I had two twinks hunt me in HCM City yesterday and very happy that they caught me. The first works in a hotel, good looks and great body, excellent in bed, no mention of money and asked me to go for coffee today. Like many here he is looking for a relationship with a foriegner but I am happy to be friends with him. The second guy works in a shopping mall and when he arrived at my room his T Shirt was soaking wet with sweat. I asked what had happened and he said that i mentioned i wanted to go out early in the evening so he ran the 1.5 km in the heat to my hotel near the Ben Thanh market from his place near Bu Vien street because he was afraid i woud leave before he arrived. We had some very good fun and then went for food and more sex afterwards. Again no money involved. He was a genuinly delightful and happy guy to spend time with. He taught himself English language from watching Youtube music and movies. I will see him again on the weekend. The money boys are usually upfront about what they want in HCM City. I have been here enough times to have a fair gauge of whether they are a money boy or not. I am happy to see the ocassional mb but much prefer the other guys who like some fun and want to hang out for chatting, drinks, or dinner together. I find the Vietnamese guys are great to spend time in and away from the bedroom.

I am in HCM city now and have traveled to all the major cities and other areas here over the past two years. I use the apps and find more bottoms than tops, some are free and all the mboys i have met here so far cost less than Thailand. I prefer twinks and nearly all looked great and performed to my expectations. I have only sent one guy away who looked nothing like his photos and some in Hanoi have asked for $US100 which i did not bother with. I don't need gay bars or shows for entertainment so if that is your scene then you might find Thailand a better destination. There is still a problem here between the North and South. I was dating a guy from Saigon and and we sat at a table at my hotel for breakfast with a family visiting from Hanoi. Usually he would be smiling and chat with everyone but it went deathly silent. I asked him what the problem was and he replied "they from the north, we not friends". I don't think all Vietnamese feel that way but some obviously do.

It could happen from any bar. I know a guy in Pattaya who is managing three farang boyfriends and their associated payments. Have fun with them and maybe some gifts occasionally but anymore in most cases is risky to your savings and emotions.

Yes, he was turned on by a sexy 30ish year old customer

The details about airports,flights, sim cards etc in your reports are very useful for those of us considering a first visit to places like Myanmar.

Not weird. I was at the Bayon temple with a guide a few years back. We took some photos but then sat in the corner next to the wall and chatted but mostly just admired the magnificent temple in front of our eyes for about forty minutes. My memory of that time is more vivid than any photos in my collection.

Keep taking photos like that in the airports and you will most likely meet many men and maybe some ladies in uniform in the interview room before heading to some less comfortable accommodation than you may be used to in Thailand.

I use Grindr, Hornet and JackD in my travels throughout Asia. I run all three at the same time everywhere in Thailand, Malaysia,Vietnam and Taiwan. Blued is best for China but Grindr etc will run with and most times without a VPN. All have provided some great meets with guys for fun and long term friends. It pays to check the other apps like Gaydar, Scruff and Planet Romeo etc occasionally for some hidden gems. I rarely use Gaydar but found one of my best looking and reliable friends on there. Keep your options open when it comes to the apps. And you don't need to speak/read Chinese to use Blued. Messages can be translated within the app. I have met Chinese tourists visiting Pattaya and Bangkok from the Blued app. Most Chinese contacts will add you to their Wechat app which also translates Chinese.

It may be the hot Thai boy likes the poppers, especially if the farang is paying for them.

I am avoiding Don Muang Airport. Always a long wait at Immigration and for a taxi. Not even a fan at the disorganized taxi queue.

Thanks for the excellent report. I have spoken to Vit a few times when he sits outside Toy Boys. As you describe and along with his stunning looks, he is a genuinely friendly and likeable guy.

Read the replies and follow their good advise. He will take you for as much as you will give him and keep coming back for more. Cut off all contact and move on.

Still the same when i left Pattaya two weeks ago.

I agree, for a short stay in Thailand. My vacation has become retirement since 2013 so I have the time.

I find guys 20-27yo who visit me for free in Bangkok and even Pattaya. Some are Thai or visitors from other parts of Asia. I like slim Twinks and in any large population there are some who have an interest to meet older guys for free. Some of the guys I have met would be superstars if they were money boys. So it does happen and often. I get many messages also from guys I find unattractive but there are some gems available if you bother to check through the messages.

Looks like the Thais as well as other foreigners try to steal our guys as mentioned in your post with #32 trying to organize something with your date. That really annoys me when they watch us having drinks with someone and then folow our friends into the toilet and try to exchange numbers etc. It has happened to me at Telephone pub, the Red House bars in Taipei and also at a sky bar in Ho Chi Minh city. On all occasions the guys with me were not mb which does not excuse the behavior and my friend at Telephone was asked "how much for sex?" which really upset him. I wish these rude people would find their own guys. There are plenty of others available mb or not mb.

