It's the beginning of the summer break now for all universities in Thailand -- not just in Isan.

university vacations
 

Icon513 - could you sketch out what a typical Thai university calendar looks like? Approx periods when they are in semester and on vacation? It may be helpful for planning my trips in the hope of fresh faces in massage parlours.

You may find it productive to search GayRomeo for the "northeast" area as many of those boys may already be in or willing to go to Bangkok for part of their vacation.

I noted yesterday that Saladaeng massage also has some fresh lads.

As an approximate guide, this seems fair as far as I have experienced:
First Semester: June - October
Second Semester: November - March
Summer Session: April and May

Then of course you need to consider harvest, planting and other agricultural events that siphon off some talent. In Isaan, it appears to me that rice is harvested mostly in November and December. But as cassava is slowly replacing rice in some areas, this is tending to level off the migration peaks. In any case, the entire planning process is further complicated by the fact that while vacationing Isaan universities may add fresh talent to the Bangkok scene, Bangkok university vacations result in local students going away.
So the best thing to do is to walk around and bang whoever takes your fancy.

Three visits this week
 

I visited 3 massage parlors this week.

Just a few quick thoughts.

Aqua Club arrived around 4pm . Maybe 10 boys , mostly athletic bodies. Choose Bill 25 years old and a little beard. Handsome guy. Showered alone. Massage was average and evident was more interested in getting to Happy ending which was ok. Will not return soon.

Albury had posted photos of a new boy on Thaimassageboys.com. His name was Ice and I loved his look. Called and made an appointment next day for 2pm. I arrived at 145. Ice did not arrive until 245pm. He was just as good looking in person so I was ready to forgive him. Asked for a VIP room with ensuite and TV . This is 800 for 1 hour instead of 600. Room is ok , but too many mirrors for my taste. Forced to look at myself(lol).

Showered alone. Ice put on straight porn which is not a good sign. He actually asked if I wanted massage. Massage was basic and short as was the sex. Too bad a lot of anticipation and a dud in all ways that count. Will not be back soon.

Body Club.

Have not been here for a year but have always had good luck.

Arrived at 2pm. They open at Noon. About 14 boys from small to athletic an maybe 1 muscle guy. Boys all lined up but no mamasan to talk to. Finally 1 boy left the line up and brought me water and rate card.

His name was Kim and I had noticed him even before he left line up. He was the smallest boy there and had a very young look which I am sometimes partial to. Asked him if he did everything and he assured me yes so I choose him.

All massages are 90 minutes here which I consider proper length of time for a good massage and fun.
Rooms all have ensuite showers. Rooms are showing their age but clean . Showers are big and you always get a complete scrubbing by the boy prior to massage. This is far better then the prevoius 2 places I visited.

The massage by this small boy was firm and complete. He was quite good and I was enjoying it.

After I turned over it progressed easily to a more intimate encounter in which this boy proved to be a passionate partner. This is the way it is supposed to be and I will be back soon.

BTW i asked him his age and he was 26. Unbelievable. I would have guessed high at 21.

When leaving there were probably 24 boys and some real stunners. If you like them young and cute , this is the place. That said there was a good range of other looks also.

Afternoons
 

Are they open in the afternoons? I'll be staying at Tarntawan Hotel soon and look forward to a bit of afternoon action. I've heard that Golden Cock and Super A in that area are also open in the afternoon but a friend who lives in Bangkok recommends avoiding Super A - too many straight under age boys was his report.

-- Today, (22nd.), I passed-by WHITE BAR - Soi Naras Thiwat 1., (aka. Soi Anumam.) - entered and of some young twink who was primping himself before a looking glass enquired of that place's hours of business?

X-size massage ... .
 

-- It's true that I don't walk-through Soi Twilight - off Suriwong rd. - as often as I used to do; but it wasn't until today, (26th.), evening that I knew of the flg. & 4th. massage parlor in Soi T'light.:

X-SIZE MASSAGE,
- addr.: Soi Twilight - off Suriwong rd.,
Bang rak, BKK. 10500.;
- tel.: n/k.;
- hrs.: 12.nn.-01.oo.;
- rates: I was shewn a Rate card, all svces. for 90mins. and avg. price looked to be in the 500.-600.Bh. range, except that 4 hands' massage would be 1,000.Bh.. TIPS. would be extra, of course.
- Candidly, none of the boyz on parade could be described as all that attractive; but possibly their other skills might compensate for that?

-- E&OE.. -- Usual disclaimer as svces. not sampled.

Has anyone been to Fan Club of late? Read a couple of reviews elsewhere and they said it was quite good so am wondering if anyone has been there lately is it still worth going there? Will be in Bangkok in a few months [arrive at hotel about 6:30pm] and will be looking for a rub down and a little extra fun [don't want to off a guy on the first night as it is a long flight to get there and I will be a bit tired]. Not really into the beefy sort of guys but just like the average types [hmm even fem types].

Senso massage ...
 

-- A youngish & Thai acquaintance of my enthusiastic & American friend has told him that SENSO MASSAGE & SPA.* - 5/8, Soi Saladaeng, (BTS.: Sala Daeng, [S2.],), - is now 'Into big everything: boyz, muscles etc. etc.!'.
--* > SENSOMENCLUB :: Male Massage Bangkok <

-- E&OE. as reported speech and unverified.

Went Fan Club 2 days ago. 15 boys about as average looking as it gets. Definitely no fems, muscles or attractive IMHO

Cheers for that firecat.

What are the rooms like at Fanclub? Do they have big massage beds or small tables like one finds at Hero f.ex. I am quite tall so size (of the massage beds) is really an issue for me. Do they have ensuite showers? Are the boys working in the nude without being asked?
