Latin America Men and Destinations

Can I hit the ground running or will I have to cool my heels til saturday afternoon? Arriving from Europe (unlike the usual morning arrival from north america). My first trip since covid and coming on the heels of a trip to Istanbul to go to the (disappointing) Aquarius Spa, (I will be reviewing in the europe forum...) which made me realize there is but one Rio in this world and there is no sense waiting for my planned July trip there. So, I'm eager to get started....I'm thinking I might be able to make to to the sauna around 9? And pre-covid I recall the action lasting a little later on Fri/Sat til maybe 10 or even 11? Just want to get an idea in advance becaus…

I hope this is not a taboo subject. This year we celebrate the 10th anniversary of FDA approval of PrEP. (Yes, indeed, I know that PrEP does not protect against other STIs). One of the initial study sites that led to the FDA approval of PrEP was in Brazil and in my pre-covid trips I found that a sizable minority of free Grindr Brazilian guys were into condomless. (In some cities in my travels such as SF, Miami, London, Amsterdam and maybe Paris, condomless seems the majority position.) I have had a few condomless experiences in the saunas, and one with a garotocomlocal, but it seems substantially less than the free gay Grindr Cariocas. I'm speculating that PrEP is tagged …

I'll be arriving in Bogota on August 12. It will be my first sexy time holiday in a while. As an aficionado of gay strip clubs in Montreal and Toronto, I am curious about what's happening at Gigolo's in Bogota. Is it back in full swing? Gracias.

Hey guys! I just returned from a month in Medellin. Wish I'd found this forum before I went. Lots of useful tips. While there is a lot of good info here, I wanted to add a few more that I didn't see mentioned which I either knew before I left or learned the hard way there. 1. It may have been said elsewhere, but I'd like to emphasize that you should speak some Spanish. I found very few people who spoke English. Definitely learn the basics and keep trying to communicate in Spanish - translator apps work well and people will appreciate the effort on your part. 2. If your cellphone plan doesn't allow an option for international use - look at Airalo e-sim…

I am waiting for the friend who is going to take care of my place and my kitty. After checking last details with him, I will pack and leave everything ready to leave tomorrow morning after getting up and showering. It is going to be a long trip, with two stops. First La Guardia and then Miami International before landing in Medellin. I just texted Fercho and they sent me a bunch of pics and clips from about 15 guys. Some of them have 10 pictures, some have only one. I am glad because I found several boys I saw fucking in Bilatinmen. I chose about 6 guys I liked, sent those pictures back, and asked for the logistics. I received a voice message with the following infor…

I have found that there are many hots latino guys on this site. Apparently they are not Brazilian. It also does not look like this is based in US. Anyone knows where is this studio? There are so many hots guys nearby

First tip: beware of flights to VCP. Although Azul flights include a free bus to Sao Paulo, which I did not research, but kind of assumed would be like half-hourly or at least hourly, are surprisingly infrequent. Made a bad decision in hindsight to check out the Priority Pass lounge (talk about perennial dashed expectations!) on arrival and just missed the bus to Barra Funda. The next one was an hour and a half later, and that to CGH airport. I was tempted to title this topic. "Flight lands at noon at VCP; will I make it to the saunas?) Still, it was nice to wait outside the terminal, where the weather was back in my comfort zone (70F) from the ever-increasing heat a…

Has anyone tried any of the guys who advertise on Mileroticos? I tried one guy named Maycol - a black guy with a nice dick, but was not impressed. He was older than in his photos, which was not a huge problem, but his dick didn't really get hard and I didn't really get much pleasure from our interaction. Also, he hosted in some sort of apartment hotel in Laureles where I had a weird interaction with the guy at the front desk. At first he wasn't going to let me up and I couldn't understand what he was saying to me (I speak Spanish, but his Spanish was very nonstandard). Anyway, looking for any recommendations or tips you can offer. https://co.mileroticos.com…

Dear All Thank you all for your advice. I have additional questions: i. which hotels do you recommend in Sao Paulo that are gay friendly and close to the saunas in particular Lagoa? ii. other than Uber, how does one get a safe taxi at the airport? iii. also is there a thread here that tells you the sentences or phrases in Portuguese when talking with the boys in a sauna? Thank you again!

Day 0 After some grueling and stressful months dealing with job responsibilities and the current state of the world the day has finally come to pack up a suitcase and be on my way to sunnier shores. On the itinerary are lots of sunny days and hopefully even more sinful nights with a day or two of work in the São Paulo offices of the local branch of my employer thrown in. I am writing this report mainly for two reasons. Firstly I have been an avid reader of this forum for a long time and the tantalizing escapades from prolific members have always fascinated and entertained me. Consider this my small contribution to the chorus and may it…

Hey all, Hope you guys have had a TERRIFIC start to 2020. My hubby and I came to Rio For Carnaval last saturday, February 22, at around 9 a.m. we were too excited to be here, but soon realized that the huge crowd of garatos we expected at the saunas WOULD NOT exist during carnaval 2020. Now weve been here 4 other times in the last 2 years and the saunas have NEVER DISAPPOINTED. the first time we came in july of 2018, we were back in august of 2018 because we were blown away by the number of beautiful guys in the saunas. We also came for 2018-2019 New years eve and the sauna was packed to capacity and filled with the most beautiful men I've ever seen i…

