MikeOxtinks Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Hi Stephen welcome to Thailand, post a few comments here about what you think of the place after a week, two weeks, three weeks. There is some excellent info if you look on the area specific forums, they tend to be a bit more friendly too. Hope you enjoy your time here - I used to, for a while anyway.

But beware of the rabies and other social ailments you might catch. Welcome to ThaiVisa Stephen! And sure, feed the soi dogs if that is your want as suggested by aneliane; less chance of catching rabies there........... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If she wears ugly pink flip flops to the else nice clothes, than she is OK. I don't tell you why it is.....so you have the challenge to find it out yourself :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StreetCowboy Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 Steve - Don't tell them anything; all the preceding posters are straight out of this thread. A cute Thai girl will take your heart, they'll have the rest of your organs away before you can say "what consent form" and aneliene will hvae your bones for the dogs.
