Well, I've decided to make monthly visits to HCMC. My next trip Jan. 23-24. Anyone in town lets get coffee and chat and see whatsup.
For my last trip FR:
Hotel I stay at was a chain called A25. It's cheap, not super fancy, GF friendly, and has everything in a small room. No issues with the hotel and I like it very much.
Typically what I do are:
Local goi dau (clean): 100k for hair wash, facial, nail cutting, ear cleaning by a young girl. Many of these shops around outside of d1 (i avoid the d1 places which have prettier girls but higher prices).
KTVs: Lots of KTVS. KTV1 in D1 catered to foreigners. Set menu for unlimited time ($140 USD for bottle + a few mixers + a few plates of fruit + unlimited time for karaoke). Girls are charging 2.5M ST and 3.5M LT. Pricey for my taste, but my girl was actually crying in middle of the night, and she says her mom is having surgery tomorrow morning. My BS radar didn't go off, so I went with her ST and gave her 2.5M and told her I don't usually do ST/LT but because he needed $$$ for her mom. Let's say she calls me everynight now and ask how I am, if I ate dinner yet, etc.
KTV2: Very local KTV. First time I went to this KTV i met a total stunner. However, manager says 1st time in his ktv cannot go with girl, must come back 2nd to start that service. Room is very plain. Need to know a manager before hand to get in. KTV system sucks. But girls allow crazy AR in the room, and ST is 1M. Bill was about 1.7M for 2 guys + 200k to manager and 200k to service. At the time, my girl was not available (christmas holiday) so went with another okay girl. Great in bed though.
KTV3/4: Tried going to a local KTV in same street at KTV2. Tried walking up and introducing myself. No go. Both place kicked me out.
KTV5/Motorbike guy: I know a guy that delivers girls for 700k on this street,100k tip + 100k for st hotel. first girl was okay, second girl was not okay. Anyways, called him up and asked him to introduce me to a KTV. He introduce me to one of my favorite KTV so far. Manager of KTV5 says ~100 girls there. Place mainly for koreans. Line up comes in with 20 girls. I ask manager why only 20 and not 100. Manager says obviously girls in other rooms, and also cannot fit so many girls in 1 room for line-up. If no like these girls, he bring in another line-up. Go with 2 stunners. 1 was super shy. Other was more open. Eventually got to start touching her breast in room. Bill was about 2M. Why I like this place: Nice decoration, good line-up, and allow AR. Usually nice decoration means you can't AR. If I think back to all KTV's I've gone to, this compares to the famous one near Binh Duong/Dong Nai.
Other than that, what i did: a couple clean massages for 300k to 400k including tip (best full body massage that I've found in HCMC). A few foot massages in D5 by girls wearing short skirt and white t-shirts showing cleavage. A lot of cafe with pretty girls that will serve you (but no hanky panky).
