    Thailand will be my home in late 2024

    in The Sandbox

    Posted

    I won't be replying to any further comments on this thread.

    It is a shame forum discipline doesn't work in this forum and threads go off topic.

     

    I have not asked for advice on buying houses

    I have never mentioned I am buying a house

    I don't need to be told where to live or what I should be doing.

     

    I started this thread to find out if anyone else might find themselves in the same region as me next year.

     

    One person has been in touch and for that, thank you.

    As for the rest of you going on about undercover police and things not related to my original post.......

    Forget it, I am done with this thread.

    Have you been to any of these places before?  No, But I know I don't want to live up north in Bangkok/pattaya/phucket

    You want to be near friends in Hatyai and Penang, but don't want to live in either of these places, so I wonder why?

    I want to be within walking distance (15/25 min) of a beach front for daily strolls and a paddle

    Extended family in Hat Yai are Thai property agents, they will help me locate a place to live, I don't need to live near them.

    I am unable to retire to Malaysia as the MM2H is way out of my budget otherwise I would settle in Penang.

    I would like to live somewhere within the circle

     So, it would be nice to know that someone from this forum would also be down there - even though I would arrive 2 months prior to you to "set up camp..."

    Thanks for taking the time to write. 

    Who knows, this time next year we might both be there.  That would be something.

    I have to remember I am retiring, not back packing, not a tourist, so I want to be somewhere a little off the tourist trail for a quiter life.

    Apparently there is one gay bar in Hat Yai but very little in Songklha from my google searches.  

    I think for any boy entertainment I will be relying on the likes of grindr or other apps.

    Out of curiosity I wonder how many members of the forum might be retired in Thailand as I hope to do next year.

    I would imagine not many as I've found retired folk tend to haunt the FB forums more... 

    I am heading for Songkhla to live, I want to be close to the Malay border and Hat Yai as I have extended family in Penang and friends in Hat Yai.

    I will make the trip up north for Bangkok and the tourist traps and find me a boy bar in Pattaya for a gin and tonic or four but it doesn't appeal to me to live up there.

    If any forum members reside down south where I am hoping to be, please do strike up a conversation with me, I am up for some friends.

    I am planning on being there late 2024, November probably. Leaving the UK late August '24 and doing a couple of months in Penang first. 

    Chinese Tourists Avoiding Thailand: BBC Report

    in Gay Thailand

    Posted

    A report on early morning BBC news also report one of the reasons for a drop in younger chinese (and Taiwanese) tourists is the risk of kidnap and taken to Cambodia where there is a large and thriving trade in organ harvesting, and also human trafficking is a real problem for younger chinese (also reported in the Guardian newpaper in the UK) 

    Kidnap is a real problem for younger chinese tourists, that's why the numbers fell off a cliff, believed to be made worse by Chinese Tourist Vlogs scaring the pants of thier fellow nationals by reporting it on social media.

    You could take a video of this B&W button down shirt guy and publicly shame him on IG or Tiktok.

    No point, move along, nothing to see here.
    Tik Tok? I mean no.... don't do it.
    don't even have Tik tok on your phone.
     

    Go back the day after, buy the boys a drink and let them know someone cares about them

     

    Don't do that tick tok shit. no one benefits from that riubbish.

     The waiters look so uncomfortable and it is certainly disgusting to watch. 

    Poor judgement on his part for sure. Probably pointless to take him aside and have a word, that would just make it worse.
    I doubt it is the first time the staff have had to deal with poor standards but I agree, it can be pretty disgusting to witness and not be able to recitfy the situation.
    Maybe you could buy the waiters a drink later....

    you're visiting Phuket soon and you hope to organize a double-twink orgy, right? Although you didn't explicitly say so, are you asking how to go about organizing one?

    Yes I am, not so much an orgy, just a nice evening with a couple of twinks who will allow me to cum while I enjoy watching them in privacy.

    Where is the best place to select such participants.... It would seem 'apps' are not the best way, which is good to know.

