reading this thread after coming to thailand makes me want to go re-read a lot of earlier posts ITT just to see how many were levels that I totally fell for.


Your post is as good as Eric's last week about the chocolate girl offering marrige in exhange for a water buffalo

not trying to offend anyone i am just drunk fwiw

Hey listen first time thailand travellers and some others too sadly. Sorry to break the news to you but I have to because I feel sorry for the girls that you are making sad.

I PROMISE you, they want to be taken care of, it is all about that. It has NOTHING to do with you being so god damn hot.

Believe what you want, but please give them money even if you think they are going with you because of your looks or your awsome personality!

thai girl money take falang man every time hallucination. Motorbike bad as a result helmet already. ping pong ball. thread end

lol, if I showed this post to my friends that has been living in Thailand for some years, man they would get a good laugh.

I promise you, if you stay in Thailand for some time, you will also laugh when reading this post later.

Dont worry tho, you are not alone.

post has to be a level?

Omg raze you're so right. You can also meet some really awesome friendly down to earth "real girls" near bus stops, especially on sukhumvit. Their buses always seems to be running late but they're nice and there's so many of them! It's so crazy! Bad bus system I guess.

EVERY massage girl in patong beach thought I was very sexy fwiw

sexy maaaan, welcaamee ITT

how many are you taking back to america?

Hmmph,

I've always thought the bus system was one of Thailand's strongest features.

driven a scooter before in Austria..

yesterday rent on at Koh Larn.. well not that much traffic on the few "roads" there.. just take care a little bit as the roads aren't that good everywhere..but also not as bet as some websites say

today in Pattaya.. well driven carefully..compared to europe it's not easy to see all traffic signal's at first sight.. crossover made me scare sometimes, also first time driving on the "wrong side" ..just focus on driving, look on the road and not the sidewalk so see some hotties, and you will be fine



in BKK, Khao Yai, Kanchanaburi, Koh Larn, Pattaya so far...

where go next ..Chiang Mai or Koh Samet? i think Chiang Mai would be worth a trip.. ? some advices for both Locations?

From what I have seen they think every falang man is handsome except the chocolate men.

Then again the only place I have ever talked to girls in Thailand is inside Nana Plaza so YMMV.

yep thai girls dont like chocholate men

Ok, I'm thinking of coming to Thailand in June for three months with two friends. We all play poker for a living so we'd need a house with good internet but apart from that anywhere with good nightlife will do, and maybe beaches. Any ideas on where and how I should start looking for a house/apartment? Are there beaches within travelling distance of Bangkok, is it the place to be?

yeah, ****ing thai bitches.... all about the money. I'm going back to america where the women don't give a **** about whether or not I have any money.

I'm feeling nice so I went thru the effort of finding a few post just a few pages back for you.

My basic Take on 3 popular Thai Island/Beach Areas
Mmerli's super awesome detailed explaination of different parts of Phuket Island
Pokerspiv (lives on Samui) Rebuttalls/Opinion on Samui

The weather in June is not that great (rains alot), so your best going to bangkok for the nightlife as it is far superior to anywhere else.

There are beaches fairly close to bangkok, but there not really that great when compared to samui/phuket. You can fly to Samui/Phuket in ~1 hour.

Rain can also affect internet connection so that would be another reason to choose bangkok as it has the most solid connections.

Your going to have to get a serviced apartment for a stay of 3 months.

Legend! High season is November to Mid-April, is that right? Do you know of anyone who has a spare room or three for rent in June-August? Longshot I know. Kata is sounding good to me...thanks for the help.

Whats the internet like in Kata? Do most of the serviced apartments have internet already set up, and how easy is it to get set up if not? And how easy is it to improve the connection if it is poor?

Wow, since you are being sarcastic I take it as you cant get laid in america by using only your personality or looks to charm women?

If so, I feel sorry for ya!

Properly setup Interwebz in Phuket are fine. In the 3 years Ie been here they have gone from mostly reliable to almost 100% provided you follow the basic steps of advice given by those with experience.

For short term, your best off buying an air card (~8KTHB + 800THB/mo) for your primary grind. This will allow you to hunt housing mostly unrelated to internetz. This will give you a much wider range of houses to hunt. You can use the house/apt interwebz as a backup/use for browse whilst relying on your aircard come grindtime.

Time to setup is not long. Landline based setups vary from 2days to 2 weeks to setup based on location and company.

Air card can be up and running as soon as you get it out of the shop.

Will one air card do for three people, or is it per person? And this can just be plugged into a laptop and it works fine? So what you are suggesting is that I fly out with no accommodation booked and then just house hunt? Will it be hard to find three rooms in Kata for three months starting June?

I believe you can buy a "router" aircard (bit more pricey) that can service the 3 of you in a common house.

Finding rooms/apt/house in Kata in June will NOT be that hard.

Our usual recco is book a few nights at this hotel: http://www.katabeachstudio.com/

An use the 1 st few days to hunt around on MBs for longer term accomodation.

In June (right in the middle of low season) availability is high and prices are lowest, so youd be coming at the perfect time to hunt and save.

excellent post sir,

i was looking for something along the lines of this. I know i want to go to phuket but idk where to stay there. was already planning on a hotel as base of operations and then getting a serviced apt from there.
