When I think of prostitution in SE Asia I remember this movie

And I thought that there were not supposed to be reviews posted here. Leave it to Tristan to pull off such a feat!
 
Very informative to boot covering all the bases!

(For Escorts and Clients alike; take this as you will...)
 
Since it seemed like the type of unusual place that not so many of the guys on this board visit, I thought I'd take a few moments to share some of my experiences here, and keep guys from either making an expensive mistake / going into something knowing what it will be and what it WON'T...so they can concentrate on having a vacation, etc.
 
First- getting here is not going to be one of the cheaper destinations you'll find. Expect to find it around 800-1300 USD, from most places in the US, economy. Had a ticket set up from BDL(Bradley field in Connecticut, our small little airport), for just over $1000 to Hong Kong...so I looked up how much it'd be to make it multi-city, and stop off in Singapore for a time- only increased the price by $160 and change. So I would NOT do this place as a 'standalone' destination, but rather as part of a larger Asia itinerary.
 
Second- Hotels. No offense to the clients from Singapore that might be on this page; but they are very picky about the location of hotels. If you grab a place down by Sentosa Island(the resort area), you'll be too far away...even though the Metro out in Singapore is phenomenal. It'd be like staying out in Oakland, while you advertise in San Francisco- there are going to be a majority of people who just can't or don't wanna swing the trip. Also, you might find a great deal on Orchard Road or in the Geylang area of town on a four star hotel- but believe it or not, some clients are gonna find those locations unsatisfactory as there is female prostitution going on nearby(Case and point- for one day of my trip I was staying at the 4.5 star[believe me, it was NICE] Orchard Hotel, on Orchard Road. Right next door is the infamous 3 star 'Orchard Towers', also known as 'Four Floors of Whores'- where there are probably 400 female or transgender prostitutes randomly rolling around.) Many clients didn't wanna be anywhere near that. Also...if you grab too 'boutique-y' of a hotel, security at the front desk is most certainly going to wonder what is going on, as almost every hotel had the dreaded keycard-activated elevators. You'll have to do alot of tapdancing to stay off the radar screen.
 
Transportation- As discussed above, the MTR is phenomenal and everything worth seeing is pretty much a few blocks off the line. For those of you fitness guys out there, a great way to see singapore is to wake up decently early- like 630/7AM, and go for a walk or a run, several miles each day- and divide the city center up into quadrants and really walk and run across it all. The hustle and bustle and crowds don't start till 9 / 10AM, so you'll be on pretty vacant streets.
 
Food- American food brands will be ultra expensive out here. For a mixed drink and a pizza at California Pizza Kitchen(on the final day of the trip I was craving a taste of home)- it was the equivalent of $42.00 US. (Frame of reference- roughly 1.4- 1.5 SGD for every 1 USD.). There aren't a ton of huge grocery stores(called 'Cold Storage') here, there will be lines even getting into small places like 7-11's. The majority of people in Singapore stock up once or twice a month, then eat out quite a great deal. There are places like 'Lau Pa Sat'- an open market with all sorts of food stalls where you'll get chicken, race, soup or a small salad/vegetables for literally 5 SGD- 4 bucks US. Portions are just a hair smaller then US portions so I found myself eating more meals a day. Probably a good thing in the long run.
 
OHHHHHHHHHH- very good piece of advice here from a west coast client/friend in San Francisco- bring Rolaids, Tums, or some other sodium bicarbonate or bismuth/antacids or whatever it's called, to nullify the effects of all the spicy foods and stuff you aren't used to. In addition- medicinal charcoal is available cheap in the pharmacies to help food poisoning, as is 'arsenicum', something available at health stores here in the US- it'll help get used to the food.
 
Alcohol- very expensive here, if you are a drinker...buy it at the duty free at the airport and bring it in with you, otherwise, you'll get SHELLED.
 
