Cosy Beach Hotel Pattaya

... in Thailand. The car parts are shipped to Japan & the cars are assembled there. There are several jobs in Thailand that only Thai people can hold, 2 of them are hairdressers (I found that strange) and the other one that she mentioned was a Tour Guide. This one I understand as they have a better understanding of the history & customs of the land. Apparently 96% of the people in Thailand are Buddhists, 0.05% are Catholic ...

... had to sit down below. Thus turning into possibly the worst 40 min of my life.  We inhaled so much carbon monoxide my throat, lungs and head hurt. Every time I turned around the entire boat full of people were asleep. Not boading well for us at all. I was not feeling well so got up to try to go outside and get some fresh air. Unfortunately it had just started to poor! I guess there was just no winning. Luckily we did start to feel better not long after ...

... a few days r and r during the war. As a result, it is overloaded with bar girls and somewhat skanky white men who come to Thailand for a good time. But like any big city, you could live a totally normal life in Pattaya and never rub shoulders with the shadier elements. I think it is ironic that a city like Pattaya and the girls who work there are looked at askance when in truth, they wouldn't have gravitated there if it weren't for the lure of the ...

... However, nothing of all that happened and poor Moo ended up waiting in the guesthouse's foyer waiting in vain for a treasured customer like that, no money in her pocket but an expensive room upstairs where her empty purse was desperately awaiting the Farang's baht. A five hundert note baht would have done nicely!!!<br><br>Moo has been an old friend of quite some years so when I listened to her story this morning on the boulevard, how she needed the ...

... of people probably assume a young attractive Thai girl in Pattaya must be a bar girl. Sex is quite open in Thailand but sex workers are generally looked down on in society. Non sex workers and older Thai's see the whole industry as giving Thailand a bad name and an inaccurate portrayal of their culture. The next day we took a ferry to Koh Lan, a beach laden island 7 kilometres off the coast of Pattaya. We took a motorbike to Laem Thien beach; I had ...

We took the 40 minute flight from Koh Samui to Pattaya without too much knowledge of the place other than a few stories I'd heard about it being sleazy and it was!. There's not really a lot else to say about the place and we did nothing othere than have a few beers the day we got there down "walking street" which is ...

... it as is a stripper joint but anyone can pay the equivalant of 12euro to take a girl out of the bar.(nicely titled a barfine). Then one has to agree a price with the girl to take her home. There are hundreds of such places in this town. We didnt spend long in that place but went to a club instead. This is where all the young people seem to gather and was a good bit of craic. Next day Roinn planned to take us out again. We went shopping with ...

... It was fantastic fun, it's like you can go back to being a kid all over again, we bought water guns and then also went out in a truck ourselves and drove round soaking everyone... We also had a ceremony to pay respect to the owner - Mr Phillip and then we had a small ceremony at the spa to pay respect to my boss whose name is Yui... i've attached a photo of the team at the Spa to show you some of the people i'm working with... I'm sat next to Yui.. During and after ...

... of weeks here. I'm looking forward to attacking a bookshop I've spotted near my chief source of icecream. I hope to acquire a thesaurus there, as I am slightly worried that I am going to forget how to speak English properly. I would appreciate prompt notification of any lapses into pidgin English on this website! I apologise for the continued lack of bears; however, so far the vet work has been very rewarding if slightly disturbing at times.

... delapidated homes of the food stall owners preparing their wares for the day. Most homes were simply a mattress, a TV and the mobile kitchen that is their business. The minibus journey down to Ban Phe was arduous at best. Stuffy and cramped. The journey was made bearable only because I was sat next to a Korean girl that I met on the cookery course all the way back in Chiang Mai. I arrived on Ko Samet at about 2pm. The reception apologised that there was construction work going on and ...
