Hey i wonder can i contact you directly about one question that keep me thinking all the time

[@darkbrother8516]

1- don't open a bar business (8 out of 10 fail eventually), 2- don't settled on one girlfriend and move her in with you right away (and don't get marry), 3- don't buy a condo (condos depreciates like a new car in Pattaya), 4- don't live on a budget that you can't afford in the long run, 5- don't disrespects the Royal Family.

Concerning point #4, In 2011, I went to Pattaya for my first 4 week stay. Went to a village (because of a girl of course) to stay with her and her parents. Absolutely horrible experience where mosquitos treated my body as their own personal buffet (shocked I didn't get dengue fever), slept (for maybe an hour or 2) on a hard floor, disgustingly saw papa slaughter a pig and served a part of the pig I had no interest in eating (but ate and later threw up due to "saving face"), and having to take a dump in a hole in the ground outside in the dark (was scared to death that a snake would rise from the hole and bite me in the butthole). Me and the chick ended up going our separate ways as I insisted on spending only 1 night there and getting the hotel room as soon as the sun came up. She said I would insult her family by doing that and I didn't give a crap and left. Haven't been back to a village since. Do I sound like a western snob? Of course I do, but truth of the matter is that as an adult, I have never had any desire to visit or stay in the poor areas of America, so why the hell would I want to do so in Thailand? Once was enough for me. I've been staying in Central Pattaya every year since and have been very happy doing so.

[@marksallai2289]

lol a real eye opener that I had a Similar experience in another country and was shocked at how poor these people live I slept in a bed that must have been used thousands of times and was sunken in the middle it was so hot and sweaty at night and the dogs lol they had dogs everywhere tied out in the open on rope and the barking kept me awake all night I was completely exhausted and worn out - but the people where wonderful friendly and I was made very welcome

My first trip was at 23... It's life changing! I've spent 50% of my time there (Other parts of Thailand) since (For 12 years) and wouldn't want it any other way. I'd definitely recommend going young rather than waiting to go post divorce at 50 etc. Pattaya isn't my first choice as a place to live but as a place for a few weeks each year with friends, it is the greatest place on earth!

Spot on trev, they call new york the city that never sleeps, but i think pattaya is the city that never wakes up! It's a place in a perpetual dream world. The drinking thing why not have lots of soft drinks and have the odd beer here or there, it will help you have much better conversations and not make a fool out of yourself. Respect others 100 percent and that includes bar girls they offer services but they are not property they are human too. We would not treat a taxi driver or landlords who work in the service industry disrespectfully, so respect bar girls. Ladyboys if you like them treat with them respect if your not into them Try have some empathy for them and the condition they was born with its not a easy life. And they have as much a right to a good life as the rest of us. Blessing guys!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

[@Mataios_World]

being here longer term the beauty of every night being a saturday night is i can choose 1 night a week or fortnight to go out & enjoy myself (week night or weekend) most nights im content to stay in my condo, do my work online, have a couple of cold beverages & watch sports matches online etc. during the day i like to stick to a routine of daily exercise walking along the beach & that is 7 days a week without fail, everything is best enjoyed in moderation 😌

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Spot on mate

[@randym7692]

I was in Pattaya once back in the mid 80's when I was in the navy. My ship pulled in for a week. Absolutely loved the place, I was in my early 20's then. I was stationed in Subic Bay at the time so I was well familiar with all the bar girl tactics. Actually wound up marrying a bar girl from the Philippines and have been married to her for 37 years. Always tell myself that if anything happens to her or she boots me out, I'm headed straight to Pattaya. Of course at 60 years old now it will be at a much slower pace and like the gentleman in the video says, I won't be falling in "love" with the first bar girl I run into. My approach would be one night stand then on to the next girl. Guys on the ship I was on brought their wives to Pattaya, I was like "Dude, that's like bringing your own sand to the beach."

