Newbie headed to Macau, could use some friendly help
So, I have been reading alot on these forums the past week in preparation of vacationing in macau In January. After that I will head out to Bangkok (Which I've been to before and am comfortable with). I can't help but feel overwhelmed with all the information and I am still not fully understanding of everything so I have some questions if anyone can help me out. Sorry for being a newb at this but once I make it over there, I will definitely post reports of each chick. I've never been to china in my life, and the only time I've been out of the country was to Bangkok, and that was with someone who was from there so that person pretty much was able to show me the ropes. When I head to macau, I will be alone with no guidance, which is why I am asking these stupid questions, so please bear with me.
Questions:
1. So it seems like the saunas to visit are Darling 1, 18, Emperor and East? I plan on going for either 5days - 7 so I want to experience as much as I can (have a good bit of spending money too)
2. Hotels are confusing me, I read alot of good hotel recommendations but they seem to not be in the Macau area? and in order to get to the macau area I have to commute? I was wondering what are some actual good hotels in the Macau area that are at least 3 stars but only $100usd or less. (in fact, what's the Cheapest place to stay that isn't a shithole)
3. People have stated you can Sleep at the saunas so you don't have to get a hotel? but then what about all your stuff? (laptop, clothes, luggage, etc)
4. When I go into the sauna and strip and leave everything, what about my wallet, phone, and contents? How do I know all that stuff is safe?
5. I will be taking my unlocked Iphone 5, so when I go there, I plan on just using a cell service over there, is it easy to get a simcard and service over there quickly?
6. where do I convert my USD dollars at? I know in bangkok, apparently you didn't wanna do it at certain places cause they would rip u off?
7. should I just bring cash/use cash, or is using Credit card ok? (like for hotel purchases, food purchases, etc)
8. When taking taxis, is writing the address down in english and showing the taxi cab going to work? I know that use to work in Bangkok sometimes.
9. I don't quite fully understand http://mo.nightlife141.com/en/ is this like backpages or something but for Hong kong,etc? And also....what is LA buddies? what does LA mean? WHat is Beauty Call? and Xo? like what are the differences?
thanks for any help, and I know some of these questions might seem dumb, but the answers would be very very helpful.
