Members Riobard Posted December 17 Members Posted December 17 I’ve been to São Bento Sunday morning services, standing room. Worth it especially since you can take in other sights in the vicinity. There’s a canto clip on their site. https://www.mosteirodesaobentorio.org.br/espiritualidade/canto-gregoriano/ Xclay and Mavica 2 Quote
Members travguy Posted Friday at 04:14 PM Author Members Posted Friday at 04:14 PM Update Friday 12/20/24 noon in Rio Thanks folks for the various comments. I will leave out some of the typical tourist stuff. Tuesday: Went to the beach around the Aproador area, climbed the rocks and found the muscle gym at the beach near the rocks - sort of like the Flintstones as the benches and weights all seemed to be reinforced concrete. Guys were pretty hot - literally and figuratively as there was no shade there. Not sure how they secure the weights at night. And then another free cabin Tuesday night at 117. The visual smorgasbord was great, though not quite like last week. All depends on what type of guy you are looking for. I was looking for a muscle god with very little fat and a 6 pack. Or even a skinny twink with a nice face and dick. I lusted after Marcel from Sao Paulo. Great kisser. It was a hot session; AC barely was on. Room was a bit warm. LOL. He was hot. This was a 33 yo guy that reminded me of one of the hotter guys in high school years ago. Folks, here cums the bad news: yeah, I paid too much, or did I? Chinese guy from Helsinki made the intro for me as he knew him but did not hire him while he was in Sao Paulo. Another younger guy punter from Rio that I sometimes hang with knew him from a few years ago. Thought he was from Belo Horiz. Guy from Rio also remembered when we balked at me having sex with another super-hot guy for 200 R$ last trip this past spring - because he would not bottom, only oral. The GP from Saturday night remembered me from prior trip. 200R$ to bottom plus oral, kissing, etc, but almost double if he would cum. Inflation, I guess. Marcel offered me a discount for another round of sex ? different day? "Frequent Cummer Club" (gives new meaning to the FCC - regulates broadcasting in the US) …. How about a business class upgrade or a free night at a hotel. Green Stamps maybe? Why did I pay his high asking price? Escorts on Grindr wanted 400 R$ for everything including both of us having happy endings. I tried bargaining with several GPs over several nights at 117, 202, and Meio Mundo. Most would barely drop the asked for rate. So maybe they knew they would get their price from another punter. The guys I talked to and mostly in PT or FR with some EN were hot to my tastes. Or maybe because I am a top. Regardless, I needed the Priceline negotiator, and it wasn't happening, and I did not want to lose this guy. So, I paid and we played. I was at 117 from 1820 to almost 2100 hours. Did not see anyone I thought might be from the Forum or foreigners I recognized from other nights. Wednesday: Spent the day in Niteroi and went to an early evening samba school art exhibit opening at MAC, the museum that looks like a flying saucer, designed by Oscar Niemeyer. Yes, as before, the museum has tons of unused space and almost more employees than visitors. Great fun and they had food and drinks for the exhibit opening party. Interesting to mix water, some type of orange juice, very cheap champers, and beer with potato and other hors d'oeuvres and possibly the best guacamole I have had in a long time. If you are shopping for "stuff" or meds, price things out in Rio first, price it out in Niteroi to follow, and you will likely buy in Niteroi, as many prices are much lower here. Caution: a few prices are higher across the bay. Meds (need to check many places) and food can be 1/2 price vs Rio. Got back late via the ferry, so no boys today. I heard there is a sauna in Niteroi but did not check it out or even look it up....LOL. Thursday: Another beach day in the Rookery. While there, I really did not connect with anyone. But then I saw a vision of heaven Imagine Venus de Milo, Ursula Andress (Dr No Bond movie beach scene) gay equivalent coming out of the surf at the gay rookery as I was going in. I took some pics later on. I hope they are ok to post. If not, I understand moderator deletion. Not sure where he was hanging out but was frolicking in the surf with another young friend as I left the beach. Definitely had to get off after seeing him. Yup, Sexy Rose again. from 1730-1900 hours. It was busy, but not like Monday. Places to eat nearby in Cinelandia like Amarelinho da Cinelândia and Chapolin next door - where I ate were packed and had tables up set outside beyond too. Saw many gay couples hand in hand walking around Ipanema when I got back. Friday morning has been sunny then cloudy, back and forth. Might not rain today, though rain is predicted on and off for the next week. Might hit the Fort near copa and aproador. Thinking about going to The Week, if it is still going on Sat night. floridarob, Latbear4blk, Primeone385 and 1 other 3 1 Quote

Members buttercawan Posted Saturday at 09:20 AM Members Posted Saturday at 09:20 AM I arrived in Rio last night after a very long flight. Managed to go to 202 around 9 pm as it was nearer to me than 117. Crowd was bad, got a drag singing to almost empty venue. Spent most of the time in the steam room to relax and some fun. It was drizzling when I walked back from 202. Wanted to go to Chupps or Taurus after but the rain and tiredness won. Mavica 1 Quote
Taikonaut Posted Saturday at 09:35 AM Posted Saturday at 09:35 AM Wait the rate with leche is now really at 400? Or was it just some gringo fleecing attempt? Quote