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Wow nice one mate

[@DSbadger10]

My advice is to feel free to pace yourself on the drinking. If your like me and by the time drink 3 rolls around and your feel real good, keep the feeling going by slowing down, go ahead and drink something non alcohol. If your buying LD's, no one will mind at all. Secondly, remember the girls are as human as you. If your keeping your girl for fun trips to Koh Larn or just day time cite seeing, and you do this for days, she MIGHT get a little bit attached. And then if you have them on day four or five and now you want to be alone or try new company, she is not going to like it. It could be drama you didn't need. There is something we call the three day rule, if it goes over three days, you might be getting more drama than you need. I never go over 2 days any more because of the drama. If they leave some stuff behind in your hotel room or air BNB apartment, she didn't forget it. She is marking her territory and you have her thinking she is coming back tonight for sure. When you use the words you want her to leave most of the time she will storm off and leave you alone. Tip 3, try to not go and bar fine someone else from her bar that very night. Try not to do that.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Gotcha mate

Wise words, Trev👍As we all know, this vid could easily be '40 things to be aware of'. I've been visiting Pattaya since 2011. Pity there wasn't KZbin walkarounds, guidance, advice, do's n don'ts available to view 12 years ago. Back then, I used Google maps and TripAdvisor reviews to research accommodation, bars, restaurants and nightlife!

Just came back from Thailand a few days ago and visited Pattaya for the first time in august and I love the city, it's not really for a younger man such as me and had some odd encounters but I was there with my uncle and he knew people there. But I agree that the city does overwhelm your senses when you are there for the first time and I avoided any real problems except for a woman in her late 40's who liked younger men who kept chasing me everytime I walked by a certain bar that shall remain nameless.

Trevor what you didn't mention is it's addictive and it's life changing . Onece you have been to Pattaya the first thing you will do when you get home is book your next trip. I came out for the first time at 30 years old and it changed my life. Now I'm 47 and all I do when I'm in England is work for 3 months at a time and then come back. As for the girls you are 100% correct. It actually took me 13 years before I found a good one! But one thing I'm not proud to admit is in 17 years and the 50 + times I've been to Pattaya is the furthest away from Pattaya I've been is koh larn island.!

[@NDemanuele1]

I lived in Thailand for about 2 years to teach English and Math. I was in my early 30s. I love Thailand - the people and the culture. I learned a lot while I was there - great experience! I did drink a lot and eat a lot - also love Thai food (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks, etc..) I loved the nightlife and felt safe for the most part - I was cautious but relaxed. Had a lot of fun and I can say from personal experience it is so true what Mr. 'Buzzin Pattaya' stated - "Everyday is a Saturday night". It gets addictive to go out because it's so enjoyable interacting with the Thai people, etc. Reflecting back, I'm tempted to live there again but would have to be more settled. I'd love to be a Digital Nomad there and live somewhere that is not as busy, relaxing, and is close enough to a city if I need to. During my time there I lived in Songkhla, Surrathani, and Chiang Rai. I really loved Chiang Rai and the North. I did grow tired of the heavier tourist areas but still loved the liveliness of BKK! Everything you said is accurate! All the Bar Girl etiquette is 1000% true. I do have to say if you're staying for awhile, it's a good idea to meet a nice girl out of the bar scene to keep away from the negative aspects associated with it. As I stated, the bar scene could turn into an addiction because Thais are so charming and pleasant to be around. Definitely have to find a balance if you stay there for the long term, even for the short term. Regarding Pattaya, when I was there it had a very negative reputation for obvious reasons. Personally, it was too much for me because my impression was a ginormous brothel! I had a friend who came to visit me that was a straight laced Marine. He told me that he was going to Pattaya and I immediately advised not to go. He then told me he has a friend that owns a bar there. So I thought he was in good hands. Within a day of arriving he texted me saying he needs to get out of there!....LOL. Also, I used to read the BKK Post everyday and there seemed to always be an incident reported. The most memorable one I read was that locals were setting up traps for farang on motorbikes to clothesline them with wire. Very scary. Perhaps these days it's different there? Unfortunately, I was involved in an unforeseen incident in the South. Back in 2006 there was an insurgency attack in Hat Yai and luckily I took a little shrapnel in my arm - could've been much worse. I was very lucky. Nevertheless, I'd return because I love Thailand so much!

