Girls Just Wanna Have Fun
This is not a tour but an adventure I want to share. We're going to Walking Street! If Pattaya, Thailand has walking street and so my beloved country, the Philippines has too! Walking Street is a stretch with clubs, bars, hotels, restaurants and different shops and many more located in Angeles City. This is not a plan but because I and my friend have this impulsive nature we just pack and go. This idea started when our Thailand trip was cancelled because her leave of absence wasn't approve. We supposedly going to meet in Thailand. Her from the Philippines and us from the UK with my family. We're about to explore the nightlife in Pattaya and go to walking street. But it didn't happen and so upon checking we have the same thing here in the Philippines and it was good to know. So when we go home last year we come up to this snap adventure. We work at the same company for more than 6 years before I resigned. I don't have many friends they are the only ones I have as my family will always be a friend of mine.
We all share the same passion. Food. We all love to eat especially in buffet restaurants lol. Why? Because we can eat and eat till we get full. Every payday we have this "treat yourself day" and so we go out and try different restaurants especially those we've never tried before. The two were not able to go with us so we just carry on! For us, this is an adventure as we never go to bars and get drunk. Although we have to buy drinks to stay. We usually go to karaoke bars and sing instead! Let's go Walking Street! No. We have to eat first lol
That's just the first round. Don't be fooled. π€ͺ
This is my equally silly friend "Euri". β€ So we booked and pay for a hotel for a night. And sadly it wasn't what we expect for the price but will do. We're not hard to please anyway. But if ever you're going in here in Walking Street, I advise you not to book online, just come here and look around for yourself for there are many hotels in the area. Far better than we book to think we paid the most expensive one thinking it will be good. But no. Welcome to Walking Street
From Manila, we ride a bus and took us 2-3 hours to get here. You'll know when you're there when you see that arc. Still daylight so we had a walk just to see what it looks like.
Almost all the bars have the same names the same in Pattaya. There's a crowd of people in here! After this walk, we grab a smoothie in this instagramable shop. My Tia would love to be in here.
So we went back to the hotel and change for the night. We're twinning. It's getting dark outside.
The street is alive! I'm feeling the Pattaya vibe. Euri is happy and excited that we can have fun together. You know we always want to go to clubs and dance or watch people dancing having fun. We want to see what clubs looks like, you know nightlife! For some, this is a man's place. But tonight we are making it like for normal girls like us too. So we went inside this club (taking picture is not allowed) and there are girls wearing camouflage dancing on the stage and it's really good. It's not even a sexy dance lol. We order a drink and sit. And whenever we get the drink there's an old woman approach us and ask if we have foreigner with us. And though we don't understand the reason for asking such, we say no. And we're told we're not allowed to get inside without foreigner/escort. And we're like really?! We told her, we have money and can pay for our drink. We just want to watch sit and enjoy. But no. Because if the police check the place and see us they will need to pay fine. And only girls who works there or who got foreigners with them are allowed. And I was like, they wait for us to buy a drink before telling us that we're not allowed to stay? So out we go. So disappointed as we are enjoying the show. Then we didn't know that all bars have the same policy. We sit on the pavement like two broken-hearted ones, looks pitiful lol. So we end up just eating again.
I think the whole night we keep eating because we can't get in the bars and so there's one bar called High Society that opens for everyone. Of course we have to pay the entrance. Can'remember how much. Haha, finally we can go dancing, drinking (more water than cider) and have fun!
Hahaha, we're already enjoying watching people get crazy on the dance floor. The music was uplifting and was happy and satisfied. We go home the next morning with a smile on our face. Whenever we go back to the Philippines with my husband, we will surely come here again. We got my passport to get in then.
***How I love my Euri!*** ***How about you? Do you like going out with your friends and have fun?*** Thank you for being with me! Please comment your answer below!

These cakes from the picture look very tempting ... yum, yum ...
Haha.. This is more on food trip your than actually going to bars lol. Thank you my love!
Oh no! π Now I have the song "Girls just wanna have fun" stuck in my head, because of the title of your article. π¬π π PS: Very nice article, as always. π
And I can imagine my dear MoreGainStrategies dancing banging his head on tune. π

Wow! Sarap ng buhay oy π ganda naman experiences mo pero mas maganda yang si Euri. Ano FB nya? π
I thought you're a girl π€£
Lalaki ako oy π
I have just finished reading the rest of the article and I cannot comprehend that all bars had the policy that native women were not allowed unless you work there or had a foreigner with you... π¬π Maybe they thought that a foreigner could be interested in getting to know you two instead of one of the girls who work there? π€
Yes, it shocked me and maybe yes, they need to be the one to make money. Come to think of it, if outside girls can come freely their girls are not going to make money. Have you've been to Thailand?
