Overall Impression On AC, Thoughts of Living There, and Bankgok
I am currently on a mini-vacation away from Bangkok (will return to Bangkok soon) and wanted to post my thoughts on Angeles City. It really had a weird but lasting impression on me since I was there several months ago. It really is different than reading the forums or some interent site / blog or what have you.
Here are my overall impressions of AC.
When I first arrived there, I thought to myself (hey, this city is not soo bad, how it reminded me a bit of Cali, Colombia). It wasnt until I checked into my hotel where the main action was at that I truly saw how much of a dump this city was. I've been to some bad and poor areas in different parts of the world, but nothing to the effect of AC. Trash everywhere, people grabbing you (kids, etc) for money wherever you walk. THere was this bad odor around. The streets are dirty covered in dust, dirt, rocks and fumes. I remember reading about the poker scam and one of the drivers from the airport tried to pull that trick on me BEFORE taking to my hotel! LOL!
WHen you see these places on Youtube you know that you are not in Disneyland or in Kansas, or in some scenic place in Japan, etc. But it hits you hard when you arrive there where the action is at. Finding food is a ***** (I had to resort to McDonalds as this was the best place for me. Way better than that crap Jobolees. Yeah, Ill take GMO, synthetic burgers over what they serve at Jobolees).
I found my first girl at Atlantis and let me tell you, even to this day, she had the most amazing and most athletic body I've ever been with. That including my exes, one night stands, and all the tons of pros I've done in the past. I had one ex who was a 200 m sprinter and she had a body on her, but this Filipina beat her out. WOW. She doenst work out except for the dances she does on stage. She did say she did lots of heavy lifting of carrying baskets of fruits and veggies as a kid. But WOW.
Not only that, but this girl likes to BANG like I'm the last guy on earth! I've been to Costa Rica, Colombia, Bangkok, and that overrated crappy place (Pattaya), Seoul, US, Mexico, Nicaragua (which comes the closest to girls that are horny to Filipinas), and nothing compares to Filipinas overall! Not only that, but she had a super strong attraction over me to the point where she wanted to sleep at my place every night and do everything with me.
I enjoyed the attention for this strong affection but it got tiring. This girl would fold my clothes, bring me food and drinks, bathe me, and yet. Being the cold hearted dumb fool that I am, I didn't come to AC to get married, I wanted to see more.
Over the course of the trip I tried more girls, and out of the 8 or 9 that I did there, even my worst girl there would beat at the average BK girl there. My worst girl? One that you know that wants your money, quick sex and good-bye, but even that girl gave a half way decent performance. What was more amazing than that? I met one girl who I'd swear could be on the Olympic gymnastic team or fitness circuit and her body even BEAT by Atlantis girl. I was hoping to see her too on a free-basis but she knows her worth (4000 pesos I paid, I know. I know. But it was a one time thing). Still great sex and more.
I did happen to venture over to Subic Bay. The town is pretty boring, but there is a nearby bigger town (I forgot the town) that has two small malls. There were a few decent rotisserie chicken places I ate for cheap that came with beans. I wouldn't say its 'boring' like in other small Thai towns, but it doesn't have that "Vegas" esque nightlife of Angeles City.
So back I went to AC.
On the way back things got more hectic. I still had TWO girls following me (like the Atlantis girl) so I went to another place. Forgot the name but its the popular one closer to McDonalds. I went with a hardbody girl who was a pole dancer. Great body and attitude. So what was the negative thing? She too was overly affectionate. After we did she invited to hang her with friens in a small bar. She showed me off to them, and even took a pen and starting writing my name and hers on her hand. Almost too hard to the point where it was like a Tatooo. This scared me a bit but ignored it. The strange thing? Her friend that even looks BETTER than her, with a super pointy round dancers ass and a sweet soft face was putting her hand on my lap carrasing it! WOW. It was that next day I had to leave and I left with no goodbyes.
I miss you AC.
Living in AC.
Before I thought it was impossible to live in AC, and in some ways, I still do. Look, I've been to Chiang Mai where its clean (yes, it does have its smog but nowhere near the death pollution of AC). I'm at BK which has the best food in the world and at a great price. BK is super safe and somewhat reasonably cheap to live.
So why the thoughts of living in AC?
I'm not sure if I want to spend my whole life living in that high intensity nightlife that AC provides. Imagine banging a girl almost every night to the point of exhaustion, and some of these girls you are doing for free on some nights?
But believe it or not, I had more FUN and was happier there than I am Bangkok. In a way I think AC is not a place where one could live, but on the other hand, if you know the 'system'. Know what to expect and try to prevent hassle and what not, I think it 'may' be possible. If I were to live in AC, I would stay in a budget but decent hotel. When I was in AC, the biggest savior was the front desk where the girls check in. First, if a girl follows you, she has to go through that screening proccess. Where as if you had your own place, she can knock on the door. Second, girls have to get IDed there which is nice. Lets get legit good girls there. Third, the location is close where you can avoid Trolleys (I forgot the name of it already, but its the one where they charage you 100 pesos to go somewhere close and has 3 wheels). So you save money there. Third. You avoid Jeepneys. I don't think Jeepneys are dangereous, but its better to avoid IMO especially in a place like AC.
The corruption of the police and beaurucats scare me there, but again, if you follow the law, play by the rules, this 'should' be avoidable. I could see issues with a jealous overly attached bar girl though.
The one thing with this is that it won't be cheap. I'm thinking this kind of lifestyle for food, girls, and a place. Is going to cost around $1500/ month at least.
Another option? Is to head towards Subic Bay area, maybe TRY to find a place to rent on a 3 month contract or what not, and visit AC on the weekends either frequently or a few times per month. This could be money saving on one hand but also could decrease the risk of something crazy to happen. I don't know, but my senses tell me staying in AC for more than two to three months in a row. Something not good is bound to happen.
I like Bangkok. Its nice to have Nana close by but man its expensive or can get expensive. If you want to go bar hopping you are looking at 150-200 thb per bar. Some bars a ***** where if they see you with one drink and you have sat there for 10 min, they will pressure you to buy another drink or get the boot. So lets say 6 bars in one night x 150= 900 THB to 1500 THB. This is ONLY for bar hopping. In AC, the drinks are much cheaper and the pressure is not as extreme like BK.
Bangkok is what it is. Its pretty good on girls, but not the best or euphoria you get with AC. Would like others to share thoughts on living in AC. I really would like to be there on a longer term basis, but I have this sour stomach feeling that it may not be the best. Hmmmmm.
