    yes and no since we always deal with two markets , local and domestic

    If in our country,  say an apple , cost 1$ and we go to Lesotho where the same may sell for 10 cents but shrewd seller quotes us 20 cents and we go for it two things happened at once, both true :

    1/ we got ripped off,  overpaying twice, ouch  !

    2/ we got what we wanted for 1/5 of home value. Halleluiah !

    is up to us how we go about that , whine or smile 

     

    Haha funny comparison. Usually I try not to be the stupid tourist who would disturb the local market. Like the Cancun story above

    and then some British visitors are coming to Thailand and are loudly complaining about greedy boys asking 5000 baht for overnight 

    I don't know what the going rate in Thailand is but everything is in relation to its market rate. When I am in Barcelona I never pay over 100e simply because I can always get what I want under 100 but I am sure that is not the case for many cities in Western Europe.

    I live in London,  and you would expect to pay £200 for an hour, sometimes, plus uber. You would be lucky to pay less, some guys are asking, and getting, £300 or more. 

    London is really one of the worst value places in the world when it comes to hiring.

  4. I never manage to score fun at the souk. They are tightly lined up so hard to isolate a shop without being seen by other shop owners around. How do you manage to make it happen there? My understanding is that they will close the curtain only when they are not seen by other shop owners?

    I'm keen to know more about the coach drivers too, especially the younger ones. Luxor tempts me a lot, but not sure I want the hassle!

    I hate hassles but it was not a hassle. It was very easy for me, except you cannot bring them to your hotel. Otherwise these guys close the deal relatively quickly. If you want less hassle you might try shoulder season where it is not packed with so many tourists keeping them busy.

  6. Sweatbox was a bit underwhelming during my recent visit. It was Saturday night so I expected it to be packed or people lining up but that was not the case. It was a bit crowded but not like 400 people. There were very few hot guys, though it was very diverse. Also guys don't do actions as much as my recent experience in Lisbon. They were not hostile or anything, actually most guys are friendly in their manner but very limited actions. Also there is a very tiny area that is a maze or dark room but everyone can see who is going in and out and most attractive ones do not go into that area 😂

    I am quite interested in checking out the other one but after my experience in sweatbox I am not that thrilled

    Metro Centrale near Central Station, quite popular, mixed public, nothing special. Saturdays and Sundays a must for the milanesi is Royal Hammam at Lambrate, easy to reach with the metro, nice sauna with big pool, people with attitude and mostly part of a circle of friends, interesting however because is the only place where you can find escorts from Egypt or generally North Africa, usual rate is 50 euro, 99% top. I hope it was helpful

    I was not aware of this sauna with hiring opportunity. From Google reviews it seems like guys go there to have fun so I guess the crowd is mixed with guys for fun and guys for money? How many guys for hiring? Also, is it any good for hiring? Relative to thermas in Barcelona?

  8. In terms of hiring, I also tried Grindr and Google map.

    I didn't mind finding some inexpensive massage with happy endings there so I simply Google gay message on Google map. A few pops up and some are obviously targeting us if you visit their website. Google reviews are better than hunqz reviews because you can check if the reviewers are authentic. I reached out two of the main ones you see in Google. Both of them quoted me an insane amount compared to 100e for sex service that I can easily find. I guess they build their google reputation and charge high for people do not want to spend time on the search. Either way, most of the massages are mediocre in my book but I have been spoiled a lot in Thailand with good massages. So I never took up their offers in Lisbon.

    Another weird thing is that Grindr doesn't work well for me these days. In most places if I show an obvious language to show my intentions to hire, some fishes take the bait and chat up. I recently do not get that anymore wherever I go...even my normal profile gets a very low traffic and I feel like it has something to do with the Grindr s excessive pursuit for money. Unless you pay you don't get much interactions but I don't like initiating Convo on Grindr so maybe that's why I stopped working for me these days. Do you have some similar experience with Grindr?

  9. Beyond hiding Lisbon was a nice place to visit: very good food for relatively inexpensive prices so I enjoyed my time there. 

    Because I had some hiccups with my online hiring initially I decided to try out some saunas there. I knew these saunas are non the place to hire but who knows and no one on this forum talked about saunas in Lisbon. I googled and sauna trombeta stood out. From Google map reviews many said a lot of hot guys and no private cabin to enjoy one on one actions. Well read them by yourselves, they are a bit crazy but my image was that a lot of hot guys are fvcking in the sauna publicly and some Brazilians are doing some trades in the private cabins. So I decided to go there because even if I don't have any actions there at least I can check if there are some interesting trades are going on and can eventually watch some really hot guys are doing some actions in front of me. I usually do not go to saunas where there is no hiring but this one really attracted me so I went! 

