I was always happy with Zing at Jomtien complex. If you take one of the apartments on the pool side it's also very quiet but still close to all the fun. Friendly staff and good breakfast. No problem having guests. 80% gay.

In Jomtien I regularly go to T.B.M.I. (Thai Blind Massage Institute ). A masseur will be assigned to you (but at least you can choose between male and female). Price is reasonable and the quality has always been good. Have also heard good things about Burirom health massage too.  Maybe not the personal masseur you are looking for though.

These photos were published on Facebook. I was seated with the dancer in first photo on the right plus another dancer wearing glasses and jeans.
 
 

Maybe not a boy anymore but definitively a handsome man

First time in a Gogo Bar, we were all nervous (I guess)!
Like an initiation rite into a new world haha.
You will feel like 18 again!

Summary
 Definitely and by far sightseeing’s  high point was Sukhotai and Kampheang Phet. Fact that my friend K decided to go with me  doubled that travel  fun. Angkor and environs were  second, because all those places I already visited in the past but Cambodian ruins have such pull on me that I can visit there to no end.
I’m glad I went to Phuket, finally I know how it is there and may return in future if only to explore gay scene bit more energetically than I did this time. I beat my cousin to James Bond Island , that counts for plenty as well.
 As for boys I did not get anybody I regretted to engage. With few some improvement could be used but there were no antics like leaving suddenly out of blue (ok there was one case but I let it go for reason explained ) . It looks that engaging tried and tested pays big time and if we meet winner it’s good to keep him close like I did with both  PP and Pattaya guys, new to me. S was great travel companion and I’m glad I had him with me in Siem Reap and by my side every few days in Bangkok. Y knows I like him and shows his appreciation every time we met. NM surprisingly showed his romantic side  and both Tawan guys I offed facilitated  steamiest nights I had in whole month.
All 7 guys mentioned above had one endearing trait, none of them asked for any extras  other than agreed. When we dined their choices were modest. I liked that . I don’t mind to open purse but don’t like to be treated as money well.
Some quotations this trip were  excessive, certainly boys are trying to cash in. With one exception I managed to keep their tips within my  budget, bargaining down when necessary. Only case I yielded  I treated as last of our many meeting in the past and can’t see repeat in the future.
 It was one upsetting  disappointment , right in the beginning, indifferent look of Jupiter guy , veteran of many offs. But I guess all comers to an end, even customer  loyalty and client’s infatuation .
And two regrets, both for lack of time . I should off that Tawan waiter at least once more. I never thought I will be regretting not offing the twink but here I am. And I did not gave a chance to two Banana Club guys ,  Vu Thy and new #31. I think I know where my first steps next trip will be.
 Now you guys can vent your frustrations with me “ who the fuck writes such long and convoluted trip reports ? Screw you vinapu!
 
 
    

Well mixed. from 18 (estimate) to 50. The average I would say is around 30-35. When I arrived, the average probably went up another 5 years 😉

I will try 39 today. I hope it's not too crowded today because of Chinese new year. An old sauna saying goes: the more people, the less action.
There used to be a sauna in BKK that was notorious for ripping off and discriminating older farangs. Which one was that?
Have I already said how much I miss the old Babylon?

Day 21.
 Morning air and view was quite crisp. Being good friend I went to the lobby to say goodbyes to my friend whose car was already waiting then returned to my room to pack little I have  since I won’t be returning there after the tour. My van arrived at 10.00 as promised but it took more than hour to collect all other participants from 6 or 7 hotels.      
 That is one of reasons I’m not big fan of this type of tours but my time at Phuket was short so decided to do some shortcuts. Hiring car with driver would be more expensive but also more time efficient.
As usual it was blend of tourist sights – Big Buddha, Wat Chalom and Phuket Old Town and commercial part – honey farm, cashews farm and jewelry shop plus two animal tormenting sites _ Tiger camp and elephant  camp.
 Big Buddha is impressive site with beautiful view but was very crowded, Wat Chalom newish but very colorful and old town the same like Buddha Hill , colorful but crowded.
 




