wahaha

I was driving on a street parallel to Hauy Kaew and noticed a block of beer bars (6 to 10 of them) one said A Go Go but there was no dancing.  I could only see Thai or Nippon men in attendance.  Anyone ever been there?  Safe for Farang?  These were only a few blocks away from The Chiang Mai Orchid.

Had a fellow tell me a few years about about these places. Thai oriented. But he, and a few fellow Aussies, went there on occasion for ST's. Cheap beers, and cheap ***. Never had the inkling to check them out. But maybe someday...

Yeah..cheap beers, food as well, sometimes they dont have english written menu..

Cheap ***??? not so sure about it? You know anything about this?

Ot in San Kam...cant get much closer to the golf course....

I live in Chiangmai Orchid now, compare to my last stay in Duangtawan, Orchid is very much better in terms of its environment... Duantawan is just to dull for young man like me.

It's kinda hard to talk to some lovely girl around CMU simply and most of them cannot understand english, am i having a wrong perception?

I have a friend who is a third year student at CMU. She is without a doubt the most beautiful woman I have ever met. I have spoken to her about three or four times a week for a month. She had never spoken a word of English to me. I speak very little Thai (in school now). One day she knocked on my apartment door and asked in perfect English “may I borrow 4000 Bht until tomorrow?”.

Had it been anyone else I would have said “Do I look like a bank?”

Since I was not expecting guests I was wearing boxer shorts when she visited.

There I was staring at the most beautiful woman in the world in my boxer shorts and she had just spoken to me in perfect English.

So I gave her 4000 Bht and she thanked me and left.

My conclusions. Most Thai college women can speak a little English but are afraid of speaking incorrectly so they don’t.

Then there is the reason I am afraid to speak Thai. When I start speaking Thai the Thais speak back to me in Thai and they speak so fast that I don’t understand them and I feel like an idiot.

At the bus station I just know I asked to buy the ticket attendants body instead of a ticket you know do oh and do oh or something like that and I felt really silly.

My advice is learn to speak a little Thai and they will try and speak a little English when they realize how funny you sound speaking Thai. Oh, by the way she was a couple of days late but she paid me back. I just love Thailand. Although my GF was not real pleased with the transaction.

Hmm... okie.. maybe as you suggested, it works. Maybe i should try to find a place with many CMU student that can speak English. Am i right?
