Trip Planning
I'm new here. Sorry if this is somewhere else or it could be a good idea for a new thread.
Anyone planning any trips soon? If so, where? It's great to have fun with guys from Hawaii and go mongering together that way someone speaks your language even if it is only da kine.
So post your plans. Destinations. Hotels. Tips. etc. I know we can check the main WSG for specific spots, but more power to the local boys.
BTW I'm looking for a trip around the 20-27of July.

Good Idea
Too bad I already live here... one problem I see. Most mongers tend to be introverts and I don't think they would be comfortable doing somthing that they probly keep secret even from their families with another person.

This is a good thread. I was thinking about a monger vacation till I realized that I'm not a dedicated monger (heh). With all of the info discovered at WSG, I'd rather keep mongering as an option rather than a goal. I had one good connection through FriendFinder in Japan last year, and had to travel by Shinkansen from Yokohama to Osaka (not cheap) to meet her. From there, we went directly to Kyoto for the weekend. There was another encounter near the end of the 5 week stay. Will return next March.
In the meantime, am lightly considering Bali/Indonesia, Thailand, and PI. Bali is good for a surf and party vacation, but there are little to no listings at FF. Thailand and PI have plenty of FF listings.
Am interested in going to Germany, Russia, or the Ukraine but the airfares are exorbitant, especially for Russia. Germany would be great since I really like German girls, and still have basic conversational skills. Additionally, the train and transportation system is fairly straight forward once you understand the basics (unlike Japan which can quickly become very intimidating). For that side of the world, Russia has the greatest allure. Made friends with a cool and pretty Russian girl in a KB a few years ago (there were 3 working in a bar for a short time). I get a woody just listening to their accented English.
Due to work commitments, I'll be lucky to get in a short dive trip to the Big Island before the end of summer. My style and goals mostly favor the Lone Ranger approach, but it would be fun to get together with someone now and again.

I'll do it
808skorpio started a thread for mongers from Hawaii to talk about trips they may be planning- AWAY from Hawaii. I just wanted to step in so that Kaybee doesn't have to explain everything. If you read his comments carefully, you will find that they do make a lot of sense.

Just to clarify, I am in Hawaii already if you guys didn't understand my thread. This is for Hawaii people planning on an overseas vacation.

[blue]Hi,
If you want to discuss an overseas trip, then you should be posting in my international travel forum at www.worldsexguiude.info.

It's the right Thread
Tiantain;
I believe Kay Bee's reply was appropriate. I think 808skorpio set this thread to hookup with other Hawaii mongers on trips to other places like Thailand, Phillipines, or other similar destinations. Thailand is still number 1 in my book. Just my 2 cents.

It's the right thread for sure. It's about Hawaii people going to other places, so we'll be able to compare and contrast other places relative to what we have here. That said, Thailand is great value, but Macau is amazing in terms of quality and selection.

What kind of deals can you get from Hawaii to Macau, and when are the fares the cheapest? Always wanted to go there.
TIA,

People in Hawaii have an American sub-culture that to a certain extent, sets us apart from the rest of the people in the U.S. Although the International forums are without a doubt the definitve resource on this subject, sometimes it is clearer and more comfortable to communicate and compare notes among ourselves as well.

2650[/QUOTE]You go from Hawaii to Hong Kong, then take a one hour ferry to Macau. I think fares are cheapest September-November, but if you go to Panda travel or some other big travel agent, they usually have cheap airfares all the time.

BTW I'm looking for a trip around the 20-27of July.[/QUOTE]Went to Thailand once and it was cheap and a lot of gfe if your looking for that. I butterflyed and got a glued key hole for me and my crew LOL. I’m going soon with my fellow part time mongers.
I can see the reason for this forum but like some one said most monger are loners. I like to go with people who I know personally. My main reason is that I know how my fellow compatriots act under certain circumstances (drunk) and in a fight or flight situation the last thing I need is a closet as*hole when inebriated. When in a foreign country one must consider the criminal element and brushes with the law enforcement.
There are three reasons why I wouldn’t take a trip to the PI as someone mentioned!
1. The amount of political factions (communist insurgents, Muslims, anti government militants) that are active in the PI. Last thing I would want to be is a ransom hostage because I’m American. Of course these factions are geographically dispersed so the threat level is dependent on where you are going.
2. One of my friends temporarily lived in the PI and said if he had to choose between the PI or Thailand he said that Thailand is better.
3. I you happen to be of the Japanese persuasion (hapun) I wouldn’t think the local population has of yet forgotten the atrocities the Jpn army did there during WW II .. LOL
Just my two cents but I can see why a person would like to got mongering in a foreign land with a fellow local since you can talk pidgin and even English speakers wouldn’t understand what the hell are your talking about.
I hear that Mexico and south America has some action going on too.

I know the ferry from HK has been well covered in the world board, so I'm just looking for cheap fares from here to HK or all the way to Macau if there are any package deals forom Hawaii.
