I agree, 2000 / 3000 is what I pay to Tawan beauties but nothing wrong with what what kid paid. Boys know very well that such generous customer will happen only from time to time. Kid 2729, I wonder who was your priceless boy ?

I'd go to a restaurant

Day 3 After being hit in the pocket I decided to kill the morning by visiting Siam Paragon. I’m not big fan of malls but like MtSapola aftershave and they have a boutique there on 4th floor. Mission accomplished very fast and I decided to walk back to the hotel by way of Lumpini park where again I met Sokchai marching after his session in the gym. Arrived in my room at noon and few minutes later phone from reception announcing ‘your friend is here’. Sure – Tiger from Tawan. I like those knowing looks of my reception personnel. In December he was my best boy and did not disappoint this time either. I think it’s a bit of chemistry between us and he reads me well so we had very active and pleasant two hours together. After he left I went for lunch to Foodland Patpong of all places. At 4.30 I met Xiluzer and his crowd, we took taxi for last time to soi 11 to bid farewell to HERO. I was hoping I will see O, he was my masseur back in Nov 2013 , best ever from there and after that he disappeared for me but recently 1moRussian reported he saw him at Hero. Yes , he was there so fast decision and we are in the room. True professional, the same like last time, hard from beginning. Very impressive considering he is straight with girlfriend. Gave him 1500 as good bye kiss, well earned. Waiting for my friends to finish their sessions I could see that it is last day indeed, few boys were leaving saying good bye to their co-workers and whole Hero at soi 11 era. It was always so impressive that place was so busy without any advertising, word of mouth served it very well although it was some writing on the water – last summer two our members reported that Prince was much busier than Hero. I like others will miss the place, more their selection process though than massages which I had feeling were usually a bit rushed but if they manage to resurrect place somewhere else I will be patronizing them loyally like so far. Early in the evening I went to BBB Inn to pick up Tao, formerly from Banana. Great masseur and companion. We went to Jupiter to see the show , few new faces , all boys very handsome with 44, 55 and 60 being top of the line as far as I’m concerned. But since I had boy with me no need to worry about the off and performance , offed Jupiter boys twice in the past and it was waste of money and time but at one point in the future I may give them third and last chance. Not much sleep with such trusted and tested company as we founded chores to do. He left early as always but since it was agreed on it is no issue for me. I walked him down just to see face of people on reception but they smiled knowingly, smiles hiding fact that my reputation is rotten already and it’s just beginning with 5 more nights there at Raya. It was only day 3 which just finished for me.

what they are asking and what they are getting is usually different thing. Nothing wrong with trying to get more and some punters either not knowing rate or used to paying much , much more at home may fork out amount requested. Quite a few boys asked me 4000-5000 but quickly went down to 3000 offered and who knows , may be would even accept less. It's marked economy for both , us and them. I don't have problem with that but if rate was agreed to it should be sticked to and requesting more is big no, no for me, even if it's just 100 baht for taxi.

believe me , they all were

it seems that US flag is fixed to some decent sized flag pole

Day 2 After boy left I decided to tidy myself off, got a haircut next to just closed Playboy massage then went to Thai Smile on opposite side of Silom to do some dental work, incredibly good value in Thailand. Early afternoon I was waiting for Xiluzer to show up, he stays in the same hotel and after he settled, him , his friend and me took taxi to Hero to kiss them good bye on the second last day. An atmosphere inside was not funeral like at all, just business as normal , we tried to extract some information about moving and new location but mamasans and boys were mum on the subject. I took Bun, not much English but good massage , bit rushed as usual in Hero but I made sure we had full hour together. Being in farewell mode I gave him 1300 for just 1 hr session, I guess some boys may have some period of unemployment before they settle somewhere. On our way back to Silom we resolved to repeat visit tomorrow in even bigger company as more of Xiluzer friends are arriving tonight and tomorrow. Not long ago that area of Sukhumvit had 5 massage places and now all are gone, Body Club, Guy Spa, Uniman, Banana and now Hero. Oh , well, life goes on and so do we but it’s a bit sad. Supper at Maxi, my favorite from there Namu was nowhere to be seen but his brother recognized me and smiled. In the evening another trek to Tawan since I promised Soda, #47 yesterday to pick him up tonight. Surprise, surprise and all smiles- my favorites, Od #14, Boy #15 and Tiger #28 noticed me immediately and in a second I had 3 boys around me all smiling, I couldn’t be happier since yesterday I was not sure if I will see them again. Of course it was one unhappy face, my last night companion Alek in passing told me that his heart is broken. O Gee, I’m in trouble. Jealousy raised it’s ugly face already or what? Not that I felt any regrets, after all we have another meeting fixed already, right ? Since I committed myself to taking #47 all I could do was to promise my boys I will off them sooner or later and arranged some short times during day just to keep them in gainful employment and me warmed. After the show I took Soda home, guy on reception by now probably assessed me already as serial adulterer but such is my fate in Thailand. Great body and very pleasant night although he was a bit on a sandbag side but it worked for me quite well so in the morning I happily handed over my 3000 only to meet steely look and request for 1000 more. To underline his point he even sat down in a chair firmly waiting for that extra note. I paid up , first time that much for long time. Sure I tried to haggle but I did not want to create too much tension in the beginning of my vacations, 1000 is not going to spoil my mood. I was a bit concerned that other boys in future may request the same which could lead to my termination of visits there but we will see what will happen. Breakfast alone, considering circumstances I did not invite him to accompany me, I‘m soft hearted but not that soft. And so day 2 finished on a little sour note.

