1. Where to Find Freelancers

A. Mobile apps and websites
- ThaiFriendly.com (TF): This is the most popular online platform in Thailand. It has a high volume of freelancers, especially in Pattaya and Bangkok
- Apps: Tinder, Tantan, LINE and WeChat (find nearby feature) are also used
- Telegram groups: There are also some Telegram groups to find freelancers as well, like https://t.me/THAINightLife. For general mongering discussion, there is also https://t.me/thai_nightlife_funinthai

B. Locations in Bangkok
- Thermae Cafe: A well-known basement bar where independent freelancers gather. Most people pay a small entry drink fee to do a walk-through. Best before 1am
- Clubs and Bars: Nightclubs like Levels (Soi 11) or Sugar Nightclub, as well as bars along Sukhumvit (Soi 4, Soi 7), have freelancers.
- Massage Shops and K-Spas: Many massage places along Sukhumvit (Soi 22, Soi 24, Soi 33) feature freelancers or sideline workers offering short-time services.

C. Locations in Pattaya
- Beer Bars and Streets: Soi 6, Soi Buakhao, Tree Town, and Beach Road.
- GentlemenÂ’s Clubs & Gogos: Walking Street gogos and Gentlemen's Clubs on Soi Bongkoch

2. Going rates

Prices vary depending on location, appearance and negotiation skills

Pattaya Rates
ST: 1-2k. Best to stick to a strict 1k offer
LT: 2-3.5k
Bar Fine: Usually around 1-1.5k

Bangkok Rates
ST: Typically 1.5-3k. Places like Thermae usually 2-3k
LT: 3-5k+
Gogo Bars & High-End Venues: Higher overall cost due to lady drinks, bar fines (1-3k) and higher base fees (3-8k).

3. How to get the best experience

- App photos often use heavy filters or older pictures. Request a quick video call on LINE or WhatsApp before booking an outcall to confirm actual appearance
- When messaging on apps, stay direct. Confirm she is a freelancer, negotiate the price, specify duration and ask for her contact details
- Always discuss expectations upfront (price, condom use, specific acts, kissing, duration). Do not wait until you are inside the room to negotiate
- Ask to take a shower together or request that both of you shower. Cleanliness sets a good standard for the session.
Treat her well: Independent freelancers do not have a mamasan or strict time clock. If you build good chemistry and treat her with respect, you are more likely to get a genuine GFE or an extended stay
- Keep payment ready and exact
- Make sure she is sober before inviting her to your hotel room
- If it is your first trip, visit different venues to see what fits your preference
- Don't assume higher prices mean lower risk. Paying more does not guarantee better attitude, punctuality or hygiene
- Don't pay everything upfront without agreement