We nearly all learn a lesson at some stage when dating Thai and other Asian guys about their insecurities, jealousy and other emotions. Dating two guys at the same time on the same night who have some feeling for you, whatever that may be will usually cause problems. A beautifully written report and more to come hopefully. That last entry really made me think about past experiences in Thailand and a few tears shed by Thai friends and myself over the years. Probably more in the future but sometimes a part of the experience if you want more than just a quick sex session on your travels in Thailand.

Some members would cry if they were in BKK at Songkran but I still enjoy the boat trip to the pier near Khao San Road area on the first Songkran day and walking Silom Road on day 2. The summer months are too hot for me so I leave after Pattaya Songkran. Some other members should be able to answer your questions about other events. Loy Krathong is a nice event if you can visit after October but the actual date varies relative to the full moon.

It didn't seem to be a worry for the six guys that visited my room last week in KL. I would consider retiring in Malaysia, most sex is free or very inexpensive even compared with Thailand. There are other considerations besides sex, you need a place where you have friends with similar interests to hangout with and Thailand is a better option so far.

Ice massage is adjacent to Salt & Pepper which I recommend for good food and friendly service. They are using the more private rooms at Ice massage with a raised bed for oil massage and a floor mattress for Thai massage which is the same 300 baht price as the oil massages. There were 6 guys out front of Ice massage yesterday so more have returned since the new year. Relax Massage behind Tukcom used to charge 100 baht extra for their VIP rooms but I have not been there recently as I was quite happy with the guys at Ice Massage. I take all my clothes and valuables like phone and wallet to the shower at all massage places. As nice as the guys may be it is not worth the risk of leaving your money etc in the room. Somjit Massage is mostly curtained off rooms with a mattress on the floor, they had some more appealing staff sitting outside when I went past yesterday. It always pay to have a look around the massage places when you arrive as they have a frequent turnover of staff and some are often away for a few days visiting family, boyfriend etc.

I prefer a slim twink but if you like average build guys or a ladyboy you will surely find a willing masseur at most of the places that i have recently visited below. Massage skills can be ordinary and sometimes excellent but i go more for the fun at these places. Ice Massage - two sois behind Tukcom. I have visited four times and if the guys are there and the lights are on they are available so very handy when returning to my room at 2am or later. I only had one massage with slim, young looking 19yo Mee and his massage was very skilled and erotic but the other times got straight into some fun with one of the three twinks usually there. I still pay for the massage and they want 500 baht for some light fun which may be a blow job or more but very convenient if you want some quick fun. Enjoy Masssage - same soi as Ban Dok Mai hotel. I had a very good massage with a twink called Non and he was up for anything afterwards. Nobody else there that interested me and Non has been away the last two days. Paradise Massage - next to Mosaic. They have two very good looking guys doing massage and a few others plus a ladyboy but one of the hot guys spends all his time attached to his mobile all day and till late at night and I have never seen him take a customer. I might try to detach him from his phone for an hour later today. I did try Mai who is quite slim and tall and his massage was excellent, very firm and willing for a hand job after. Somjit Massage - across from side entrance to Tukcom. Somjit was my regular massage place on previous visits but they need some new staff as the current crew are very average lookers. They still get customers but not for me at present. Relax - behind Tukcom. Same as Ice massage and always available if any staff are there. A few twinks and a ladyboy. Not really my favourite place but others like it. Sea Massage - 2nd road near Boyztown. A more professional massage place with nice rooms and fun is available. One very cute 18yo working there but always busy when i visit. Maybe avoiding my lustful glances or getting better offers. Alcazar massage places - on 2nd road across from Alcazar. I was walking past and there were three very well defined build guys at adjoining massage places keen to do an oil massage so possibly some extras are available as Vessey previosly reported. It was busy with tourists after the Alcazar show so i might try again at a quieter time but maybe worth a look. I am sure there must be some hidden gems in the massage places away from the gay entertainment areas in Pattaya. More research is required into North Pattaya and other areas. I did not see anyone near Jomtiem Complex who appealed for a massage and Derby Massage is now closed.

Toy Boys was back to more than 20 to 30 guys available last night after a quiet few days over new years celebrations with some sitting outside later in the night for a closer look and chat as you pass by. Dream Boys had a very good selection of hot twinks last night and my beer was 190 baht. Kawaii and Cupidol look to have a good selection in passing and may require closer inspection.

There was a Thai guy of Tawan type muscle build and about 30yo offering his massage and "big tool" service last night around 2.00 am on Silom Road about 20 metres to the left of the entrance to DJ Station. Not for me but he looked OK and may suit you guys into that type and don't mind street trade.

I spent four days in Ubon two years ago. I never went inside Black Beans karaoke, just chatted outside with the manager and staff. I picked a guy on each of my two visits to the outside of the bar and they took me back to my hotel room on their motorcycles. 1000 baht tip each time and excellent attitude and performance on both nights. Ubon is quiet but there were guys available and some unusual temples to visit.

I have had usb's checked by Australian customs. Very fortunate that I refused a friend's offer of a usb full of porn.
