Yes @Menaughty, Escortbuk has been discussed here on other forms. Be aware that the prices are well above the going market rate for Colombia. However, they market themselves as a premium service provider (zero hassles) and all of their escorts speak English if that is a important factor for you. When you request a "date" with one of their escorts, you will be provided with full details, including a face photo. Obviously targeted at the growing tourist market, their escorts will show up at the agreed time and know exactly what they are there to do. If you are willing to pay for a no-hassle professional service, then Escortbuk is absolutely a good option.

It was sleazy, sofas sticky, and handrail up to rooms was not attached to wall, but I had some fun there!

Plenty of choices and quality under $50.

But she included squats and pickleball.

She left out sex....

Good point!

From CNN Walking has earned a reputation as a great form of exercise that’s easy and accessible for many people, and scores of studies show the popular activity has numerous health benefits, too. Getting at least 2,300 steps per day reduces your risk of dying from cardiovascular disease, according to one study published in a 2023 edition of the European Journal of Preventive Cardiology. In addition, weight-bearing exercises such as walking help prevent osteoporosis, according to another study published in the journal Nature Scientific Reports. Yet some experts in the health and fitness fields assert that while walking is certainly good for your health and fitness, it’s not really high-quality exercise. One such expert is Melissa Boyd, a certified personal trainer and coach with Tempo, an online personal training platform. Boyd is based in San Francisco. “Our lives have gotten so busy — we commute, sit all day, then are exhausted at night — that getting a short walk in makes you feel like you’ve done this big, exponential thing,” Boyd said. “But walking is really a baseline movement your body requires to function well, to help with things like circulation and digestion, and to decompress.” To help her clients better understand why a daily walk won’t result in a beach body — something many of them believe, thanks to various social media influencers — she discusses with them the three types of movement that are beneficial for overall health and fitness. First is the movement your body is owed or requires every day, such as walking, stretching and bending. Second is athletic movement, which you can do a few times a week to improve your fitness or to train for a sport. Third is social movement that you do for fun or to connect with others, such as dancing or playing volleyball. “It’s important to think of movement in these different categories because not moving throughout the day has become normalized,” Boyd said. “Our lives are so sedentary, many of us are trying to dig ourselves out of a movement deficit. But exercise is different from physical movement.” Continues at https://www.cnn.com/2024/05/04/health/three-forms-movement-weekly-wellness/index.html

and so are us

not the same.....

fortunately now we have apps in our hour of need, not to mention massage places are everywhere

To answer the implied question in the title, one word will do: Irrelevant.

I wonder what the real number of people who don't respond to telephone and/or online polls is. I never respond to them.

Ive never book a place to watch firework before but ive been in bangkok and pattaya during new year few times. Roof top restaurants/bars usually have a dinner/drink/firework packages that u can book, some can be quite expensive though. Furama silom roof top has one annually. Booking a higher tier room there could also work, but like u already guess, the rate during that night is high, can be triple the normal rate.

I was in the Complex the other night and I noticed that DoubleShot was also closed. Is it temporary or permanent?

You may stay in regular hotel and book table in one of rooftop bars instead.

From Pattaya News By Adam Judd Recently, prostitution in Thailand is back in the news, primarily due to a report by the International Sex Workers Union, seen here, that states that Thailand is in the top ten countries worldwide for the number of sex workers. This has caused significant discussion online and some confusion about what the current laws are and what proposals are in place for potential change to the laws. With the assistance of our friends and partners at Issan Lawyers, here is a brief overview of the current situation: Prostitution in Thailand is a complex issue with a legal framework that is not straightforward. Here’s a summary of the current laws, legal penalties, and future proposals regarding prostitution in Thailand: – Prostitution itself is, surprisingly to many, not fully illegal in Thailand, but public solicitation for prostitution is prohibited if it is carried out “openly and shamelessly” or “causes a nuisance to the public”. – The legal framework governing prostitution is based on three acts: the Prevention and Suppression of Prostitution Act, the Penal Code, and the Anti-Trafficking in Persons Act. – The Prevention and Suppression of Prostitution Act of 1996 explicitly forbids prostitution in public places and brothels, introducing fines for providing sexual services. This essentially makes any bar or club that has prostitutes illegal. Legal Penalties: – Individuals who solicit sex in an open and shameless manner or cause nuisance to the public are subject to fines. – Those associating in a “prostitution establishment” for the purpose of prostitution face jail terms or fines or both. – The Penal Code stipulates that anyone over the age of 16 who subsists on the earnings of a prostitute shall be punished with imprisonment of seven to twenty years and fined, or imprisonment for life. Future Proposals: – There are recent proposals to fully decriminalize prostitution in Thailand to ensure higher standards of safety for sex workers. – A draft law, the Sex Workers Protection Bill, has been proposed to replace the existing Prevention and Suppression of Prostitution Act from 1996. – The new law aims to grant fundamental labor rights, healthcare support, and social security to sex workers.

Hi all. I'm going to be in Thailand for New Year's and would like to watch some really good fireworks, ideally from my hotel balcony. My first preference would be to watch the fireworks that take place at IconSiam, however all the hotels in the immediate vicinity around the river are unsurprisingly charging an insane amount for that night. Do you happen to know of any decently priced hotels in the area that have a decent view? Alternatively, other places in Bangkok or even the rest of Thailand that have good fireworks shows? I would prefer not to be out and about in the crowds, so a view from a hotel is a must! Thank you 😊