but one I like the most

what do you mean "I may ", you should say right away ' I will "

report is being slowly cooked and posted , as for disappointments remember that what is acceptable for some is insufficient for others and other way arround. As far as last trip I have an issue with only one man and it was about greed , not performance. I could have with another one but he exploited skilfully soft spot in my heart I have for him.

I always ask but he is 'up to you" variety, so I paid him my usual long time rate 3000 / my appologies to those who think I'm spoiling boys / but it needs to be said some Tawan boys are staring much higher and I have two cases this trip that I finished paying more, nursing revenge in my heart. Details in report.

Day 1 After returning from trip in December, perhaps best of all my 12 trips to Thailand , it did not take long before inspired by Xiluzer and Cathay Pacific’s deep discount promotion on one frosty late January evening I booked my next one and 4 months later after long but quite bearable flight I landed for 13th time in Bangkok. It was morning arrival which I prefer to late evening ones, immigration lines weren’t long but what surprised me, this being Sunday morning, was very crowded airport train. But there is no indignity I can’t stomach to be close to Silom’s hunting grounds. For a change this time I decided to settle mainly in one hotel and acting on tip about Expedia members only early morning discount from again , Xiluzer , I secured 8 days in Raya impressed by their standards last time. But being me, I can’t stay 8 days in the same room so I split my stay between 4 nights in cheapest room and another 4 in very spacious “ executive “ or whatever they call it. Only problem with Raya is that usually they don’t let in before 2 p.m. but I dumped my suitcase in the lobby and went for a two hour stroll through vicinity including Lumpini park. Of course shortly I spotted very handsome men walking in front of me so for pure esthetic reason I just followed him and when at some point he turned his head back who he was? Sokchai, my favorite masseur from Bonny’s. I promised to visit him some day for session of mutilation. He is regular at Lumpini gym as it was not first neither last time I saw him there. I settled in the room finally , rested a bit and in the late afternoon I marched to Senso hoping I will see one of my favorites there Jack or M. Reverse bingo since neither one was there, Jack supposedly on vacations and M gone for good I was told. Only few boys there and place is no cheap but I have only good memories from Senso so I picked up new boy, Goon for no rush , usual 1.5 hr session. And it was good choice with very thorough massage which enlivened me after sitting so many hours on the plane. 1500 for the house and the same for the boy, not a cheap option but worth every penny for me. On my way back I passed by Playboy massage on Silom to find it closed for good which saddened me big time since I have good memories of their very adventurous guys . Wiping my tears and meandering through Patpong’s stalls I passed by BBB Inn to find familiar face of Tao from Banana , no longer there , though. He told me that at new location he did not have as many customers so decided to work at BBB where he was moonlighting before. Booked him for after tomorrow for a massage in the room in the middle of the night. Then I went to Oasis on Suriwong for my fix of chicken with cashew nuts, surprise , surprise. And from there to Tawan hoping all my favorites will be there. But shock, it looked as all of them took Sunday off and I found myself sitting in familiar bar but full of unfamiliar boys. It was not even very crowded and including me , only 5 farangs. Good part was that no boy paid any attention to me so I was left free to watch the show and contemplating lonely first night in BKK. Only familiar face , Soda #47, Lao boy , passed by few times not even looking at me and out of new boys , only #20, dark skinned hunk drew my attention but it was one way highway – he did not even look at me from the stage. This was not what I dreamed about my first night in Bangkok. After #20 was called over by some fossil I was sure that after the show I need to look for my luck somewhere else. But hope springs eternal. After the show fossil decided to go home alone abandoning #20 with 200 baht tip boy looked at me and smiled. Second later he was sitting beside me. In meantime Soda, #47 planted himself on another side but tonight belonged to #20, #47 was promised off next night. Shortly as midnight was drawing I made sure boy is interested in long time , we settled on tip expectancies and soon world saw us marching along Suriwong. He is half Malay, half Thai, well built but not body builder. Full lips, perky and firm buttocks, quite a catch and named Alek . Great company and fast starter – he wants to be my boyfriend, yeah, right. I told him that I will off him again in 3 days. Breakfast at Raya together, nobody blinked an eye, yet. And so day 1 was over.

