What was your total spend for the trip, roughly? Trying to budget for mine.

Thanks for sharing. Did you use an agency or find girls at clubs?

Agreed on all points. One thing I'd add — make sure to book your hotel in advance.

Adding to this thread with my own experience from last month:
I noticed some changes since my last visit in 2023.
Biggest change: More girls working online now.
Still a great destination. One of my top 3 worldwide.

I had a bad experience there last year. Maybe I went at the wrong time?

Spot on with the prices. That's exactly what I paid when I visited in February.