Clients- VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY(Did I say VERY?) Conservative. They won't even wanna be seen on an open street with you...for fear of getting spotted or labeled or judged. Most have never done this before or very infrequently, so it'll require a massive degree of patience to deal with them. Also, because of language barriers(even though English is the working language over there), you'll want to kind of identify how long you're going to be playing for, several times over. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a clock watcher- I always try and give tons of extra time...but alot of the younger clients here(another reason I don't prefer young clients; they don't understand the nature of this), seem to think they have you for the night. Perhaps that's because the female prostitution here is on that same level- by the night vs shorter session? I literally had a kid show up in my room and start unpacking clothes and opening my drawers and putting his stuff into them-(AT 6PM AT NIGHT MIND YOU), and I'm kinda like..."..Umm..what are you doing...?"- and his response in broken english(he was Indonesian vs. true Singaporean) was "I'm just making room so we have for space for our night together". LOL. Again, this is why I don't go for the young ones- they'd hard enough in the English culture let alone overseas.
 
Sights- Marina Bay Sands is an absolute MARVEL of construction. However, to see the full thing up top(A park, pools, mega beautiful...built like 65 stories up..), you have to be a guest there. Otherwise, it costs about $16 US to go up the elevators just to see the observation deck. In my opinion, kind of a waste- if I could get a room there for $250, I would have rather paid the 250 to see the entire thing, vs. just the 16 to see the observation deck. Problem is, thing was SOLD OUT. I kid you not, not even listing prices on Priceline; all three towers SOLD to the brim. Asian gamblers primarily from all over the Orient, with serious $.
 
Gay culture- About 4 gay bars in the entire fucking city, with none of them having nice terraces or anything outdoors to enjoy the temperate weather- all closed door cement ugliness to 'hide' what is within. A shame.
 
Just waking up and adjusting to the time change here on the East Coast, but I just thought I'd jot down some thoughts.

Just waking up and adjusting to the time change here on the East Coast, but I just thought I'd jot down some thoughts.

They are still a thing! Not that I fly enough to use them.

(For Escorts and Clients alike; take this as you will...)
 
Since it seemed like the type of unusual place that not so many of the guys on this board visit, I thought I'd take a few moments to share some of my experiences here, and keep guys from either making an expensive mistake / going into something knowing what it will be and what it WON'T...so they can concentrate on having a vacation, etc.
 
First- getting here is not going to be one of the cheaper destinations you'll find. Expect to find it around 800-1300 USD, from most places in the US, economy. Had a ticket set up from BDL(Bradley field in Connecticut, our small little airport), for just over $1000 to Hong Kong...so I looked up how much it'd be to make it multi-city, and stop off in Singapore for a time- only increased the price by $160 and change. So I would NOT do this place as a 'standalone' destination, but rather as part of a larger Asia itinerary.
 
Second- Hotels. No offense to the clients from Singapore that might be on this page; but they are very picky about the location of hotels. If you grab a place down by Sentosa Island(the resort area), you'll be too far away...even though the Metro out in Singapore is phenomenal. It'd be like staying out in Oakland, while you advertise in San Francisco- there are going to be a majority of people who just can't or don't wanna swing the trip. Also, you might find a great deal on Orchard Road or in the Geylang area of town on a four star hotel- but believe it or not, some clients are gonna find those locations unsatisfactory as there is female prostitution going on nearby(Case and point- for one day of my trip I was staying at the 4.5 star[believe me, it was NICE] Orchard Hotel, on Orchard Road. Right next door is the infamous 3 star 'Orchard Towers', also known as 'Four Floors of Whores'- where there are probably 400 female or transgender prostitutes randomly rolling around.) Many clients didn't wanna be anywhere near that. Also...if you grab too 'boutique-y' of a hotel, security at the front desk is most certainly going to wonder what is going on, as almost every hotel had the dreaded keycard-activated elevators. You'll have to do alot of tapdancing to stay off the radar screen.
 
Transportation- As discussed above, the MTR is phenomenal and everything worth seeing is pretty much a few blocks off the line. For those of you fitness guys out there, a great way to see singapore is to wake up decently early- like 630/7AM, and go for a walk or a run, several miles each day- and divide the city center up into quadrants and really walk and run across it all. The hustle and bustle and crowds don't start till 9 / 10AM, so you'll be on pretty vacant streets.
 
Food- American food brands will be ultra expensive out here. For a mixed drink and a pizza at California Pizza Kitchen(on the final day of the trip I was craving a taste of home)- it was the equivalent of $42.00 US. (Frame of reference- roughly 1.4- 1.5 SGD for every 1 USD.). There aren't a ton of huge grocery stores(called 'Cold Storage') here, there will be lines even getting into small places like 7-11's. The majority of people in Singapore stock up once or twice a month, then eat out quite a great deal. There are places like 'Lau Pa Sat'- an open market with all sorts of food stalls where you'll get chicken, race, soup or a small salad/vegetables for literally 5 SGD- 4 bucks US. Portions are just a hair smaller then US portions so I found myself eating more meals a day. Probably a good thing in the long run.
 
