My honest thoughts on where she went wrong was. 1 she didn't answer questions showing that she have full knowledge of what the problems were and what her solution would be. 2 she seemed to fear questions from the public and relied on her go to answer of coming from a middle class family. 3 she didn't give enough hard-hitting interviews to sharpen herself when asked tough questions. 4 she depended too much on celebrities. 5 she relied too heavily on the race card to the point that minorities pulled away. 6 she used her sex and race as a weapon and used it to attack more than attract. 7 when giving a chance to sell the public on her, all she did was talk about Trump when everybody already made up their minds about Trump. 8 she didn't project strength when giving an opportunity to send a message to world leaders. 9 she picked the wrong running mate. 10 she depended too much on teleprompters.

I predict the first thing that President Trump will do will pardon the innocent people wrapped up in the January 6th circus who are still in prison.

Oh also add that I tried to cultivate a friendship with a guy I met from fatal model. It started out okay but I made the mistake on my second visits giving him a cell phone that I replaced with a newer model. That shifted the dynamic of our friendship to the point that he became needy and always dropped hints of things he needed or wanted. I ended the friendship and now even after 2 years he is still message me on every single app available to try to reestablish our friendship.

I don't speak any Portuguese. Most of the guys who have become my friends I have met through Romeo or grinder. Yes we have had sex but it turned into something more then a sexual relationship. If I feel a vibe with them and I think they are feeling a vibe with me I just tried to see them again and again and see if it turns into a friendship. But if money is involved with each time then it's not much of a friendship. In Sao Paulo I have become friends with a guy I met from Viva Loca. If he takes off work and spends the whole day with me I compensate him. We also talked throughout the year. I'm very picky with my friendships so they don't come easy

I've been in Brazil 2 weeks and I've only had one sauna encounter. But I've had many grinder encounters. If you want to see a lot of slim muscled guys flashing big erections then you want to go to point 202. Club 117, if you want to see a lot of familiar faces then that is the place to go.

Little update, I went to back to Point 202 Wednesday. It was pretty crowded since rooms were free. I asked one of the guys how much their program was and he quoted 250. I smiled and turned my head and he countered with 200 I smiled and said no and moved on. I half hour later he came back and said he can lower the price. By that time I already booked someone from Grindr for my room. No regrets.

I figured I would share my experience and visiting club 117 and Point202. At point202 The lowest price I was quoted for fun was 100 BRL for sucking plus milk and 150 for penetration plus milk. At club 117 the lowest price I was quoted was 150 for everything. Later in the evening they came back in lower the price to 100. Also those were prices quoted to me from the guys without me asking.

I was able to get my CPF number in Sao Paulo very quickly. I went to the Federal building and applied on a Friday when I landed. I got the CPF number in my email on Tuesday. It was a big help to have someone go with me to interpret and all I needed was my passport and to fill out the application.

When did they start making the 200 note? After making an ATM withdrawal it kind of was a letdown to get such big notes

This question is moot. They've changed the second floor hot tub area into a sitting area. The hot tub is gone and now just chairs and end tables are in that section...

It's been a few years since I have been in Thailand, but I can share this much. I have never tried to get a fetish massage in a shop but I have had guys from Romeo and Grindr match my fetish when performing massage. Before we met, I tried to have a conversation with them and share my fetish fantasies and 9 times out of 10, they met the challenge.

Back in the late 70's, NYC was beginning to resent the Japanese. People were complaining that they got all the attention in the big name stores spending big money on everything from Cameras to Jeans. But when you think about it, if any nationality of people think their money talks and can take the place of good manners or common courtesy, there will always be those who get a little burned every time they see it or hear about it. And we all know that birds of a feather will flock together and their chirps will become louder over time their chirps will become louder.

