Phnom Penh

[NewImage]

Ok never been but going soon. Best place to stay = Riverside research says but where near riverside? 130 street, 135 street, Near LE Crycee or Pontoon?

Prefer quick walk back to hotel from bars or do most guys get tuk tuk to take them around?

Looking at Sun & Moon? Any 4 star around Riverside near where I want to be. Maybe up to 100 UD per night?? Not too noisy at night.

Appreciate.

For those of you interested in Hanoi now that Mr expert has come over here, I suggest you read the first three to five pages of the Hanoi forum. Remember such comments from reputable posters such as no infrastructure, mercenary people, traffic, crappy hotels etc. Remember such comments from reputable posters talking about how bad the scene is there and how nasty and rude the people are. Absorb, with bated breath, Mr Hanoi mongers statement that he knows where to get sex from ugly girls for $8. I dare say he's probably a Vietnamese American with a little bit of national pride, low standards and a lot of ego.

Based on the comments I saw over there, I will venture to say that Phnom Penh is probably a superior mongering venue to hanoi.

Mind you, nothing affects me since I live in Siem Reap and Monger in Bangkok, quite successfully I may add. I guess some folks don't like the fact they can't find $8 ugly girls there.

Anyone I have taken to my spots in Hanoi and Nam Dinh, they could not believe it. Bangkok is a shitty place, keep going to BKK, you wouldn't know what to do in a city like Hanoi, you seem like a real idiot. BKK sucks.

LOL. Validation from your friends. How scientific.

Bet you dollars to Donuts that you're one of the many expats in Vietnam and Cambodia who can't get into thailand. Seen a lot on the message boards, Thailand tossed you out out or won't let you in, and you spend your time bashing the place. Interesting that you're doing it on a Cambodian board. They must have really hurt your feelings a little fella, you're stuck in a second rate City while everyone else goes to Bangkok haha sucks to be you.

[HanoiMongers]

LOL, and Hanoi is your personal preference. OK. But don't try to convince the world that Hanoi is better than BKK, the tourist numbers alone decry that ego boosting assertion.

As you say, you are happy that's Hanoi is not a comfortable mongering scene. Well it sure is in BKK. Winner.

That is your personal preference. Hanoi is by far better than Bangkok in every single way. I would never want to live in Thailand, I think Vietnam is the best place in the world, I prefer Hanoi and the north. There are some of the hottest girls in the world in Nam Dinh and Hai Phong. That is what makes us all different, we all have our own opinions. I have been to Thailand many times, but as far as the people, culture, travel, food, girls, you can't compare the two, Vietnam wins by a mile and I am very happy that it is not a comfortable scene for mongering here, I hope it is kept that way. It is a gem if you know what to do, but I will say speaking Vietnamese is essential to get into the deep depths of mongering.

Regardless, this is a Cambodia forum. You going to make yourslef look sillier by telling folks PP is better than BKK.

My problem with PP is there is absolutely nothing to do until the bars open at night. I was always bored out of my mind. Le Cyrcee was the only thing I enjoyed opening late afternoon. Maybe it's changed now but when I last visited there wasn't even a shopping mall half the size of Terminal 21 in PP.

I'd only return there if a group of my friends all went at the same time and I would hang with them.

Yes this tends to be my bugbear when I travel too. I'm not a stay up to 3 am big drinker, sleep till 12, wake up eat, watch some TV, lay by the pool and then repeat type of guy. I'm a into bed by 12, body clock goes off at 7, to the gym and by 10 ish what are we going to do? The in bed by 12 is a major bummer as in many places the real fun starts after 12. I've started a list of things to occupy me incl going to movies, bowling, sight seeing, shopping, etc etc. That's why I love beach side locations. Snokelling, scuba, swim, paddle.

I spent a lot of time figuring out the scene. There are many different types of scenes in Ha Noi, a lot of underground shit going on. I have been here almost 11 years and I speak Vietnamese so that is a huge huge plus. I have some local Vietnamese friends where I have taken them to areas and they were blown away that I knew about this place, as they didn't. Ha Noi has the best talent I have ever seen, you just have to know where to go, who to deal with and how to navigate, it is nothing like the south at all. But the girls here are amazing, plus I bang a lot of normal girls for free.

Yeah there is a HUGE difference in mongering opportunities for guys who regularly visit or live in a place vs those who pop in for 2/3 wks. Local Knowledge + speaking the language is a big plus.

