Street BBQ

Posted in Bangkok

I eat most sorts of street food but there’s nothing I find as addictive as the wicked BBQ sold on pavements everywhere in Bangkok. It’s awfully tasty and bloody cheap too - usually 10 baht each.

At 1,400 baht per head, the [...]

Nong Poy - The World’s Most Beautiful Ladyboy

Posted in Thai Girls

I’m not a huge fan of ladyboys. I don’t wanna say I’m homophobic but I just find them difficult and don’t feel comfortable with them being around me. I simply can’t help it and no one can blame me for that.
