Please be very careful.I was attacked tonight walking back to the hotel from a dance club in Sao Paulo. The incident left two bleeding cuts on my face and several scratches on my arms. It was supposed to be a 10 minute walk and my Brazilian friend told me that neighborhood was safe (he had to leave early to sleep and get up for work). Some Brazilians will attempt to rub you the minute they realized you are a foreigner. I feel I am lucky to have survived this incident. My guardian must have been watching over me. I spoke to the hotel staff and insisted on reporting to the police. Both did not act like this is a serious crime. I am still shaken now. Please be very caeful.

I would GALDLY miss any AA or UA flights. In fact I would rather wait a whole day at the airport for a flight than stepping on any AA or UA flight. I have my pride and I would like to be treated like I am a customer.

But I bet you will still continue flying AA. They are counting on you "loyal" customers staying with them no matter what.

What do I care. I avoid AA or UA and lately AC at any cost. I don't even care for their elite flyer status.

There is no set price. It all depends on how much the boy thinks he worth, and your negotiation skills. By default, local customers pay less, and the tourists (those who don't speak Portuguese) pay more.

Yes. XE.com shows 1 USD = R4.10 today. But.... This is not what you can get at any ATM, or exchange booth on the street. I got R3.96 today.

I have only been to Rio once, so I am certainly not knowledgeable. I stayed in Copacabana and it was convenient, many stores and restaurans, and hot guys walking around shirtless. I know the gay beach is in Ipenema and I am sure there are hot guys there too (I also know hot guys don't come free.)The few times I walked around in Ipenema, it just seemed like a residential area, less commercial than Copa. I like to know what the advantage is for you to stay in Ipenema.

1. Chinese are very calculating and mean people. Scam is a big part of their culture.2. Prostitution is illegal in China.

To OP, I am curious if you have tried those specific sex acts or other unusual sex acts during your previous visits to saunas? What were the reaction from the boys? I suspect these are only your fantasies.

Many people on this forum stay at apartments through Airbnb or other sites. While Airbnb is quite popular these days, I find it over rated. They show you the nightly rate when you search. Then when you are ready to book, their complete pricequote become much higher, around 15% higher with Airbnbs fee, then there is a seperate cleaning fee. Some hosts even have the fine print that they charge electricity seperately in the fine prints. When you book the room on Airbnb, the charges is all prepaid. When there is a dispute, the renter usually lose because the hosts already have your money, and it's your fight to get it back. Airbnb don't have real time customer service. Everything is through Email. There is noone to talk to. Their disclaimer says they are only provide tge tool to connect hosts and renters, and nit responsible to mediate dispute. I have searched Airbnb, and their apartments are not cheaper than hotels. Although these apartment have kitchens, I don't think I want to spend time shopping and cooking when I can eat out at very reason price in Brazil. Some apartments don't have elevators, some don't have safe box, some don't have doorman, some don't have black out window curtain. The blackout curtain is pretty standard feature among hotels, and is important to me, because I want to be able to sleep during the day if I stay up partying all night. .....on and on. You need to research high and low, and ask the hosts, and many of the hosts can't communicate in English. I am ok with staying at hotels.

I have said this before. But, unless you speak Portugese, there would be a lot of awkward silent moments. After all, you can't have sex every minute you are awake, or maybe you can. LOL.

Fragata closes at 8 pm on weekends...WTF!!Good thing that I Googled before I headed out. I had such a good time at Bubu lounge last night, I didn't get up until 6PM today. LOL. btw, the bathroom at Bubu lounge was fun too. I was pulled by a muscular pardo guy, but his penis is the size of a 3yo boy. I was horrified and I rushed out of the bathroom. LOL On my way to dinner this eve, I saw a big lady singing opra on Avenida Paulista, which is nice. Sao Paulo indeed has some culture. I gave her R5,00.

Lets just blame it on the light. Lagoa is so bright you can count the wrinkles on peoples face. Thist place totally lacks ambience.

I am simply stating they dont speak any English and I thank god I have Google translator. Nothing against them, In fact, I think I should find a way to learn Portugese. I have met some boys at 117 who can speak a little English. As I said previously, Lagoa boys are not in good shape, most of them are just slim or average body, and average looking too. Only very few muscular type. Most boys are not young. I don't know where you get that muscular Lagoa studs from? BTW, 117 boys may show their meats to you when they approach you. At lagoa, many boys even wear boxers under their towls. Nobody was showing their penis, its a very uptight group of boys, in my opinion.

Did you hire a Portugese tutor?

I feel sorry for your boys. ????????????????

I was referring to people wear long sleeves because of the cold summer temperature in SP, not the style. I am sure you love to wear botton down long sleeve shirts and long pants at Ipenema beach posto 9. And you sure can dress up to impress the boys at suana too if you like. ???????????? BTW, I went to Bubu lounge after Lagoa, and had a blast, lots of shirtless eye candies!!! Everybody was happy. ????????????

looks like you had better luck than me or you were just too easy to please. LOL. I was at Logoa tonight from 7 PM till the show ended at arond 11 something. IMHO, although it was packed, but there were more customers than boys. And the boys, lets just say , I think the boys in Rio are in better shape than Sao Paulo. There were probably only 3 boys that I would consider having sex with, the rest I would not touch them even if they pay me. Many of them are definitely way over 30 (and they looked more like customers than boys, lol). It is a depressing scene. And they speak ZERO English. Thank god I have my Google translator. I asked one boy his price with gozar, he wanted R300, then came down to 200 and would not do less. I walkwd away and did not counter his price as I see no point of doing that. I pay 100 or 120 the most in Rio for gozar. BTW, the boy who wanted R300 still stood there without any customer when I walked out the door. BTW, I wanted to order beef steak sandwich, but they were out of beef steak, so I ordered chicken instead. The meat wass hard and dry, just terrible. I arrived in SP on Thursday night, it has been raining and grey. very depressing climate. I cant believe people wear long sleeves or even jackets here in summer. This is my first time in SP, and I have to say I am not impressed.

Do you guys set up a timer to keep track of time? ????

Thanks for the info!! Sex with a cop is always my fantasy. Now I can do it with a REAL cop. ????

At 117 (Rio), you have 40 munites with your boy in the suite, do you have 40 minutes of sex play? For myself, 20 minutes is enough for sex, but what should I do for the rest of time? Due to language barrier, it is not easy to communicate, and the boy, although nice and co-operative, usually just guess and react to your demand or gesture. I am trying to come up with ideas to fill the rest of my time in the suite. Any suggestions? P.S. I just checked Lagoa's website, their suite is for one hour. This is even more difficult. LOL.

I would if my good-lookig nice-body young and horny Brazilian husband is faithful to me. ????

OP was just saying this park is haunted since there is a violent death there.????

Great, lets all go cruising at this park.

Why is he wearing a leather jacket? Is he cold? I thought it's supposed to be nice and warm there.
