Re: Ask WhoIam anything about living in Vientiane, Laos
I don't smoke pot anymore, but have talked to a lot of people who do and frequently see kids who are obviously blazed. The worst you have to fear is paying a fine of a couple hundred dollars. Finding pot isn't a problem. Every tuk-tuk driver (and there are a lot) will offer to sell you some. Some are apparently operating with cops though, so your best bet would be to find a local or backbacker with a connection. Despite some government crackdowns, opium is still widely available and is not considered too big of a deal. Unfortunately there are no longer opium dens in Vientiane, but some are apparently still operating in the countryside.
So far the hardest drug I've done is Xanax (which I don't even enjoy that much) but I'm going to see if adderall, vicodin, etc. are available just by walking into a pharmacy. I plan on getting some opium if I can find a reputable source. It was fun the few times it was around in college.
