In case you haven’t heard, the immigration office moved from the ever so convenient Suan Phlu location to Chaeng Wattana. If you have no clue where Chaeng Wattana is don’t feel alone.

First off, let me say that the amount I just got ripped off for is – to me – pocket change. I am not writing this out of anger about the money but to warn others. There’s a gal who works Tilac named TT (not her real name). She doesn’t dance or even really work [...]

by Admin September 14, 2009 Bangkok Nightlife
