Sounds like you need to find a wealthy, westernised Lao girl.

Laos is a more livable and peaceful country than troubled Thailand, so you will enjoy it if you want to live a simple lifestyle or even a high class life.

People are friendly and helpful towards one another in Laos, we have tremendous pride in being Laotians, we love our culture and seeing so many foreigners migrating to Laos over the years, and many more desperately wanting to migrate is evidence of how far we've come as a country.

if you dont want a lao wife who is x hooker then head to the mountains and hope you come back alive with a nice, clean lao girl.

I've been told many times not to bring a Lao girl to your hotel room alone or to date a Lao girl without her parents or chaperon accompanying her, i think it's a lot different from what i have been told, it seems life goes on like it does in Thailand, i'm learning a lot here in this forum and that's why i log on here, it's a learning curve and i thank everyone for their input, there are no wrong answers here just suggestions from everyone and all suggestions are welcome,  please keep posting i welcome all information, thank you.

Boy from Oz, Not many girls in Laos will feel comfortable if their parents were following them around while they are out on a date. It's embarrassing in anyone's language.

As far as bringing a Lao girl to your hotel room is concerned, it's still illegal in Laos and each room will have their terms and conditions set out. One of them is that they don't allow any guests into your room. Look, at the end of the day the hotel manager will not approach you and say "you can't stay with us because you have a lady in your room." They don't have a problem with it, but the authorities is another matter. The law is there for people to abide by, and it comes down to individual choice. We hope you are enjoying learning new things about Laos.


Longhang, Lao and Hmong people live side by side in around Vientiane and Luang Prabang, but the more remote north of Laos you go, the Hmong population will be more than Lao.