    Make sure your overnight  companion is sourced from some established place like bar or massage, not from street. I'd not invite guy from apps for sleepover too unless you tested him before for short time  and got some feeling of what person he is.  Worst rip off you may have is when at 3 am he announces that he parked his motorbike in wrong spot and must to move it or his roommate forgot a key and he needs to go.

    If you plan to bring more than one boy at once, pick up one , explain him what you want to do and let him to select other companion(s) , subject to your approval. You don't want to dump other guy your first  chosen one may not be comfortable with. He may suggest somebody from his place or quite opposite , from place as far as possible from there.

    You can lock your passport and phone in safety deposit box but I never locked phone nor tablet and nothing was missing .

     

    Makes a lot of sense, Thank You.

    The best advice I see from well-informed people is to take your time when it comes to choosing a place to retire. Spend a few months first before you make a permanent decision on where to live. Do you speak Thai? Will you be planning to learn? I think it's easier to get by with English only in the more tourist-oriented places like Bangkok, Pattaya or Phuket. Songkhla might be a little more challenging.

     

    I don't speak a word of Thai but hubby is fluent and we have a very large extended family from Penang all the way to Hat Yai to help us along the way.

    Are you sure you can handle the potential boredom of small-town life?

    Also, the land route from Songkhla to Padang Besar takes you into "FCDO advises against all but essential travel" territory. To satisfy the need  for regular visits to Malaysia, you might be better off living in Bangkok and flying to KL or Penang. (it might even be quicker!)

     

    Small town life is exactly what we want when we are not going away for a weekend party

    We will be travelling with extended family when doing any travel between Hay Yai/Songkhla so I am not too worried

    you should follow the advice given about using a second hotel room for your little party. Take enough cash for their tips, and leave everything else in your main room.

     

     

    This is a bit of genius advice, thanks. 

    Your advice for a 'Noob' heading to Thailand.

    Hello there, I hope I find you well.

    It has been delightful to find this forum as I head for my Thailand retirement in mid 2024.

     

    My plan is to eventually take the O visa and settle in Songkhla.  I am 65yo man, currently in the UK with my Malay (penang) Hubby/civil partner of 18 years.

     

    The MM2H visa is a little out of my reach, altho I understand it is being looked at this year with the possibility of it being turned in to a three tier system.  Gold Platinum Silver.

    I wait with baited breath as I would rather settle in Penang, but if that is not possible, it will be an O visa in Thailand for me. 

     

    Songkhla so I am closer to the Malay border for Hubby. 

     

    Either way, we will be spending time in Thailand and we will be wanting to 'party' in Phucket.  We are not averse to 'entertaining' company.

     

    We're not fussed about Pattaya, Hubby wants Phucket as he wishes to visit again for the first time since the horrible events of 2004 when he lost a lot of friends. 

    Hubby has also given me a ''pass' to have a night of my choosing, with a couple of twinks.

    We would also like to party together with a nice man in our hotel room letting us enjoy ourselves together. 

     

    I want nothing outrageous, two twinks, white briefs, poppers, hotel room, masturbate, fondle, masage, cum. 

     

    I have spent several days reading through the threads here and I have learned much about what is possible. 

     

    Some of the adventures I have read here are truly mind blowing.

     

    That said, I would enjoy reading your tips, tricks, advice, and warnings, for a 'gay old dad'  who wants a modest twink party, who hasn't got a clue how things work in Thailand.

     

    I am very happy to pay generous fair dues for services rendered but I do have thoughts of waking up and finding my phone gone and my passport missing.

     

    Is is safe to sleep overnight with a couple of twinks who I am paying for the night, or am I likely to wake up and find my life is over? 

     

    I would like to think I am not a stupid man, 12 years royal navy, 38 years teaching at university..... but we all make school boy mistakes which can cost dearly. .

     

    So please, if you have a moment to write a few lines, I would be very happy to read your warnings and advice and ideas for a rewarding stay.

     

    I would rather not get ripped off,  I am very happy to recompense a nice lad who will let me have a moment of pleasure.

     

    It is very clear there is a huge amount of experience in this forum so please do give me a list of do's and DON'TS

     

    Thanks so much. Mike.