 
I did not bother with neither tiger nor elephant  concentration camps , I don’t like this type of entertainment even if I’m not animal lover I don’t support enslaving and drugging them for somebody’s entertainment.
 From commercial part I like some offerings at cashews farm- they sold cashews in several different flavors, I found truffle one particularly tasty but not exactly cheap.
All in , I still enjoyed tour as it gave me some idea how Phuket looks like.
 Since I’m changing hotels I alighted in Patong’s center and walked to Paradise Complex where my hotel The Corner is located. Looked as newly built or renovated place intended to work as budget version of Royal Paradise Hotel , towels  even bear that hotel signature. I can recommend place as location is perfect , on the , you guessed it, corner of soi where ZAG and new CRUISE gay clubs are located. Aquarious hotel and sauna and massage spas are all within 100 meters or less.
Paradise Complex main soi, The Corner is where those green planters are
 
Cruise club across the soi from my hotel, The Corner

Royal Paradise Hotel is truly landmark, picture taken from door of The Corner

 
As budget place had some , how to say , simplifications? No elevator, no kettle and no safety box but otherwise everything was perfect, AC was working , bed was comfortable and definitely I would stay there again.
After setting in I went to eat something, bought  cruise to James Bond Island for tomorrow and stroll soi where M to M  massage shops are located where I spotted nice looking muscular guy so enrolled him  for massage. For some reason he was in rush to finish session , in about ½ he we were done , massage , afters and stamp collection .
 Second massage in Phuket and second not so special . Too bad as guy was good looking ,  muscular, exactly of  type I like and if he took better care about business I was ready to invite him for private sessions of length of his choice.
After dark I went to ZAG  for few drinks and watch the show outside. Had  fun as on eof their waiters was kind of cruising me and I was cruising him, you know , drink here, wandering hand there. After 11 all were invited to move inside where show continued on the stage broken from time to time with models parade.
show at ZAG


I tipped two of them  red notes and as soon as they finished their part they came to my table to thank me , I offered them drinks so more discreet and not so discreet touches but at end of day or rather night nothing materialized . Thay had other adorates as well , waiter was pretending to be  busy so at 2 am I went to hotel alone.
 Bit excited decided still to do some walking and went to Bangla Road, Patong’s main strip and I was shocked indeed to see how busy at that late time it was ,  imagine Siam BTS station at rush hour.
 It was probably 3 when I returned to the room to catch few hours of sleep.

Thanks for the great report about Phuket @vinapu !
So, whats your take about Phuket? Is it worth a visit? I was on Phuket 3x and the last time (10 years ago) the gay scene was small and a bit depressing. I could imagine to visit it again (maybe as a stopover on the route to Kao Lak).
I also don't like the animal zoo's. I also don't like human zoo's as in the north of TH close to the border to Birma/Myanmar (Meo tribes). Humiliating and embarrassing... but that's just my humble opinion. Did it once and never again.

Number 6 Restaurant Up the Hill is the name according to Google Maps

Ok, I am already back from 39 Underground (no need to stay any longer 😉 )
It's just a 2 minutes walk from the Saphan Khwai BTS Station at the dead end of a small soi. Entrance fee was 250 (weekend price). At 2 pm it was already crowded. About 100 Asians and 2 Farangs 😉
The sauna spreads about 4 floors, 3 of them underground, hence the name. There is also a little bar and a roof "garden". In the very dark underground there was action on every square inch. As expected, most of the guys were more into Asians, but I had my fun too... plenty of it. It's not the cleanest place on earth, but I found it acceptable. All action was raw, never saw a condom in usage. I hope they use at least PREP since it's much cheaper here in TH. Today was naked theme, that`s why you only got a small towel and you were not allowed to carry the towel in the action areas.
So for me, the visit was worthwhile, even though I was more or less the only Western guy there.

Some of them are quite pushy and aggressive (Foxy Smile for example). Soda on the other hand are friendly. Sitting in O Delices you can watch them coming and going 😉

Lately I was very surprised when I had a meeting with my students. Normally they bring their computers/tablets/handy in those meetings and are doing something online during the meetings. This time I was the only one with a computer, all of them were writing their notes on paper and were quite were present and focused.
So, there is hope...

A good reminder to stay safe, guys. Not worth it!
