I spent 5 weeks in Cuba and 3 of them in Havana last year. I flew to Mexico City, bought a cash ticket, converted my US bills (at my bank before I left) and was on my way! Cuba is a love/hate country. There is so much potential for it to be the premier destination for the region but policies in both Cuba and the US prevent that from happening. As for guys, woooof. I've been to all 7 continents and 34 countries and no place has quite a supply of amazing looking guys as Cuba does. But, I am partial to that look. There are a few gay bars popping up in Havana now and the street scene is really active in a few locations. You do need to exercise caution though. Twice I was walking back from the bar at night and my date was stopped by security or the police and asked to see ID. Also, walking by the cruising areas I passed a glance at a couple of guys but I wasnt really interested. They followed me for a couple of blocks while I was walking home for the night and begging for a night in bed with me, and a plain clothes policeman noticed and arrested them. Planetromeo is a great option, but be aware that internet service is very expensive if you don't have access to it at your job or university. It was about $5/5CUC per hour at the two government run internet cafes. In a country that averages $30 a month in wages, internet is truly a luxury. In old town there is parque central. It is near the Capitol Building. I noticed several working boys sitting around on the benches waiting for a conversation. Also, across the street in front of the Hotel Inglaterra there is a tourist bus that can take you to Micayito Beach. Its a gay beach with LOTS of activity. Be careful of the police though. Needless to say, I was impressed by the lack of swimwear and abundance of tighy whities used for swimming trunks. The boys know what they are doing for sure when they get wet Food is an issue and unfortunately Cuba ranks as the worst place I've ever been when it comes to options and quality. Accommodations are really interesting. http://www.cuba-junky.com/, a great website to find Casa Paticulars, was where I found most of my lodging. Casas averaged $25-$30 a night. Sometimes breakfast is included, sometimes not. Be aware you are staying in people's actual homes a lot of the time. There are options that are more private though. I much preferred to stay in Vedado instead of the slightly cheaper and dirtier Centro and the overpriced and too touristy Old Havana. Vedado is where most of the cruising and gay life happens. Near Calle 23 and the Malecon, there is a bar called Humbolt 52. It is the first and I think only fully gay bar in town. I love Havana for its grittiness, yet relative safety. The scene is very young, and feels of a different age. As an American, it is very nerve wracking to carry around thousands of dollars due to lack of access to our banking system. You wait in lines EVERYWHERE it seems and the bureaucracy is apparent everywhere. If you would like to have an amazing gay tour guide, I highly recommend Luis. http://www.gaycubatourguide.com/about-me/ He is a professional and not an escort by any means. Don't use him to find boys, but his services in getting acquainted with the city, finding a gay friendly casa, and general friendship are amazing. I miss Cuba. It certainly has made an impression on me in many ways. As a tourist, it can feel that you are a walking ATM sometimes. Poor countries have this affliction and Cuba is no exception. Touts are everywhere in Old Town. I spent about $50 a day staying in decent Casas, eating at the more pricey and tastier privately owned restaurants and buying a couple of drinks at the bar. Sometimes that bumped up to $80 depending on the date for the night. The country is changing in some ways very fast, and in others, painfully slow. Give it a try.

Make sure you have enuf CUCs for some of this Cuban COCK

If you answered the title of a new gay themed series from Channel 4, the English broadcaster that aired Queer As Folk, you probably don't need to read this link. The show's creator stated he got the idea for the tiitle from a scientific study on erections. "It divided the hard-on into four categories, from soft to hard. One, tofu. Two, peeled banana. Three, banana. And four, cucumber. Right there and then, I knew I had my drama." Plot summary: Henry Best, a 46 year old in the middle of a relationship breakup, has the hots for a much younger man and winds up house sharing with a bunch of Gay twenty-somethings. Says Henry, "We all live together in a big gay house, being gay." Reported Dick-o-meter reading: "so risqué that it "wouldn't get past an American network"." and "In a drama looking at the details of people's sex lives,..., of course you are required to bust taboos or ask probing questions. There's no doubt people will find it challenging but it's asking intelligent questions in an original way," Writing, acting, directing etc.: "amazingly warm, incredibly funny and beautifully written" Sample cast shot:

Just back from a weekend in Prague. Great time! Visited Temple on Thursday and Friday night. It seemed very quiet on Thursday night, but it was the week after pride, so we didn't stay long. Busier on Friday night. Couple of cute guys. Although some seemed pre-booked by customers who didn't arrive until later in the night? Saturday in Escape. Great time. Cute new boys and shows all night.

Damn that makes the idea of breaking the law to go there look so worth it!

He is a really cute, nice and amazing boy who enjoys the sex. He is 100% gay and let you feel it.

CJ a new cute boy in Escape coming from ... California !

I never liked the song, but with the addition of some male eye-candy, it was tolerable. Yes, the boy is blessed with a Great ASS, but I could help but notice his lips looked a bit "funky".... that's OK, ill just eat his ass and NOT kiss him..

There is a bit of info on Belo Horizonte here. http://www.boytoy.com/forums/index.php?/topic/13318-totally-oz-visits-brazil-for-the-month-of-march/ When I was there, I did spent a great deal of time sick and did not get to visit as much as I wanted to but I made friends with several guys that I have kept in touch with on facebook and they are beautiful and their friends are beautiful and the boys on the beach are beautiful. I loved the city!

Tomcal, as always an amazing selection. Great info and great boys.
