In less than 2 months, my partner and I will be in Rio celebrating New Years for a week! It's been almost 6 months since we were last in Rio and aside from wearing masks in the ubers and in some restaurants, things were the same... In the next month, we will start hitting up our favorites letting them know we will be there the day after Christmas... Questions @Tomcal what are the new days for which sauna? Not sure if they have changed but I know you will know what is the best day to go to Pointe versus 117...

A couple of weeks ago, I had an interesting encounter in Vancouver with a German guy visiting from Munich. We were eating by ourselves at a Brazilian restaurant and started a conversation after he heard me practicing my broken Portuguese with the waitress. After that, we shared a table and had some fun discussions about travel, languages, and life and shared some good laughs. Kinda craving that human interaction after being dormant for the entire pandemic It was very nice of him to buy me a capirinha even though he didn't need to. He said he would be staying in Rio in Copacabana from early Dec all the way until right before the New Year. I got the vibe that he could…

Background: I have been to Thailand many times but am still very new to Brazil. I’m hoping some of the more experienced members can tell me if I’m worried about nothing here or not. I have been chatting occasionally with an absurdly hot guy from Rio on IG and WhatsApp. He models but does not do porn and says he does not work in the saunas. Today, I mentioned to him that I would be in Rio next month and asked if he would like to meet, to which he replied, “i scort u know.” I said I was fine with that and we discussed some the particulars of what we would do together and eventually he proposed a very reasonable amount for his time. As I was about to end the convers…

this article recently appeared in a publication with a interview of Junior Barbarossa the owner of Pointe. He like everyone else does not think the gay escort saunas will last much longer(as most everyone agrees)! So for those who have been putting off going for whatever reason, you should go this next year as it could be your last chance!

1. PCR tests For Canadians visiting Brazil, PCR tests are required both for flying into Brazil and back to Canada. It's annoying that you have to add these into your trip plan. The GIG airport PCR testing is very organized and results are available in 4 hours (3 for my experience). Cost is 315 reals. They will help you print a copy as well at the GIG basement level where you do the test. The fee is insignificant comparing to the hassle that you have to plan it and the uncertainty that one might test positive. 2. VIP lounges Very disappointing, GIG VIP lounges are closed to priority club or lounge pass users. only business class travellers. At Panama city…

#LatePost Another weekend of sex sex and more sex. So the hubby and I decide to take ANOTHER, YES ANOTHER trip to the DR. Hes told me many times how much he prefers the DR over Rio. With our ability to jump on a Spirit flight on a Friday night, PHUCK ALL WEEKEND and come back home Sunday night, im beginning to agree with him. When we arrive, I manny has a few new guys that he wanted us to check out, but my hubby has his regular that he enjoys and I met this officer the last time I was there so i wanted o try something new. True story about how I met this officer in the colonial zone and got his whatsapp number. Last month when we were there I went to…

Most of the type of guys that used to go to old Fragata, went to and stayed at Lagoa. I went on opening night and a couple of times after...even though I liked old Fragata, the new one never caught my attention, and obviously not many others either. From their Instagram:

i came down to Merida this weeek and it has been good! Grindr is alive and well. 2-1/2 or 3 years ago i was down here and meeting a guy for dinner while waiting for him at the house i was on grindr message me and said hey you like you’re pretty close to me and I looked and I said It looks like you must be less then a block away! so i opened the door and look down the block and there are some standing there good looking guy and he was waiting to eat so he went to the house we sat on the couch and you’re just ourselves and within about two minutes it was my dinner date! so i invited tge third guy to dinner with us! we had a good time at dinner but they both had to leave …

I have been wanting to write about my crazy adventures in Brazil. Because for the better part of the past year I have been living in Rio working remote. It’s been a life changing experience. Once I broke free of the GP scene (be careful it’s a trap). I discovered a whole new world! I have experienced places in Rio that I don’t think many Gringos or expats wouldn’t dare to venture to. Bailes in Mandu, São Joao, Penha, Providencia, CDD, Rocinha, Vidigal and so many other cool places. Which were all very safe for me because I used common sense. Also because I’m a young black man and I’m accompanied by other black Brazilians I never don’t feel safe. It’s been ama…

