yeah they def do not win any favor points in animal rights. I actually got a Singapore based Dolphin rescue group to release a captive dolphin on Samui that was being kept in the swimming pool of a hotel. http://www.cwiftp.co.uk/web_files/CWTimes_Sum06_web.pdf One of my prouder moments!

My farang friends and I would talk smack about the King all time,not so much cuz we meant it,but rather to watch their Thai g/f's get all miffed. But truthfully he shouldve done something long ago about the stray situation,afterall he is the richest monarch in the entire world...

that reinforces the whole point of this thread...one hour foot massage capped by neck,shoulder and face massage is about 200 baht=6.00 usd

yeah the strays are awful,I adopted 2 and theyre back home in my place in Nong Khai. I used to rant on and on as to why the king didnt shell out some of his endless $ and gather up all the strays and fix them,as he supposedly has some strays of his own. So you were out by Jatujak?

Yup!And yeah u r a prude;)

I havent sussed it out here so I cant answer that,but I will say that even in Vietnam the foot massages given paled in comparison to those in Thailand.. If given by someone who knows reflexology they first bathe your feet in warm water with lime slices and orchid petals,then give a gentle hand...

Hanoi is a bit too ummmm..."communist" for my tastes.Apparently all the police in HCMC are brought in from the north. I never made it to Samet,as I lived on Samui for 4 years. Where in BKK did you live?

pure unadulterated bliss.....

Agreed Bangkok is like any other big city,dirty,smelly and traffic from hell. The con artists lurking behind any business endeavor sounds quite similar to here. And for the record I have zero attraction to Asian girls and the closest I get is my weekly foot massage.

Qwerty can you kindly tell us how much time you have spent in SE Asia and which cities ,provinces and countries you lived in?

The "poor" people to which you refer are the ones with brightest and most genuine smiles.Based upon your uninformed responses Id venture to guess youve never been to SE Asia,and if you have,never made it outside of NANA Plaza. I guess we cant all be as interesting as you

I dont recall ever saying there werent friendly Argies,because I have met quite a few.I have also met some real asshats here too.In comparison to Thailand(which is this threads topic) Argentina lags far behind. Thailand's nickname is LOS AKA Land of Smiles...and thats not just for the happy...

I had spent time in Brasil about 5 years ago and had a great time and I had grown bored in SE Asia and was looking for a change. A client of mine already had someone in Sao Paulo so I figured BsAs was the next best thing...... In hindsight,Argentina and Brasil share a common border,but not...

I was there for 5 years before coming here,including the coup when they originally overthrew then PM Thaksin Sinowatra,alot of it was press hype,making it look like the entire city was a battle zone and that wasnt the case at all. Regardless I will be chilling along the Thai/Laos border in the...

I live in a one bedroom apt and pay the same here that I paid for a 5 bedroom 5 bth house in Bangkok ATMs everywhere that are never out of $ and are always working. Really,I would say 75% of the time I visit my closest Banco Franco their ATM is closed for maintenece and when it is...

You should check out Koh Lipe down near the border of Malaysia,its still pretty much undeveloped and the water is amazing. I did Phi Phi once and the entire beach was littered in German men in Speedos...I wasnt expecting to see Leonardo DiCaprio running around,but the reality of it vs. the...

His site appears to be down,do you have a contact #?

haha,if you know of an abundance of ATMs that are always working and full of cash 24 hours a day in BsAs let the rest of us know where! The pros should def convey that im NOT talking about BsAs

Since my Espanol skills are severly lacking im going (hopefully) tomorrow to see if I can get it done,if I cant dont be surprised if I take you up on your offer!:)
