Obwohl es allgemein sehr weise ist, auf Bewertungen so weit wie möglich zu verzichten, finden wir es ist an der Zeit, ein paar subjektive Beobachtungen anhand ...

1. A true classic: Mistakenly approach a lady boy (when you’re actually into girls)

Maybe it was a portent that this cute girl I approached in the park this afternoon turned out to be a ladyboy. Damn! Still, right on time for curfew at about two we start our journey into Bangkok’s nightlife.

Vielleicht war es ein Omen, daß dieses hübsche Mädchen, das ich diesen Nachmittag im Park ansprach, sich als Ladyboy entpuppte. Verdammt! Dennoch machen wir uns pünktlich zur Sperrstunde gegen zwei auf in Bangkoks Nachtleben. Maybe it was a portent that this cute girl I approached in the park this afternoon turned out to be a ...
