Thailand

I’m curious to hear your subjective perspective on the different islands for a long stay with dogs. What are their benefits, challenges, vibe, and any other aspects you think are worth mentioning? I’ve visited over 20 countries, including Thailand, though I’ve only been to Pattaya. I’m a 36-year-...

It’s now Mayongchid (Marian plum) season in Thailand – you can only enjoy it once a year! Right now, there’s a Mayongchid fever going on here. If you’re in Thailand, make sure to try some! Crisp, juicy, sweet and tangy – it’s absolutely delicious!

Hi everyone, I’ve being to a couple of nights at the Reggae Bar in Phi Phi. I had a lot of fun watching the drunk people fight eachother and enjoying a drink. However, about every 4th fight, it’s a fight between 2 real local Muay Thai guys that work there. It looks impressive, but I can’t lose the f...

Totally regret not buying the 24 pack for 400 baht at the markets and my one lonely Yadom is losing its luster. What do people buy when back in the states?

I impulsively booked a ticket to Thailand for the first two weeks of September—months in advance, but still. I’m so excited. I haven’t told my family yet, and I know they’ll think going alone isn’t the best choice. They’ll be worried and probably shit their pants but whatever. I don’t have any quest...

What would you recommend instead?

Hi all, travelling from Pattaya, what’s the best route to get to khao san road?..do buses only travel to Bangkok airport or are there any buses that come close to khao San?..is ekkamai a good idea?

this was near the grand palace, I've got a video of the convoy, quite impressive.

They'll be on bolt, accept a ride & be a massive dick & eventually not show up. Then "randomly" a taxi driver will show up and offer to take you to where you want to go for the same price. I'm not sure how much bolt takes off the top for trips but if you want to you could negotiate down a fe...

Has anyone actually received the "my buffalo is sick" reason for financial support? In real life.

I get it. We are all here because we want to be free. We want to have new experiences without being bound by some of the more conservative Western standards. If you want to see a new lady every day that’s completely fine. If you want to change hotels twice a week, by all means - it’s “up to you.” ...

It always ends in pain and tears. You might think *she’s different*, but trust me—they’re all the same. I’m writing this with tears in my eyes and a heavy heart, but I’ll get through it. Just don’t fall for them. They’re not worth it.

Hi, Suddenly, way more thai women are interested to get to know me on Thaifriendly, and on social media. Is it because there are less clients now, or it is just random.
