Ha, ha, there was a doctor on TV saying there would be some people in Canada still alive who received the full course of smallpox vaccination when they were kids and may be protected from monkey pox. Actually anybody over 60, maybe younger, received the full course, I don't know exactly when it stopped.

I've been to Belo twice, once for one of the World Cup games. It's laid back and feels safer than some of the other bigger cities, but I have no proof for that. I had good times at a couple of the saunas, one was pretty scuzzy and there were some genuine thugs, but they didn't seem dangerous in that context. It was the only time in my life I truly felt like somebody's bitch. I can't remember the name of the other one I went to, but it had a pleasant bar in the basement with some shows and lots of good looking guys. There was a third one I went to that was very modern looking and clean and and expensive and had a few muscular male model types, but no fun at all.

I'll be interested in hearing about Cali if you decide to make a report. I've so many hot guys online from Cali. But it's on the, you should definitely not go there, list issued by the Canadian government, although they seem to apply that to many places in the world... classic butt covering maybe.

Absolutely, a cop in the small Canadian city where I live told me it could get by with two police officers (instead of 30) if it wasn't for alcohol. This is the case in many smaller communities in Canada where almost all of the police activity is related to alcohol. The question now is whether legal pot will replace alcohol over time and will crime and police calls go down.

I saw in a Brazilian and a Colombian escort site that the guys include which debit/credit cards they accept. Is it a given that they take cash, or is it cards only.

There are many amateur/non amateur brazilian porn sites on www.xvideo now, most of the guys won't be as pretty or muscular as regular porn sites, but you might get a better idea of what would be like to spend some time with. The other issue is identity. There won't necessarily be an obvious way to get their name or stage name if they have one or contact info.

You're quite right, but the airlines/airports see an opportunity to pressure the government to ditch the rest of the mandates/covid rules, plus escape public anger. And in terms of the mandates, etc, they're not doing much good anymore. People are packing into sports venues, bars, etc and not wearing masks, so it's hard to see what the point of the air travel covid rules are and they do inconvenience travellers.

We have a lot of problems with air travel in Canada right now, short staff, delayed flights, long lineups, at least in Toronto, which is all that matters for the national media. The airlines are blaming it on the vaccine mandates which are still in force in on domestic and international flights. I think a lack of baggage handlers is a bigger problem since it affects connecting flights, but the airlines want to shift the blame onto the government.

I realized the last time I was at Aquarius in Istanbul the guys share quite a bit about the clients among themselves. Not in a bad way from what I saw... but a guy who hadn't been there the day before knew who I had been with the day before. And the one classically handsome muscled guy I was with clearly knew what I had the paid the others and was offended I paid him the same. Actually the opposite was more the truth. I prefer the regular looking guys.. they're usually more fun too.

That's fine, but I think they should say if it's because they want to decide if you're attractive enough. That's fine too, it's how the customer picks them. But I'd like to know if that's what it's for.

This glass shower in the room has become a thing I think. I first saw it in a room in a new hotel in Vienna, with a full view, and was glad I wasn't sharing a room with my mother or sister. A couple of years later I noticed they had frosted the lower part... customer complaints no doubt. Same type shower in a nice hotel in Spain. As an aside I think western Europeans are much more comfortable about separating nudity from sex. Body type doesn't seem so important there either.

Canada was working on a deal before the vaccine was ready to buy the Chinese vaccine, but then the rulers got mad at the Canadian government for something, there's always something, and walked away from the negotiations..... thank goodness.

Hi, I'm hoping you can help me out with something I've wondered about for years. It's about a trip I took in Vietnam. It included a motorcycle tour I took out of Dalat into the rural central part of the country. I was riding with a Vietnamese guide. We stopped at pullover on a back country road, there were two couples also on motorbikes parked there. The guide and the couples chatted, partly about me I think., Then one of the men walked over and held out his hand, when I responded he grabbed my hand, and with his other hand lightly rubbed my forearm back and forth and then walked back to his friends. I think I asked the guide what that was about, but he didn't answer. Would it have been to feel the hair that was on my arm, it is hairy. It was a wonderful trip. I saw so many foods that we buy in Canada, but never see growing.. ie rice, coffee, black pepper, cashew nuts and others. The local people were great.

I don't ever ask the guys about their work, but a few have mentioned that some of their customers are horrible and make ridiculous demands. They don't understand it and I don't either. When a beautiful young man lets me have a wonderful experience, I'm so grateful because it sure wasn't wonderful for him.

The Canadian media has reported a mechanic discovered the drugs. That sounds like a local hire, so I don't see how that exonerates the crew as the pilots association is claiming. It was a small private charter and so warning travellers to stay away from the DR seems to be overblown since it wouldn't apply to the vast majority of tourists and airline crews. And it's not just a DR thing. Two Canadian men couldn't leave Cuba for seven months a few years ago after being accused of sexual assault by another Canadian and were eventually acquitted. It's one of the risks, albeit small, of travelling.

Wise words. Two people can have entirely different experiences with the same guy because of differing personalities, expectations and differences in what turns a person on. On the other hand I am really, really grateful for all of the information about places to find or meet guys at travel destinations, what to expect, places to use caution and so forth. I realized later in life that I had been to places where I could have had a much better time if I had known what was available.

I had no idea she is the same actor as the lead in Happy Valley. I think she's making another season of that excellent program. I like it when I don't recognize an actor from a different program or movie. There are some who don't make much of an effort to become a different character than themselves.

I'm sorry.

My feeling is that generally, people are entitled to charge what customers are willing to pay. Obviously there are distortions when there's only one seller, but that doesn't seem to be the case in Santo Domingo. I'm certainly not well off, but for me $100 for time with a beautiful man is not unreasonable.

Thank you. What a beautiful write-up, and it sounds like a wonderful time. It brought back memories for me, a young Colombian standing up in the stands at a World Cup game in Brazil to sing a folk song and all the Colombians in that part of the stadium going silent to listen to him. And climbing a Mayan pyramid in Palenque and then unable to take the first step back down because of vertigo. ( I had to sit down and then shift my bum down step by step). I have to go to Colombia within a year or two because soon age and health will prevent me from ever going.

And then there's Israel, on the friendly list, when it should understand more than most what it's like to be in Ukraine's position, plus the billions in American military aid every year, plus the American veto at the United Nations that's consistently used to protect Israel from UN resolutions.

Since I've never made the rounds of bars in SDQ I wouldn't have any knowledge about the privacy in hustler bars there so I don't know where you get the naive comment from... and anyway why are you being so nasty, it was just a question. Personal digs like this are why people avoid these types of sites.

Hi, thanks for the report on Marlowe's. If I can ask, is the back room literally one room, or is there a place for some privacy.

For the younger people, in the early 80s everything to do with South Africa became toxic because of apartheid. Over time it became wearing on white South Africans to experience being shunned. It was of course the determination of black South Africans who were responsible for the end of apartheid, but the international sanctions helped create the sense among the whites that the end was inevitable. I hope the pressure can be maintained against Russia, if Putin is not stopped now, we'll soon be in the same situation with the Baltic countries.

I don't if this is too far off topic, but are there still hotels in Bangkok where you can bring a guest?
