E gates at Suvarnabhumi!
I've been experiencing some weird flight changes from BKK-KTI even though my flight is still a few months out - first Air Cambodia retimed a reasonable afternoon flight to much earlier (12:20am) which is not worth it for a 1 hour flight, luckily I got a refund (minus a few dollars), so I rebooked onto Bangkok Airways only for that flight to be cancelled. Rebooked again on Cambodia Airways so fingers crossed this one stays.

Rockstar Nene Royal of Phuket wins America's Got Talent 2026
Congratulations to Nene! I discovered her recently when mindlessly scrolling on instagram and she is incredible. Whilst her style of music isn't what I usually listen to, I am hooked and absolutely LOVE her interpretations of the songs she performs, particularly Zombie, and her stage presence is something else - she is a born performer. I wish her all the best for her future career!

Thailand 7 Eleven Musts
I am not sure, but I imagine there would be some decent places in/around Soi Thaniya, considering the clientele?

Completely agree - thank you for the insight.

Questions regarding upcoming Cambodian trip
@jimmie50 did mention the above in his last post, however I am wondering if it would be too intrusive, considering I have never met jimmie, to message my cambodian friend at Hotmale to ask 'cam' if jimmie arrived safely in Cambodia?

Thailand 7 Eleven Musts
Speaking of 7-11 Japan, I came home with quite a number of packs of those pour-over drip coffee bags that I cannot find in my country, but have found in Japan, South Korea and Taiwan. They don't sell them at 7-11 in Thailand but I have found some at Big C.

Siem Reap hotel recommendation
Thanks for the recommendation. In the end, I booked a few nights at Men's. If it's anything like Arthur & Paul in Phnom Penh, then I'll likely enjoy it very much.

You know that masculine gay guys do exist right? Let's celebrate our diversity, yeah?

Adventures of a Bangkok Rookie August 2026
I tried these sleep gummies on my last trip as I was having issues but didn't really work so I had to take more drastic measures and bought some melatonin medication from the pharmacy. However I didn't try taking the gummies when waking up too early, might experiment with that next time!

I agree with you @aaroninatl, even though the guys are stunning, they don't quite fit into my general 'type', but some of the waiters definitely do! I think they are offable?

There is a really sexy older guy at Banana, I can't remember his number but he is part of the big cock show and has a massive dong. Not quite brave to take it (yet).

For the BKK lovers - what is your 2nd favorite city for stamp collecting?
Within Thailand, Phuket surprisingly. Outside of Thailand, probably Phnom Penh.

Adventures of a Bangkok Rookie August 2026
My 'favourite' from Hotmale told me he worked at Freshboy for a very short amount of time and although there are many customers, there weren't that many offs, which is why he moved to Hotmale. I found that quite interesting.

Agree. It's a small bar that doesn't get too busy but the quality is quite good. Keeps me coming back.

Thanks for sharing your report! Sad that I missed your arrival by about 1 week but I am sure we will run into each other at some point in the near or far future!

Questions regarding upcoming Cambodian trip
You may like to have a look at the italki platform (there is a website and app) as there are some Khmer language tutors and the rates aren't too bad.

The opening of Guidos
My favourite interaction with Guido was when he called me a "young boy" when I was nearing 40 years old hehe

I found that they (reception staff) didn't even look up from what they were doing when boy and myself got off the elevator and headed to my room (when I stayed on the 5th floor).

My dismal attempt at speaking Thai.
I agree. I'm sure everyone has their reasons, but for myself, I couldn't imagine relocating to another country and not learning the language. If I end up moving to Thailand (or other) one day, I would absolutely invest the time in learning the language, even if English is widely spoken.

Weekends in Bangkok 2026
Same! I am also short and I prefer short men. For me, I feel as though logistically it is easier.
