It was a long week and I decided to get out and see if things are looking better on the streets of Soi Cowboy in Bangkok. It wasn't as it used to be but it wasn't bad either. I've picked up girls at Nana Plaza in Bangkok before so this was a change of scenery for me.

Frequently Asked Questions
What Is the Going Rate for a Soi Cowboy Freelancer?
On my visit it was ฿2,000, at the time of writing. I tried to negotiate, but she wouldn't budge, and we settled there. Prices vary by girl and by the time of night, so agree the price before you leave the soi. I'd also check what's included.
Can I Negotiate with a Freelancer on Soi Cowboy?
You can try. I did, and the girl I picked wouldn't budge, so we settled for ฿2,000. That isn't a rule, and prices change with the time and the girl, so be polite and don't push. If the price is wrong for you, walk away.
Where Do Freelancers Stand on Soi Cowboy?
I found mine at the entrance of the soi. Soi Cowboy bars were open earlier in the evening, with a few girls here and there, but none grabbed my attention, so I looked at the entrance. Freelancers can stand in other spots too, so look around before choosing.
What Was Soi Cowboy Like on My Visit?
It wasn't as it used to be, but it wasn't bad either. The bars were open earlier in the evening, with a few girls here and there. I had picked up girls at Nana Plaza before, so Soi Cowboy was a change of scenery for me.
Is It Safe to Go Bareback with a Freelancer in Bangkok?
No, and I'd not suggest it to anyone. In my story I went in without a condom, and there are real risks, so use one every time. This isn't medical advice: if you take a risk, see a clinic for a check-up and testing.
What Should I Do If a Freelancer Is Reluctant?
Take it as a no. In my story the girl was reluctant about one thing, and I wouldn't advise pressing a girl. Consent comes first, and a condom is the standard. If she isn't comfortable, thank her politely and move on, because there are plenty of other girls.
Can I Take a Soi Cowboy Freelancer Back to My Condo?
I did, and it worked out. I took her back to my condo, but I knew I didn't have her for a long time, so I told her to freshen up quickly. If you're staying in a hotel, check its guest policy first, and put valuables in the safe.
Can I Meet a Soi Cowboy Freelancer Again?
I got her Line ID and decided to meet again. It's a normal way to stay in touch with a girl you liked. Ask politely rather than assume, and agree any future price when you message her, not on the street.
