Looks like it was a great time, will have to stop by the bar soon :)

I've found that the Katoey are the most direct/pushy but they arent hard to shake, and actually tonight I'm waiting until about 1AM before I head out to soi 6 to see what I can find...heh. What is the average barfine on soi 6 anyway? Haven't really been using this street as my haunt, just enjoy the view from my room. Any advice welcome.

Why in god's name would I need to 'protect' myself here? These people are pretty awesome. They aren't pushy, and when they ARE pushy, it's not EVEN pushy. I dunno, been here a couple days, staying on Soi 6 and I have had no problems with anyone.

I am using the 60 tourist visa and leaving tomorrow, expect to stay 83 days, so I am extending it there. I haven't had any issues so far!

why can't we all just get along?

Thanks Tom, but the question is valid. I need some time away from home. I am lucky enough to have the means, and felt that to take a 2 week vacation was an insult to Thailand So I'm taking 3 months to get an idea of the place. Hope that helps

I'm heading to Thailand for the first time next week, I'm spending 3 months there(83 days) and have set what I consider a decent budget of around 2500US/month. I'll let you guys know how that works out as the weeks go buy. And I'm thinking of grabbing a condo/apt for at least a month or so as a home base, so that's only around 12k/month max for what I'm looking for.