No, I have not. I'm not the traveling guy, but maybe that will change one day. Who knows. π
I say so!π
Female entertainment can be a fantastic thing. You enchant all places with your pictures. All these dishes in the pictures are unknown to me. It seems to me that you have dominant seafood, which is not the case here in Serbia.
Dear, I'm a seafood person and I can speak for the majority of Filipinos love seafood as well. Now I'm curious about your food, we Filipinos love our rice, British loves their spuds/ mashed potatoes so Serbia loves???
Here the list is quite long. We have a lot of dishes, but I think meat is what dominates everything. I can sometimes joke that of all the salads, I like meat the most. I will see these days to write an article about some Serbian dishes. Considering what I learned about you from your articles, I believe that you would enjoy it in Serbia. Here we have beautiful things to see, good fun and delicious food.
We love meat as well. I would love to see that article! So for now I'm not going to google it. I will wait for your post instead. And more pictures please! I'm getting excited about food.
You have written well. i think many girls like to hang out with fun. I always think this is a unique and good thing about your article. You share the fun that you have with yourself. Seeing you happily in the colors of the world, people at home will also shine with joy. Especially people who see you happy and feel happy too
Thank you my friend. You know I'm always happy when I'm not hungry. And thank you for not judging girls having fun :)
It seemed to me that you like seafood as well as walking around. But the good thing about you is that you are still smart and Beautiful. As I have seen you in the pictures. And this is the voice of my heart. for my friend
I love almost everything but seafood is the best among the rest!
It's a lot of fun spending time with the girls, although I have more male friends than female friends.
My best friend is male but he's in another country too but definitely male or female it's a lot of fun being with them!
You're right, spending time with friends is the best!
Lucky you guys can roam around.. But i like the title, girls just wanna have fun. I wanna have fun with my friends too..maybe when i get home
Yes, you should! That was last year, no covid yet. Lucky I have friends that I can have fun with. Please do enjoy when you get home!
I hope i can travel like you too.. Need more cash π
Walking on the street and having some street food is the most favorite thing of mine. I like to walk with my favorite one. You and your friends looks so pretty in one frame. It's a matter of luck to find best friend in same work place. So you are have a great time. God bless everyone
Thank you Fiona. I'm really lucky to have friends at work. I hope you go and have fun with your favourite one! When everything is all good hopefully. Thank you again and God bless you more sweetheart. π
You are welcome
I can't help but crave for that sandwich and sisig π₯Ίππ€€
Me too when I upload that photo! π
You are looking so cute and smiling. I'm thinking about those girl whose can't get out of theirs room. This world is beautiful all we need to is "Explore". Thank you so much for sharing such a loveable article of you
I am happy seeing you enjoying your friend's company the foods are delicious, I am craving for it. I hope someday I can travel the world too like you do.
Thank you that's very nice of you. And yeah to that! Save and travel! We keep saving money to travel :)
Yes dear I will save money for that, soon ..
Yes! I do love hanging out with friends sometimes.. Only this pandemic changes everything! I miss this!
I'm sure you missed this! Hopefully after this pandemic we can go about and have fun!
Yeah! I will surely do that, I can't wait! lol! Thanks for the tip on my comment :)
i had no idea girls needed to be escorted into most of those bars...i always learn something interesting. nice post!
They're your ticket to get in. Not fair. It's sad when they think only foreigners have the money. Well I don't have money but my friend does π We travelled far to get in clubs/bars to watch the show and got chased lol
sorry to hear that, but it's a great story! and thx for the tip!
Lots of fun... to be honest, Iβm jealous of you right now π π π
Hahaha but with this pandemic and social distancing rules no more fun. Even bars are closed. Just wait after this pandemic, you got a lot of savings now lol Go out and have fun very soon!
as i can see its be a lot of fun and nice food too, cheers :)
That short words of yours mean a lot. Thank you, my dear. Cheers!
Oh, how I miss to bond with my girls. Antagal ko nang nkakulong sa bahay. π Since 2016 pa, nung nagkaanak nalayo nako sa city, kaya di na nakakalabas kasama mga friends ko. I hope soon, makasama ko ulit sila at mag enjoy kahit sandali lang. πβ€οΈβ€οΈ
Yes go go go! Not because you have a child doesn't mean you can't go out and have fun. :)
You look like you had a real blast in pattaya. I go our and go to an all you can eat with my best friend a lot since we live together and all
That's in the Philippines although Pattaya is so much better xxx
In pattaya you went bar hopping, right? I want to experience that too but I'm still underaged for drinking
