"There's Probably A Bar For That Somewhere In Bangkok" - with Ben

It's equal parts thrilling and terrifying to uproot your life and plonk it back down in a brand new country and I have such admiration for anyone who does it... 

This week's guest, Ben, did this when he left the US in the 2010s to start life again in Bangkok, Thailand as a language teacher. He ended up spending 9 years there before moving back to the US recently. 

And, in that time, he went through a wonderful learning curve that was backdropped by the city's queer scene. 

He was kind enough to sit down with us and share a few of his stories, which include navigating the dating scene, going googly eyed for one or two strangers, and meeting the love of his life.... 

Do you have any memories of Telephone Bar, or clubbing from your own queer scene that you want to share? Well, if you have please get in touch - I want to create the biggest online record of people's memories and stories - go to www.lostspacespodcast.com and find the section 'Share a Lost Space' and tell me what you got up to! Bonus points for embarrassing photos!
