I'm in Bangkok now, not sure how long I'm staying but I will definitely be here early January because I'm meeting up with a friend here and we're going down south. Let me know your plans and if I'm in BKK I'll try to meet up with you.

BKK is simple. Catch a cab from the airport to Koh San Roh, check into a motel, hang out at one of the bars there and get a SNL your first night (hopefully a new euro flag).

KSR is the tourist hub for SE Asia, it's super easy to book flights/buses/whatever. Plus, there is a seemingly unlimited supply of easy backpacker lizards. I wouldn't count on banging thai girls, quality ones are hard to come by and if you do run into one she'll be used to the foreigner's motives and not put out easily.

I am leaving on my solo trip tomorrow. Taiwan nov 27 to dec 3, Thailand dec 3-16.

I was fine until this morning, when I woke up and realized- "holy shit. im leaving 1/2 way across the world tomorrow, by myself w/no immediate friends/fam in those cities"

Anxiety/Anticipation level has been creeping up all day. If any of you guys wish to meet, im game. Want to go out nigh-time 4x/week.

First time I traveled alone. I pipelined a lot before I went over. It really calmed my nerves. That way you have friends before going over.

I am currently on a trip now, and I am glad it was not my first time solo traveling as I had a hard time the first days. Rocking up in Hong Kong without having a place to stay, and then find out all hotels were booked was not ideal. Walking the streets trying to find a quiet bench in a park to sleep in is not relaxing.

Don't worry. Most likely you'll have a really good time, and if not you will grow a lot for your next journey.

In a few days I'll be in Bangkok also. Just have some gambling plans in Cambodia first!
