I'm looking for a private accomodation in Agadir. Maybe experienced travellers can give me a hint? Studio, apartment. As long as it's private. Good tips very welcome. Thanks

Hey forrestreid and ShivRoy, thanks for the support and ideas. I did already some reading on the internet. Following your advice I will stay in Torremolinos as it seems to be the gay-hub of the region. I could book two nights in the Ritual Hotel (it was full!) in Nogalera area Interesting to know that escort cruising was (or is) also available, although Grindr might lead to some nice encounters too. I had a quick look on Hunqz too...but still I like to do some outside cruising and see what kind of guys are my type. I also read about some "hot" bars (darkrooms?) like Men's bar, Attack bar, Alcatraz and even a gay sauna...so plenty to discover I guess. There seems to be a gay (naked?) beach to near the airport of Malaga. Thanks for your reply on this subject!

I'm heading to the costa del sol in a few months, explore the area between Marbella and Malaga. Good experiences are welcome here! Thanks for useful tips.

Thanks also for sharing the information about the shop. If some people know other weblinks of thai massage video (shops), please let us know. Its exciting and interesting!

Taipei is great city and people are so friendly. I visited some years ago, but I did not have special contacts, perhaps I'm a bit too shy to make contact. Still the most amazing sauna that I visited was soi13 in Taipei. I guess there were more than 100 completely naked asian young guys in the sauna. I remember also the darkest and bigggest darkroom: filled with naked bodies with hard cocks, guys cumming and moaning. I was like a kid in a candy shop! Unforgettable.

Very curious to read more about the experiences of 12is12 in Santo Domingo. I have about the same preferences as him....cuddling, kissing, body contact.... The safety issue keeps me worried in that country. Certainly when I compare with my South Asia experiences. Waiting...

When I visit Berlin there will be a Revolver Party in January in Kitkat club. Did anyone visit and give me some comments? Thanks!

Thanks for advice! Much appreciated.

I read some different comments about this subject. It makes that I have not made a decision because it's still difficult to evaluate the safety condition of an independent traveller. So experienced travellers, please tell me about the safety situation in the Colombian cities. Thanks so much. I'm used to travel in the Far East (Thailand, Laos, Myanmar, Vietnam...) where safety is really not an issue.

In Morocco there is no doubt: strictly forbidden. In Morocco it is even by law forbidden for a moroccan to enter hotelrooms. You will not pass the reception with a guest. And even if you rent a flat sometimes the "gardiens" of the building forbid your guest to enter. You can always try your luck if there is no guard but then beware of "nosy" neighbours. Tunisia, Algeria, Egypt have about the same hotel policy. Years ago in Egypt it was easy if you took a room in a 5-star hotel with a very busy lobby. Although I was sometimes suprised that there was another "guard" on every floor to check who entered the rooms and now they put up some cameras. When I was with a Tunesian friend in desert oasis he was just 5 minutes in my room for a drink and there was a knock on the door and he had to leave! But in another little hotel in Tunisia there was also a knock on my door at night, and there was a cute bell boy with a fresh bottle of water. It was obvious that here was horny like hell when saw me standing there half naked. Those are the "little adventures" that seem to happen in many Arab countries, often with hotel staff (always horny and bored). Especially in Egypt you come across these guys: camel drivers in the desert, tempel guards, museum guards, horse drivers, shopkeepers... In Jordan many men gave the special "hidden" handshake, they tickled the palm of your hand with their middle finger...meaning "I like you so let's have some fun if possible" and hotel policy was more loose compared to the Maghreb. In Bahrain and the Emirates nobody at the reception cares about visitors in your room....you could take a goat up to the room without having a problem :-)). Same goes for Oman and Yemen. No problems with a visitor.

Hey alvnv, thanks a lot for the tip!

Looking at my former message here...it seems to be a difficult subject, many readers but no comments. Still if somebody had good experiences renting a nice flat or riad for some days in Marrakesh (with or without guard/gardien) please send some more info here or in a personal message.

You don't seem to know much about Morocco and the guys overthere. Moroccans are macho's and don't want to be "gay" (even if they are). Their masculin ego comes always first, therefore asking for money is a sort of valid "excuse" for gay-for-pay behaviour. They have no privacy at home and it is strickly forbidden to enter a hotel with a moroccan friend, so forget about going to "his place" or to a hotel. In twenty years I had one exeption when I slept with a friend on the terrace of his home under the stars and we could do naughty things in the sleeping bags. Inside the house the whole family was present. Whatever you do or wherever you go with your friend, discretion is a holy duty! Those days there were quite some tourist harrased by "faux guides" (false guides). To protect tourism and the visitors it was even forbidden for a moroccan man to speak with or disturb a foreigner on the street. So walking with you moroccan friend was sometimes a problem (not for you, but for him!). About age: I was always older then the guys that I met and moroccan guys never had a problem with this. So I had pleasant moments with guys from 18 to 35, I was in my 40's. Years ago I could stay in a house of a French guy where the guests had much liberty and there was even a "gardien", but he knew what was happening inside. You could invite anyone for a drink or to spend the night with you and even serve your friend breakfast in the morning. But that was years ago. I wonder if such "hidden" places still exist in Marrakech or other cities. If someone should know a place like that please send me a personal message. Now and then, but very rare, I had also some fun with the hotel staff, waiters, room-service boys and pool boys.

I had many experiences with moroccan guys. In every moroccan town it is possible to meet a guy and have some fun together. The nice thing about morocco is that meeting a hot guy can be anytime and anyplace and unexpected.

The best you can do is invite a nice moroccan friend in your private apartment, otherwise you can only go to a hammam and behave. I want to go (back) to marrakech in autumn and I am still searching a private flat with no "gardien". Good luck.
