Bob, ever had a Guiness at the Irish Pub in Old Chiang Mai? Where do you recco a properly drawn pint? The Robin Hood soi 33 is good one.

Bob, ever had a Guiness at the Irish Pub in Old Chiang Mai? Where do you recco a properly drawn pint? The Robin Hood soi 33 is a good one. Another one by Silom (in a basement) gets you one for 250. At the Robin Hood, the have a cheapie brownie for 150. Not bad. My wife loves Irish pubs. Growing up in the south, she never encountered one. Deserves its own thread.

Mini Siam. Very cab-able. Water park next door.

-If you own a vineyard. Or to be fair, a dairy farm. * Link to the Bangkok Post removed * Romance scam promising dates with rich white men has scammed 10 women. 881M baht gone. All they got was celeb pics and nothing. Who are these women who have this much income? Have you ever encountered a rich whitie hunter at this level? This is like water buffalo in reverse. Has anyone here encountered an outright scam? Mere opportunistic greed is diff.

Have you considered posting within an Amish community?

Long on my list, due to the Bourdain episode. Poss on tour. Did you do a longhouse stay?

No, I'm saying hate away, fair point. The Millenials hate the Men X'ers. It has ever been thus. The boomers gave you no draft, drugs, and kinky sex. No thank you required.

What you're describing sounds like Christmas dinner in Cambodia. 'Had a great 20 hour bus ride from Hue to Vientiane back in the Lonely Planet era. Hue is underrated a bit. Those epic bus rides have been killed by cheap flights. Def search for my recent thread about BKK prices now prevalent in PP>

I would do it with something else. Prob Vietnam. Crossing into Laos is legendary for border agents wanting bribes, but it's only 100 baht. S Laos after the north of Cambodia will have you thinking that Vientiane is Times Square when you finally get there. Didn't love Saigon -at all- but at least it has a pulse. Fish Amok is the worst famous dish in SEA.

PP is basically ultra-poor BKK. Siem Reap will have you scratching your head for something to do on day 4. Partic you, who has solemnly vowed on a bible not to pay the admission fee to go inside Angkor Wat. Other than that, the towns are not that diff or nice. Battambang is the best for having a smattering of Khmer-fusion, tricked up tourist menus and an average-ish riverside walk. North of B-bang, 'not a lot to tempt you to linger. If you want the nowhere place that they try to talk up as an eco-lodge, Cambodia is between Thai and Lao prices. Taking the boat thru the Delta to Vietnam is worth a YouTube. But I didn't love it and I hear it's gotten more Chinese tourist-oriented since I did it.

Tell me more about the retirement options -is it a bring your own boat affair?

I like your snarky comments. I formed an opinion because......you post a lot too. And posting isn't bad or a sign of personal failure. It's just something people do. It's no biggie. I have no idea what your financial status is. If you're a big deal in Serbia, I think that's great. Sort of like being the world's tallest midget.

This. Thread closed. No advice can top this.

Nah, I am saying if THAILAND costs you 10% are you outa here? And where to? I hear Serbia is filling up fast.

I see nothing pot-addled glee from the few backpackers I come across. How many do you meet? Do you work in a youth hostel or something? Vietnam, Myanmar, Myanmar -no long term visa for 99% of us. If Thailand does this, other countries will soon follow. I was in Mex first, a poor socialist country with crazy tax rates for affluent people. Now I'm in another one and hoping to dodge it again. -If you live in a country, should you have to toss them a few baht for the privilege? Reluctantly, I must say yes. All this moaning from Euro's affronted by helping Ukraine or refugees. Is this newfound libertarianism simply opportunistic cheapness on all front. Crunch time: if it costs you 10% more to live her, would you bolt?

A poly person in a happy poly relationship is even more diff from this guy than I am. You're living the dream of millions. How common is your situation here?

Stay on a soi off of Suk Road, eat in a bunch of good restaurants near it. If I go to BKK and don't get in a cab more than twice, that's a great trip.

Yeah, due to my nutty relative (gotta be discrete with the relative-dodge), it was a truly hilarious rabbit hole to fall down. I def googled and snarked on all of the daddies. 2 got in, 4 got rinsed, including Mr Fendi purse (since divorced from his home-schooling, lord-lovin' wife). I had a female friend who was a size larger than Jabba The Hut. She went on an adultery site with real pics. She got a hundred hits a day. Someone took her to Paris. No joke, he paid for 2 seats for her. That's what you're up against. That you caved in 20 hours from "I want a dewey debutante" to "Crack Ho at a Karaoke Bar?, Tell me more" means that I seriously hope you will continue to reach out to us here.

On the sugar dating website I saw my relative on, about 50% of the women were saying they only wanted platonic. Then there would be dozens of topics on the forum about, "why is my platonic ad getting no hits?". Often from really unattractive women. They saw themselves as Arm Candy. Men saw them as "Had Too Much Candy Already".

Agreed, as a boomer, the young hate me for being boring, lecturing, and rightfully hating Rap. Fascism? It never gets that intellectual.

He's not ALLOWED to say where he's going, this may well be a witness protection scenario. When pressed, he said: Lol.

I feel like those luggage tags are absolutely begging airport staff to manhandle my bags at Don Mueng.

Yeah, but you SOUND English. You have to live with that. Lol.

Well, considering all of the English who'd love to live somewhere else but shot themselves in the foot with Brexit, the concept of "can't be too bad" demands a recount.

Soon you'll be paying $6 for orange juice again. And taking out a loan to pay for a cab ride. How f up is that?