    Well, the dark room is a long maze, very dark so hard to see anything but you can see their shapes and can touch their front and back. As soon as I entered just many hands touched me everywhere and because I didn't have sex for a few days I got hard easily. This was right after the African guy incident so I was even more horny 😂  when I hire I am usually more bottom but in these places I prefer being top and I didn't have any intention to do anal there. I found a nice body, short guy with nice round ass so we made out and he gave me bj until I came in his mouth. Ok I thought that was the end and I went to take shower and explore the rest of the sauna. I went to the private cabins and I do some Brazilians there but it was not full as the google reviews said. It was Sunday evening so it should have been so full according to the nasty reviewers there. I didn't notice anything out of the line so I went back to the dark room just to see those hot guys doing stuff but I found another guy who was into me and blown off again lol second time, and this time I came on the face, though I didn't see anything 😂

    Well at thermas I usually cum only twice and it's kinda my limit these days so I decided to end it so I went around again. This time I noticed that the guys in the private cabins areas are giving me the look I get in thermas, they are up for something but I just didn't manage to talk to them about the details. In the bar area I did see some older guys drinking with younger Brazilians so I was not sure if some hiring was going on. 

    I also saw the sauna had massage therapists and one was very sexy in picture so I decided to hire him for 30 min. I was so certain that I will get some extra service, otherwise the price didn't make a lot of sense. Anyway I had to wait ten minutes until the therapist finished his session. Then he came out and he looked as hot as his pictures. When I went to the room, a bit more light and a bit more time, I just noticed he was a chicken legs. I hate them and it just turned me off so badly. Also the massage was mediocre. I was not offered anything extra except he asked if I wanted to continue for one hour as I booked for 30 mins. Of course I just wanted to get out so said no.

    I went out and took shower and I saw some hot guys going into the dark room so I wanted to see their actions but I ended up with another guy. This time he gave me a very nice bj but I topped him. I was surprised I could go for three times in a short period of time outside of thermas 😂 anyway this sauna was a big surprise for me as it had many hot guys, doing the actions without worrying about the crowd. Many hot Brazilians and I guess it's their chill attitude toward sex that makes this sauna unique. 

    So I didn't find any sauna for hiring or didn't have enough info about trombeta but I had my share of fun there. I think it is mostly because I am tall and slender without any bellies, so dark rooms worked well for me 😂

  10. Let me summarize my recent trip. I had a long weekend trip to Lisbon and I was going to attend an event there with my friends so I did not have a lot of time to explore but I had a good grasp of the market. As usual in Europe, hunqz was the most reliable bet but I haven't hired from hunqz for some time. I know that some of the escorts can delete their reviews so I did not find those reviews very useful and that's why I moved away from hunqz. On the surface you find many guys on hunqz but after digging a little bit I realized that it didn't have many guys of my liking. It's not as extensive as Barcelona. But still some options. I also realized that guys in Lisbon are much slower than the guys in Barcelona where I usually get a very quick reply if I contact them through their ad or hunqz website. Most guys quote 100, some 80 (outcalls extra Uber), I got one 120, 150, 200!!! Weirdly the highest two offers were the ugliest 😂 120 was an Argentinian guy who claimed he lost his reviews so smelled a bit fishy and I didn't try. For me bigger sized guys are a problem so it restricted my search quite a bit. Many Brazilians with xx+ so I had to exclude them. I found an African guy who looked like Caribbean or North African. He was 180 + in height and had a very nice well-defined body, not too mascular, very balanced body huge thighs and legs so he was my type in terms of looks and body. He also had a very nice attitude when we messaged: very efficient communication easy to chat upfront about the rates and pictures. So I decided to hire immediately even though he didn't have any reviews. I went to his place and he looked like his at pictures, although a bit balding. I made sure that kissing was okay and everything, so when I arrived we made out and he started having trouble with erection, and of course, when guys have erection problems things get quite ugly. He started telling me that this was his first time and he decided to do it because his friends said he should do it to get extra money and he thought it was easy and the funniest part was that he said he was so confused at the moment when he made out with me and he is straight 😂 well at least he was honest and still had a nice attitude so I decided to end it and pay him 50e, although technically speaking I always say no pay if erection problem. How do you guys deal with erection problems with escorts? I am usually more of a bottom when I hire so erection is essential for me. Without it I don't see any point of hiring them.