I don't think I am the average type of monger and require modifications to the usual service. I find this difficult to communicate to the ladies who can't speak English.

Appreciate reply.

I have been going to Bangkok for 30 years and I can assure you, if your fetish is public sex you can find it, although it was far more prevalent in the old days. What folks tend to ignore when they are trying to show how cool and on the cutting edge they are by licking their mongering chops about Jakarta, Hanoi, PP etc, is that in Bangkok, you are getting a world class city to monger in, with so much to do you won't be able to do it all. That shows in the number of tourists who flock there. Don't know many folks outside the backpacker crowd who say, oh lets go see the sights of Phnom Penh or, hey lets hang out in commie Hanoi.

But hey, folks go / live in cities other than Bangkok for a variety of reasons and if you are living in Hanoi or PP for whatever reason, you can navigate and take advantage of the mongering scene there, just like I do in BKK.

Again, the girls aren't hotter in PP, or Hanoi, they just suit your taste better. Keep in mind that in Cambodia, 90% of your bar girls are Khmer and will look Khmer. Meanwhile, over in Bangkok, your girls will be one of all the various ethnicities of Thailand, so if you like Khmer looks, you will find them or Lao, Hmong, Burmese, Chinese, Mon, Tai, Mien, Malay. Even Vietnamese: usually on Soi Nana. Got Thai gilrs in Hanoi?

That's the problem: time on the ground. You will spend all your time in bars. That's fine if you live there, not so much as a tourist, although why anyone would go to PP as a tourist is beyond me. Meanwhile, I leave for the Siem Reap airport at noonish, land at DMK at 5, unpacked and showered by 7, and by 9:30 I've already eaten, hit the weed store and short timed. Tourist life, although I've got years of BKK under my belt. That's not what is going to happen for newbies to Cambo.

And while Nana is sleazy and BKK is dirty, IMHO PP is a shithole.

BTW, For anyone that goes to Cambodia / PP without traveling up to Siem for Angkor: shame on you.

I have been going to Cambodia for 15 years, I live in Vietnam and have traveled all over SEA and know the scenes in each country. PP is by far my favorite place ,2nd to Hanoi, PP is absolutely amazing and there are some really hot girls there. It blows Thailand out of the water. What happens inside the bars in PP does not happen in Thailand. I have shot so many loads inside the bars in PP, have had so many great girls over the years.

The main thing is just putting in time on the ground. Basically, like someone else said here, I seldom bother with the big flashy bars with dozens and dozens of girls out front looking all tarted up. I try to get to know the smaller places along St. 5 or around the corner on St. 118 and 110. Turnover is pretty rapid and when I go back they'll often introduce me to a new girl or two. But of course the good ones get snapped up quickly, often never to return. And as I say, many speak almost no English.

The bottom line for newbies: No dudes, the girls aren't hotter in PP or Hanoi. There is more of a variety and selection of girls in BKK. If ya don't like roboboobs or back tatts, there are tons of girls without them. Its far more civilized for newbies. It has better infrastructure. The hotels, dollar for dollar are nicer. The food is far far better. If you know the rules (which are discernible from this forum), its easy to get laid with minimal effort. Hell, if you have minimal standards, you can get your willy gobbled in BJ bars with no effort other than unzipping.

And for you lonely-hearts searching for the one and only in various dives, its easier to marry them in Thailand as you need govt permission in Cambo.

For you Indian guys: you will find less prejudice in Cambodia.

For you potential retirees: Here where it gets interesting. Cambodian rules: be 55 and give us $290, see you next year. Need I go over the rules in Thailand, with bank deposits, exit permits, mandatory reports, etc? So, if you want to take advantage of both countries, get a Cambodian visa and go back and forth as you please. You won't get hassled at the borders either. If you want to have two big cities to monger in, base yourself in PP. If you need mongering breaks, then go to Siem Reap or Battabang and chill in between sprees. Oh and after the first year, you get a free temple pass, an enormous value considering that it costs like $79 a week for the hoi polloi. I'm out there 3 x plus a week, only costs about $8 for the round trip tuk tuk.

BTW, For anyone that goes to Cambodia / PP without traveling up to Siem for Angkor: shame on you.

Any useful intel on Hanoi would be appreciated. I often go to HCM but have Viet partner & family in tow, which makes things very difficult. Been trying to get to DaNang & Nha Trang.

Didn't know the scene was so good in Hanoi or is it a case of a lot of groundwork to find the gems?