I'm headed to Brazil next month and will be spending a lot of time with the friends I made in Rio and Sao Paulo. They've been encouraging me, in a friendly and educational way, to avoid seeking out Garoto's and instead focus on meeting guys through them and at various social events we'll attend. However, I plan to visit a sauna on the days I have free to explore on my own. Based on my past experiences in the Sauna, I am sure to meet someone there that I connect with, and if the situation feels right and the price is reasonable, I'd be open to it. But if I don't feel a genuine connection, no matter the cost, I wouldn't be interested. Besides, I don't think about the ones that got away. I also want to add that I think we all tend to judge guys based on our initial impressions and estimated price range. As we talk and get to know them better, that initial extimate can change, similar to how our perceptions can shift when chatting with guys online. Personally, I know quickly if I'm interested in someone based on just a couple pictures. If either of us require more pictures... Well that borders on persuasion, it feels more like a sales pitch and probably neither of us is as interested in the connecton as much we pretend to be. So when it comes to Garoto's. If it was to be, it will be. If you can't connect because of $$, then move to the next guy. If they were worth crying over, then they are worth paying extra for. That is my opinion anyway....

I think some of you are like me, when you are interested in a place you want to know what is going on and read what other travelers want to share. I don't know if this board has any rules against sharing a link from another forum with similar topics as this one but if it is allowed, I would like to share https://www.companyofmen.org/forum/84-the-americas/ They don't seem to be as active as this forum gets at times but they seem to have interesting conversations and good topics.

How did you get your CPF on-line? I tried and was told they can only be obtained by going to a consulate.

I have google fi here in the USA and I use that plan when I am in Brazil and use data freely and I can use my phone as a hotspot. I was even able to use data while on the subway but I did run into dead spots. Click the link below for more on Google Fi.

Gay Brazilians targeted in deadly stickups, lured by dating apps Dani Morera Trettin Mon, August 26, 2024 at 6:04 a.m. EDT·5 min read 1 / 3 Gay Brazilians targeted in deadly stickups, lured by dating apps Gay Brazilians targeted in deadly stickups, lured by dating apps in Sao Paulo By Dani Morera Trettin CAMBUQUIRA, Brazil (Reuters) - It was June 12, Lover's Day in Brazil. Leo Nunes, 24, had spent a few days talking to someone he met on Hornet, a popular gay dating app, before arranging their first encounter in Sao Paulo's middle-class Sacoma neighborhood. A security camera captured the moment that two men on a motorcycle showed up in the alley where he was waiting, grabbed his phone and shot him dead. The Nunes family, who shared details of the investigation with Reuters, said one suspect had been arrested. Sao Paulo police said they are investigating the shooting as a robbery resulting in a homicide, but did not provide further information or confirm if there had been an arrest. Nunes was one of at least five gay men killed since March 2024 after planning encounters through dating apps in Brazil, according to news reports. Dozens more victims have described on social media suffering armed robberies after being lured by fake profiles on gay dating apps. Police have also warned of "love cons" involving straight men lured into kidnappings, without providing figures. The string of murders and assaults has shaken the gay community in Brazil, which is large and vibrant but still often wary of law enforcement. This reluctance makes it a target for criminals, according to three people who said they had been attacked, as well as LGBT advocates. "Because of structural homophobia, criminals know that LGBT people are vulnerable. They know they will be more easily intimidated," said Wanderley Montanholi, a lawyer for the family of Heleno Veggi Dumba, a gay doctor who was found dead in April in Sao Paulo after being shot in the head. Montanholi said Dumba was killed by criminals in an attempted robbery after they had lured him into an ambush through a dating app. Sao Paulo police said they had arrested three suspects in Dumba's death who remain in police custody awaiting trial. They declined to give more details. Montanholi said the crimes repeated a pattern in which criminals target gay men through dating apps and groom them for days with fake profiles across different social media platforms.

I just saw a photo of a Garoto taken in Point 202 sauna. He was sitting next to the hot tub on the 2nd floor. As always, it was empty of water. Has anyone ever been to Point 202 and seen the Jacuzzi Hot Tub in use?

Message board fights. 😴

Lucky you! I have to wait till the middle of October before I arrive.

Edit

What is going on in Brazail causing the value of the Real to fall like this? Any speculation on how low it could go and for how long?