    For the second one, I wanted to go for a reliable hire so someone with a lot of positive comments, so ended up with a Brazilian guy. He was a bit short but nice muscular body, very chill and relaxed. We started from a massage, which usually is mediocre in my past experience outside of Asia but he was quite good. Then we finished the deeds without any issues, nice kisser and average size, which is perfect for me. If you are interested in this guy, message me in private but he is not for the size queens. 

    I also noticed there are some local sites like classificadosx and vivastreet when I googled. Some of them list their prices on their ad so I contacted a few but nothing came out fruitful. On these websites I saw some Portuguese guys so I was curious. Weirdly their rates were lower but all of them except one did not go through. And I didn't have time to meet with the one I managed to chat theough. It was on my day of departure and his place was far from the airport. 

    One interesting incident is that some Brazilians advertise with the same number and same rate but different profiles. Maybe they are staying together but I didn't quite understand what they are up to. There were two hot guys and one tranny using the same location and numbers. Two guys advertise it as 50e for 1h but as soon as you contact them they will increase their rate to 100e, which is still fine but it didn't sit well with me. Something was sketchy so I googled the number and some hunqz profiles came up and they didn't have any reviews either. So I didn't bother to explore more but they were not the nicest people with communicate with. Be careful about these guys. They are very obvious on the platform.

    Overall, online hiring was a bit time consuming compared to sauna hires. I always had a very nice impression about Brazilians because they deliver and they are very passionate in sex and have nice looks but in Lisbon I realized that most of my positive impressions came from sauna hires. In Lisbon I ran into some difficult Brazilians when I tried to hire online but I realized that I had the same issue with the Brazilians in London as well. So I kinda paused and said wait, maybe I am so biased because of my sauna experience with them 😆

    So this was my hiring but I will follow up with non hiring part.

    Why create a new thread? Continuing an existing thread provides continuity, context and makes it easier when a member runs a search since you don't have to comb through multiple threads. 

    because nobody replies there, even the ones who already started the thread and visited. At least I always follow up my trips and report back if I do the exploration. I am not a big fan of those guys who create a thread and never follow up after their travel and then show up somewhere else and ask for info but never provide what they find out. This forum works only if we all share our info...

  12. Havent been to Lisbon for a long time and thinking of heading there soon. I know Barcelona thermas might be the only reasonable place in Europe but any chance at Lisbon? Maybe some regular sauna goers might entertain the idea? 

     

    I know hunqz is a good source but anything local?

  13. It is an interesting market for them. Usually the rates for them are higher than Asian ones and they can easily charge what they can charge in most European cities because they are the rare ones in Asia. But the cost of living is really a few times cheaper than European cities and the weather is usually nicer. Plus they can enjoy the white privilege in their daily life so the life quality is better and their profit margin is probably higher as well...

  14. Thanks for the interesting story. It is exactly what I felt while I visited Luxor and Aswan. But I never managed to bring people to my hotel. Even at the Ritz. The main issue was that the bigger the hotel is, more luxurious, but some guys are really not dressed for those hotels and very visibly different. Smaller hotels have tight controls at the reception, which was the case for Aswan. Any hints?

     

    Also can you provide more details on Alexandria and red sea cities in like hurgada?

    Is bareback on the menu or do the guys insist on condoms? I'm on Prep btw.

    I think you can talk to each boy and ask. Usually I am the one who asks for condom but some don't seem to mind...no personal experience because I prefer condom, not just hiv but hep-c. I also do not like taking prep so doing so for escorts is kinda off my limits. I could do for my regulars back home but not sauna...

  16. Instead of creating a new thread, I will give some updates here, mostly about April and May visits to Madrid and Barcelona.

    Madrid: the sauna that has boys for rent still exists but extremely slow. I think it was off the grand via and close to boyberry. I visited it on Sunday, there were two boys and two customers. One was young and on slim side with ok look, not my type. The other one was tall Spanish with belly. I didn't like him at all because he was old and out of shape. But he was kind and told me to go to a different sauna where I can get free sex. I thanked him and left. From some boys at Thermas visiting from Madrid I heard multiple times this Madrid sauna was bad and the manager is not good etc. Cannot comment on the manager but I won't visit this sauna again.

    I went onto the local sites and I realized that the boy selections are not as overwhelming as Barcelona but made some inquiries and was surprised by the price range: most were 150e where in Barcelona I see most at 100e. It was not uncommon to get 200. Anyway one nice thing about Madrid is that you can do a day trip to Barcelona with the new fast trains. It lands in Sants, which is a short walk to Thermas. I didn't do it but I checked the schedule and price and I was surprised the prices were reasonable like 20euros round-trip...

