Best part of your fun there will be actually doing such a survey yourself , I'm kidding you not. And don't be shy , they heard it all and much more any given day. Start with Arena and Hero in Bangkok and Royal House and Scandic Massage in Pattaya

I never used ME3 airlines even if all of them are flying out from my city for simple reason - somehow their schedules are not meeting my requirements / too long connections / or ratio of total flying times to price not reasonable. With good price and connection time I'd not be afraid to fly even Yemenia , Air Zimbabwe or Gambia Air . My roughest landing ever were with Myanmar Air and Lufthansa , my smoothest with long defunct Wardair / Canada / , Aeroflot and China Eastern / that one on return from my last trip to LOS / , all three times toughing ground not noticeable.

100 tip to the server I consider veryyyyyyyyyyyyy generous unless you are scheming to bed him in a future. Don't read me wrong though, over generous doesn't mean wasteful, as you noticed everybody has own tipping habits including those who don't tip at all. What I'd call unfair were 100 baht tip to server and say, 50 or 20 to one presenting his cock for a feel. For me is a bit easier since I generally don't do much of bar hopping usually settling on one or two

I'm not against sunsets and sunrises , just I think that pastime is behind me. I wouldn't mind to see picture of sun rising behind Merapi as I was there and know exactly what you are talking about. Would you PM me or if you wish even post it in this thread. I'm surprised you mentioned expensive as I recall Indonesia being very good value for money.

Day 9 Today another ruins infested day. Two day ago I had Bang Melea temple about 60 Km from Siem Reap scheduled but as you recall I skipped it due to running late. Since that is probably most accessible out of remote Angkorian temples , with tours easily booked through Siem Reap agencies it made sense but after talk to Sophea the Driver he suggested we go there by his tuk-tuk. I was sold on idea immediately , more fun and he quoted me a reasonable 30 $ for such a trip , more or less what tour would cost. We left at 7, again stopping at the same baguette place I did few days ago for our breakfast fill. I was calculating that if we arrive at 9 it will be empty and quiet there but it was not a case due to 2 busloads of Chinese already in screaming to the high heaven. Mercifully temple area is vast but clearly to put it mildly their behavior did not indicate any veneration to the ancient structure they were exploring. On another hand I credit them with rising early and they seem at least to be interested in the structure, poking and climbing everywhere , just like me. It looked too that souvenir sellers did well with them. Having no shame I must admit that after 6 days of exploring I felt a bit of templed out and I have an impression so are readers of this thread ! . Early afternoon we were back in Siem Reap , agreed for a last tour tomorrow morning as I wanted to visit Angkor Wat itself on my way to the airport. Yesterday morning I told my boy from Barcode that probably I will need his company tonight, we even exchanged e-mail addresses so I could confirm but I left it at that perhaps acting a bit assholish yet knowing fully I will invite him back. Rest of day spent wandering through the markets, I went also to the new Angkor Museum , quite interesting but steeply priced at 12 $. On my way back I just step by Barcode , went up , asked for my boy and told him to be in my room at 9 p.m. It was perhaps best thing I did this trip as going down the stairs I heard his loud scream of joy and when he appeared on the balcony to wave at me he was all smiles. It must be my internal beauty which caused that, I’m sure. Lazy wandering again till time to return to the hotel and shortly after knock to the door led to reunion with familiar , handsome, smiling, smooth and sweet embraces. Cambodia kissed me good night in style and day 9 was over.

very interesting photo-story, different from our usual boy-infused narratives. I don't take any offence for you considering me stupid but on last day in Thailand which is usually long one since I fly out past midnight food is probably last thing coming to my mind.

