What can I expect as a first-time expat in Pattaya for two months?
I’m in Pattaya for the first time, I’ll be here for 2 months and I’ve been here a week already! Wild city! Nonstop party haha If anyone wants to drink/blaze up with me hit me up! I’m down for smoke and talking about walking street or going out haha lets get hammered !
Summary so far

Grow up you’re just on holiday and in the Thailand glow like everyone else. Your experience is nothing new for those who travel. There’s a million people just like you I’m sure you will bump into someone without a meeting

I love it how people down Pattaya , they have either never been or been and done it and now on morality path 😂😂😂.
Pattaya is what U make it , doesn't have to be what U see on media platforms.
I lived there 5 years , owned businesses ( not bars ) and was with my long long term partner ( not bar girl ).
I left for a quieter life and to set up business elsewhere.

@Sam *********
I agree with you -I go to Nakhon Ratchasima because my wife comes from the North East . My perspective is that this is the Real Thailand .I am always made to feel welcome when I visit . Also I love the stunning sunsets and admiring the Peace of Rural Thailand .Sam **********
@Dante *********
that is why I prefer korat 😄Dante **********
@Sam *********
moon party is meant for that, but i agree nonetheless. at least we can be thankful there is a town just for them so they don’t leak out into the rest of Thailand too too muchDante **********
@Sam *********
no charm just a town of sexpats and grown men being degeneratesDante **********