OHHHHHHHHHH- very good piece of advice here from a west coast client/friend in San Francisco- bring Rolaids, Tums, or some other sodium bicarbonate or bismuth/antacids or whatever it's called, to nullify the effects of all the spicy foods and stuff you aren't used to. In addition- medicinal charcoal is available cheap in the pharmacies to help food poisoning, as is 'arsenicum', something available at health stores here in the US- it'll help get used to the food.
 
Alcohol- very expensive here, if you are a drinker...buy it at the duty free at the airport and bring it in with you, otherwise, you'll get SHELLED.
 
Clients- VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY(Did I say VERY?) Conservative. They won't even wanna be seen on an open street with you...for fear of getting spotted or labeled or judged. Most have never done this before or very infrequently, so it'll require a massive degree of patience to deal with them. Also, because of language barriers(even though English is the working language over there), you'll want to kind of identify how long you're going to be playing for, several times over. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a clock watcher- I always try and give tons of extra time...but alot of the younger clients here(another reason I don't prefer young clients; they don't understand the nature of this), seem to think they have you for the night. Perhaps that's because the female prostitution here is on that same level- by the night vs shorter session? I literally had a kid show up in my room and start unpacking clothes and opening my drawers and putting his stuff into them-(AT 6PM AT NIGHT MIND YOU), and I'm kinda like..."..Umm..what are you doing...?"- and his response in broken english(he was Indonesian vs. true Singaporean) was "I'm just making room so we have for space for our night together". LOL. Again, this is why I don't go for the young ones- they'd hard enough in the English culture let alone overseas.
 
Sights- Marina Bay Sands is an absolute MARVEL of construction. However, to see the full thing up top(A park, pools, mega beautiful...built like 65 stories up..), you have to be a guest there. Otherwise, it costs about $16 US to go up the elevators just to see the observation deck. In my opinion, kind of a waste- if I could get a room there for $250, I would have rather paid the 250 to see the entire thing, vs. just the 16 to see the observation deck. Problem is, thing was SOLD OUT. I kid you not, not even listing prices on Priceline; all three towers SOLD to the brim. Asian gamblers primarily from all over the Orient, with serious $.
 
Gay culture- About 4 gay bars in the entire fucking city, with none of them having nice terraces or anything outdoors to enjoy the temperate weather- all closed door cement ugliness to 'hide' what is within. A shame.

Tristan,
 
This is an excellent and informative post. I hope we see more of these type of threads from you and other members of the forum. This is helpful to the working guys and clients and may spur someone to visit a locale or avoid for that matter.
 
Thanks for inaugurating "Tristan's Travelogues".

Just waking up and adjusting to the time change here on the East Coast, but I just thought I'd jot down some thoughts.

This type of thread is an extremely good idea. It's not easy to quickly and easily find information on the escorting scene in exotic destinations. Tristan, thank you so much for posting this.

thanks Tristan for your travel review. I think you could have another career to add to your busy resume.

Living in Bangkok, I meet a lot of guys from Singapore that come here for the weekends. Then they can let their hair down an have some fun. A short flight, they all go home Sunday night.
I have a Thai friend that escorts. He went to Singapore a month ago and made a small fortune working off Hornet. He's headed back next month. As Tristen said, clients very conversative. Most will meet my friend at hotels, as they don't want friends or neighbors to see anyone coming or going.

Outstanding report Mr. Baldwin...Fascinating environment. Makes me sorta glad that I live in these United States. We take the good with the bad here, but I wouldn't want to live anywhere else. No emails please...just my humble opinion.
 
Safe travels my friend, and enjoy!!!

Good summary Tristan, some great points for new visitors to Singapore. I haven't been there for years and years. You're right that eating at US branded restaurants will be expensive, people may find it cheaper to eat in local restaurants serving western cuisine so they don't pay for the cachet of a US brand. I always found street food to be cheap and delicious, but then I love Chinese and Nonya food (and Malay and Indian curries). Times I visited Penang in Malaysia on work trips (years ago) the consensus always was that if you were going to get a bait [food poisoning] it would be in a hotel restaurant and not at a street food market.
 
