Berlin September 2017

[vnman]

Hi Guys,

Sorry for the delay in feedback.

I arrived In Berlin on a Friday and was busy till Sunday. Which means I didn't go out before that day.

The weather was a real problem. It rained all weekend. This prevented me from making a few quick park visits. I did drive around BHF Zoo a few times. I remember it from the movie Kinder Von Bahnhof Zoo, and it was more a tourist attraction for me.

But of course, you are interested in the boys. I have only been to two bars and met some guys outside. It was early Sunday evening when I got in the Blue boy bar. It was not full, but most seats were taken. Easy because it's a small place. On the right of the entrance, there was a large group of middle-aged men and one younger (21 - 25) middle-eastern looking boy. At the left side of the bar was another older guy talking to a younger guy. Also middle eastern and I guess around 20. He tried to get my attention, but I was not interested. Some older guys kept entering the place but no younger guys while I was there.

Next, I went to Toyboy. That was surely different. Only younger guys, but not my type. The seemed scruffy to me. I think they were mostly eastern European. If you are into that sort, it is undoubtedly the place to go. I must say the people were amicable. I think that was a very pleasant surprise. Not that macho behavior you get when guys try to prove to others that they are mainly men, regardless of their profession.

When you walk outside of Toyboys to the right, you will see a little park/playground...not sure how to call it. It was still raining but not hard, and there were a few boys. I went over, and one of the boys started talking to me. His first question was if I was passive LOL. He spoke pretty good german. I didn't check if he could speak English. But he was maybe 18 years old and pretty cute. His friends were cute too. But all of them had a short beard. Argghhhh, not my taste. But this guy was nice to talk too. He did ask me for 1 Euro :-)

And that was it. Didn't feel the need to bring anyone home and too tired to stay out longer. There are many other bars around, but I honestly think that I've seen the average guy that is to be had in that area. Not for me. But if you are into Middle eastern looking and most with a beard (read: unshaven) or eastern European scruffy looking, then that is undoubtedly the place for you. I guess that the youngest was 18 and the oldest could have been 28 or so.

I wish I had something more to report. Circumstances prevented me from having a good Saturday night out.

I did go out last weekend in Bremen. A place called Gleis 9. It seemed that there was a party in Hanover that same night, so it was not too busy. But the place was still packed with a lot of cute guys. A few from Africa, some eastern Europeans, and the rest German I guess.

Around 6 am I went home with a Russian boy. Spoke perfect German. I gave him 50 Euros when he left the next day, and that was well worth it.

If what he told me is correct, this place should normally be packed. However, I couldn't shake the feeling that I didn't belong there.

I'll be back in Thailand this weekend. Mid-forty, I'm tired of being the oldest guy in the place every night :-)

50 Euro, about 2000 THB, for long time? That's less than in Soi Twilight!

I've tipped exactly the same (50 euro) in Spain before in the past so it's not that uncommon and as you say Christian that IS cheaper than Bangkok, which is why a lot of people seem to be changing holiday plans as I know I certainly got sick of the wham bam thank you mam conveyor belt attitude in Thailand, with the Thai guys just waiting for the next sucker to come along ( no pun intended).

Or as SG has already mentioned the "vodka" and coke type drinks with the vodka maybe being rubbed around the rim of the (tiniest possible ) glass, all oaded with ice and next to damn all vodka etc in it anyway or so little it made no difference to the taste etc and all for the "special" (high) prices they charge.

Actually my mate has just arrived in Bangkok just today from the UK and both he and another friend of his who travelled seperately on two different airlines reported one plane was no more than half full and the other only one quarter full ! SO if that's anything like the norm this week as to the number of people travelling to Thailand in general it'll be interesting to see how the "high" season pans out this year ?
