I’m guessing you came across MAC TV’s videos, hahaha. I actually met him at his bar on Soi 7 in Pattaya. He’s a nice guy, not a bad person—just someone who realized that England would probably never give him what Thailand gave him. Living in Pattaya or Bangkok can eventually become repetitive, but Thailand has so much more to offer if you’re willing to leave the usual tourist areas and explore quieter, more local places.

Thailand is a fascinating country, yet many tourists spend their entire holiday in Pattaya without seeing anything else. I have a friend who spends three months a year in Thailand because of his job, but he mainly goes back and forth between go-go bars and nightlife venues. He has been visiting for five years and has never even seen the Sanctuary of Truth in Pattaya, despite it being an incredible wooden monument. I genuinely don’t understand that mentality, haha.

I’ve also seen Western men traveling with their Western girlfriends, and sometimes you can almost read the disappointment on their faces after seeing the Thai women around them. Some men even end up divorcing after discovering Thailand. Personally, however, I’m not someone who stops visiting a place simply because it has changed. I enjoy nostalgia and finding traces of the past in small details, because I believe that the little things are what truly bring happiness.

For MAC TV’s generation and mine, Thailand is attractive for many different reasons. In many ways, living there is becoming more appealing than remaining in the West, where the cost of living keeps rising while the quality of life often seems to decline. Thailand can offer a more enjoyable lifestyle, a warmer social atmosphere, and opportunities that are becoming increasingly difficult to find in Europe.

Personally, Asian women are the women I’m most attracted to. Like everyone, they have flaws, and some of those flaws are even things I dislike more than certain traits I’ve encountered among Western or African women. But when I look at the overall picture, I feel that they are women with whom you can build beautiful relationships, share meaningful experiences, and create lasting memories.

Well said buddy. I found Thai females to be feisty and caring they just in general were fun to be with, far more natural than western females. I saw many guys own bars hardly any made a success of it and finally folded but it took some time. What is your plans this time in Thailand?

@SoloMan Zone: The bar business is a whole different world. Personally, I would never start that kind of business in Thailand—or even get involved as a partner—because it’s an unstable and uncertain industry. The low season can hit bar owners really hard, and the younger generation doesn’t seem to drink as much anymore, which could become another major issue in the future. This year, I’m thinking of spending more time in Bangkok and the surrounding areas. I also want to meet with a visa agency and some lawyers to discuss possible business ideas. So I’m still planning and trying to figure out what I want to do this year. I’m hesitating between Pattaya and Bangkok for New Year’s Eve, but Pattaya still seems like the better option to me, haha. I’m planning to return to Ayutthaya for two days, and I might also visit Chumphon, Prachuap Khiri Khan, and Hua Hin. I wanted to explore more caves as well, but after seeing the blue spiders and other creatures you can find in the South… no thanks, hahaha. I was also considering Hat Yai and Surat Thani, but I’m still unsure. Another possibility would be spending about a week in Khon Kaen and Udon Thani. Chiang Mai and Chiang Rai are not really on my list this time. Any advice or recommendations would be more than welcome.
