Thanks Rob. I will see how I make out on Grindr, but some of the guys on skokka look really hot and it would be nice to get a massage too while I'm there. I was looking around yesterday and found a cinema - Cine Central - which sounds really hot. Sounds like it's still active and similar to Cine Lido in Santo Domingo (one of my favorite places on earth). Have you ever been there? Some reviews make it sound like it's a bad neighborhood. But it also sounds like it's active in the afternoon, which is my favorite time to play.

Thanks for your comment. Sicily is on my list at some point. Let's just say, I wasn't going there for the sex, so it wasn't a big deal. I had a great trip and a few adventures. The sauna was far from where I was staying, but it might be worth checking out for those who go.

Hey guys! I've gotten so much useful advice here, this is my attempt to give back a little. This might not be the most useful post, but it's my trip report for what it's worth. I spent a month in Bari, and it was the perfect base for me to explore Puglia and Southern Italy. I had a really nice Airbnb that was about 18 minutes walk from the station, away from the tourists, and in a nice residential area. I tried to meet guys on Grindr. I was willing to pay, but hoping for other options. I really didn't think my prospects were good since I was on the verge of 65 (am now 65) and I've gained about 30 pounds since COVID. But, I was pleased to find that there are people who are looking for someone just like me. Unlike here in the US, where it's rare, there were quite a few guys who were looking for mature, and also fat guys. The problem for me was they were not my type. I discovered this early on when I met up with a guy who said he was a bottom looking for an older top. I told him I didn't think it would work out, but he said he was also a good top. He sent some pics and was cute and had a nice cock. When I met him, I discovered that his face pic was probably about 10 years old, and his dick pic was either enhanced or not his. I'm not a fan of sucking smaller cocks, and he also wanted me to massage his feet but they smelled really bad. I was absolutely regretting going forward with this once we started, but fortunately, I was able to get him to come quickly. He left and blocked me on Grindr (saved me the trouble). I changed my profile saying I was looking for conversation exchange. I figured I'd rather meet people to practice Italian with, who would show me around, than try to find guys to have sex with. I still got a lot of guys hitting me up looking for sex, but my main focus was conversation exchange and if they were hot, I was open to more. I met one nice guy who took me out several times - twice to a restaurant, and once to Matera, in Basilicata, a must-visit place that was too hard for me to do on my own. We had good conversation exchange. But he wanted more. I gave him a BJ once, and that was enough for me. I didn't want to make it seem like I was leading him on, so I stopped contacting him. He definitely was interested, but was just not my type. When I took day trips that put me on the radar of guys outside of Bari, often new guys would hit me up. One guy sent a really hot dick pic, and then his face pic. He seemed married and really horny. He talked dirty to me a lot. I decided to rent an Airbnb for a few days in Barletta, near where he was, to see if we could hook up. Once I was checked in, I let him know I was there, and my phone blew up. He went on forever about all of the things we would do together. The next day we had plans to meet. He asked me if I wanted him to bring a friend. I wasn't thrilled with the idea, but I finally gave in. He was so excited. When he got there, his friend was an older guy, not particularly my type, but hot in an older straight guy kind of way. We all stripped and his friend immediately began playing with my ass. I started sucking both of them. The friend's cock was nice and thick. The other guy was average. I guess the photos he sent were not his. But it was okay. It had really been a long time since I'd been fucked, and they were the perfect size. It didn't take either of them very long to cum. It was weird, rushed, and hot. My final weekend, a guy hit me up early on Sunday. He was very interested in getting sucked off. His photos looked hot. He eventually made his way to my place (after going way out of the way) and I started sucking him. It was sort of hot and then he asked if I minded if he snorted. I should have said I didn't want him to, but I said yes. I then realized he was high when he got there and that's why he never fully got hard. After he did two lines, it was useless. Eventually he figured out I wasn't into it, and left. I added "no drugs" to my profile, for what it was worth. I met one escort who wanted 100 euros, but I eventually lost interest in him. He was Cuban/Italian and had a nice dick, but by that point in my trip, I was becoming suspect of the photos. The only guy I was actually turned on by was a guy from Bari who lived in Milan and was there for the weekend. We met up and talked for a few hours before going out for panzerotti. He had sent me his dick pics and it was magnificent. He was also very handsome. He was totally my type, but nothing happened. I don't know if I should have made the first move, but it was early on in the trip and I hadn't fully absorbed this attraction to guys like me. As I was nearing departure, a really hot guy from Calabria sent me an album. Let's just say he put Calabria on my list of places I'll be going next. So, if you are going to Bari or Puglia, thinking you'll be having a sex-filled vacation, I think you should reconsider. However, it definitely seems possible if you are open to it, especially if you can host. No issues bringing guys into my Airbnb. I also used Planet Romeo, but Grindr was definitely where I was getting hit up. Hope this helps if you're planning on visiting Puglia and are curious about what fun you might have.

