounds lol.

Jack definitely have good business sense to keep his regular happy. Its always better to have repeat custormer vs new customers. Which sucks for newbie like me lol

Turned out i will be travelling solo. So i have complete freedom to where i want to go now haha. Thanks for all the input guys. I am thinking should i just do thailand only now. Maybe chiang mai chiang rai, or issan area, by train. Kanchanaburi looks great too. Ill definitely want to do maeklong now, didnt manage to visit them before.

I did check, it is still reasonable. I do like the train travel though. Right now i am also looking to go to siem reap instead of Luang Prabang. Train ride is definitely shorter and the taxi ride from border to siem reap is less than 2 hour.

Ive had a few masseur/mb who told me they are quitting and end up still working. true enough they do go back home, but then they work their hometown instead. when they went vack, they did ask if we can send in money too to help with him buying land to farm. In monboy case, it does seems like he was trying to get money at first when he mentioned about the house. But all the subsequent chat/video calls says otherwise. And with monboy a cousin of victory, close friends to samebb, its pretty easy for numazu to know if he is back working.

Yeah that is what i think i migt do if i travel solo. Sleeper train to nongkhai, cab/bus short trip to vientiane. Stay there 1 night, then travel to luang prabang, maybe a night bus? spend 2 full day in luang prabang. If i go LP, ill go back to bangkok by flight. I dont think ill go by land both direction.

And right now expedia is having a sale on bangkok too, for hotels as well as hotels/flight. Dusit thani at usd73 per night, raya at usd50, with the suite around usd73 as well. Nantra silom is only usd 19.

Cant resist buying the ticket which is only usd39 and 1k points airasia from KUL, rm169 total for a 10 day trip at the end july and early august. I had a few friends that are still undecided if they want to join me so i figure bangkok would be a good base. I actually toy with the idea of going to Luang Prabang before, taking a train to nong khai and then bus to vientiane and luang prabang before the sale. And then the sale happened. A return ticket direct to Luang Prabang wouldve been just 1k point and usd23 but the only dates availble will leave me 6 days in luang prabang lol. So if my friends join me, itll be krabi for the touristy visit somewhere in the middle. If not, i wonder if its still a good idea to do land travel to luang prabang. Ive read few trips report here but welcome any other suggestion.

Most muscular thai are top because most of them are straight. U might find that some top will bottom for the right tip/customer.

Finally a glimpse of Monboy! Lovely boy indeed! He would do very well in this business if he keep doing what he did as what being told here.

Probably because he doesnt want the outer underwear to get dirty from his skin/penis/ass. The inner one will be replaced while the outer one will be worn multiple days? Just a theory lol

Wow, 3k daily for 4 month? Thats mighty generou of you. I think he told u because he felt rather guilty towards the end lol. And the ugly dick remark was a joke? But he is making engineers salary with what u have paid him, and he get free rent and free food.

Hickey is definitely not for everyone haha. Ive had one before right on my nipple, so it is well hidden from anyone, lasted probably a week or so, and its from both sucking and biting. It is from one of my early day experiencing gay massages lol

What the damn hell? U buy the drink for the boy and the bot sit somewhere else? I would go and take the boy's drink back to my table and drink it myself lol
