  How Thailand Bar Girls Select Customers     Introduction to Bar Girls and Customer Selection In Thailand, an intriguing aspect of the nightlife is the hidden scoring system that bar girls use to evaluate customers.  These girls often have a scoring system for their customers. This system is a way for them to prioritize potential patrons based on certain criteria, with the ultimate aim of finding a partner who could potentially take them out of their current situation. The higher a customer scores on their list, the more attention they receive. The scoring system is surprisingly straightforward. At the bottom of the list are foreigners who speak Thai. The girls assume these men are well-acquainted with Thailand and, thus less likely to spend generously. Conversely, a man who doesn't speak Thai dresses smartly in non-local attire, and shows no signs of prolonged sun exposure or familiarity with Thailand instantly ranks higher. This profile suggests a newcomer, potent...

Life in the UK compared to Thailand The biggest differences have to do with the seasons, climate and vibe.  When you live in Thailand it takes about two years to get used to the heat and humidity, Our house is South of Bangkok and averages 31 degrees over the year. In summer it rises to 45 degrees and in the rainy season, it drops to about 28 degrees. Living in that heat wears you down and changes the way you spend your days, going out early in the morning and dodging into air-con rooms mid-afternoon.  Here in the UK, it's totally different as the temperatures are completely different and range from -5 degrees in the Winter to 30 degrees in the Summer.  This leads me to the seasons and if I am honest whilst living in Thailand, I really missed the four seasons in the UK. Thailand really only has two, the Summer and rainy seasons. This is something you really need to consider if you are thinking about moving to Thailand. One thing that is really a huge difference and I felt...

  Affiliate Marketing What is it? If you have a social media presence, a website, a YouTube channel, and A Blog then you can earn money from affiliates. I will try and explain what it is and how you can create a passive income but trust me after 5 years of being an Amazon Affiliate, I have earned less than $50. However, I am going to give it another go and share my experience with you here in my new Blog. It's 2022 and it seems that blogging can help you with this type of marketing if you follow some basic steps, so let's see what happens this time, wish me luck. First of all, what is affiliate marketing in my words? I will use Amazon as our example as I believe it is the biggest affiliate currently.  Amazon one of the biggest online retailers sells thousands of products on its website and so many people around the globe use them at one time or another. For this example, let's use a computer monitor which I recently bought from Amazon here in the UK. Now I saw this monitor...

My Current Equipment here in the UK Since moving back to the UK, what am I using and why, When I flew out of Thailand the most important item I packed was my Apple Macbook Pro M1 2020 laptop. For those who don't know Apple has in my opinion always been the best laptop for high-end editing, design, and photo work and in 2020 they made a huge leap with their new M1 chips which replaced the third-party Intel chips. The difference is amazing and now that I have had this laptop for over a year I can honestly say it is the best laptop I have ever owned. At the time I purchased it, there was only the 13-inch model available but recently Apple released a 16-inch beast and a 14-inch version with even higher specs than mine. If you are ever going to need a high-end laptop for editing or photo work then get one of these models, you won't regret it. click the picture above to see the current  Amazon prices and specifications are available The next item I brought with me from Thailand was ...
