TotallyOz Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 I left Fortaleza today and headed to Rio. I met a few Americans on the plane today and they were telling me they were going to 8 cities in Brazil on an air pass that was less than 100 per ticket. They had been to 4 places and were now going to more. They gave me the info and it is here in case others are interested as I paid about 4x what they paid per flight as they booked the special air pass: http://www.voegol.com.br/en-us/agencias/Paginas/airpasses.aspx Rio is one of the cities in the world that is near and dear to my heart. Many years ago, when my friend Hooboy invited me to Brazil, it was Rio and Sao Paulo that we spent time in. He liked Sao Paulo more and I liked Rio more. But, this was the first trip I had even take with my BF about 10 years ago when I decided to leave NYC. Rio has had a special place in my heart ever since and I have been here at least 20 times in the last 10 years. For all but 3 of those trips, I stayed at the Intercontinental Hotel in Sao Conrado Beach. My friends always made fun of me as that hotel is a good ways from all the action and more of a resort than a place for short times. But, I loved it and they treated me well at the hotel. The hotel changed hands over a year ago and they are no longer an Intercon property. As I didn't have status at the new hotel, I decided to stay at the JW Marriott in Copacabana. It is much more convenient to the gay area and it is actually within walking distance of 2 of the saunas. Still, I prefer Meio Mundo Sauna and Club 117 and both are either a subway ride or taxi ride away from this area. But, both are much more to my liking than Point 202. I missed my friend Tomcal in Porto Alegre as I was sick and could not fly down to meet him. We arranged to meet at Meio Mundo. Meio Mundo is THE place to be on Monday's in Rio. My personal favorite sauna, Club 117, is closed on Monday and thus all the clients and boys flock to Meio Mundo. Tonight it was rainy and I thought there would be few boys there. WRONG. There were at least 90 boys there tonight and tons of younger twink looking boys. When I got there, I saw Tom and yelled his name. He didn't hear me as he had a swarm of guys, all over him. For those of you that don't know Tomcal, he is a very frequent traveler to Rio and all the boys know and love him. Well, this is obvious if you sit at a table with him for 5 min as every boy in the place seems to know him and adore him. That is good for me as Brazilian boys always say hi to everyone at the table with a kiss. I got tons of sweet, wet kisses from hot boys I never met before. That was a great start to the evening. LOL I found one guy I really liked who was from Rio and Sao Paulo. He was a sweet, light skinned black kid who is 22 years old, speaks decent English and is moving to Germany next month to work in a sauna there. I thought he was cute but I didn't realize how incredible sexy he was. He has one of the hottest asses I have ever seen. It is a full Brazil bubble butt if I have ever seen one. He also had a nice big dick. But, I was also talking to another 18 year old twin that was cute and I wanted him as well so I took the both. Man, these two were great together. They were really into everything and more sexual than most people I have seen in the saunas. The cute 22 year old loved everything and is obvious he is gay. He said that he lived with 6 other guys for 7 years as a group love nest. They were all BF's together and it sounded like he learned to perfect his skills that way. He also said that his grandfather was from Thailand. Perhaps that is what attracted me to him to begin with. I didn't have my camera but I asked Tom if he would take a photo of him for him. Thanks Tomcal! I had a great time with the boys and at the sauna. Afterwards, Tomcal and I went to eat in near the Hippy Market area in Ipanema Beach. We choose a Tex Mex place and I got to hotel after midnight. I woke up this AM and had breakfast in the VIP lounge for free. I love free food. So, 8 nights in Rio and I am excited. lookin and flipao 2 Quote

TotallyOz Posted March 19, 2013 Author Posted March 19, 2013 I forgot to mention, I spent the entire week in Salvador looking for an English speaking driver and guide. I never found one. The guy that took me to the Sea Turtle Sanctuary spoke no English but he was fun and I had a good day. He wanted to pick me up and take me to airport for less than regular rate of 94R. He said 70R. I said OK. The next AM, he didn't show but he sent a friend. The friend spoke PERFECT English. He is also available for taxi service and guiding. He has studied English for 10 years and was great at conversation, politics, etc. He has 2 daughters and is not gay but I'll be hiring him on my next trip.