I can't speak to gay culture but homosexuality is illegal in Singapore and Malaysia, although the degree of enforcement of the law is variable.
 
Air fares are variable and if you are prepared to buy non-refundable tickets you can get good deals. Fares from Australia tend to be expensive. Clearly you pay more for refundable tickets. (I can't remember all the details but I paid about AUD3400 [uSD2300 at the time] for a fully flexible Canberra to DC and return ticket with a stopover in LA: I could have bought a roundtrip Sydney- LA non-refundable ticket for about AUD1100 [uSD750].)

OHHHHHHHHHH- very good piece of advice here from a west coast client/friend in San Francisco- bring Rolaids, Tums, or some other sodium bicarbonate or bismuth/antacids or whatever it's called, to nullify the effects of all the spicy foods and stuff you aren't used to. In addition- medicinal charcoal is available cheap in the pharmacies to help food poisoning, as is 'arsenicum', something available at health stores here in the US- it'll help get used to the food.
 
Alcohol- very expensive here, if you are a drinker...buy it at the duty free at the airport and bring it in with you, otherwise, you'll get SHELLED.
 
Clients- VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY(Did I say VERY?) Conservative. They won't even wanna be seen on an open street with you...for fear of getting spotted or labeled or judged. Most have never done this before or very infrequently, so it'll require a massive degree of patience to deal with them. Also, because of language barriers(even though English is the working language over there), you'll want to kind of identify how long you're going to be playing for, several times over. Anyone who knows me knows I'm not a clock watcher- I always try and give tons of extra time...but alot of the younger clients here(another reason I don't prefer young clients; they don't understand the nature of this), seem to think they have you for the night. Perhaps that's because the female prostitution here is on that same level- by the night vs shorter session? I literally had a kid show up in my room and start unpacking clothes and opening my drawers and putting his stuff into them-(AT 6PM AT NIGHT MIND YOU), and I'm kinda like..."..Umm..what are you doing...?"- and his response in broken english(he was Indonesian vs. true Singaporean) was "I'm just making room so we have for space for our night together". LOL. Again, this is why I don't go for the young ones- they'd hard enough in the English culture let alone overseas.
 
Sights- Marina Bay Sands is an absolute MARVEL of construction. However, to see the full thing up top(A park, pools, mega beautiful...built like 65 stories up..), you have to be a guest there. Otherwise, it costs about $16 US to go up the elevators just to see the observation deck. In my opinion, kind of a waste- if I could get a room there for $250, I would have rather paid the 250 to see the entire thing, vs. just the 16 to see the observation deck. Problem is, thing was SOLD OUT. I kid you not, not even listing prices on Priceline; all three towers SOLD to the brim. Asian gamblers primarily from all over the Orient, with serious $.
 
Gay culture- About 4 gay bars in the entire fucking city, with none of them having nice terraces or anything outdoors to enjoy the temperate weather- all closed door cement ugliness to 'hide' what is within. A shame.
 
Just waking up and adjusting to the time change here on the East Coast, but I just thought I'd jot down some thoughts.

(For Escorts and Clients alike; take this as you will...)
 
Since it seemed like the type of unusual place that not so many of the guys on this board visit, I thought I'd take a few moments to share some of my experiences here, and keep guys from either making an expensive mistake / going into something knowing what it will be and what it WON'T...so they can concentrate on having a vacation, etc.
 
First- getting here is not going to be one of the cheaper destinations you'll find. Expect to find it around 800-1300 USD, from most places in the US, economy. Had a ticket set up from BDL(Bradley field in Connecticut, our small little airport), for just over $1000 to Hong Kong...so I looked up how much it'd be to make it multi-city, and stop off in Singapore for a time- only increased the price by $160 and change. So I would NOT do this place as a 'standalone' destination, but rather as part of a larger Asia itinerary.
 
