X-Boys show 10:00.

Vietnam Embassy in Bangkok? Yes it is probably packed thru next week. I get my visa there and usually takes a couple of days. I'm sure now it would take a week. But the lines to drop off passport and application moves real fast. I know a lot of Vietnamese boys in Soi Twilight. Many of them left this week because they go by bus and they were having problems getting tickets next week. I was talking to 1 boy that is going Hanoi to Ho Chi Minh City next week and can't get a train ticket. The Vietnamese press has said this will be the biggest New Years for travel in history as the economy is growing and more people working. I'll have to do a visa run to Hanoi, but I can wait till March.

Be careful doing a visa run to Vietnam next week. Tet is coming up and the travel mess has started as all Vietnamese want to get home by Feb 1.

Thanks for the kind words. I arrive at 7am on Feb 1. Ggobkk, maybe we can do breakfast at the airport, me arriving you leaving. I know time is getting close as my Line accounts are starting to light up as boys are hoping I will come earlier. Having many Vietnamese friends, they are all heading home next week for Vietnam New Year and hoping to get a little financing before they go. With this being a 3 month trip, I can use a little money saving at the beginning. Hot Male will do well.

Last year there were a few dragon parades on Surawong and they came into Soi Twilight. Lots of firecrackers. It was a very busy night .

Their more typical than not.

Most of the special shows are performed by just 1 or 2 boys. They are going to take a night or 2 off every week. You just have to make sure they are working on the nights your going.

It may not be weird to wonder about it, but the personal finances of any member of this forum is absolutely none of your business, unless it is offered to you.

People talk about having to buy Boy drink, buy Mamasan drink, pay many tips every time somebody looks at you. Has anybody ever been kick out of a bar because they don't buy somebody a drink?

Your not going to find slim, skinny boys at DreamBoys. It's not what they offer.

My understanding is at the outdoor bars, boys get an average of 20 baht per drink and indoors an average of 50 baht per drink.

What Boy Togo did you go to ? All that I go to, boys earn money from drinks. I have seen a couple of reports that some Mamasans request a fee, but I know none of my working friends have had to do this.

I go to DreamBoys and enjoy myself.

I'm doing Qatar from Miami-Doha-Bkk the end of Jan. My first trip on the ME3. It's 5 hours faster than going west thru Hong Kong, so thought I would give it a try.

Yes...5 on one street. Soi Twilight. Block long walking street. Bars, clubs and restaurants. Jupiter, Screwboys, Tawan...Across the street, all within 1, no more than 3 blocks. Very easy access to all. Most of the gay scene on Surawong and Silom are walkable.

Tawan will definitely have bigger guys and I think you will find ample supply of bigger boys at DreamBoys. I was at DreamBoys a couple of times last week and was surprised at the amount of definition showing up on the boys. Jupiter may have a bit of muscle. They have a bit of a reputation of bad customer service, but I've talked to a few guys that hired there recently and are having better results. They fill the bar everynight.

You will find muscular and toned at Tawan Bar, but yes, Asians aren't typically 6'. Most bars and clubs have a mix of boys. Some small twinks and some athletic builds. Asians are discovering the gym, but your not going to find in Thailand what you find in Brazil. But unless you have a really closed mind as to what you want (6'2") body builder type, you will find what you want and have a good time.

With the current govt, they want SIM cards registered, so yes, bring your passport.

I lost them from my condo also . Was there in Sept, gone in Nov.

I'm not sure about Portuguese, but it's great for Thai. My BF is Vietnamese and I can communicate with all his friends with it. Its a Chinese ap, so I have never looked up how many languages it covers.

I use WeChat. I like it because it translates your texts . Makes conversations easier.

Exactly....you will never get it.

Why do you have such a problem understanding that most of us don't care what others think or say when we go to Thailand. What is the answer that you actually want to hear?

I was at Fresh Boys on Tuesday also. I was probably one of the 3 customers you saw. I agree with you about the quality of boys. Highly recommend #6. He is a good friend of mine and I've offed him many times. Glad you enjoyed your time there.

This past weekend was a bit slow as it was Kings Birthday. But the high season crowds have been arriving. DreamBoys is full every night. Fresh Boys and X-Boys is full on weekends, and decent crowds on week days. They have still pulled back a bit on the Shows due to the King, but seems to get a little better each week. Great selection of boys everywhere. Best I've seen it in years. The selection of boys tonight at Prince was as good as I have ever seen. Don't know where all these boys are coming from, but I'm having a lot of fun.
