adjan jb Posted December 16, 2008 Share Posted December 16, 2008 Pai Is Pai still populated by those neo-hippies who sometimes have to borrow a match to light their joints ? I was just in Pai this past weekend. After what I read, I expected to see a whole lot of "hippie" types. Instead what I noticed was a whole lot of hi-so looking Thai girls and farang tourists that seem to be of a higher class than normally seen in Chiang Mai. I even ran into a whole group of girls from my office here in Chiang Mai. Oh, another random observation.. It seems to me that the ratio of American tourists to other farangs is quite a bit higher than I normally see in Chiang Mai, BKK, or Koh Samet. -Mestizo The hippies got out after they started doing random pee tests a year or two ago. Pai is popular with Thais because of a movie that was set there. Rambo 4 ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChiangMai2 Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 WTK And you need to visit Sayuri Entertainment Complex, quite obviously . Or Pandoras ..... same same area and cheaper Opens at 3 30 every afternoon. Enjoy ; ) ..... dave2 what if the OP is a female? i have a strange feeling its a she! Good intuition. I am a she (hence the "Angela" in my name). I don't know what Sayuri Entertainment Complex or Pandoras are, but given YOUR reply, tigerbeer, I have a strong suspicion. And if I'm correct...I have no interest. And ChiangMai2, I'll leave all the pre-ops for you. Your "strong suspicion" Angela, is probably spot on. Many of the people responding to your post are real "chok well's" TB excepted..... What's a "chok well?" Ask a Thai I think he means ชักว่าว A kite ! Marvellous, I have been as high as a kite before but I've never directly been called a kite.. Lovely xx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rinrada Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 Bit further out but.......SKP Hot Springs...dip your feet in the sulphure water and follow up with a visit inside the famous Muang Cave. After that take a run up to 'Hoi Gell' eco village,back for coffee in the local mountain huts/highland golf club,drive round Eagle,Elephant and Dragon mountain via Mae pa-kri and finally a very reasonably meal at Khun Jintas restaurant in Mae-on village....
