I am going to cut out the current hot spots section. I think I have covered everything I want to cover about my preparation.

Now on to budgeting. I have a fairly large budget for this trip as I have seriously curtailed my TJ and Nogales trips to concentrate on one huge fuckfest in Thailand. I’ve only been to Nogales a handful of times since I returned from Thailand last November and I haven’t been to TJ since December. I spent a little more on the plane ticket than I needed, $880 for EVA Air Evergreen Deluxe Class. I spent a little more on the room than I needed, $50 a night at the Grand President (wish I would have seen Blazers' post earlier) and now we come to the daily spending totals.

First off, I think we should establish an over/under count for the number of girls I want to do. Hopefully I will do better than Drewwho did during one of his trips. On my November trip I was there for 14 days and ended up doing 33 girls for an average of 2.3 girls a day.

I will be there 15 days this time and my goal is to average 3 full girls a day for a total of 45. Knowing that I may get hung up on one girl for a day or so, or something else may come up I am placing the over/under for number of girls at 40, or 2.6 a day.

But I am budgeting as if I am going to do 45 girls. I know I am budgeting high, but hear out my reasons. I plan to do a LOT of massage girls on this trip. My plan is to hit two massages every day, one in the early afternoon and one in the early evening. Then head out to a Go-Go and find my company for the evening. I am also planning on doing a lot more sideline/model/VIP girls and they are usually more expensive. So I have a per girl budget for this trip of 3000 baht or $71 per girl. I know that is high. But my philosophy is estimate high and come in under that.

So 3000 baht per girl times 45 girls equals 135,000 baht. 135,000 divided by 42 baht to the dollar equals $3214.29

Now do I am honestly believe I will nail 45 girls while I am there? No. But you can be damned sure that the reason I don't meet this goal is NOT because I didn't do enough planning for it. It will be some other reason.

I do believe the 40 number is attainable, however. And that is why I have set my over/under at that amount.

The other reason I chose 3000 baht is because I included my drinks, lady drinks, bar fine, and other miscellaneous expenses associated with sanuking.

Everything else is pretty much insignificant. So throw in another 1000 baht per day for taxis, food, etc and there you have it.

3,214.00...Wow...and that does not even include hotel, food and shopping. 3000 for massage girls is high. Why don't you try to relax more during the day and get one massage, one short time and one long time girl from a go go bar.

In Bkk, try Soi 7 Beergarden during the day. Ther are girls who will go for 1000 baht and there are some lookers in the bunch. In Pattaya, try Tahitian Queen go go bar during the day for 1500 short time sessions from some serious stunners. Also try to go to some of the seedy bars on Soi Yodsak in Pattaya for the experience. Massage places are very sterile and hte experiences are great but try to diversify your experiences and see different sides of Thailand. If you plan too much you put a lot of pressure on your experience. Have plan B's and C's in every situation in case you go to a massage parlor and don't see a girl you like. Most of the best looking girls come out at night, so try to start you evening early with short timers from the go go bars and go back out for a LT girl at either a go go bar or freelance disco.

I also recommend that you put a lot of time in Angel's Disco at Nana Plaza and Tony's Disco in Pattaya. Both places have some beautiful girls who will go for 1000 short time or a little more for long time. You don't need to blow all of your money on massage girls...diversify your trip...just some suggestions.

I always thought X. was averaging 5 to 6 girls a day.

Xeno's daily MP allowance is so high because he plans to visit #17 (eat) at Darlings again ... (-:

Blazers,

Thanks for the tips. For me, thinking back to my past experience in November I was just wondering how in the world I could get in three sessions a day. The time just seemed to fly by everyday and it was difficult to pick up girls from the same place because the girl I took the last night or a few hours ago would plop herself in my lap and not let go. So the best thing I could think of to get in some good numbers was the massage parlors.

I do plan on doing a lot more exploring this time around though. And I'll check out all the places you mentioned.

Athos, in TJ that would be no problem. It is more difficult to achieve those numbers in Thailand because of its setup. And don't get me wrong. I am by no means complaining of Thailand's setup compared to TJ. No way!

In Thailand you get a 2 hour 3 course meal each time. So 3 a day is quite alot. In TJ it's a taco a time. So you often need 3 or 4 to fill you up.