Great call on the research. One thing everyone should look at is whether certain Thai holidays will be observed during their visit. The very first time I was staying in Thailand, I was laying over in Bangkok on my way to Siem Reap. Two nights, one day. Spent hours researching BKK. Best places to stay combined with where I should go and what I should do, etc. Get to my hotel at 7pm for my first nights stay and there is a sign at the desk saying tomorrow is the last day of Buddhist Lent and that all the bars and some restaurants will be closed! Needless to say all my preparations, at least for “nightlife”, were out the window. Went to the closest bar and pounded them down. Now, if one is coming out for more than a couple days, the holiday closures can give them the time to do the side visits you suggested. Just an additional thing to look out for when visiting.

They had many girls. But then they got into trouble. Becoming suckers. They fall in love too fast. Become vulnerable. Be smart. Use your brain!!! Not what’s in between your legs. At least not so much. What’s in between your legs can be put later. But first you use your brain! Remember, like what was mentioned in this video, it IS a business. It’s ALL about the money! It is.

Trev, good advice is to use the girls heartbreak stories to your advantage, I met a bargirl in the wonderful bar on road 2 who told me she hadnt been home in 2 years (Laos), so I said I'd take her, I got to visit a new country and live in a village up the mountains for a week, great craic and only cost me 100 baht as a courtesy to her mother, I was treated like Borat (King of the castle) and the first farang they ever saw, my face was touched a million times 🤣🤣

[@paulietv2162]

Well, that's fine if you plan on having a more serious relationship with her but if you plan on dumping her straight afterwards just bear in mind she will lose face big time in front of all her friends and family if she has introduced you to them all as her boyfriend/potential husband.

MUCH CHEAPER than western countries and good quality work. Very convenient. I saved a lot of money getting new glasses and dental cleaning my last trip. Another thing. HYDRATE. Keep your electrolytes up because you will sweat. Just hydrate it helps. And yes, research. It made my first trip much easier. As for relationships. Remember this. You can take the girl out of the bar, but it is hard to take the bar out of the girl. Know many stories. That said, Thai ladies are pretty wonderful and there are very many ladies who don't work in the bar who are open to meeting new people. Be respectful. Good info in general.

Timing is great point. I first went out Thailand Phuket, in 1998. Didn't return until I was 39 in 2014 in Pattaya. Now done the last 9 years of trips. Pattaya is a truly amazing small city. Ive been to Ho Chi Minh, walking street there lacked the same soul, fun and good times of Pattaya. Great advice in video BTW

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thanks for sharing your experience with us mate much appreciated

[@theguynextdoor4978]

In other words: Don't leave your common sense at the airport at home, don't drink every single day and ask yourself the following question: Would you date a prostitute that you met in a brothel at home? if the answer is no. You wouldn't do it in Thailand either. Better be too careful, than scarred for life. The ironic thing is that a Thai girl actually liked when I said: I'm just a normal guy. Not trying to impress anyone, and I'm just enjoying life. She then told me that so many men lie to impress.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Gotcha mate

[@TheOtherMJ_76]

All good advice. Hopefully the listeners will take heed. I’ve been to the Buzzin bar in Tree Town and plan to visit your bar in Soi Pot hole soon. 😁👍

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Cheers mate

[@uncrooked]

lol pattaya is the biggest brothel in the world - thats why i love it

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Haha

[@dcooper5982]

“Keep it real”, nice and simply stated. I have gone to Thailand numerous times and many years and spent lots of bills, partying. Its a rush. Just like a drug. Totally fun but at the end of it, you’re right back where you started. Now I have become wiser and pumped the brakes. Finding a compatible girl, and enjoying the night at a relaxing pace is much easier. Mentally, physically, emotionally and of course financially.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Cheers mate

[@ericzhu8222]

well done, mate! Congratulation!

