DWB

I'm not afraid, but cautious. I made a living shooting in places like Cuba, Dominican Republic, Colombia, Brazil, and so on waaaay back before people were shooting in those places, so working in Thailand was just another country for me. It just so happened the content paid better than the Latin content did so that is where I put down roots and the place grew on me. This is how I got my foot into the DVD industry, which at that time was pretty closed off to most outsiders. It was more or less myself and TT Boy shooting in these places, so it was easy to sell product to studios or get distribution deals with them.

About the ladyboys being rough, yea, some of them are. But at least here none of them have ever tried to stab me or anything like in Colombia. Though, I don't shoot the rough ones anyway. Bar girls are also hit and miss. I've known some real sweethearts who have nursed me while I was ill, and some real cunts who I've had to call the police on to get her out of my room. Girls are girls no matter where they are from. Flip a coin, never know what you're gonna get.

However, the people are not scum. They can be hard and they have a different view on life, but there are some really good people here. Sure, there is scum here (not just myself ) as there is everywhere in the world, but they are the minority and that is what makes the headlines. The bad people tend to migrate to the tourist areas, so it's easy for tourists to get the impression that the locals are all bad, but that's not the case. Some areas are worse than others, such as Pattaya for example. That is pretty much ground zero for both western and local shit bags. Some decent people there, but they are in the minority in that city. There are a lot of really awesome places here where you don't have to deal with scum bags, local or foreign.
