Warm greetings from Thailand

Post by Henke »

Hi guys.
Henke here in Thailand until next sunday.
If you haven't been to Thailand already you should definately go. This is so, so lovely. Warm weather, kind people, good food, great parties, lots of great stuff to see and do. I just can't get enough of it.
I'll post some pictures when I get home and tell you guys more about it.

Take care!
Cheers

My husband spent a few days there when he was in the Navy, and loved it too. Have a great time, and be safe.

Look forward to those pictures....

Were you able to hook up with piper Ausdag (<A HREF="http://home.iprimus.com.au/ausdag/">David Goldworthy</A>)? I believe he is still living and working in Thighland.

This has nothing to do with Thailand, but I once was introduced to a Ladyboy who was IN the US Navy. I didn't ask...but "he" was tellin'!!!

Okay guys I'm back, sadly.
I could easily have spent a month or more in Thailand if I had the possibility.
The last night before we went to the airport, I was walking up and down the beach alone in the dark, just thinking about how fast it had all gone. In the buss to the airport I was watching the enviroment, buildings and signs moving past outside, trying to soak it in one last time. At the airplane I was staring at the monitor with a map of the route with Phuket moving further and further away. When I stepped off in Sweden, it felt like I could do anything to be back again, just 11 hours since I left.
That's how much I liked it there.

The pics will have to wait though since I don't seem to have my USB-cable here, but I'll definately post them as soon as I can.

Flyingcursor, yeah, the girls are pretty as hell. However, prostitution is quite a problem, so if you hook up with a thai girl at a club, especially if the club is otherwise pretty touristy, she might be a prostitude.
But if you find a good girl, well, nothing could be greater. I found 2 :D

About the kathoey thing, I saw quite a few, but didn't have a problem distinguishing them from the real thing. Typically, if you find a girl who's wearing red or blue latex outfit, LOTS of makeup, and is almost as tall as you, don't hit on it, no matter how pretty. I don't think kathoey's go to normal clubs dressed as normal girls, at least not the ones I saw.
You could always try the bowling grasp to be on the safe side :lol:

Anyway, please stay tuned for pics and stuff. And thanks all for reading.

Cheers