[@a.j.stanley3641]

Wise words Trev, i wish i had known all of this 25 years ago.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thanks mate

[@Ron-rk6iz]

Great honest advice. The biggest problem is alcohol, if you control that ( which is hard in Pattaya / Bangkok ) you have 75% less chance to fall into all these traps as mentioned rightfully by Trev. The people I have experienced over decades in Thailand and lost it completely were 100% heavy drinkers, they lost their health, and their money ended up in jail, and had constant girlfriend problems. Nondrinkers or controlled drinkers run into problems too, however, their reaction is different. They learn from it, whereas a daily heavy drinker "never seems to get it". " Your problem is not the problem, your reaction is".

[@harryhunter114]

I'll 2nd that.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Cheers mate

[@blindfury7160]

I went to a village near Sakon Nakhon, so basic life but everyone so happy, kids no real toys or technology, but all you can hear is them having fun all day. got woke at 5am everyday by hundreds of chickens lol

Cool

Do not make the mistake in traffic, if somebody flashes his frontlights to think it means that he give way to you / let you go first ! It means the opposit: Make way and go byside

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Yeah well said

[@benito1977]

Only been watching the channel about a year and find all these videos informative. Also good to see tou looking well on the fat to fitty, always good to see someone knuckle down and see the results. Stay lucky

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Cheers mate much appreciated

[@nigelcb1300]

Entertaining and informative, keep up the good work!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Much appreciated!

[@genericdeveloper3966]

Very sound advice. Though I still don't quite understand the popularity of Pattaya, I found it to be just too much. It is the Jezebel capital of Thailand.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

I get ya mate

[@mohlaihel6557]

Hey bro, thanks very much for the great advices, you are a fantastic. Is the non-alcoholic beer available in Pattaya’s bar? Thanks

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thanks mate and yes it's available

[@paulietv2162]

In Pattaya for two weeks, especially in the early visits there is NO WAY I would even want to waste one minute travelling to a dump like Bangkok or Rayong, I can not think of a bigger waste of time mate, but each to their own. As for the islands, sure when you've been to Pattaya 5 or 6 times and you want something a bit different, yeah, but only when you have a girl you want some 'quality time' with for a few days to get it out of your system.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Lol guess you've never been to these areas as there are so cracking places to visit

[@paulietv2162]

@@Buzzinpattaya You can guess that if you like Trev, but you would be completely wrong mate. I just think they are dumps, and 1 hour of a holiday spent in Pattaya is worth 20 hours spent in either of those places

[@julianroberts698]

Very helpful and interesting video Trev. Been loving the tik tok video's

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Glad you enjoyed it

Pattaya is the benidorm of Thailand

[@chaophraya8003]

Pattaya is said to be the worlds biggest brothel without a roof

[@paulmiller9997]

I'm catching up on videos as I've just booked my next trip (last one October 2023). If I had discovered Pattaya in my 20s, I'd probably be dead by now! 555. I discovered it at 35, and it was a perfect time, in my opinion. Sadly it was just before COVID, so I had a couple of trips, then a very depressing few years when I was just getting my stride, but couldn't return. I agree that early 20s is a very bad time to discover how awesome the city is!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

haha me too mate

[@danedwards6094]

I didn't fall in love my 1st time and definitely won't the 2nd time. I enjoy the variety too much. A veteran Ex-Pat told me my 1st day in Pattaya that you pay the girls to leave not stay

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Cheers mate

[@bullruncrypto1503]

Really like your show…such a great guy.👍🏼

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thank you kindly

[@davidlacey3792]

Don’t fall In love ! I’m not criticising but your married so you must of fallen In Love

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Difference is I didn't fall in love in two weeks on holiday and my wife is at. Abar girl she worked in a Real Estate office

[@riichardstockdale780]

You sure about the floating market Trev? You are right. So many great places around Pattaya. I went to Bangkok for 3 days, went to Buddha mountain, big buddha, Koh Larn, Tiger Park, Chinese Museum. I reaĺly tried to embrace it and it was amazing.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

I happened the night after I finished shed editing, markets back open on Tuesday

[@Ghost_Rider_786]

I've never been to Thailand - With all the drinking that goes on .... Does it often kick off at kicking out time ? Like it does on a Saturday night in most city centers over here ?

