Som Nam Na (AKA Conversations with my conscience)

by Mega September 12, 2010 General

Life should be lived in harmony and with balance (otherwise the Dragon’s gonna bite your ass)   The Thai’s say it quite often with a smile and a shake of the head. It may sound as though it’s said in jest – and quite often it is – but the smile is just their polite [...]

Fantasy and Reality

by Mega August 9, 2010 General

Reality, in Thailand, is often a like a counter punch. You know it’s out there. When it catches you it’s not entirely a surprise because, in the deep dark recesses of your mind, you’ve seen the peripheral signals.

ARAI NA?

by Mega July 21, 2010 General

He had an unusual knack for cutting through the gloss of the human experience and getting right to the heart, the very core, of the basic shit that motivates us. And that, unsurprisingly, is us.

by Mega August 31, 2007 Thai Girls

“Man down in the bell, man down in the bell, this is not a drill”. I was woken out of my early morning weariness by the supervisors’ voice coming down the paging comms system. I looked up at the monitor, which had a live picture of the bell, and could only the back of Shane, [...]

One Night In Bangkok

by Mega August 30, 2007 Thai Girls

Where were you when the realization finally hit you? The realization that sex with bargirls / hookers is, for the most part, a waste of time and money. I was sitting in the restaurant of the Nana Hotel, at a table next to the window, looking out into the parking lot. I should have been [...]