I don't know it this update has already been presented to the community by someone else. A friend of me in SP who works at the Policia Federal told the there are some news for tourists visiting the country and overstaying the visa. Until the end of 2017 overstaying your tourist visa in Brazil wasn't a big problem. No huge red stamps inside the passport (normally, not automatically, depends on the officer), and a small fine of about R$8/day with a maximum of R$800 in total to be paid before boarding the plane. Not a big concern. The thing has now changed, if they catch you, the new fine is R$100/day with a maximum of R$10,000 per person. It will also result in a …

Is it easy to get good condoms (xxl, skyn) and poppers in Brazil? How much do they cost? The problems of bringing it in from Europe are: 1. It might be intercepted by the airport security. 2. It looses its strength during the flight. Thx!

Has anybody been to Belém? There is a very affordable direct flight from FLL to there on Azul that works for my next trip to Brazil but the most recent info on here concerning Belém that I could find is from 2016.

I spent the evening at Lagoa today. The place was filled with boys. Most were not my type (overly muscled doesn’t do anything for me) but I did find two that were lean and toned and fully vers and passionate which made the trip more than worth while. If anybody else happens to be in SP, I’m planning on spending at least a little more time at Lagoa tomorrow too.

Just before the covid troubles my travel plan to revisit Havana. Any news about this nostalgic place and the beautiful Cuban guys?

Some friend told me that foreigner can open a CPF online by email, but wondering (1) what is the benefits of opening a CPF as a foreigner? (2) do I need to print the online CPF myself? Can I use it as identification document? Appreciate the insights

So, I just returned from SP & posted some of my adventures. I didn’t name any of the sex-providers, but dropped some clues if they were advertising online as garotos, or even more vague descriptions if they worked in the sauna. I also offered to answer some questions via private message to help other members plan their trip to SP. So, after answering multiple questions (to the point of getting annoying) for one member here specifically - I get a text from a garoto that this person is WhatsApp “interviewing” him with a bunch of ridiculous questions, photo requests and insisting on bareback sex. And using my information saying that we’re friends. Yes, I know who t…

I have a chance to get almost free tix to Rio around Carnival and I'm wondering how safe it is, hotel availability, and if there is any interruption in the sauna scene. I go to Mardi Gras in NOLA usually and have never thought of getting to Carnival. I haven't been to Rio since Rogers Thermas days.

Ubers in the Dominican Republic are different than the U.S. Scammers are working with Uber drivers to Defraud you out of your money. I Dont send ubers. Even if I know you, I wont ever send a Uber in the D.R. The way I see it: You want money. I have money. This is a J-O-B. Take a guagua or ride a moto to your Fair Exchange. Fact is: they most likely not going to make money like this in one day. And they KNOW it. If they Refuse to show up because you wont send them a uber, they were most-likely scammers.

I went to brazil Feb 2021, and after almost a year, I took another trip in Jan 2022. Things are pretty different this time. (1) most stores/restaurants/malls are opened with no restrictions, while it is like half of them are closed last time (2) sauna is a lot more packed, it is pretty busy almost every night, both in Sao Paulo and Rio. I met a few new faces I like. In the same time, all the regular ones I saw in 2020, still work in the sauna. The average turn over rate for some boys must be > 3 years I think (3) I also went to Salvaor, but did not really enjoy it that much. Salvador feels like a forgotten city, with many abandoned residential bui…

I went to Colombia this march for 2 weeks and as it was my first trip there and i asked a few people a lot of advice I feel that I shhould share a bit about the trip The trip was a week in Bogota and a week in Cartagena I started in Bogota and booked a hotel in chapinero which seemed like the right place lots of gay nightlife and a lot of escorts around. Bogota is a great city people are friendly and its very easy to find boys there. I speak no spanish and it seemed like noone spoke much english aside from a few people at some of the tourist attractions. That makes it harder as a solo traveler I think if i was travelling with a likeminded friend i would have had a b…

Hello dear horny travelers, I know this has been asked probably a million times and I have read through most posts here. But I can’t help feeling there must be something I missed. I’ll try to summarize a bit based on my limited experience and please feel free to throw in your thoughts: 1. USA: I have always been extremely lucky in New Orleans. I was there again in December and I was drilled 3 to 4 times a day by 8 to 10 inches everyday for a whole week. Almost all free grindr encounters. One boy did ask for Uber and one ‘borrowed’ 20 dollars. I had some luck in Dallas too, but those big Afro men mostly just wanted to suck me to cum. I’m not talking about one or two …

I can get tix r/t to GRU but not sure I want to fly Avianca. Seems like it can be subpar. Any experience here?

I took a look at USD to reais rate when preparing for next trip to brazil, and found usd to reais dropped so much over the past few months from 5.6 to 4.7 Is there a way for us to hedge reais while the rate is favorable?
