Yeah, great first post man! Thanks for sharing. I was in BKK and wanted to hit up those places further South but didn't get time, so it's great to read about them from you. Sounds like I should have gone to Phi Phi at least. I'll know where to go next time!
One place you didn't go which is worth mentioning is Pattaya. Yes, it's a bit like Patong in the sense that there are lots of pros and ladyboys around, but it has some virtues. It caters very well to the expat community (e.g. nice gym in Pattaya called Fitness 7 full of expats; pattayawhey.com will deliver protein supplements same-day; expat-focused supermarket in Central Festival, etc.), it actually has nice-ish beaches (particularly on Koh Lan which is easy to get to), the air quality is better than BKK, it's cheaper, and there are lots of fun girls there. Many of the girls inevitably are either pros, or tried to be pros at one point, but there are lots of girls there who aren't, and just live or work in the area, and it can be a fun place to hang with those types. Skip the beer bars and the go-go clubs, avoid Walking St, try to ignore all the old European men and let them have their fun, and you can still have a lot of fun of your own. I was there for about a week and had four nice experiences, all through online. One was fantastic, a super fun good-looking girl who met me at my hotel and totally reminded me of someone I once had a crush on. One girl who had a regular job in the area, who was a bit shy but we still had fun, good looking and extremely nice (she drove me around all over Pattaya in her car). Another girl who was semi-pro but very cute, friendly, and affectionate. One girl who wasn't great looking but we still had fun. It's very close to Bangkok, just a few hours by bus door-to-door, look up Bell Travel Service. Worth a few days at least if you're in Bangkok and looking for a change or to get out of the city without paying through the nose for a flight to Phuket or Krabi.![[Image: smile.gif]](https://rooshvforum.network/images/smilies/smile.gif)
