Title:

a thai ladyboy karaoke bar hostess
Caption: [UNVERIFIED CONTENT] With the tourist industry boom in Thailand in the past two decades, tens of thousands of young workers from the rural areas, including young women, men and children, are relocating to busy tourist centers, seeking for better jobs. Jessy as she(he) calls herself, is a 17 year old karaoke hostess. The bar she works in looks like it has not been renovated since the early 80's, and all customers there would be elderly local thai men. She comes from Isaan province, a poor rural country side region of Thailand, and she has been living in Phuket for some time now. Her job is to serve and sell drinks, but also to sing, dance and flirt with customers.
