Honor: A Lesson Learned

While drinking in a Pattaya beer bar one night, I met a young, farm fresh 19-year-old who claimed it was her first night (Yeah, don’t they all). Reinforcing this claim however, was the fact that we needed the translation services of the other girls since she spoke so little English.

Despite limited formal communication, we still got on quite well (think: squeals of delight). She was the picture of the proverbial girl-next-door: enthusiastic with no pretensions. (more…)

So Where Are The Pictures?

Every so often a Reader asks, “Great eBook, but why aren’t there any pictures in it?”

It’s true, there are no pictures in the Why Thailand Guide.

There are millions of websites to find pictures, such as this one

But there are a couple problems:

First, rather than making yet another picture site, you’ll gain more by having the tools to help make your time in Thailand the best it can be.

Second, they’re pictures.

And looking at pictures misses the point. The whole idea of the Guide is for you to go where the girls are and to have a good time. (Of course, you could make your own pictures, but that’s another topic.)

Breaking News: Penthouse Hotel Prohibits Sheep!

The Penthouse Hotel (Pattaya, Soi Pattayaland 2) now prohibits sheep from accompanying you to your room!

(Sorry, New Zealanders, but there are limits. Though if sheep are your thing, take a look at Adult Sheep Finder)

Background
Soi Pattayaland 2 (aka Soi 13/4) is must-do Pattaya experience.

There are wall to wall gogos, lit up like giant Christmas trees, with touts coaxing you to enter their respective establishments. And just to show how fair Thailand is, there are both boy, as well as girl gogos (think Sodom and Gomorrah and you’re not far off the mark). (more…)

Getting the Most From Soi 6

Soi 6 is Pattaya’s brothel street. It’s a whoremonger’s wet dream (and that’s saying something). Take a walk of lust.

Countless women of all shapes and all willing. Be prepared to be catcalled and virtually attacked by the bargirls lining the street. It’s a veritable gauntlet, especially at night. (Why can’t it be like this back home?)

Soi 6 makes Walking Street look like the Vatican, if such a thing is possible.

Yes, this is the street where not only can you get blowjobs on the premises; you can get them in full view of other patrons (an exhibitionist’s fantasy). (more…)
