Brent, several years ago I decided to try fishing off of fishing party boats. I had my own boats prior to this. I was a little reluctant at first because I felt I'd be going by myself. And then it occurred to me "Idiot, these boats carry 60-80 people. What do you mean you'll be "by yourself?" Now I go fishing and I meet people from all over the northeast US. Get outside of your comfort zone. The only thing limiting you is yourself. Get out of that apartment and you'll meet people just like you did in the PI. BTW, still enjoying your vlogs, my friend!

Soi LK Metro is a much more manageable bar/nightclub area. Smaller and less hectic but still has everything you might need for a night out including go go bars. Also a good day out to relax is take the ferry (or speedboat) out to Ko Lan. Nice beach with turquoise water and good food. Lastly as you’re in the neighbourhood it’s really worth checking out Cambodia. Amazing (but brutal) history. You could do Phnom Pehn and Angkor in a week easily. Also Siem Reap (Angkor) is a major expat hub.

I spent some time in Pattaya and Hua Hin last year. Pattaya is so large of an area that so much depends on where you are staying. Stay away from LK metro, walking street, and soi 6 because it's un-walkable, full of flirty LBS, smelly sewer vents, and massage. There's also way too many gents from India in packs of 5 staying multiple in rooms and just overwhelming the place. Jomtien area is a bit better of Pattaya I think but there's not much in a mall there. Hua Hin is good but again a tough spot for single western guy travel as it can be more european or thai families or their brats partying the bars like spring break. I missed my flight Sunday and wasted 1600 with EVA airways I'd be in Bangkok now.

Brent Many thanks, again glad that everything seems to be going well, have been several times before , not necessarily my scene, but hey we're all different. Glad you enjoyed the taco bell.. Interesting to hear that you're already missing the philipines... I would nevertheless recommend Chang Mai.... Also glad you received your table OK n good luck with the bank card. All the best Cheers Glenn

That's a nice looking place in Pattaya; what was the cost per night? Pattaya is often mispronounced according to my Thai ex who pronounced it Pah-tee-ya with the emphasis on the "ya." And, for some reason, she pronounced Chiang Mai "Cher-may." Also, you might have been given Tiger Balm which the Thai use to address numerous conditions; my ex even inhaled it to relieve headaches.

Pattaya is lot different from the Philippines 🇵🇭 when it comes to boom boom, It is strictly business the girl may well have went through a good number of guy's the same day before your turn. A number of girls i was having boom boom with in pattaya A lot of them were looking at their watch ⌚️ they were checking the time for their next customer. The Philippines is a lot different most girls will hang out with you for a few days a week etc, Travel around with you its more of a friends with benefits arrangement. Having said that if you go to a bar in the Philippines it will be the same as pattaya. The Philippines beats Thailand when it comes to boom boom. What you get in pattaya you can get in any city throughout the world only thing its cheaper.

Since I’ve been living in the Pattaya area, only went to walking street once in nearly 5 years! Used to go lots on trips when I was younger! Now live a much better lifestyle, life is good here and very affordable 👍. Koh Chang island is a nice laid back island to visit, it’s only about 3 hours from Pattaya. Good you got your tablet back 😊. You need to find a place to chill, all the traveling gets stressful after a while!

Definitely a happenin' place! B-u-s-y as _______ (insert your own swear word 😀). Your hotel seems super quiet by comparison to Bangla Road. I could take small doses of Bangla Road provided there's somewhere quiet to come back to and clear the head... Would be interesting to see what you'd make of Chiang Mai/Chiang Rai if you think of heading up there...