Members travguy Posted Saturday at 04:42 PM Author Members Posted Saturday at 04:42 PM Update Saturday 12/21/24 1300 in Rio Thanks folks for the various comments and currency graph. I have been quoted 350-400 R$ from multiple GPs if they bottom and also provide leche. 100 R$ at Bangu Sauna, Boate Casa Grande - but the GPs in Rio were what I consider more muscle jock or surfer types, pretty darn hot in my humble opinion, vs Bangu GPs who were simply young guy next door types - and mostly fairly thin and looked a bit sketchy overall. Almost all were black or mulatto and quite friendly for the most part - I would not have paid much more for the PT only speaking Bangu guys. So, in brief, I think I was looking for top priced talent at 117, 202, and N Meio Mundo (300 R$ - but sex was almost impossible due to romp room being an oven). On Friday afternoon, the clouds started rolling in at Ipanema. Did a bit of shopping and by 1630 it was a downpour for about 30 minutes. Rest of the night was on and off drizzle, rain, with patches of no rain. Just a crappy night, so I did not go out. There was supposed to be a good Friday night club on T de Melo, 31. (Friday possibly being the only gay night) But due to the rain, I think most folks stayed in. Likely explains lack of activity at 202. Saturday am has been dark cloudy but now patches of sun can be seen offshore to Ipanema's beach. May head to centro for play as more rain is predicted. Might do the trip to Bangu again if Sunday proves rainy as predicted. If others are in Rio, feel free to contact me and share a cab / Uber. Thinking about going to The Week, r Sacadura Cabral 137, if it is still going on Sat night. However, I cannot find any current information about it. There is one in S P as well. Might try to walk past the location as it seems walkable from Pred Vargas and the M Rio subway stop. Could also consider Taurus at rua da Lapa, 8, again late Sat night if the Cines (Cine Iris, r de Carioca 49 Cine Rex r Alvaro Alvim ?33) and Sexy Rose (r Alvaro Alvin ?33) are bad this afternoon.

You might have a reputation of paying more, so that is why these guys charge you more, working boys talk and share customer habits if you are in a good finance condition, 400R is not a big deal anyway floridarob, macdaddi and Primeone385 3 Quote
Members travguy Posted Saturday at 05:17 PM Author Members Posted Saturday at 05:17 PM Babybear2: excellent comment. But I paid the other guy at 117 without leche 200. I think it was with leche for same price a year or so ago. He wanted almost double for leche and I said no thank you. The highly paid guy would have been a top paid GP in prior years as well and he was close to my ideal guy and did bottom, good kisser, oral, leche and all. Just no massage. Lol. So for me this ideal guy was worth the high price one time - but also invited to the Frequent Cummers Club with discount 😯. In prior years some of the tall hot muscular mostly black GPs also quoted double the other GPSs for everything. So if 200 ish is the new going rate for them to bottom without leche, welcome to the new world. Glad to hear the comments of others as I certainly do not want want to set a bad example for paying gouged prices. Please also note I do speak some PT and for what it’s worth I am in reasonable shape for age - yeah and viagra plus alcohol helps us all. Lol Thx again babybear2 👍 floridarob and Mavica 2 Quote
Members buttercawan Posted Saturday at 05:57 PM Members Posted Saturday at 05:57 PM @travguy Seach for The Home instead of The Week. Might be interested in Bangú since I never been there. Quote
Members travguy Posted Saturday at 07:23 PM Author Members Posted Saturday at 07:23 PM Buttercawan is Jedi Master ! How did you know about the name change to Home? I am in ipanema near G Osorio, p m me re Home tonight or Bangu Sunday if you can. Thx walked past the address for the week which is 137 and home is 135 and there does seem to a club in there at 135 and 137. Security guard at 135. Seems to be same space from the outside doors. Home has an instagram website that is up to date and includes a flyer for tonight. So big (but not high) hopes for tonight. I am no longer a 24 yo gym bunny. Iris was a bust on Saturday afternoon. Mostly 3-4 trannies looking for ? Pay for play? I had been there before when it had some action. At sexy rose now and having the chrome on my tool polished. Lol. Not tons of folks but folks who like to service Mavica 1 Quote

I like to wait until the end of the night, when they don't have a chance of another customer.... they ask me if I want them to cum, I say that's up to you...more important that I cum, that's the whole point of this.... 90% of the times, they'll cum because they been holding it for most of the night 😉 Primeone385 1 Quote

Members young11 Posted Monday at 10:01 PM Members Posted Monday at 10:01 PM What is the going rate for tops at 117 or 202 these days? I assume it should be less than 200? And how much is the cabin? And how much is the massage at 202? Quote

I would also say make sure that whatever that if a place does have that tip screen make sure the math is correct. There was stuff on the news that people were paying more than they should when tipping. Because they would only pay attention to the percentage and not the number above. So as an example it would 10% and of $20 thats $2. Some people were so busy that they didnt recognize that $3.50 or $5 was not correct. This was in the USA and in California . So if they do it in the States they doing the that type of scam elsewhere. Oh and now they are asking for tips with self checkout at grocery stores. Uhhh hell no. https://i.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPTc5MGI3NjExbnZobzg5M2UzY3pkM2xhZ21oeWh0MGNyemk3ZzVtMGVmejhidGFlaCZlcD12MV9pbnRlcm5hbF9naWZfYnlfaWQmY3Q9Zw/3o7aCWDyW0PJCsxHna/giphy.mp4 Quote
