Suppose you are an American guy in Thailand-you desire female companionship for a few days (beach, dinner, etc.)-no sex. > Would a Thai girl be open to this? > Is this done? It would still be a girl on the game. Whether you have sex or not is up to you, but she’d still expect remuneration. “Good” girls don’t travel around with farangs unless they’re already in some sort of relationship. But yes, that would not be difficult to arrange. ---

> [@Lanzy](#): > > My son was in Thailand for 6 months (actually Phukett) and was amazed at the amount his Auzzie friends would drink almost every night. He was also amused at some of their low standards for bringing bar girls back to their rooms (hint: they were not always all girl). > He did love to hang out with them, just didn’t try to keep up with them. The Aussies I know generally do seem to be a thirsty lot. Saturday night, I was out in Khao San Road with an English friend who was waiting for some friends from Adelaide to fly in. They showed up, six strong, five men and a lady. Four of the guys my friend knew, while the other man and the lady were new to him. But the four whom he knew, they come here to Thailand once or twice a year or more, literally for decades now. Nice people. But it’s been awhile since I greeted the dawn in Patpong like I did this morning (Sunday morning), as that’s where we finally ended up. (As I was walking off to go find a taxi on Silom Road, a ladyboy hooker kept following me in hopes I’d pick him up. It was fully 7am by then. Man, they can be persistent.) (No, I did not pick him up.) ---

Just for the record, I’m still alive and kicking (though mostly kicking these days). Not an Aussie, but I haul from the Southern Hemisphere so it has to count for something! > [@Siam\_Sam](#): > > It would still be a girl on the game. Whether you have sex or not is up to you, but she’d still expect remuneration. “Good” girls don’t travel around with farangs unless they’re already in some sort of relationship. But yes, that would not be difficult to arrange. I’ve traveled with Thai female friends, definitely not in the _game_, on a few occasions without any bother. There’s all sort of people everywhere, some women here are confident enough to hang out with guys without expecting things getting… complicated. 😉 Even more amazing, there are some women that allow their boyfriends to hang out with girls without giving them the stinky eye. 😃 ---

It’s pretty rare that a fresh-off-the-boat tourist here is going to find a Thai girl to go traveling with who’s just your everyday lass.