Members RA1 Posted March 20, 2013 Members Posted March 20, 2013 I appreciate the recommendation of a non-gay guide. We all need work and friendly faces. I still need to teach you to pan. :) Best regards, RA1 Quote
TotallyOz Posted March 20, 2013 Author Posted March 20, 2013 Had a nice day in Rio but it was wet and rainy the past few days and not supposed to clear up till Friday. We went to Club 117 today as today is their free Cabine (room) day. That means the boys and customers are packed in. Tuesday is always best at 117. We got there around 5PM to beat the rush and there were few customers there. There were several boys there and they keep coming in faster as the night went on. Club 117 is fresh and keeps getting updates, paint jobs, etc. The back bar area (outside area) is where I like to sit as there is more light in there and you can see really well. I met one guy I really like who is 18 and very sweet. He is also very very dark and new to the scene. I was going to go with him to a room but my friend Tom was heading out and I decided I was happy to test this guy another day. As we were leaving, one of my all time favorite guys walked in. I had not seen him in 7 years. He had lived with me at my hotel for months at a time in years gone by. He was an adorable tall blond twink surfer boy. He is now near 30 and not a twink anymore but he is still handsome. I told him I'd look for him the next day. We went to Point 202 and the place was pretty quite when we were there. There was no one really my type and I regretted not taking Marco from 117 so I left my friend Tom alone in the trongs of a few boys and headed back to Club 117. I got there but I never found my friend. The bar was packed and I did have to pay another 45R to enter but it was worth it to see if my friend was still there. I did see other boys I liked but I had my hopes up on one of my all time favorites. So, I'll try again another day. lookin and flipao 2 Quote
Members Gotti Posted March 20, 2013 Members Posted March 20, 2013 Hi Oz , kindly let me know if the guy you've mentioned , Marco, has a second name, I mean besides the last name. The description fits somebody I was extremely fond of (to put it mildly) and I would love to know if he still doing the rounds. I would imagine he is now 27, maybe 28, no older than that, but the last time I saw him, a little over a year ago, he was still boyish and looked younger than his age. I'm puzzled because nobody ever mentioned his name on this forum, much less published a photo (which I assume he would never agree). Thanks in advance. Quote
Members Casteran Posted March 21, 2013 Members Posted March 21, 2013 Curios question, what do you wear in these saunas? A towel? Street clothes? P.s oz, missed seeing you Thailand last month! No rain this time in Pattaya so I could parade around under the big red umbrella! Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Wow..Oz... You are a strong guy... I will be tired after having sex with just one guy but you don't seem to get tired... I hope you don't get sick again and have fun... Your post makes me feel I'm there myself... Quote

He does not work in the saunas often to my knowledge. I have known him for 10 years. I don't think he would mind me putting his photo up as I have paid him for photo shoots in the past. He is still boyish but not a young twink anymore. He is one of the sweetest guys I know. I went with him out to dinner and around the city tonight and had a blast. I am not sure if it is the same guy you are thinking of but if so, he is a sweetie. Curios question, what do you wear in these saunas? A towel? Street clothes? P.s oz, missed seeing you Thailand last month! No rain this time in Pattaya so I could parade around under the big red umbrella! Sorry I missed you in Thailand. Next time? Some clients take their clothes off and wear towels. Some just wear street clothes. It all depends on what you want to do. I wear my clothes in as I don't like leaving my wallet anywhere my ass isn't on top of it. Wow..Oz... You are a strong guy... I will be tired after having sex with just one guy but you don't seem to get tired... I hope you don't get sick again and have fun... Your post makes me feel I'm there myself...LOL Thanks but I am just trying to keep up with Tomcal and I have failed in that regard. flipao 1 Quote
Guest lurkerspeaks Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 Tomcal could out-sex most of the sauna boys, I think. Quote
Guest hitoallusa Posted March 21, 2013 Posted March 21, 2013 What does TomCal eat or do to have all that stamina! I was tempted to use Viagra once but decided not to and tried some supplements and it didn't work... Sometimes think those porn movies are exaggerated but that's not the case for some guys... Tomcal could out-sex most of the sauna boys, I think. Quote

No rain this time in Pattaya so I could parade around under the big red umbrella! At one time I would wear a towel and flip flops; today I wear my boxers and a tee shirt and drape towel over shoulder. Have not had any problems. If you are a large man, they have large towels, but most guests and "bois" wear towels only! {A few locals stay dressed, select their "boi" or "bois" and take them home or to a sex motel later. They don't connect sexually in the sauna per se.} Quote

