Have you eaten there Fly?
What's the code words for ordreing sex off the menu??? "I'd like some clam tacos?"

It's a hostess restaurant, very common in all of SEA, you go to a restaurant and have hot sexy girls sit with you and your friends and eat and drink. Then extra services are extra , but I am sure they didn't pay off or missed a payment because it is part of the culture.

You are correct Diggity aka the new Dad, even though this was not the kind that people party with. You could not pay me to do a balloon. Now give me some clean chemist tested, Mathew P or 2C-B and we are in business.

This is unbelievable , absolutely unreal.

Nineteen-year-old Mahmood Akram from India has amazed the world by mastering 400 languages while simultaneously pursuing multiple university degrees. His linguistic journey began early under the guidance of his father, a linguistics expert, and by the age of six, he had already surpassed his mentor’s knowledge.

At just eight years old, Akram set a world record as the youngest multilingual typist, and by 12, he impressed German linguists with fluency in 400 languages.

Driven by his passion, Akram started teaching languages through YouTube at 14, attracting a global audience. By 2024, he had conducted language workshops in multiple countries, sharing his expertise with students worldwide.

LOL. It's good to see them having fun, but the teacher was showing her students' faces and gaining content from these videos. I don't think it's being professional.

This is the motherland Genie. This is not America. Different culture and laws here. There is nothing wrong with this video in my opinion.

I think what I'm saying is.. not all parents would like their kid's faces to be exposed in socmed, Fly. I have teacher friends that hide their kids' faces if they post it on FB, simple post like a classroom awards.

This is Vietnam Genie, completely different mindset here. There is not one parent that would not like this. In America and maybe where you come from is different. Very different culture here.

I'm surprised Costa Rica isn't on that list. I remember seeing all the coffee plantations when I visited there.

Genie, does Costa Rica still grow a lot of coffee?

Si, still one of the main products here, QL.
