cant help with 1 or 2

internet is great, strong signal every hotel ive been at except 1 (4 total) and that one was still decent

occasionally some disconnect issues, but they are always very quick, only 1 day have they been frequent, didnt grind in PP but was online and always had strong signal there also

my power adapter i got in PI works here, outlet looks the same to me

metfone for backup, its $30 to get a USB dongle and then many different options, im doing $5 a month for 1.7 gb

i have no clue what that means btw, but ive been told thats much more than i will need as long as im not surfing the web and downloading movies, and only using it when needed

might be other companies, but been told metfone is the biggest/most reliable provider out here


as far as hotels just giving 2nd hand info but supposedly the red fox is in a good area to stay around, but some hotel across from it called the lux is nicer and had good internet

also walkabout hotel or "wan lang kan" on street 278 are supposedly decent places to stay but dont know about internet, flamingo hotel also in good location

kick2dante,

I have only read this thread.....but can you explain why you need a 10k bankroll before you want to go to Phillipines?

If that is where you dream about being, and your plan is to sit in your room and grind online, why not just do it from there?

Kick,
Pretty sure you must have figured this out by now, but just in case you haven't I'm gonna fill you in on the best tip ever for southeast Asia - guaranteed lock.



Warning, this is for Kick's eyes only - anyone else who opens it will immediately go blind:
Spoiler:
Whenever the Angeles City Lakers are playing the Phnom Penh Suns, take the over - it's a lock.



When I have a week or two to kill, I might read all the threads. In the meantime, all I can say is you have balls, bro, to make the move. My hat's off to you - best of luck and live the dream, my man. Phish is a noob on 2+2 so I haven't even been granted PM privileges yet but if you still have my info and you need anything shipped like an electric razor, nail clippers, or futures odds for NCAA shoot me an email.

I arrived yesterday in PP for the first time, for some grinding and my 1year Thai visa was running out. I went clubbing to the supposedly best bars, walked around through the streets and tought to myself: DAMN, THESE GIRLS ARE SO ****ING UGLY.
There faces are rough and dark, there noses are very wide. In total desperation, i asked some least ugly girls to come with me and all 3 of them asked 50 usd for the night. Very dissapointing especially as i spent the last year in phuket where there were pretty girls in abundance for 15-30usd.

At least i will not be tempted to club a lot and stay grinding here or in naga.

Is Shihanoukville better? more import vietnamese? Do i get used to it? Please help!

its more expensive there in just about every way (except food)

to get any sort of a decent place itll cost $300 a month + electric (which is expensive there) and + internet

compared to here being $250 a month everything included

the place was tons of fun when i was pinching every penny, but it would be unbelievable if i didnt have to think like that

plus im already here, dont have to travel, and am enjoying it so far, i can

it probably would be smarter to just stay here even if i get back to being a super rich 5 figure dude again, but i gotta give PI another shot at some point

I just got in to PP yesterday as well and I agree that the average Cambodian seems to be below par when compared to Thai, Lao, Vietnamese, etc...

to each their own, i think the girls here are pretty but like i just told phish all girls disgust me and i dont ever want to be anywhere near them

way hotter than thai imo

not many viatnemese around but some, shack girls viatnemese

definitely dont pay 50, guys here all claim to pay no more than 20 for long time, i havent talked to a girl yet that would have been happy with that and the cheapest ive been quoted is 15 for 1 pop or 25 for 2, of course i was just asking for research purposes to let others on here know because imo paying girls to be with you is a despicable thing that i dont want anything to do with

The women are sub par in Cambodia compared to surrounding countries on the whole, especially Thailand.

I promise you would not say that if you spend a couple of weeks in Thailand, its not even close.

Paying for girls is my way of social care for the south east asian society. You should be more supportive and thank me that i am willing to do this.

Ah, but VV you forget that in K2d's one night ever in Bangkok, he picked up the hottest girl in all of Thailand. So since he has been with the best Thailand has to offer in the p ussy department, and since he is saying Cambo girls are better.

Then clearly, Cambo girls must be better.

After all, K2d is the expert, and the man doesn't lie.

maybe the hottest thai girl is hotter than the hottest cambo girl

but walking around in either place you can tell how hot you think the average girl is..... thai girls just arent my style

some dudes think white girls are the hottest, some dudes think black girls are the hottest, some think thai, i like php and cambo girls style...... that said a hot girl is a hot girl no matter what ethnicity

You spent 1 night in Thailand K2D. If you had spent longer you'd realise that it's no harder to pick up a Khmer girl in Thailand than it is in Cambodia, since a significant percentage of girls in the tourist-oriented sex industry come from Ubon, Buriram and surrounding provinces.

Check out this handy map. The national boundaries haven't been in place that long, and many of those Thais are ethnic Khmer and still speak Khmer. Saying you prefer Cambodians to Thais is like saying you prefer Austrians to Germans. Fairly meaningless since they are effectively the same ethnic group.

That's said it's more likely you prefer Vietnamese girls, which are rare in Thailand but quite common in Cambodia.

Sorry mate, but 1 day in Thailand is nowhere near enough for you to form an opinion on Thai girls.

PP has a serious shortage of hot girls, from my observations they either have great body and terrible face or vice versa.

all i can go is by what i saw in bangkok, where i saw at least 10,000 females


thai girls seem to be paler, i like tan, thai have more asiany eyes, i prefer rounder

i can tell the difference between viatnemese and cambo over here, its very obvious, viatnemese are also paler and have the more asiany eyes, but they seem to have prettier faces than thais (tiny sample size though)

my fav are PI girls, and cambo look very similar, thai do not

im gonna put a tweak on peopleselbows favorite line:

but you guys go ahead and keep telling me which girls i find more attractive

@ K2 Do not worry about friends back home finding out about what you are getting up to. The longer you stay away the more that old life slips away and you care less and less. Lets be honest if your friends back home have any issues at all with you abusing impoverished third world hookers then they are not your true friends to begin with.

just read on other forum that streets 104 and 136 are the places to go in PP, supposedly just off the riverside

i have no clue what this means, just passing it along since some of u seem to be having troubles there

im not to concerned about it poots, as i keep saying odds of me ever living in the states again are under 1%, and im a weird anti social f#ck who did his best to keep from having any relationships or peeps i cared about over there cuz ive always known one day id just say f#ck it and do some crazy ish, i just never expected this would be the craziness

Why don't you just ask? When I was in doubt I often just asked - no one ever got offended they often just smiled and got their passport out to prove otherwise.

Bare in mind this was with girls I picked up in clubs/bars that weren't interested in money aswell... I can't imagine why you'd be bothered about hurting a whore's feelings?

so you just say "are you a ladyboy?"

i think id rather go with the if im in doubt ill just say nevermind route

i dont wanna hurt anyones feelings no matter what they do, and i hate confrontation and confrontation about something like that would be even worse
