floridarob Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I think I'm getting jaded... This is from a resident of Rio: I really don't understand this passion for Brazil and especially for RJ that people have I imagine that a long time ago things were different, but now everything is shit I had a few guys agreeing to 200 reis, then shortly after or the next time insisting on 300. I told them , No thanks. Colombia or Indonesia is looking better, lol Heba as-sa3udeya, Marc in Calif, Mavica and 1 other 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Xclay Posted September 4 Members Share Posted September 4 Sorry to hear that. I have not read all of your impressive thousands of posts (!!!) but the many hundreds I have read have always been informative and very interesting. It must be frustrating to actually be living in Rio and feeling as though "everything" now sucks. Sensitive guy that I am, I know how even a couple of disappointing experiences can sour my mood. However, I was in Brazil for seven weeks during June and July in Rio, SP, and PA, and never had a guy try to jack up the price after our agreement. And while Rio/SP saunas did have more toned "models" a decade ago, I still had good to great romps every night with enthusiastic GPs. Maybe I had a really lucky streak. The only GPs I've encountered post-pandemic who wanted to renegotiate were a few in Cartagena, Colombia in 2021. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Colombia is fun to explore but for me Brazil is still easily number one.

Francisco Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I am in Rio right now, it has been my first trip to Brazil. I have visited Rio and Sao Paulo, and now I am spending the last days of vacation in Rio before returning home. Maybe I had too many expectations after carefully reading the forum messages. The saunas are interesting, but many days they are very quiet, and on days when there are more people, there is not much variety. If you don't like them muscular and around 30, it's more complicated for you. so I have been repeating the same ones, which is not bad either. In the sauna the guys are not pushy, in fact, I travel alone, and the first few days I could sit at the bar tables drinking beer without anyone bothering me, just a few looks and suggestive gestures, but if you don't call them, they don't approach you. in a blatant or aggressive way, at least in my case. The experience these days has been interesting, but perhaps, not enough to travel to Brazil again. As Floridarob says, Colombia seems like a more appealing destination. I will try next.

Maybe I had a really lucky streak. what were you paying in or out of the sauna....?? Do you do quick programas in the saunas or longer outside hook ups? I've always done "short time" like in Thailand in Brazil without any problems, now guys say BY THE HOUR....that mentality was creeping in during my last visit and seems to be expanding. Going to point tonight, will see how it goes.....I haven't been a fan of 117 for a long time, even the bartenders at 117 agree that some guys are getting greedy and then cry when they don't have a client or money for the bus.

Chucky Posted September 4 Share Posted September 4 I was in both Brazil and Colombia in July/August. In Rio I met some truly lovely guys at Point, one from SP, but now permanently in Rio, the other from BH just in Rio for a few weeks. Enjoyed time with one outside of the sauna too. Colombia 🇨🇴 is fantastic, I have a house there,and the men are hot, but its not as simple as in Brazil for sex, and it's definitely more costly. I had approaches from guys of all body types and builds whilst in Rio, and thought the choice on Mondays and Wednesdays was pretty good.

Do you do quick programas in the saunas or longer outside hook ups? Sauna sex only for me, plus the occasional Uber driver. Lagoa for 50 minutes, although sometimes I take one guy for half an hour and then grab a second for the final 20 minutes. Cabin times are shorter in Rio. 11 hours ago, floridarob said: I've always done "short time" like in Thailand in Brazil without any problems, now guys say BY THE HOUR....that mentality was creeping in during my last visit and seems to be expanding. Yes, if they are watching the clock that would be annoying. I set the alarm on the phone so I won't run over and have to pay for the room twice because of extra five minutes of cuddling.

Was good, Hung out with a board member that arrived today for a bit and then did a pity programa with a friend, because he didn't have a customer and had rent due....Not my typical type but I like him enough to make that "sacrifice" 😇 No regrets. There seemed to be a "crew" of guys from Bangu that claimed to be their 1st times at 202, I had to believe them because none of the regulars nor Jr seemed to know them. Something didn't seem right, I told them I'd see them Sunday at Bangu if they went.....vamos a ver....they were all hot though. khaolakguy, Mavica, babybear2 and 3 others 4 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docbr01 Posted September 5 Share Posted September 5 Been to Lagoa two days last week after a long absence… the number and quality of the guys seemed to increase a bit from my previous visit, a few new faces, some muscular hot guys, 2-3 model like handsome guys (not model tall, maybe 1,8 m)… but many where visiting from Northeast cities, Rio or Minas. So not sure if the attendance of guys will keep high with spring and summer approaching (when movement goes to beach cities). Asking price seemed to be around 200-250, especially for visiting guys, with one odd asking of 350 at almost closing time (but a tall, cute, young and strong guy), that I denied but regretted (it’s a red flag to me when they ask higher prices, by previous experience and I was kinda tired already). But definitely saw more “clock watching” and finish quickly vibe than before. floridarob 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Portuguese is pretty fluent, lived here off and on in 2004 for 2 yrs..... know the owners and bartenders/servers pretty well.... my problem is I like "short time" like in Thailand and that wasn't a problem in the past. Many guys today think their time is so valuable they don't want to go to eat, drink without getting paid and hourly rate.....I don't get that, but is where we are.... AGAIN, not every guy, but too many....and like one bartender told me, they make just enough to get by, don't try to do extra and most times don't have enough to pay for their bus home.

Popular Post nikba2515 Posted September 9 Popular Post Share Posted September 9 All about the timing, places, personalties and situations. On the first night I met a beautiful guy with great body zero fat, lean and willing to do just anything. Once it came to an action, he looked cold and only did when told. No eager or enthusiastic whatsoever. Disappointed and yet I made the most of it as his face, and body were so hot. Two days later at the same place, late afternoon as I was checking in, a young twink flashed me a beautiful smile, I returned a wink. Once inside, we chatted, checking out his body and his offerings. He went ahead got the room and supplies, then flashing memory from two days ago hit me, would it be the same. Luckily this young energetic boy/guy “he has baby face” delivered all the good and beyond. Once he drained all my Leche, he cum heavily on my neck and face. We laughed and glued together chest to chest and he gave me one of the best kiss ever. I was hooked, he joined me for drinks and I discovered he just turned 18, I couldn’t believe it and my cock is getting hard as writing. The beauty face, fitted tight elastic young hole, tone lean body, bowl lips wrapped perfectly on my cock and carefree attitude won my heart and pocket to met at my place the next day….. he stayed with me for 5 days. Each morning was a dream, seeing a young beautiful thing laying beside me. Feasting & munching on his beautiful brown young butt and drained every drop of his sweet juice. maump, Keithambrose, tm_nyc and 6 others 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
