Normal english but slowly and keeping it simple.

Ex to a hot fruit seller :
Hey honey pie could you please give me one kilogram of fresh rambutan?

becomes :
Sawatdee kap, one kilo of rambutan please, kap.

I'm lucky in that I've been able to talk to Americans on an almost daily basis while in SE Asia. I still find myself saying things like "where you go?" to other farang. My friend here (American) lives in Buenos Aires and speaks with a Spanish accent when he talks to Thai or Lao people in English.

thats an oxymoron. My advice, take a bus to Malaysia go to china town and you'll see more fake watches then u'll ever need for cheap.

It looks like I'll be staying in Laos for a while. I started an "ask WhoIam anything about living in Vientiane" thread in the travel forum if anyone is interested. Drop me a line if you come here for a visa run or something and I'll show you around.

I just came back from the ladyboy bar in Nana Plaza. There was this one which looked like Jennifer Love Hewitt and had the best [censored] ever. She spoke quite good English as well. I bought her a drink but told her that I had no sexual intentions at all. I just wanted to talk and learn more about the ladyboy culture. She kept insisting we went to the hotel upstairs and I just had to try a ladyboy. I kept saying I was tired and kept asking her questions like are you post op or pre op, how many customers do you get a day, etc. She got kinda annoyed and kept on asking why won't I leave with her. I then said I really think you are beautiful but I just want to talk. In the end, she kept quiet and looked really sad. I feel kinda bad. I told her I would come back and buy her another drink another day and left.

PS: Had an interesting conversation once with a ladyboy, he wanted to buy me drinks and i m never against free booze so i said yes, but after I had to listen to him talk about the different aspects of penis removal for about 30min.
not really something i wanted to learn about.