Second- Hotels. No offense to the clients from Singapore that might be on this page; but they are very picky about the location of hotels. If you grab a place down by Sentosa Island(the resort area), you'll be too far away...even though the Metro out in Singapore is phenomenal. It'd be like staying out in Oakland, while you advertise in San Francisco- there are going to be a majority of people who just can't or don't wanna swing the trip. Also, you might find a great deal on Orchard Road or in the Geylang area of town on a four star hotel- but believe it or not, some clients are gonna find those locations unsatisfactory as there is female prostitution going on nearby(Case and point- for one day of my trip I was staying at the 4.5 star[believe me, it was NICE] Orchard Hotel, on Orchard Road. Right next door is the infamous 3 star 'Orchard Towers', also known as 'Four Floors of Whores'- where there are probably 400 female or transgender prostitutes randomly rolling around.) Many clients didn't wanna be anywhere near that. Also...if you grab too 'boutique-y' of a hotel, security at the front desk is most certainly going to wonder what is going on, as almost every hotel had the dreaded keycard-activated elevators. You'll have to do alot of tapdancing to stay off the radar screen.
 
Transportation- As discussed above, the MTR is phenomenal and everything worth seeing is pretty much a few blocks off the line. For those of you fitness guys out there, a great way to see singapore is to wake up decently early- like 630/7AM, and go for a walk or a run, several miles each day- and divide the city center up into quadrants and really walk and run across it all. The hustle and bustle and crowds don't start till 9 / 10AM, so you'll be on pretty vacant streets.
 
Food- American food brands will be ultra expensive out here. For a mixed drink and a pizza at California Pizza Kitchen(on the final day of the trip I was craving a taste of home)- it was the equivalent of $42.00 US. (Frame of reference- roughly 1.4- 1.5 SGD for every 1 USD.). There aren't a ton of huge grocery stores(called 'Cold Storage') here, there will be lines even getting into small places like 7-11's. The majority of people in Singapore stock up once or twice a month, then eat out quite a great deal. There are places like 'Lau Pa Sat'- an open market with all sorts of food stalls where you'll get chicken, race, soup or a small salad/vegetables for literally 5 SGD- 4 bucks US. Portions are just a hair smaller then US portions so I found myself eating more meals a day. Probably a good thing in the long run.

Just waking up and adjusting to the time change here on the East Coast, but I just thought I'd jot down some thoughts.

I'm not sure if 'TPL' is NYCFAN, under a new name, as he says 'I wrote the two reviews on Daddys'; but I know the NYCFAN who wrote those reviews, and he's about as good and as decent as they come. Easy to communicate with, truthful, fun. Even though his travels and I haven't allowed our paths to cross in some time, we still stay in contact about once a week or so...never even about 'work' or anything to do with escorting. A really solid dude- so if he says someone's good; they're good. Have never met this Marzinni myself, but know clients who've obviously seen him and a photographer that shot him, and say good things. Sorry to hear that someone else had difficulties scheduling with this guy...perhaps it's the all-overnight thing that's scaring him away? Try connecting for a shorter period first....speaking from experience, the ideas of newer guys in the industry to overnights can be daunting...

Only porn models at the top of their game can theoretically demand 400.00 an hour, and he's not Chris Bines, Ryan Rose (can't abide him, but the bitch is booking gigs left & right), or David Benjamin. Leo has been out of the business a few years, and you do not ask top table prices when you have no good current advertising to back that up. For that money, you need to squall like Michael Brandon, be more flexible than any member of the US Men's gymnastics team, and be saying "Hell yeah, I can take a DP, motherfucker!".

The wrapping is nice...but does any man with a modicum of common sense want to lay down 450 an hour for average dick & mental baggage? I know some who have more money than brains would....but for the rest, who would take that proposition?
 
For that hourly rate, then you need to make a Rocco Steele look "average" in the penis department.....and make a Tristan Baldwin seem like an Olympic caliber douche....

I'm amazed that this guy, with his 'presence' that he touts in the industry...doesn't even come on this board to creep it for information, leads, etc? He'll be thorough enough to have a travelling gang but yet not thorough enough to come on Daddy's Reviews? #Lacking
 
If he only knew what was being said about him. LOL. Such glorious things. I've never met the guy, but a reliable client who is too discrete to post on here(convince his email/information/etc. can be hacked or compromised, or his wife will somehow find out), went to meet him during an upstate NY tour the guy was on. Said that the minute he walked in the room he was surrounded by a flock of guys, and felt really uncomfortable...and he bounced out of there. Client is super nice too...the least confrontational guy you'd ever meet, and even he said it was fight or flight at that point..
