Gran Via Sauna in Madrid (and a few notes about Thermas)
davet replied to rehoboth19's topic in European Men and Destinations
The Christmas season in Spain continues until Epiphany in early January. Everything is still festive and busy so I assume Thermas too. -
Is this a regular movie house with a big viewing room or a video cabins place?
-
My first time in BCN, which was over 10 years ago, was during that period. The selection didn't seem different from when I was in BCN other times of the year. Keep in mind that days are short, dark, and drizzly, but Christmas doesn't end in Spain until Epiphany, 12 days later. There were still lights up and night markets.

Do you have current intel on best days to go? There were stories about them trying to jumpstart Tuesday nights.

Renovations? I heard that the facilities were excellent and it's the talent pool that they needed to work on.

Barcelona - Thermas: Summary of Info
davet replied to 12is12's topic in European Men and Destinations
There's a tall Russian guy, not the handsomest but masculine and nice. Other than the Polish (?) guy who used to live at Thermas, I don't recall any other E. Europeans. If that's what you like, they're in Zurich (Czechs and Romanians mostly). -

How do you find/search for Brazilian guys on IG who also have OF accounts? (I prefer to stay off X.) I have followed some Brazilian stunners on IG and sent simple hello messages that got no responses. I think these guys must be aiming for a "legit" modeling career. How would I find the ones who won't mind making some side money while they wait for the big break in Milan and Paris?

This sounds like my kind of scene and a boost to my waffling desire to return to Brazil this year. I looked at Taurus Bar's X feed and the OF models they bring in are not the 9-10 Greek gods who vanished from Lagoa and 117. More like the 5-6 guys - nice and fun chaps, to be sure - who used to grace Fragata and Roger's. Does any place in SP (like Chili House) bring in "interactive" talents?

Barcelona - Thermas: Summary of Info

I managed a side trip to BCN last month and can summarize as: Seems like old times. Packed with about as many workers and clients (20+ each) from 3 pm - 8 pm on a Friday and Saturday night. Guys were not exodusing yet at that time. Many familiar faces, many new talent, 50EUR. -
A power wash, steam spray, and sand blast is my routine.

I contacted Thermas and learned that the Splash party is still every night. -
Design the emoji and spread it around.

Probably. But every year, an area half the size of France gets flooded in this natural wetlands. Unless they figure out how to drain that (and I hope not!) I would think that any development would be constrained.

Jaguar is a score! My rare sighting was a giant anteater (two, actually).

Thanks for the report. I might be there later this year. How late did you stay and can you confirm whether they kick everyone out at a certain hour to make way for the Splash party? One of the more "interesting" experiences I've had was spending a whole night at Thermas and seeing what goes on there (not much, but not bad). I might try that again. -

Their website currently says open 24/7. No mention of the Splash party. -
The incredible dorama / k-drama fever in Brazil affected my sex life!
davet replied to endlessdream's topic in Gay Brazil
East Asia is rising and having its moment. China, I believe, has replaced the US as Brazil's and Argentina's biggest trading partner. Asia-chic is now big around the world. But well before this, I think Latin Americans, in contrast to Northern Hemisphereans, are just more open to new and different things and people. "Hmmm, I haven't had THAT yet. Let's see ..." -
The ridiculous ‘priority by law’ situation in Brazil
davet replied to endlessdream's topic in Gay Brazil
Autism is a priority category. Obesity is also a priority category. (That's the 2nd symbol from the right.) I think bodybuilders should also get a priority seat. Then garoto and client can ride the metro to 202 together, each in their own reserved seats. -
Easy: big, fancy buffet, lotto, prizes, giveaways, but ... must pass the casting couch audition. (I volunteer) "a lot of huge dicks attached to, well, less than beautiful men" - Basically, new Lagoa has turned into old Fragata.

The Pantanal is fantastic, like a small-game safari. I can never spot animals in the jungle, but in the pantanal, they literally stroll down the side of the road. Didn't even think about looking for a sauna in Campo Grande or Cuiaba.

Should move this to another thread but don't ask don't tell has been the working model in Arab and Islamic countries for centuries. Idealized pederasty (probably after the Greek practice) was written up in medieval Persian and Arab poetry. Consumptive 19th century French writers went to North Africa for recuperation and certain commonly available forms of comfort.

Discouraging report, but this was midweek. Hopefully, weekend would have been better. As for GfP, this is a longstanding fantasy for many gay men, but I imagine others don't prefer it. GfP guys have gotten quite advanced in their face-sucking skills in Spain and Brazil.
