What did Scott do in Chiang Mai

I don't own this picture and I can't find the owner either. Amazing picture tho.


I believe many of you have heard about Chiang Mai. It is one of the most beautiful cities in Thailand. In addition, it is also a creative city yet not so much when it comes to gay scenes (LOL).

So, I decided to take a short break with my work to come to this city where a lot of my friends and my ex call home. (Let me make myself clear, I have no intention to come here to meet him or anything. In fact, he didn't even know I am here)

I started my first night at a so-called best gay bar in Chiang Mai with drag show named Ram Bar (No photos taken, sorry guys). The bar was nice but the drinks were a bit too high according to my standard. However, it is not about the place or the drinks, it is about who you are hanging out with. After Ram Bar, we decided to go to this hidden gem called Boy Bar. Boy bar is owned by a guy named Boy who has fierce sense of fashion, very interesting attitude and very "wow" british accent. He claimed that Boy Bar is not a gay bar - more like a bar for everyone but it appears that more gays go to his bar so people called a gay bar. It is one of very few bars in Chiang Mai that opens until 2 am. I quite enjoyed it.

The next day, I hung out with my Thai friends who used to be my high school classmates. These guys have not seen this side of me since I came out to them yet.

The thing was, I was elected to be a student president back in my high school time and that means I had to be a role model for every single breath I had. Girllllll that was soooooo off-putting. Imagine you wanting so bad to party or go off the track to do stupid stuff that other students could do but you had to make sure that you are that one person that everyone looked up to.

Long story short, after a few buckets, my dancing diva inner soul was awaken and that was when my friends were in an utter "shook" mode. The grinding, the bumping, the twerking and the go-low before butt up in the air was such a photo-finished performance of my night. The morale of this story is that, do not cage your inner soul for too long. Once it is unleashed, it has no mercy ;)


However, the real point is that when it comes to a vacation, especially when you talk about Chiang Mai, people always think that you should explore as much as you can. Well, not for me. My ex used to take me around this city and that was enough. To me, the first 2 nights pretty summed up what I am into and I really had such a great time. I would be lying if I said that I did not use grindr but I did not hookup. That's the tea.


Chiang Mai is such a unique city and you get to see various kind of people. I met this Thai guy who perfects his British accent and sense of fashion. I somehow managed to amaze my Thai friends who always had the picture of me as a student president by being the gayest queen of the night. I could go on a vacation without having my hookup stories to tell my friends and that matters the most ;)

Must-know facts about Thai guys (Part II) : They save 'face' more than 'money'

Lose face? What the heck is this? Come on! don't pretend like you don't know it, just because you guys are hardly in this kind of situation but behold folks! This thing is really common in Thailand and maybe it's become part of the culture now. Well, losing face is feeling extremely embarrassed or being in a really really awkward situation... and that is what we, Thai people really hate! Geert Hofstede I think it is not fair to say that Thai guys are afraid to lose face as actually all Thai people are. First thing is, according to Geert Hofstede's Cultural dimension, Thai people has really high point for the concept of uncertainty avoidance culture, which means Thai people are afraid to to be in such an uncertain situation. Alright enough for academic article... let's go back to the reality However, it really makes sense. Now time to explain how we would be like if we are in 'face-losing' situation. Let me explain by telling the story. ...

5 months of no sex and I just had a date first time in 2 and a half years!

Hi y'all! My last post was all about random thing I did, saw and experienced at Chiang Mai and I have been thinking so hard what to do in order to have you guys back to read my tiny little blog again LOL Well, It has been such interesting time with me lately. I have been busy planning on my first ever Europe trip. It involves a lot of paper works and blah blah. The good thing is, I get to forget about my ex for a while. Not that I can't get over him or anything but come on! it was 2 and a half years and I would be heartless to never have my own sad days at all. Thanks god, I have friends. People gave me a lot of advises about how I should deal with my breakup or I would call it feeling missed out. Some said that I should just take a moment of my life, go somewhere and spend time with myself (Well, if my boss allowed me to take another holidays, I wouldn't hesitate LOL), some even said that I should just let myself go with how I feel and never force myself to not be s...

Sadness doesn't last long, the mistakes that do.

Everytime, I watched Thai soap opera and when it came to depressive parts of it, I would always turn it off as it was always sad to think how people could handle such things, how they could manage to get through that kind of stuff or even how their lives would become after those hard times. I couldn't figure it out - not sure if it's because I am too stupid, too young or too blind to see the ways. But sadness is always like that, isn't it? No matter how much you try to avoid it, it always come to you. I used to think when I was a little child that I was the most happy boy in the world because I had everything. I have my lovely mom, my great dad and my supportive family. Then I've learned my life a lot these past years that life can't be interesting if you are not sad, uninspired and depressive.  I have had so many heartbreaking moments - there were so many that I, sometimes, just suddenly lost the faith in love. I used to believe that I might not need to l...
