Another three nights in Bangkok

[FunFifties]

I have only started exploring SE Asia a few years ago, but from my two trips so far (this being the third) where Bangkok has been the anchor at the beginning and at the end of the trip, I have come to the conclusion that Bangkok is the perfect first stop for me. 

 

Day one

Arrived early morning, no queues at the migration desk. I had completed the digital arrival card, but was not asked to show any documentation, so I assume it was in the database along with my fingerprints from previous visits.

 

Stayed at the Quarter Saladaeng. Nice location. Smallish room, even though I had booked a junior suite. Gym and pool with changing facilities I could use while they were getting my room ready. Decent breakfast with egg station and freshly cooked Asian options and not so interesting industrial grade Western options. Visitor friendly, and no key card required for the lift, which was very convenient since I had a couple of repeat hook ups and a regular from previous visits.

 

After freshing up, I set out on an expedition of grooming and massage with happy ending. I found a nearby nail salon where I had a manicure and a pedicure. Next stop was S’Sense for a two hour hot oil massage. Massage was excellent as always and extras was the best body-to-body massage I have experienced so far. The Masseur very skilfully used his thighs and buttocks to make it feel almost like intercourse though there was no actual penetration. I can share his name in a message if anyone is interested. He didn’t mention a minimum tip when he offered the body to body massage, but he seemed pleased with the 2000 I gave him and proceeded to give me an extra head and neck massage after I tipped him. 

 

Came back to the hotel to get my room that was now ready and opened Grindr. Back home, Grindr is practically broken, with 60-70 percent of taps and messages seeming to come from fake profiles, scammers or alleged Only Fans content creators.

 

Not so in Bangkok! I got plenty of messages from genuine guys who wanted to meet me. So late afternoon/early evening I had a visit from an early twenties twinkish top who just got off work. While we chatted he requested a tip of 1000 and I agreed. He wanted to come directly to my room, but as a precaution I met him outside. I didn’t have to, he was even cuter than his photo. We had a nice round of sex and agreed to keep in touch for a possible rematch the day after.

 

I had a nice early dinner at Mango Tree and some mango sticky rice on my way back to the hotel where I laid down to have a good long night’s sleep to hopefully cure my jetlag.

I will be great fun. If you could send me the name of the S'sense master. I am coming to Thailand in December and looking for Body to body massage. Thank you.

Day  two

I managed to catch 10 hours of sleep so goodbye jetlag! I had no specific plans, considered trying out the 1-0 Sauna, but Grindr kept me very busy.   

 

First meet up was with a twinkish mid-30’s guy from Myanmar. We met in Lumpini Park for a chat and a walk and then went to my hotel for two rounds of good sex.  

After we said goodbye, I went out for a coffee, a walk, and a bit of shopping in and around Silom. I came by Patpong Road as they were setting up the stalls for the Night Market. I thought it was quite a well choreographed spectacle and I am including a video as I suspect some of you are night owls or vampires who may never get a chance to see it with your own eyes

 

While I was out and about, I was in communication with early twenties guy from yesterday and he agreed to come over again after work. We had another round of good sex and exchanged whatsapp numbers in the hope that we may meet again next time I am in town.

 

A few hours later I had another hook up that was arranged  earlier in the day. This time a late 30’s Thai guy. Also very good sex.

 

All of that copulating had given me a nice appetite, so I had a nice deep fried fish and a side of stir fried spinach at Patpong Night Market. After dinner I had a beer at Balcony bar in Soi 4. The street was slowly warming up for the evening and I considered watching the 9 pm show at Circus. However, someone I have been meeting everytime I have been in Bangkok and who is joining me on some of my onward journey, asked me if I wanted to meet this evening already, instead of the evening after as we had previously agreed.

 

He came over and my day was concluded with another round of sex and a sleepover.

 

Day three

Sleepover guy had to leave early for work and we agreed to meet again for dinner. In the meantime, the weather forecast was predicting thunderstorms, so I decided to spend the day in and around the hotel. Went to the Gym, had a swim in the pool and did some reading by the pool. 

 

I didn’t feel the urge to check Grindr until mid afternoon, but somehow managed to secure two hook ups before dinner. One early thirties Thai guy who impressed me by coming two times in a very short span of time and one early thirties Laos guy, who was all right, but the least memorable of my meets so far.

 

Met my regular for dinner at Khao-So-i Soi Convent Silom. They serve excellent North Thai/Laotian noodles in a thick broth and we also had some very nice dumplings and some Thai desserts, that I don't remember the names of.

 

We went back to the hotel for another sleepover before our journey onwards to Taiwan the next day. Maybe I will continue the trip report in the Taiwan section. 

 

Once again Bangkok delivered as my first stop in South East Asia and as a destination in its own right.

I am exhausted just reading about your adventures!!!   Your stamina is not only amazing but almost on the verge of mind-boggling.  

[Travellerdave]

Great enjoyable account of your 3 day visit to Bkk which I loved reading. My last three trips have been to Pattaya, latterly staying in the Complex, so I’m planning to make my next one to Bkk, so your story of sex/massage, gym exercise, food and the night market is very relavent for me. All the activities I enjoy in fact !. Grindr seems to have been a fruitful source of mb’s.

Have an equally good time in Taiwan.

After his success, it seems like I might need to reconsider downloading the app onto my phone before going.  Always avoided using it before, but it sounds as though it might be useful in Bangkok.

FF, were all the grindr meets MBs, as dave suggested?

Just the early twenties guy who asked for a 1000 b tip and the masseur. All other hook ups were non-transactional. I put "No MB please at the beginning of my bio". I pay my regular's fare, hotel and board when travelling with him, but he doesn't expect anything beyond that.

Do you use your face in Grindr. Do most of the guys you meet in Grindr also show face or is it one of those where you have to talk first? Send photos back and forth. Do you initiate or you let them initiate. Not the best with Apps

I am out and use face pictures on my profile and make sure I see theirs before meeting. If you take a photo in the app there is a Grindr water mark added to it. I usually let them initiate contact.

I use Grindr in Bangkok,  and have good success. I only look for boys with pictures. To deal with a comment  from  another member, I don't have my picture on my Grindr entry.

They done that to me last week 

A guy at the front desk with glasses on , I ended up having a argument with him 

I booked the junior suite not a small room, they ended up changing me to the room I booked 

They tried me though ,not this little black duck 🦆

@FunFifties you must be in great physical shape or very handsome to be able to get so many positive Grndr hookups without needing to pay. But even though they didn't charge you, you were kind enough to pay for taxi.

I am reasonably fit for my age, but not sculpted or anything like that. I consider myself quite average, but more than a few Asians have called me handsome, so I guess I fit the mold of what many Asian guys find handsome. I usually wear a collared shirt and chinos or shorts that are more city than beachy. That also seems to play into the Farang Fantasy sometimes

U r also attractively modest (-:

Kudos

I have written several times before that there have always been plenty of guys in Bangkok happy to meet up with westerners on a no MB basis. The problem with some is that they are students or work and so hook-ups might have to wait til the evenings or days off. in my wandering days pre-covid, I only ever met one who was considerably older than his photo and I did not particularly enjoy the coffee with him - best always to meet first outside hotel or apartment. That particular assignation ended there with my giving him his transport money.

On the other hand, I fully accept that some visitors believe an MB experience gives greater satisfaction and at a time suitable to them. One does not rule out the other.