[@Buzzinpattaya]

No mate it's all good here

[@richardwoodhouse8397]

Yes it does but not necessarily at kicking out time, there are lots off very violent and dodgy characters around but it's a different place away from the bars.

[@NomenNescio99]

First trip to the village is unforgettable! Find a lady you are comfortable spending time with and just go there.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Indeed mate

[@RikKadena]

I appreciate the advice but, after a toxic career, where I managed not to kill someone, but now happily retired. I am fine with just kicking it in my beach front Condo. Worked all my life so I can get up out of bed, whenever I want, No clocks, no deadlines or appointments; walk wherever I want, strike up a conversation with a 20 something fine ass babe and get some tail. The fact that its a business only adds to my happiness. Sure I keep well groomed and in relative good shape for my age and money; money is for the babes. And I spend it on them like its nothing because, im happy with the arraignment's.

[@philliproberts7294]

Good on you mate not needing a watch or clock now that's freedom

[@marksallai2289]

Condo did you rent or buy which is best

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Gotcha

[@RikKadena]

I rent because of the freedom that comes with it. After retirement, money is no longer a problem. Given the circumstances with it all.. @@marksallai2289

So you are living his advice you just wanted to ramble on about how rich and great you are ...YAWN

[@gautamgulati625]

Went to your bar last week few times - lovely staff and very clean and cozy Coming back to Pattaya in 10 days again - will meet u there

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Thanks for sharing your experience with us mate much appreciated

[@dealerslicenseops]

Great point on the age thing. Make sure you have some good self control and respect for the Thai's. A drunk 23 year old guy can quickly get himself into trouble here if he gets loud and obnoxious. Plus he'll want to off himself when he goes back to a western country (UK USA CANADA)

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Absolutely mate

[@brotherimzee]

Try to come to Thailand with the mindset that you'll be back. If you have it in your mind that this is your one and only trip to Thailand, you'll push too hard, binge too much and.... open yourself to too many risks and mistakes. Most people visit Thailand and do indeed come back, sometimes within months. My humble advice is dont rush Thailand. Enjoy it and remember, you can always come back.... chances are, you will.

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Cheers mate

[@jorgenmansson4269]

One night I talked to at least 5 different girls in different bars and they all said they were 37 years old and had worked in the bar for 3 months 😂

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Lol

[@TheRickster1972]

Another fantastic video Trev, I had my first trip in July 23 and was overwhelmed, it was like going from the most unpopular guy in school to the most popular guy overnight🤣 . Coming back in May 24 !!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Hahaha nice one mate

[@marcsensei7645]

Pattaya gets old very easily 3 days I’m begging to come home . 1st world prices for everything and everyone literally every single Thai see you as an open wallet just want to grab your bucks . So much energy consuming .

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Wow

[@davehedgehog9795]

It's true though tbh

[@lwayne-z3w]

Yes don't fall in love. My opinion is don't see the same girl more than once. Sometimes, you see the same one many times, the experience gets worse, not better. If you act like you're looking for the 'one', you become vulnerable to the lady's games and you seem desperate. With bar girls, as soon as you walk in, they read you and by the time you sit down they got your number. Also agree on seeing different sites which I plan to do there. For drinking, my personal limit is 2 beers/day. Don't like no beer gut, hahaha. The food part might be hard since so much seems available 24/7. Helpful topic and thanks!!!

[@Buzzinpattaya]

Got it mate
