Livingstones: A newbie's first impressions
Having worked the last better part of a year in a remote part of the globe, starved of female charms and therefore accumulating some excess cash, I have been planning a trip to Bangkok for quite some time. Having read the forums I decided that the best thing a new farang such as myself could do would be to stay at the Livingstones Lodge, owned and run by our own Giotto.
No matter how experienced one might be as an international monger or how much you read the forum beforehand, there will always be some things that will cause anxiety to any newcomer. It is a type of 'insider trading' knowledge, such as Thai girl mentality, which places and girls are crazy, the local art of negotiation, and how to get around and locate things without winding up lost, robbed, or fleeced at disreputable places.
Fortunately Giotto takes care of all this. He is a monger like us, who built his own Shangri-La and runs it the way any monger would want it. While Giotto is in the business to make money of course, he does so by being an honest proprietor, adviser, and faithful to his clientèle. And he demands the same of all who work for him, so you can enjoy yourself without harassment or fear of being ripped off.
Having PMd Giotto beforehand I was able to coordinate several aspects of the trip, such as how much I should pay for cab fare and how to locate the hotel. I was also assured that as a newcomer there was nothing to worry about; aside from the beautiful ladies that work in his own hotel bar he offered to give me the tour of the local spots. He explained the various types of services and the differences between various parlors and clubs, as well as guidance on where to get a good traditional Thai massage.
The rooms are beautiful, having a mixed feel of a comfortable bungalow and bed and breakfast suite. Everything was designed for us... there are no clocks on the room and the lighting is all setup to create a sexy atmosphere. I got the executive suite which is a very large room with a giant bed, european style linen, and a jacuzzi.
Despite having been awake for two days traveling, I sat down with Giotto after checking in to have a great conversation and an introduction as described above. I also met SexWithSmile who has to be one of the coolest characters I've met in a long while. He is very intelligent and polite, but also a calm and amicable sex maniac who has a clearly intuitive understanding of the way things work. He operates on his own terms but has a smile that clearly has the ladies wrapped around his finger despite being an incorrigible butterfly!
Again, I was very tired but SexWithSmile shamed me into going into the bar, which took very little convincing. The girls are all very nice and not aggressive. Giotto has a very firm rule that girls are not allowed to approach or harass the customers, so you are safe to walk in, sit down, and take everything in. Giotto's wife is the mamasan, so SexWithSmile, sensing that I was wavering had her pick me a girl to sit down and have a drink based on my requirements for a 'sweet and funny' girl.
She picked Jane, a really cute 30 y/o spinner, weighing no more than 90 lbs soaking wet, but not in any way that made her look emaciated. I like small women, and she has a cute smile that just made me feel relaxed. She sat down and I bought her a drink, which was a gin and tonic. I tasted it, and it was indeed a very gin heavy drink, which gave me assurance that she wasn't going to be slurping them down juicy-girl style. Like any place the girls make commissions on the drinks, but I did not feel pressured to buy drink after drink. I also did not feel pressured to bar fine... they know we're there to pick up a girl so they do not pressure you, it is all really above board and comfortable.
I sat and chatted with her for an hour and a half during which she had two drinks, and we had a conversation with broken english and hand gestures. The language barrier was not a problem and we made each other laugh, so I asked her to spend the evening with me. Take note: this is where Giotto's involvement with the process ends; the girl freely negotiates her LT price with you. However, if you ask the typical rate he will tell you, and he always makes sure that you are happy the next day. If the girl tries to play any tricks and leave early, he wants to know about it, and this just did not seem like a problem as these girls all clearly know the rules of the house. Again, Giotto's house is in our favor so there was no need to worry.
I am pretty sure the typical LT goes for 1500-2000B, but I am not interested in too much haggling so long as the price is reasonable and we are both happy. She tried to talk me into 3000B LT, to which I told her I was very tired and would just fall asleep on her, and that I knew 3000B was too much. She told me that her last bf paid her 4000B to which I politely replied that I was not her last bf and that since I was tired I would just see her some other time. So she and I agreed on 2000B for a nice massage and some light touching. Hehe, yeah right.
So we went up to the room to use the jacuzzi, but the water was not too hot because off all the other rooms showering at that same time of night before/after sex. Other hours hot water was good, just at that time the water heater was trying to keep up. Also, you need to prepare the tub at least 20 mins before hand to fill it up, and I did not want to wait. So instead we showered together, where I explored her and she explored me and I had fun lightly smacking her with my happy stick to make her laugh.
She was very shy it seemed though, and always wanted to be covered in her towel when we were not in the shower or in the bed, so I had to make her feel comfortable. I think this may be common with them, but treat them respectfully and make them feel beautiful and they warm up quickly.
So we went to my bed and she gave me a nice light thai massage, during which I touched her and also got some lotion to massage her legs and feet (this amazed her that I did not mind touching her feet, and she enjoyed it very much). Then I started to kiss her, and I must admit I am a very sensual kisser. It was not long before I got her in the mood and we had a marathon sex romp. It takes me a very long time to cum when I wear a condom, but she was very patient and open to trying anything I suggested, from DATY, 60, BBBJ, CG, you name it. I am not an anal guy, so I do not know if that would be a limit for her.
We then cuddled up to go to sleep during which she held my still turgid member like it was a trophy. Then we feel asleep. When we awoke in the morning at 8AM she needed to leave in a couple hours and I still wanted to sleep. She did not want to sleep however, and she help my 'trophy' again while trying to kiss me to wake me up and get me in the mood. So, of course, I had to make her happy and she sucked all the life out of me. She then cuddled me, left, and I slept until 2PM in the afternoon.
I feel utterly spent now, and went for a traditional thai massage (no sex) across the street at Cefle for 300B 2 hours, which was the best massage of my life, and I have dated two professional american masseuses in the past.
So that was my first night and day, and I am definitely having a good time. I am looking forward to going out on a tour with Giotto to sample the rest of Sukhumvit, including Darling, Poseidon, and some clubs. Just tell him what you want and he will tailor the tour.
The internet is free, and there is no time restriction on the included breakfast... I woke up at 2PM my first day and breakfast was served when I came down. While Giotto was not there I had the chance to enjoy a conversation with his wife, who runs the bar and acts as a senior mamasan. Like her husband, she has a great ethic of talking with you to understand what you are looking for to help you find it, as well as just friendly conversation to make you feel welcome.
So, I will follow up with more, but I solidly recommend Livingstones to anyone coming to Bangkok for the first time or experienced local mongers looking for a safe haven to pursue their libidinous interests!
