Pages : 70

Book Description
A good Thai girl spills the inside story about dating Thai women. You can find love in Thailand with girls who are marriage material, look like billboard fashion models, work in office jobs, speak fluent English, and don't see you as just a meal ticket. But it's not easy or automatic. In Thailand, you can't just approach strangers in public, even at a club or bar. And many of the women who you might think are "good Thai girls" are actually prostitutes in disguise. This book is the complete Thai insider's guide to meet good Thai girls, online or offline, understand typical Thai girls and red flags to watch for, go on a first date, proceed to sex, and pursue a long-term relationship. Learn Thai cultural points, such as spotting ladyboys, negotiating a family's requests for a marriage dowry, and even dressing for a date in Bangkok. It's not hard. You don't have to speak Thai. Even if you've never been to Thailand before, you can manage it. Linda Chomatree was born in Bangkok, studied in the US and the UK, and now travels between the US and Bangkok, working in her family's real estate business. She's seen foreigners in Thailand fall flat on their faces dating prostitutes or embarrassing themselves trying to chat up random women on the street. This book is her project to try to help foreign men find love with Thai women who aren't prostitutes and who don't tarnish Thai women's image. Your good Thai girl is waiting for you. This book is for finding her.

Spirits of San Francisco

Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1635575893
Category : Travel
Languages : en
Pages : 230

Book Description
The bestselling book from two prizewinning, critically acclaimed contemporary chroniclers of San Francisco-a rich, illustrated, idiosyncratic portrait of this great city. In Spirits of San Francisco, #1 bestselling Cool Gray City of Love author Gary Kamiya joins forces with celebrated, bestselling artist Paul Madonna to take a fresh look at this one-of-a-kind city. Marrying image and text in a way no book about this city has done before, Kamiya's illuminating narratives accompany Madonna's masterful pen-and-ink drawings, breathing life into San Francisco sites both iconic and obscure. Paul Madonna's atmospheric images will awe: his wide-angle drawings offer a new perspective on the “crookedest street in the world” and vistas across the city. And Kamiya's engaging prose, accompanying each image, offers striking vignettes of this incredible city: witness his story of “Dumpville,” the bizarre community that sprang up in the 19th century on top of a massive garbage dump. Handsome and irresistible-much like the city it chronicles-Spirits of San Francisco is both a visual feast and a detailed, personal, loving, informed portrait of a beloved city.
