May 16, 20196 yr Popular Post This is my 3rd trip to thailand over the decade and each one 2 months long (last one longer since I plan to stay) I have yet to go inside a go go bar that was enclosed with poles/ect. I rarely drink Just stay with my thai gf in her condo room and be online. I like the professional massages and less stress then the west. I see guys having a different gf every night, some multiple. But I am in a boring relationship with little money as my stocks are down. Thoughts?Am I doing thailand wrong?
May 16, 20196 yr Popular Post Skip online crap. Sheeet you can do online back in your home country. Go see Thailand. Karon beach on Phuket. Take ferry over to Ao Nang for a nice quiet scenic place. You like to reflect? Take the bus up to Sukhothai the ancient ruins are fantastic to walk around. A few days in Bangkok for sure. Some very impressive temples there. Nothing wrong with relaxing while on vacation. Heck the thing I like about Pattaya is my biggest decision of the day may be whether to turn right or to turn left when I walk out of the hotel in the morning (or afternoon if I slept in)! But sitting in the condo online.. don't do that too much. Nong Nooch, the Dusit zoo in Bangkok, the Kew open zoo north of Pattaya. You are in the tropics, put on some shorts and a T shirt and have some walk abouts.

In the mid 90s before the financial crash and many expats lost their high paying jobs they were legendary. I lived in Pattaya for a year about 10 years ago, and never bothered. Having a drink in a roadside barbeer on Walking Street was way more fun and cost little.

May 17, 20196 yr Popular Post Well, if you're short of money and enjoy spending time with your gf and being online, more power to you. Thailand outside the condo, though, can be fun, even on a little money. Go out to the extent your budget allows and see a bit of what there is to see. If you've never been to a go-go, sure, go once to see what it's about -- why not? -- but there are a lot of other, more fun ways to enjoy Thailand.

May 18, 20196 yr Oh.... Puh-lee-z! Nobdy cares bout ur boring life. To each his own... Why are you posting?
May 18, 20196 yr If you are invested in US stocks and your stocks are down, you better change investors.....how can one be down at 25,500? no money no honey anyway so what are you going to do in the bar scene? coming over here not frequently and spending your time in GF’s condo....what about seeing the country and culture?
May 18, 20196 yr Is there anything other than your stocks down sure some of the blue pill men on here can help if that's the case????
May 18, 20196 yr If you are letting what other people do/think run your life, you're doing life wrong. If you are asking "Am I doing Thailand wrong"? ... you're asking the wrong question. Do whatever you want. If you want a taste of what Thailand has to offer, go exploring. Go to rural areas, predominately Thai destinations, eat local cuisine, study the language - or stay with the wee woman, totally up to you.

Go to rural areas, predominately Thai destinations, eat local cuisine, study the language ... That is, of course, if you believe that in your own country going to visit the peasants in the countryside would give you a better feel for what's genuine. It's all part of the Enlightenment myth of the Noble Savage, which holds that the less contact someone has with the big city the more "genuine" they are

May 18, 20196 yr You remind me of the tourists who book an all inclusive deal at a hotel in Spain, packed with their fellow countrymen, and never leave it until they fly home. They went to Spain ... but not really.
May 18, 20196 yr Popular Post Come to walking street it's a BLAST! You don't have to drink or do short time, just look...but if you want more, it's ALL for the taking...welcome to the Land of Smiles. Whats the worst That can happen?

As for death, we are ALL dying slowly everyday. I drive by Pattaya laughing as I view all the guys sitting in the bars with one beer in one hand, a cig in the other ALL day. But they are happy!!! How much more worse is that? Probably a matter of perspective in the end...

Or just go trainspotting, but it requires patience in Thailand. Sit well away from the tracks.