I don't want to create a controversy but way I look at the issue is that boy allows me to touch his privates, erect or not, he already did plenty to earn a tip. Fact that he is a bar boy doesn't make me thinking I can put my hand everywhere I want unless he is prospective off and I just want to check wares but I do this only at boys invitation or indication. So when big cock show participants are going into audience I have an eye on one of them and when he approaches I get a feel and he gets 100. Other boys I neither touch nor tip. Fuck show couple gets a 100 as well just for making fool of themselves . On recent trip in both Screwboys and XBoys Pattaya it looked that boys were soliciting 100 each , I stood my ground but in a future I may need to make a decision in such a case tip 200, stick to 100 or not tip at all, we will see. I still stick to my habit of tipping 100 boy on the stage who did not get tip from me for other reason and I like the most when leaving a bar. If boy is sitting with me on my invitation , he gets 100, unless I do a bit of exploration then it may be 200 or 300 depending of discovery and length of time. I find deliberations whether to tip 50 or 100 not worth of trouble although I'm pretty sure lots of boys would rather get 50 than nothing as such and even 20 baht tips may add to something but I leave that level of tipping to those who are there for longer time Probably boy would be happier with me coming daily for a week and tipping 20 for a feel than once a year and . tipping 100 but really unless we talk to him we can only speculate about their preferences. As for z909 confetti comment I recall few years ago a Oriental client in one of bars literally throwing money at boys like that and having fun watching commotion.

thank you , I think you are right. I thought it's only case with this forum access but then I noticed the same with e-bay.

that's my approach as well when I have ticket already I don't bother checking price until next trip is in the books.

Joy to the world

or slipping on the soap in one's shower at home. This morning I was waken up to a sound of ambulance arriving at my condo and I learned this is exactly what happend to my neighbor. Our homes are much more dangerous places for us than aircraft we are flying , statistically proven.

Easy to say for Singaporean. On my last trip bulk of contents of my suitcase / 10.4 kg all / were things I did not need at all in Thailand but were necessary on arrival i.e winter clothes and shoes. It needs to be said though that 2 years ago I bought an excellent winter parka in Cental Departmnet store st Silom Center

Not being nosy but I wonder what do you have in your checked luggage that you are soooo concerned about being unattended. I'd think any items of value you had with you. There's old and always true advice that one should never take for trip things which can't afford to lose.

Exploring ruins is my other favorite pastime and really I don't blend those two. I thought tittle will be catchy enough and accurate considering that I returned to Thailand after Cambodia part. Saunas, discos, beaches and Silom soi 4 are not my hunting grounds. Can't imagine stone already on the floor falling on my head, I don't drink before sightseeing.

In my younger years I climbed few hills , mountains and high Himalayan passes , some overnight, to see sunrises so I consider I did my share of admiring that section of nature's beauty and bother no longer.

I think it's better that way. Otherwise do-gooders may step in and this is last thing businesses there need

yes

certainly they know how to present their wares, both boys and Aliexpress

Gentlemen, In last few days it seem that it takes noticeably much longer then usual to load new page or upload new post , sometimes up to 1 minute when normally it takes second or two. I wonder if others experienced the same or something is just brewing up in my computer ?

no. I'm back home already, did Rolous group and floating villages on the lake when there previously. As for sunset and sunrise I had interesting discussion with Sareth on our way to Sambor. When I declared that I consider watching those waste of time and efforts he labelled me cold, LOL. My excuse - I can see sunset from my balcony for 4 months in the summer

This is particularly valid question at Prasat Bakan which is on the plan , far from any mountains - where the hell stone was coming from? As for visiting with locals - this time it was perfect but often there's danger that we will be looking at places through their eyes. As for me , I'm always very well prepared before I visit any place or country but locals are always best in handling logistics. I know that without Sareth's help it would take extra day or two to organize Prasat Bakan or Preah Vihear tours.

