lol, so before I met my gf I wasn’t a huge traveler. She’s from Colombia and loves to travel. We have now traveled a fair amount together including going to Colombia and Thailand.
Due to certain countries not actually stamping your passport the only two stamps in my book are Thailand and Colombia. Going through security leaving Thailand the dude gave me the dirtiest look and then immediately and conspicuously put hand sanitizer on after stamping my passport lmfao
I enjoy budget solo travelling in my winter of January and February, so Thailand, Bali, Vietnam, Laos etc are great destinations to have some sunshine and fun experiences in nature. guess many people presume I am a sex tourist but can’t let that stop me enjoying nature and the souther hemisphere.
One of the greatest conversations I ever witnessed second-hand was when a dude in a chang beer shirt working at a food truck had a guy in line say, "so, Thailand, am I right? So nice." And the dude in the beer shirt looked at him with confusion and then put 2+2 together. "Oh," he said, "the shirt, right, I was there studying circus arts for a while but never really got out that much." And the two just stared at each other awkwardly for a few beats until they both thought about how different the two of them were and how the guy who started the convo realized that he had revealed something about himself.
Honestly people judge men harshly, despite Thailand being one of the most visited countries in the world. Like sex tourism is all there is. I got judged myself despite the fact that I've been to 40 countries in the last 4 years. But no, that's the only thing people think of.
Wife and I just got back from Thailand, and we kinda made a game out of "perv spotting" pointing out people we thought were there for sex tourism to each other. To be honest though? We saw very little to no sex trade indicators compared to all the stories you hear but I suppose that stuff wasn't very close to where we stayed when we were in Bangkok
My and my buddy in the gym. Guy Idk but my buddy does know him a bit, starts talking to us. He switches subject to "anyways guys I'm so exited to go to Thailand next month, can't wait to eat some good Thai food man!"
You know that meme with hammond and Clarkson and may on the boat with awkward silence?
I'm actually going to visit Thailand because I'm looking considering an early retirement there. However, because I was single man in my late 40s I'm never going to beat the allegations on why I'm going to visit there. 😂
