One of the my main reasons to book.😁🤪🤣 Ohhh I haven't been much in that side of Saladeng, furthest I've been is only up to Park Silom and this seems to be just behind it. Thanks they do seem to be a full service laundry shop which I was looking for rather than a coin operated ones I've seen in the past.

Ohhh I always miss to add this to my To Do list. Thanks for the suggestion I'll try to go and club this visit with my Bangkok Arts & Culture Center trip, and later head to MBK I need my spare phone fixed with green lines on the screen...

I did deliberated over it for quite some time before I decided to which hotel to stay. All I wanted is a room to sleep on, not too small to cause claustrophobia, I did not need the swimming pool or gym, needs a have a safe box, needs to be near the BTS and MRT for easy traveling to most parts of Bangkok and connects Suvarnabhumi Airport as I like using the trains as I've seen how terrible the road traffic is. The hotel has to be in Silom as it's near gogo bars and most actions are. Has to be budget-friendly. And has to be joiner/visitor-friendly. Initially, I thought I would just stay again in The Quarter Silom but I remembered that they have issues with the AC in their room which I experience first hand on both of my previous two trips that I stayed with them in 2 different towers of the Hotel. So in the end, I booked The Raya Hotel in Suriyawong again as my base for this trip. The only thing I need to mind is my laundry. Hahahah

Basically I just plan to stay mostly in Bangkok and nearby places. On my last two trips I have been on a Temple Tour to Wat Pho, Wat Arun, the Grand palace and emerald Buddha, took the river cruise in Chao Phraya, did the floating market and the railway market tour, went up to mahanakhon skywalk, went to Yaowarat/Chinatown for Foodtrip, all touristy things. Since I'm from the Philippines, I'm already tired of going to islands or beaches. On my first day, Saturday, after checking in my hotel i'll just take a few hours rest then go to Arena for a "massage". By 18:00-19:00 I'll be heading to Rajadamnern Stadium to watch a Muay Thai match, then 22:00 or so will visit the bars in Soi 4 if Jetlag did not take its toll on me hahaha. For other following days, I may take a guided Full day tour to Pattaya City, another Full day guided your to Ayuttaya and temple ruins. May also visit the Ancient city and Erawan Museum. Another day on a Safari maybe. Visit Moo Deng. Visit Jodd Fairs. Visit Chatuchak Weekend Market for souvenirs. Another Day tour to Kanchanaburi. Will head towards Pratunam and Platinum Mall to so some shopping. Visiting some Cafes. All these things I plan to do will spread out all throughout my 10 days in Thailand with maybe a day of just rest massage and bar visits in between. 😁

I will be flying tonight and reaching BKK by tomorrow afternoon for the 3rd time visiting Thailand and as a solo traveller. Like my 2 previous short visits, I will just be doing some touristy stuff and whoring activities all throughout the week. I don't have a fixed planned itinerary but just a small note of things to try and do that I missed last few times. I like to do things on my own pace. After reading so many helpful and interesting trip reports from everyone here, it will be my turn to do so. I'll try to update after a few days after reaching Bangkok, please know that I'm not a seasoned writer so kindly understand if report is messy once it's up. So excited to be back 😁

I like it trimmed but not fully bare, just don't like having few strands stuck between my teeth hahaha 😁🤣 🤪

Where is @Olddaddy at?

Aside from the structures substandard build, I saw this video in regards to the type of land/soil Bangkok has, where it is more susceptible to the ground movement of sort. I don't know what's his qualifications are nor if his claims are backed up by science. Just sharing as a food for thought. b51d1004abc905db6e3fdfe2d8eaacb1.mp4 https://vt.tiktok.com/ZSrYyEBfv/

The center of the earthquake was in Myanmar, all neighboring countries felt the tremor. So scary .

Stay safe everyone. Also be careful and wait for the aftershocks, it could range from mild to Intense.

Woah good thing I have arranged my trip a week after Songkran and reaching after 25th April. Avoiding the crazy crowds and hopefully most if not all boys/business are already be back work after spending their holidays back home.

Thanks for this, I was wondering what those emojis actually mean in some of the guys profiles. Good to know, helps avoid accidentally joining their sessions due to ignorance. 😵‍💫😵‍💫

@bkkmfj2648 I'm sorry I can't really help you with any suggestions at the moment as I'm out of touch on everything back home. In 2010, I left the Philippines at 22yrs old and been one of the so many expats working here in Dubai, since then I have gone back only every 2 years for less than a month each time🙃🙃

@bkkmfj2648 Speaking of rain and Typhoons, have you took in consideration that we in the Philippines go through an average of 20 Typhoons every year? But I think Cebu does not get hit quite often as other part of the Philippines though.

I really enjoyed reading your trip reports and your adventures and misadventures while searching for an alternative place to retire. As a Filipino myself, you are 💯 correct. Before becoming an expat I was also like this, this way of thinking was ingrained to everyone's upbringing. Just follow and don't ask questions, otherwise you will be pointed as being disrespectful for talking back. 😵‍💫

Thank you for this trip report and the current rates for drinks and off fees. Your report have shed some light to our curiosity towards what's happening in The One. It seems that is now just an empty shell and a shadow from its former glory.

Nice, I'm not really into twinks but I like his face. I'll off him just with that alone. Thank you for another great trip report!

What was Arena's Line again? Kom did gave out his Line on my previous visit but I mistakenly used the Line account of disposable tourist sim and now it's gone 😑. If you could share, it would be much appreciated. 😁

Yeah, hope someone could help Arthur setup their social media (LINE, X, Instagram, BLUE SKY, Facebook, and the heck even TIKTOK, etc.) to establish more internet presence and awareness. Or maybe a Google review from guys who experienced ATLAS first hand.

Most probably in my room after work, same every year for the last 10 years. Holidays are just normal days for me and others working in Hotels. Especially here in Dubai, people (expats and tourists) tend flock to places with great fireworks as usual but all I see is the trouble exiting these venues, last time did I reach my flat around 5AM then worrying if I'll be able to wake up for work later that day at 9AM 😵‍💫 hahahaha

Nice, this was the usual format of Tawan shows I've seen in the past. Hope they don't tame it down soon..

Ahhhh Arthur 😍. My first off in Tawan, my first off in Bangkok/Thailand and my first bodybuilder I got to muscle worship 🤤. He and D are my favorites in Tawan, I wonder if D is also in Atlas now.. Can't wait to be back soon. 😝😝😝

I have the same sentiment. My only purpose in visiting Bangkok is for the Food, Sightseeing, and Tawan Muscle Body Builder type boys. It's sad that things are going downhill for The One/Tawan due to mismanagement and may be lack of drive from the boys themselves. Now that there is a competitor, I hope they up their game. Otherwise, they will be swept along with other bar closures and be forgotten completely. I hope I see more Trip reports of Atlas thriving.

One of the best reports I've read recently. Very informative. Hope I could write a good one too when I visit by April.