Day 8 I kind of realize that for many this trip report , full of old stones and short of young men is boring but for a sake of accuracy of relation I just soldier on. In the morning my boy left with my promise to call him over tomorrow as I had some other hopes for tonight. There was some problem with breakfast supplies in the hotel so I had one on the street and shortly after my handsome tuk-tuk driver showed up , again in the untattered jeans, for another tour. Originally Sareth was supposed to guide me for today’s tour but he fell sick and e-mailed me he will not be available so I went alone. Today’s goal –walk around the wall of Angkor Thom , city of the center of which temple of Bayon is located. So for Sophea, the driver is was easy, he dropped me at South Gate , got few dollars for drinks , was instructed to wait there in 4 hrs and I set off for very pleasant , almost whole way in shade , stroll on the top of the wall. Very few tourists there , some locals clearing bushes, very quiet and peaceful walk literally minutes from hordes crowding ancient sites. If I ever be back and I’m sure I will this will be my first thing to do , perhaps in reverse order. Recommended for those who are tired of crowds as it easy to do and easy to break at any time by asking driver to wait at the next gate where one can make a decision to continue or abandon. Today I walked clockwise and it took leisurely 3 hrs. and 35 minutes. Wall for most part is in excellent repair with moat underneath with only few crumbled stretches . top of the wall moat There are 5 gates with South, North and Victory ones through a lot of traffic passes and West and East ones very quiet with only dirt road going through. In every corner there are ruins of small temples, almost unheard of and not visited . If they were somewhere far from Angkor each of them will attract tour buses and local authorities would by trying to get UNESCO interested in them. little visited West Gate unmarked temple in north-west corner if Angkor Thom walls After I returned waking Sophea up we went to Banteai Samre, another temple not as popular and in quite of distance from Angkor proper. Well now , not quite, 15 years ago when there I saw only other couple , my driver then was there for the first time and I don’t recall much an infrastructure . Banteai Samre and it's ceremonial way Now it was quite full of visitors , way to the temple crowded with souvenir stands and few , again expensive for Cambodia , restaurants across the road where we had a lunch after exploration. From there to Ta Som , my favourite of all Angkor temples , Ta Som then to Prasat Krol Ko , rarely visited, even if it’s almost across the road from popular Neak Pean, and then to one of big 5 of Angkor temples – Preah Khan / the same name as one visited yesterday /. She is famous for library , structure which almost looks like Roman building. As you noticed perhaps, I’m trying to see places which are less crowded and perhaps less known but this is what I came here for this time. I did big stuff already 15 years ago and considering 4-5 fold increase in number of visitors , I’m glad I did. Booked Sopeha for tomorrow’s trip to Bang Melea , temple I skipped yesterday for lack of time and as evening set off I went to MEN for a massage with a bit of hope for more hence I gave my Barcode boy night off tonight. MAN, is man only resort hidden in small alley close to Wat Polanka, kind of hard to find but if one follows maps from their website is not really that difficult to get there. From main street National Highway 6 there small alley with sign “Man” and it’s really short walk from there. Tuk-tuk drivers apparently all know the place and it may be the truth because first one I hailed close to my hotel knew it. I went there with very high expectations as very name ‘Men’ says it all. Very classy place with prices to match, price structure the same like in LINGA 20/26 $ for 1/1.5 hr session. I was assigned boy, very , very good looking , not tall but God-like muscular so I was hoping for plenty. On the way to a massage room glimpsed amenities, pool, gym , few patrons, one with boy beside. Showered alone , massage on the table with well, boy in singlet and briefs and he stay that way for the whole 1.5 hr. course. Not even once hint was given that fun other than just a massage may be available so I had just that- very good professional massage by extreme eye candy but that’s it. Left 30 $ tip which considering circumstances was probably too generous but truth is I liked massage. Can’t even say I was disappointed, not at all. I guess last few very intensive days and few night as well did me in. Wandering leisurely through Siem Reap center, I went to the hotel, collapsed on the bed and my day 8 was over.

thank you for great report, I had then same feeling watching that stupid number with balloons. When I was there guy dressed as a woman was actually big and hairy men , which I found very odd indeed. But still BBB puts good show and it really is wall to wall cock bar so I still confirm , for me best one in Thailand

this time I agree with you 100 %