TotallyOz Posted March 23, 2013 Author Posted March 23, 2013 I have not done much the past few days expect go to the saunas and hang out with friends. Not much to report until today. My friend tomcal and I met another friend IHPGUY for lunch. We went to The Siqeura Grill which is one of the por kilo places. The food was excellent and the price was decent as well. It is right off the beach and on the same street at Point 202. Ihpguy then took me on a tour of the city which was fascinating. We saw the Quartel Geral do Corpo de Bombeiros. The Fire Brigade of the State of Rio de Janeiro is where the firemen train and it also houses their museum. The museum was open air and quite interesting. Across the street from this was the Praça da República or the Republic Park. This is an area famous for their large rodents (not rats but huge) and also for their gay hookers. The guys sit in the benches and wait for you to approach them. There were tons of them in the park and we chatted with several of them. They gave a price of 30R for a programma and they said they could do everything. There were several that were very cute. If you speak the language, it will be much easier for you. My friend does speak fluent Portuguese and was willing to chat and interpret things for me which is a big help. I wasn't interested in taking anyone from there but it was great to see working boys outside of the saunas and that they are very easy to approach. We then walked to the "hanging gardens" area and then passed by the new Museum and the famous Cathedral in Centro Candelária Church. All in all, it was an amazing day and ihpguy was a fabulous guide and so kind to give me great information about the city and the area. He really is filled with great tidbits of info on EVERYTHING Rio and it was so much fun to learn more about a city I love! Once at the Sauna, Muio Mundo, I knew that Friday night was busy there but I was waiting for my overnight guy Marco and was not going to do with anyone. Until, one guy who I thought was adorable sat down with me and we had an enlightening conversation about how much he loved me. So, I took him and 2 other guys up for a 4 way. It was delightful and fun and each guy took turns with the other guys and me. Great sex from all of them. I was finished for the night until a nice Italian looking guy sat down and started to massage me. He said he was a great massagista and great at sex. I said OK and took him up to the room for the massage. He was great with the massage but then he turned it into a full blown sexcapes. Fantastic and I would recommend him to anyone who wants a "masculine" man. My date Marco showed up and we chatted for a while before he drove me and tomcal back to our area. A fun night with good friends and sexy boys. You can't ask for much more than that! flipao, ihpguy, AdamSmith and 1 other 4 Quote

Guest lurkerspeaks Posted March 23, 2013 Posted March 23, 2013 Very nice, Oz. I see you got a picture of "my" Diogo, with two other boys. I hope you enjoyed him as much as I did.. Quote
Members ihpguy Posted March 23, 2013 Members Posted March 23, 2013 That's "my Chico/Antonio" with the mohican. Told ya. He is not twinky, but the nicest guy anyone will ever meet at the sauna. In contrast to any other sauna boy, if you look in his backpack, you will find two or three books he is reading at the same time. Definitely not typical. flipao and TotallyOz 2 Quote
TotallyOz Posted March 23, 2013 Author Posted March 23, 2013 Very nice, Oz. I see you got a picture of "my" Diogo, with two other boys. I hope you enjoyed him as much as I did..I have enjoyed him a few times. He is quite the personality. Actually, when my overnight guy Marco was coming to the place, he said, "hey, I want you to meet my friend" and he pointed to Diogo. LOL I told him I knew Diogo already. I think he is quiet the popular boy. That's "my Chico/Antonio" with the mohican. Told ya. He is not twinky, but the nicest guy anyone will ever meet at the sauna. In contrast to any other sauna boy, if you look in his backpack, you will find two or three books he is reading at the same time. Definitely not typical.He is really an amazing programma. I was not going to go with him as he is not the young twinky type I like but he sat down next to me and we chatted and his body is rock hard and he convinced me he would be good. He was excellent and as you said, a real special guy! He is someone I'll go with again as I really had a fantastic time with him! flipao 1 Quote
TotallyOz Posted March 24, 2013 Author Posted March 24, 2013 My friend Marco and I spent the day at the gay beach in Ipanema and we had a good time. We had lunch at Debassa in Ipanema with my friend tomcal and his date and watched all the boys go to the beach and then we joined them. Tomcal returned to his place for what I guess was more guys. LOL I just relaxed at the beach with Marco. He had several friends at the beach and some of them gave him a few buds of happy smokes and we lit up. We just chilled, relaxed and smoked a bit while enjoying the scenery and the "tranquility" of Rio! axiom2001, lookin and flipao 3 Quote

Members ihpguy Posted March 24, 2013 Members Posted March 24, 2013 Devassa. My favorite place to drink and eat petiscoes in Ipanema and Lapa as they have like eight different types of brew to sample. And their frango a passarinho, well done with extra garlic and lime is a oral ecstasy, of another sort. For the past two and half years, I've been using Barraca da Miriam, #53. Before that, we used Sonia and Vanya. Oz, after seeing these photos, I am pretty sure that I need to switch back to Sonia. flipao 1 Quote