    Barcelona: boyberry was mentioned multiple times here so I wanted to check it out. Either way it is only 6e entrance fee and I went there in the afternoon on a weekday. I was surprised it was quite small and didn't have shower facility and people just roam around with clothes. I see they have nude days but I do not know how it works. The visitors are mostly older guys, some rare young guys but they seem to be into each other. I had around 10 guys at that time, maybe 2 are young. One guy who was around his 30s was getting sucked through a hole and I was just curious to see it from another cubicle through a hole but he stopped it and wiped his tool and came to me. I am not a big fan of sucking but he was a decent looking guy for free sex so I gave him some oral. Overall I might check out another day as it is cheap but I will only go there on a busy day, which seems like Tuesday and weekends.

    Thermas: I usually go there on Wednesday (clients day) and Saturday. Saturday was slight busier than Wed but still the days before covid are done. Many regulars, mostly from Brazil but I do see some slim short Latinos, tanned skin, not sure where they are from. Venezuela? Mexico? I actually do not like the regulars as I know most of them are not my type or cannot deliver. A lot of them got old and you won't see it in the dark sauna but the faces are old when you see them close enough. I was hoping Junior would be there on Saturday during my last visit but he was not. My another favorite is the cuban guy, Daniel, and I had a really good session with him. My last session with him was ok, so I wasn't very excited about it but he exceeded my expectations and delivered something similar to our first experience, which is why I liked him at first place. His performance is really unpredictable but for 50e I don't mind trying and I tip when he exceeds. Just to give an incentive to deliver haha

    Some new faces, or maybe visitors from other cities. Rene, Venezuelan, really my type but his is big so I wanted to try him after someone smaller, but on Saturday I was really struggling to find one, which never happened before. Finally I gave up and just wanted to try him but he left...ah, believe or not, my first time leaving Thermas without hiring. I was angry so I went onto local sites. My favorite is slumi because I can just click the WhatsApp button and send a message. Also many boys put their rate there so it saves unnecessary hassles. I hired a Brazilian, looked gorgeous but in person I realized his pictures were touched or older. The body had a bit more fat than the pictures and ass was not as round as the pictures...but he had a really nice attitude and 100% committed to my satisfaction, so overall I had a nice sex. But I won't hire him again simply based on the looks. 

    Back to thermas boys: I also ran into the Russian guy who was discussed here: Igor. Nice face and attitude, quite honest. I asked him if he kisses, he said no and I said it won't work, so he said ok good luck in a very nice way. He always smiled when we pass by and said good night when I was leaving so I kinda liked his attitude. He seems like a pleasant person and too bad that he doesn't kiss. At least he is honest and I really like honest guys. I know some would lie about kissing and make the session awkward. One guy that annoyed me was the black old guy from Madrid. He wears a cross on his neck, quite fit for his age. But he has a disgusting attitude, like looking down on me, at least they way he talks to me. I don't mind being dominated in sex but until I hire them I want the process to be respectful and pleasant. Some stupid escorts do not know the difference between the two. He is one of them. Either way, he is way too old for my taste and I didn't wanna interact with him but he kept coming to me to chat in an unpleasant manner.

    I also visited thermas in February and had a few good sessions. It was with Junior, David and another Brazilian but he was visiting. I had a dinner with him afterwards. I am realizing that I tend to like the visitors. My last visit made me worry a bit. It is quite obvious that the pre-pandemic glorious days are gone, at least for now. This sort of business stays in business only if they can attract enough talents but I see a visible decline in the look of the boys. I hope it keeps up and brings more attractive boys. I really don't know what factors are in play for this decline but at the moment most attractive guys are visitors from other cities. In the past, I used to see some Spanish guys in the sauna but I don't remember my last encounter with a Spaniard there. Maybe ten years ago?

    Another worry is the new law about escort ads. One thing I really like about Barcelona is the ability to hire from these local websites. I can find my type quite easily from websites and I rarely had disappointing experiences in Barcelona. If these sites are banned, it will depreciate the value of Barcelona for this purpose.

     

  17. I thought Wednesday was the client day, usually attracts more boys, maybe I forgot....

     

    The boys there will charge you more for finishing, that's known, maybe you should talk about it before hiring. The rate is still 50 without Cumming. Did the Russian guy kiss? Some straight guys don't kiss and some do...but I feel like the eastern European ones are usually difficult and Latinos have no problem with kissing....
