RE: Mayflower Bar - Chiang Mai: random discover / nothing special
I think it is smart not letting on that you know Thai. I am sure you have surprised a few people in the past. Must be terrible being harassed and your comment about hansommme man now rings a bell.
one time ... while someone was busy talking trash about me right in my face i wrote my name (in Thai) on the piece of paper that was between us.... it was amazing.... i mean just amazing... how her attitude changed after she saw me write the first 2 letters. Then i calmly asked for my bill (in English)
She must have been shocked and a good lesson learnt at the same time. It is a handy tool to have and a secret weapon. There cant be many westerners who speak and understand Thai. Most will presume you are a tourist.
