Hi guys , i've been reading this forum for a while now .. i've used it to gleam alot of information for my upcoming 2nd trip to S.E Asia.

I'm 26 from F.N.Q Australia.

I hope i can payback some of the effort that alot of board members have put in by putting in by sharing some of my own experiences, and the upcoming crazy tour i'm about to have.

Last time i was in LOS i was on a 3 Month tour , i stayed in Bangkok for about 2 weeks and i hooked up with this georgeous girl. I didnt really get to experience BKK in all its mongering glory and because she was only 19 i didnt really go anywhere of interest apart from a patpong beer bar or 2 and the hard rock cafe.

We headed down to Phuket and it was around songkraan so i just had an amazing time + with the whole GFE. Which probably worked out well for me as i was also on a budget.

Phuket was wonderful. And upon returning home about 2 years ago i knew it wouldn't be long before i'd go back and its been longer than i would have wished but in less than 3 weeks i'm going on a 4 country S.E.A tour !!!

feb 17th. - chinese new year in H.K for 4 nights.
feb 21st - H.C.M city Vietnam for 6 nights.
feb 27th - P.P Cambodia for only 2 nights
mar 1 - Phuket for 7 nights.
mar 8 - BKK for 3 nights.
march 11 - Pattaya for 6 nights
march 17 - BKK for 2 nights.

All my flights are organized and im staying at MajSuites BKK and C&N Patong , however i have absolutely no clue as to where to stay in Pattaya.

I look forward to posting a TR once finished and finding ways to contribute to these boards.

Thankyou.

Welcome welcome.

Nicely planned trip. I am planning something like that also, but not this year.

Got to really save up to do a month in Thailand and other areas.

Cheers and have a good trip! ! !

Hi Xodas, welcome here and it seems you have a great tour planned. About Patong and BKK you will have gathered enough info now. However, Chinese New Year in Hong Kong is really some experience as well. Enjoy yourself.
