Also Canada although on a different date as well as a smattering of other countries. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanksgiving_(Canada).

Most of these countries celebrate a holiday called thanksgiving but it's generally a different holiday.

On the flip side, you get magical powers. You become invisible.

Like at the Thermae walk of shame at Bangkok. The girls will act like you just don't exist.

Must be very tough if you are a creepy middle aged Indian.

Seriously? Thanksgiving isn't any kind of holiday outside of the US.

Being creepy and middle aged is fine with the Thai girls. However, being Indian is a different story.

If I'm not mistaken, Thanksgiving and Martin Luther King day are the two biggest holidays in Thailand. See the link below for details.

I wanted to know that what is the general perception about Indian guys in Thailand. I know that a lot of creepy middle aged guys come to Thailand for cheap thrills but is there any way to change this perception? Or are there any reliable places where they do not say NO just because I am an Indian?

Guys, I am an experienced monger from India and have mongered all over India and in Europe. I have been to Thailand before with friends and have tried out soapie at Kristine's and have had some good fun at the regular massage parlors in Bangkok and Phuket. I am planning my solo trip now. Since I will be coming alone I would like to have some good overnight or multiple days GF experience with girls. I have been checking smooci as it is gaining popularity.

It is not easy. There are more Thai girls that just do not go for Indian guys much even more so than they might not go for Farangs. Still it is possible to overcome the prejudices, by proving you don't want the world for free or very low money, and by proving you don't have bad under arm stink, or smelly foreskin, or whatever the clichs are. Some handsome high class acting Indians can be doing quite well. I don't really know if Thai girls are liking very hairy men, or not. I am certainly not that.

I noticed that Billboard bar is very popular with Indians partying maybe just a bit too much for my liking. This means not sitting quietly at all. I don't like guys standing and moving around the stage blocking view of others, no matter where they come from. However I appreciate than younger guys tend to get into party mode. I also noticed that Indians prefer bars with more voluptuous girls than what I like. So I am going for the bars with mainly skinny girls. I don't see many Indian guys with really skinny girls. There tend to be venues with plenty of Indian customers and others with none or low.

Being by yourself could be an advantage as you may be viewed as different to a group.

I will keep it short here but when I have time, I will explain in detail. I am posed as hell with the attitude of Indians.

Being an Indian myself, I found about 90% of us fit perfectly in the following 4 categories. Rude, Loud, Dirty and Cheap and most of these guys couldn't speak English (if you know a little bit about India then you know pretty much everyone educated speaks English very well).

Now tell me why would anyone want to be near them, much less fuck them.

The LOS will do a favor for everyone if they stop issuing visa on arrival for Indians before the hordes turn this beautiful country in to one filthy place just like the towns and cities we have in India.

Don't get me wrong, I saw and met several well educated, well travelled and affluent Indians and they all share the exact same opinion.

My experience was so bad that I have decided to stop flying budget airlines like air Asia altogether for overseas trips.

More to come!

To be honest with you your Indian countrymen have a pretty poor reputation with the people of Thailand. Unfortunately mostly deservedly. You will find places that will provide services to Indian men, but you will find the service provided reluctantly in most cases.

I'm sure you have already been appraised of the issues most have with Indians, so there is no need to go into it here as it will just start a flame war.

The SIMs tend to time out and then you have to replace them.

I hear you. I am just a more frequent traveller and receive local text and calls. So I always get a local SIM. Social and Internet based apps are penetrating the various countries but for now, the local SIM gives me more flexibility and convenience. Not all have Internet access. Hence I also have a T-Mobile SIM.

I checked Google Fi and it requires a newish Nexus phone, which I do have. The credits are applied supposedly to the next months bill. Since I do have a Nexus phone, I might give it try sometime.

Also, Asian local phone plans are starting to offer some flat rate roaming at a fairly expensive price.

Since you have been to Thailand, you are experienced, whatever the experience. If the experience was good, then revisit the same venues.

As for "creepy middle aged guys come to Thailand for cheap thrills" that describes a lot of people. I would have considered India cheaper.

what is an ideal amount of days one should take including days for flights. Should I plan on taking 7 days as 5 would be in country and 2 flying or take 5 and have 3 days in country which one is ideal for a first timer. I'm on the East coast so please keep that in mind.

Believe me, the longer you can stay in Thailand the better. 7 days IN country would be my minimum considering the money and time it takes to fly from East Coast USA to the Land of Smiles. So, adding in flight time I would advise you to plan spending at least 10 or 12 days on your trip total (2 weeks would be a lot better) or forgetaboutit.

Keep in mind that for short getaways from East Coast USA, the easy alternative is zipping down to Colombia or Brazil with 2/3 less travel time and plenty of attractive Latina hotties to keep you company while you have a 7-day blast. I live in SE Florida and I prefer Asian girls over Latinas and Asian culture over same same, so I travel to Asia every year even though I know exactly what the long duration flight to BKK is like. But my trips average 72 days or longer, so the torturous flight time is justified in my mind. But if I only had 7 days max to spare, I wouldn't think twice about it. I would head on down to Medellin or Sao Paulo for the best Latina girls period or Cartagena or Rio for the best combination of Latina girls and beach. Of course the decision is yours. If you decide on LOS, I know you will have a great time.