If you are going to Vietnam - apply early and check every detail of your visa when you get it. Mine had the wrong expiration date for my passport and they would not let me board the plane. I know it was not my error because the incorrect date was not something I would have written. Fortunately, I was on a Facebook group, I posted about it, and got someone who helped me get a new visa so I could fly the next day (flying business class also meant the airline was willing to reschedule me, otherwise, I'd have been screwed). I heard from many people who had similar things happen to them.

Hey guys, I just did a search and nothing came up, but I'm pretty sure I've seen posts about Panama on this forum. Looks like I'll be going to Panama City at the end of December. I have miles I can use for a hotel and looking at the Intercontinental (views of the ocean and Panama Canal?) but also found one in the city center (whatever that is) that looks nice. Has anyone been? Any recommendations on hotels, places to eat, things to see, and of course meeting men (and taking them back to your hotel). Apologies if this has been covered, and thanks in advance for your helpful hints.

Trump did nothing to stop undocumented immigrants from coming into this country. His wall was a joke and a waste of money. Now he is stopping the Senate from signing onto a bipartisan immigration bill because he wants to hurt Biden. He's very transparent about his actions. He tells people why he's doing it, and in this case, he's doing it to hurt the country and improve his chances of winning so he can pardon himself. His only reason for wanting to be president again is so that he can avoid prosecution for his many crimes. He has 91 charges against him. You'd really support a criminal for president? He did nothing to improve medical care in the US. Obama did, and Trump and his gang tried to repeal Obamacare. They kept saying they had a plan. They never produced a plan. He's a zero on that front. He did nothing to improve working conditions, minimum wage or paid family leave. Biden has. Biden is the most pro-union president we've ever had. He had done more to improve our economy, create jobs and increase wages than any president in my lifetime, in spite of Republican opposition. Trump, on the other hand, ran up the deficit, and downplayed a deadly virus costing hundreds of thousands of lives and tanking our economy. His ego would not let him admit that COVID was serious. As a result, many needlessly died, including many of his cult members who took horse medicine at his recommendation. I'm glad you're not registered to vote here because it seems you're not getting accurate information. I hope this helps enlighten you a little.

Hey, if they're young and hung, open the borders and let them in! Seriously though, you really need to find a new tune. This one is stale and overplayed. How did Trump's wall work out?

I think you misunderstood what I meant. If I want to make a donation, I will, but I don't respond to solicitations. I make donations on my own. But, as I said, since donations seem to result in continual harassment, I've pretty much stopped donating to anyone. Not sure where the mothers' vaginas come in here. Maybe that was not directed at me.

I've had a few instances where this happened. I think I can safely say, nothing extra will happen without a discussion of a tip. I used to go to the Ambassador Hotel for legit massage with extra. Only the very first time I went there, I got extra and there was no mention of a tip (from a beautiful muscle guy). After that, every time I went, I'd get a wonderful oil massage with lots of teasing that got me to the point where I could no longer take it, and he'd then lean over and ask me if I was going to tip him and we'd negotiate the price. It has happened in other "legit" venues as well. A tip was always negotiated before they brought me to my grand finale. I'm going back 20-30 years here. On my last trip, every place I visited told you up front what the minimum tip was.

Don't worry about it. I got roasted when I first joined for not "following the rules" but they were really just the rules of one old troll who thankfully is gone now. I'm very happy to answer questions for newbies.

Based on my limited recent experience in Bangkok - I had three massages - two with "extras", one "legit" (at Prime) - all three places mentioned minimum tip. I went to Senso, Arena and Prime. In each case, I gave more than the minimum tip (I think I doubled it).

I'd still rather have a demented Biden than a demented Trump in power. At least Biden is doing things for the American people. Trump would be a disaster, as he was during COVID.

They must get something from it, or there wouldn't be so many. I get at least one message per day. Some are from a debt collector with a link I'm supposed to click. Others are from people saying they have my number in my phone wanting to know who I am, or inviting me to lunch, or just saying hello. I just block and report at junk. It doesn't seem to help. I've begun also reporting those asking for political donations as junk as well, even though I consider them to be a little more legitimate than the others. I'm with you. If I want to make a donation, I will. If the result of me making a donation will be constant begging for more, then my days of donating are done. I donated to a political campaign in 2016 and I'm still on a list.

Maybe. I actually didn't take a test until 7 days later when I realized I might have COVID. He was coughing during the massage. I wasn't. I guess it's one of the risks of travel and visiting places like this. We're still spreading it.

I never felt an obligation, especially at places like Babylon, but I see your point.
