15M is even more precise . They tell you if the person is top, bottom or versatile. But then they also list whether they are gay, straight or bi I am also dubious about just equating a provider’s willingness to bottom with them actually being gay.

The hotel got back to me. They have not reopened the massage So, there’s been no massage since Covid yet it is still listed as one of their services on their website. I guess I should not be surprised.

Any update on whether Copa Massage is open. They list it as a service that is available on their website. Anybody with any recent information?

Who took this picture? What year are we in?

I think that four hands only works if you or the two masseurs have a plan before you start.

I am glad that the Thai authorities were able to free these guys and get them back to their families in India

I agree. this is a really sad ending.

Perhaps the police bribe is cheaper???

Honestly, I would prefer that than them jumping

My brother teased me once by saying that I don’t have friends, I just know people. I still laugh about that one.

For free for a young man with a presumably hot body. I am guessing older less attractive visitors might have less success being wined and dined like this for free.

I think that IHG is sabotaging Aer Lingus. They are cutting 10% of their workforce. 11% is an outstanding profit margin, and this despite the fact that they get so much less investment than other IHG airlines. I think Aer Lingus would be better off with Air France/KLM or Lufthansa.

My one visit to Jamaica was enough for me. Nothing bad happened to me, but it was the most intense place, I had ever been. Every interaction between Jamaicans that I saw in public seemed to be on the verge of violence. I witnessed absolutely none of the laid back “hey mon” stereotype that gets tossed around. There are too many other places for me to explore.

I have been to a few places over the years where I get a feeling of being trapped. I look around and realize that I am trapped if something happens. I listen to my gut and leave.

What spa was this?

Is that a known specific issue of disruptive behavior by Indian tourists at arrival immigration? I’m just curious if there may be more method to these planed changes than I had previously been considering.

Since he has met a few of the forum members, I can’t imagine that he is the least bit concerned.

Don’t withdraw from ATM using credit card. Instant high interest. Debit cards also have Mastercard and Visa symbols, so I think that is what was meant. I always use either USAA or Charles Schwab debit cards at ATMs overseas, because they refund the ATM fees. You don’t have to already have a Charles Schwab account to open a checking account with them.

Correction I guess. It turns out that it is no longer the law exactly, but the police can come in on morals charges, so most hotels still enforce this. When I was in Vietnam, I was told that it was the law, and it certainly was the case at any hotel that we stayed in.

It was the law in 2024 when I was last in Vietnam. If it has changed, that would be an improvement.

It is against the law for a Vietnamese citizen to be in a hotel room with a foreigner. Most hotels do enforce this. They don’t really care whether two foreigners share a room, male or female, but they do care if a Vietnamese citizen wants to visit the hotel room of a foreigner.

And yet the horrible suffering they inflicted continues to affect us today.

I think that most Americans would find that setting and menu very familiar.

If your desire to teach English is more about having something to do and not abut the money, you could do language exchange instead. An hour with someone. First 30 minutes is you teaching them English and the second 30 minutes is them teaching you Khmer. They don’t need any special training. You can have magazines and children’s books and they can talk to you in Khmer like you were a very young child. It is the most effective way to learn a language. It is called language acquisition. It isn’t commercial. You get as much out of it as them and you make some friends.