yes it is , best way is to go and check for yourself. On my last trip out of 11 nights, 10 had Tawan boys as bed warmers and with some exception they did good job

was difference in exchange rates worth all this indignity of waiting and bearing with rude staff ? Sometimes we are chasing better rates going overboard, one of my friends went from Silom to some place in Sukhumvit to exchange 200 USD and only after the deed he realised that after deduction cots of getting there and back by BTS all he saved was cost of less than two cans of beer at 7/11

I guess all this mix contributes greatly to their beauty

On Wednesday I visited Tawan for a last time and was sad to see that my favorite Lao boys were missing. When asked what is going on I was whispered to that owner is expecting police visit so foreign workers did not show up for a work. Too bad they weren't as smart as Twilight boys and did not linger near the bar because at least one of them would land my long time contract. Clearly owner either had perfect gut feeling or understanding how police works wink , wink

me and flawed method? No I did not withdraw 1000 , I withdrew 13000 which is maximum I can take out daily . self imposed limit set with bank, but I calculated how much it cost me to get 1000 in any case. You are right about withdrawing small amounts being senseless, in my case 200 baht fee to Thai bank and 135 charged by my own bank so it costs 335 in fees just to get my money

During my recent trip I decided to do some research to see what means of obtaining baht are most economical, ie. how to get 1000 baht cheapest way, cheapest means costing least in my domestic currency . Here it goes in ascending order: 1. exchanging US cash purchased at home using my domestic currency at my usual place Natty Gems on Suriwong 2.exchanging my domestic currency cash at the same location 3.surprisingly perhaps, exchanging my domestic cash at the BKK airport 4. exchanging US cash purchased at home in the BKK airport 5. withdrawing cash from ATM from account at home. 6. withdrawing cash advance from credit card using ATM 7. buying baht at home. While difference was clear, good news is , difference between obtaining baht cheapest and most expensive way was 5.76 % so not exactly ruinous if I picked up consistently least efficient way to finance my whole stay. Withdrawing money from ATM caused some anxiety as on three occasion ATM actually rejected transaction for some reason so don't count on it if you are desperate ie. you need money for a tip for boy

I just stay in Ambiance for two nights last week and no issues whatsoiever. Everything works , bed linens are clean. safe operates, noise from bars minimal, staff helpful and not nosy. Slightly more expensive than similar room I usually had in LeCafe Royale but rate included breakfast for two so no complains from me.

as always it will be not worth for some and good deal for others. It always depend of what one is looking for but certainly location is perfect, rooms are spacious and everything is new. Anyone interested keeps looking for deals on at least two-three websites, for my last trip I booked on Expedia and the same deal was not available on Agoda, I checked immediately out of curiosity

We had discussion about an issue in 'Hero closing" thread, xiluzer posted series of pictures , there was some speculation about new ownership etc but for now we have what we have. Some may be tempted to try new location as some familiar faces and muscles are there. While place doesn't look great for now and not many boys migrated there so far in reality we need only one boy, either one out of 35 or just out of 5 , one will do. I visited place already twice and must say both sessions with Charoon were better than everything I remember from old location with possible exception of two meetings with O , one back in 2013 and second one on the day of closing of old venue. So here it is how to get there: 1. take BTS to Bearing station, it took us 40 minutes from Sala Daeng 2. when there take exit 3 if you are planning on taking taxi or motorsai or exit 4 if you want to walk like I did on my second visit. Station is at soi 70 and SuperHero in soi 78 so you have 4 blocks to cover, roughly the same distance like from Nana station to old location. It took me 16 minutes. 3. While marching look for an overpass , soi 78 is just before that, there's no sign but it's pretty wide street with big motorsai stand at it's mouth. When you turn into soi you will see at it's end something like small Chinese temple. 4. Keep walking toward it, when you reach it you will see that street which looked as dead end turns sharp to the left at the temple. Raise your head , you will see sign SUPERHERO on the building at end of soi , about 100 meters from where you are. It's that easy, enjoy 5. When extension of BTS will be completed , it will be even closer from the next station 6. Let us know how you liked your experience

I second what pong just said, go and see for yourself. Recommendation can be misleading since what works for one of us not necessarily must for another one. On another hand it may be unheralded boy in the line nobody noticed before who may turn to be big turn-on for you. Pictures on the websites may not be much help either , boy may not be available or even worse, in flesh may look not as attractive as in the photo

yes, I spent 8 days there back in 1993

for me it sounds straight from mid-western USA . Transylvanian name would usually end in .... escu or ..... eanu i.e. muscfairescu or muscfaireanu

I just returned home so need to fight jet lag to put myself together but at least some tears will be included and lots of monodiet close , close ! simple googling name will give a clue what is name's origin, not to mention that avatar is a giveaway
