Rio and São Paulo October

[Tomcal]

i made my reservations to go to Rio and SP on October 7th for 2 weeks. i was going to go to Porto Alegre also but the limited plane service from SP made that difficult  so i passed.  My apt i have stayed at the past 10 years in Ipanema was remodeled from a 2bdr/2 bath to a 3 bed/3 bath which will make it more fun!  I talk or text regularly with about 10 of them and they all say the situation is still as bad economically as it has been the past 6 months,  i have also gotten messages from guys i haven’t heard or seen in years looking for work or asking about moving to mexico! these guys are going back to escorting after losing jobs as a soccer coach for a school, losing restaurant jobs, Uber drivers etc. unfortunately they are in their mid 30’s to mid 40’s with non worked out bodies(with the exception of 2 of them that look better then they did in 2004 when i met them)! Several have moved back in with their parents with their wives and kids!

today’s exchange rate is $5.30R to $1.00 US

I was planning to go this year in November, but had to scrap my plans due to the pandemic.

 

Will wait for tomcal's full report!

i will be in São Paulo from October 7th to the 10th, then Rio from Oct. 10th to 16th then back to SP the 16th to the 19th! the 3 day weekend in SP there will be 5 of us staying at the house, the first weekend several friends from Porto Alegre are meeting me there as it was difficult to get flights into and out of POA with out long waits due tomorrow the reduction in flights to and from there.
