Bangkok tour for island and bar

a

Nana Plaza is home to some of Bangkok’s best gogo bars. Ask anyone who knows the industry to name the best bar in Nana and odds are you’ll get one of 3 answers – Angelwitch, Rainbow 4 or Billboard. Each bar has its own flavour and each offers something a little different. Angelwitch is a show bar featuring a variety of choreographed shows, some with all manner of props including one show performed with a live python. Rainbow 4 has more girls than any other bar in the plaza, and probably more real beauties. And Billboard has not just a dance floor, but a Jacuzzi with theatrics where an empty seat is as easy to find as snow in Bangkok.I arrived in Bangkok not knowing a soul, without a single friend. I was embarking on an adventure, opening a new chapter in my life. I thought about the places I would see and the experiences that would follow, but never gave much thought to the people I would meet, or those I would befriend.



On joining Bangkok’s expat ranks one of the first pieces of advice I was given was that it’s not the Thais you should be wary of, but your fellow foreign.It’s easy to see someone who looks much the same as you, speaks the same language and grew up worshipping the same heroes and sharing much the same beliefs as safe. And often it’s not until you have the odd bad experience with such people that you learn. It has taken years for me to become consciously aware of the types to keep at a distance.It’s a new country, no-one knows so you can be a new person. You can reinvent yourself – and many do by rewriting the past. In Bangkok expat circles the most common lies concern people’s backgrounds. What they did before they arrived in Thailand, the amount of money they have, and their sexual conquests seem to be the big 3. They have low self-esteem and pump themselves up in an effort to make themselves be someone they’re not, someone they can now be happy with. They studied at MIT, their girlfriend has visited every hotel room in town and they have the American ambassador’s private number on speed dial.