I have become aware of two different guys living in Rio that both have a triangle tattoo on their chest. Does anybody know what it symbolizes (attached)? I’m curious.

i got to Rio today after the overnight flight from Miami! i love the 5 hours less travel time then coming from SoCal, i am staying in a different apt. then i have the past 11 years as it wasn’t available! the location is great, i’m in Ipanema a 1/2 block from Farme de amoedo and r. visconde de piraja, which used to be the heart of gay nightlife but no more!🥲 My phone started going off as soon as i landed and there was one of my favorites here to greet me 15 minutes after i arrived! we went to lunch then played around for a hour and. then he left and i got ready to go to 117, it was raining very hard but there was a surprising number of guys there and fairly busy…

Is anybody in Rio this week?

Word to the wise:

An article in today's Wall Street Journal is headlined "Brazil Comes Out of Pandemic." It states: "High acceptance of vaccines across the region has allowed governments to quickly immunize their populations as global supplies of Covid-19 shots become widely available. About 72% of Brazilians have now received at least one vaccine dose, more than in the U.S., where 64% have gotten at least one shot, according to Our World in Data." So, Brazil is now safer than the US? If so, I should be planning m travel. The article goes on to state how prices keep increasing there.

A friend at the airline sent me this today:

I am heading back to Rio and São Paulo the first week in October. i was last there in May, but now i will be flying from Miami instead of OC airport so a lot shorter flight!

… engage in the hassle of price-comparing in order to try to survive on a basic subsistence income. Maybe they could take some playbook pointers on other nickel-and-diming price-fix scenarios. It could be that the example stated is an extreme outlier, but the reality holds.

From November 2020, Rio news pulled from police bloggers. It reads to me like the clients were super shady — including the Swiss millionaire with the Leblon penthouse apartment! English translation: GAROTO DE PROGRAMA GOES TO ASSIST GAY COUPLE IN PENTHOUSE IN LEBLON, LITERALLY ENDS UP CARRYING A PIPE, AND WHEN HE GOES TO CLAIM AT THE 14 DP IN THE BAIRRO, HE GETS STUCK THERE A 26-year-old boy, who claims to have gone into prostitution to pay child support, was arrested yesterday after going to the Leblon police station complaining that he had not received payment for a program he did on the penthouse in an apartment in the neighborhood, lasting 48 hou…

It looks like Brazil will be heading off the red travel list and no need to quarantine on return to UK so I after an almost 2 year wait it's time to return to Brazil! Looking to go Sao Paulo in mid December then Xmas and NYE in Rio. I already have airbnb booked in Sao Paulo and Rio and I have a night flight from Rio so was thinking of renting a love motel for 4-6 hours to fill in the day before the flight, never done a love motel so was hoping you guys could give me some pointers. Was looking at Love Time Motel in Rio: http://www.lovetimehotel.com.br/ Has anyone tried this one or recommend another? I am big on the fucking armchair (poltrona erotica) which so…

After hemming and hawing between a short trip to the Dominican Republic this fall or a larger trip to Brazil later this winter I chose delayed gratification and bought tickets to Rio! This will be my first trip to Brazil and my first trip after covid hit. My plan is two weeks in Rio, a few days in Salvador, a few days in Iguazu and finishing off the trip in São Paulo. I’ve got a few questions if any of you all have answers. I’d like to stay in an area that’s also good for my straight companion who’ll be visiting with me for a week in Rio. Looking for a good area with lots of food options, tourist friendly and a good place for a first time visitor…

And for those of you naysayers who are in deep about certain higher-end garotos commanding higher prices in Brazilian saunas, the younger live-in boyfriend / possible husband of the mother of soccer superstar Neymar was getting paid 500 reais at Sauna Boa Vista in Recife — according to the Braziiian client who paid him (“worth every penny!”).

any news about Cuba?

Visitors may want to figure out how to accommodate this. A done deal unless another round of political bickering. https://www.google.ca/amp/s/g1.globo.com/google/amp/rj/rio-de-janeiro/noticia/2021/09/14/passaporte-de-vacinacao-os-detalhes-da-medida-que-comeca-a-valer-nesta-quarta-feira-no-rio.ghtml
