I was in POA the last 2 week ends. I enjoyed the Mezzaninu sauna with many boys that I already met in my 2 previous trips this year and also a lot of new faces, including some boys who just come here to have some pocket money (particularly during the week ends). This time, I met Michael, who was for the first time in Mezzaninu, having followed the pieces of advice of his friend and neighbour, Alessandro (who had already spent 5 nites in Mezzaninu and was already enjoying the quick money). It was his very first time with a man and he was a little bit scared at the beginning, but he learned rapidly and of course I did not force him to do something he was not willing to do. I asked to do me what I was doing to him. We ended up spending almost one hour in the room. Great time ! Many regulars were there, such as Christopher whose picture has been posted by Tomcal. Mixx and Indiscretus are 2 great place to go after the Mezzaninu sauna. I went to the re-Inauguration of the AlouetteBoate, which tries to be an alternative to Mixx. This new bar is managed by one of the partner of the Mezzaninu sauna, Loura (the other being Rui). The inauguration was a disaster. There were around 5 to 7 customers ... The stripper was nice, but his show was cancelled by Loura. Cover charge was not cancelled ! This place is to be avoided ! This place is much better than Mixx, but if there is no boys so shows and no customers ??? I put on line a calendar of events in gay events in Rio and Porto Alegre (see post of March 18th, 2012 called "my 4th trip to Brazil"). You will find the best nites to go to the clubs.

the best strip action is in Escape with around 10 to 15 boys each nite (more boys on week end). Variety of boys. Drakes has show only on Friday and Saturday at 10 pm and Sunday at 6 pm. More interactive shows (you can touch), but sometimes the place is a little bit dead.

I take note of these places for my next trip to Rio. I found a very nice and cheap por quilo place in Porto Alegre, close to center (crossing between Av Joa Pessoa and Av. Des André da Rocha Thanks for posting

Thank you ihpguy for all the valuable information you post. Looking forward to reading your comments on 117, my favourite place in Rio. Did you try the massagist there (non sexual, but very pleasant)

Who knows the place ? Is it possible to meet boys there ? In saunas ? on the beach ? Thanks for the tips ! (I should be there from Dec 3 to 7).

Indeed Acyr and Jorge need to react ! Bad situation. My preferred place is Club 117. Certainly because I like the more muscular lads.

Thanks for posting the link and the pictures. Matthew Mitcham is one of the officially gay athletes in London. Among the 23 official gay athletes, only 3 are men

It is correct. In Czech, the question is "jsi aktivni nebo passivni ?" (are you active or passive ?)

Nice views !

In Prague again. Escape is much better. Some new attractions, including the "moment of truth" where all boys present in the club go to the back when the bell rings and come back completely nude to sit down close to customers, to be touched and stroked by them. It does not last long, but it is very sexy. In addition, there are the standard shows (oil shows, live show, megastrip). You are not bored spending an evening in Escape. Of course, there is an entry fee of 200 kr (8 €) and drinks are rather expensive, but I like the place. Yesterday, there were 10 boys for the Megastrip. On the other hand, Temple is down. So if you are in Prague, do not forget to head towards Escape, in particular on the week days, where there are always the shows, while there is not show in Temple nor in Drakes.

I already posted this table in a different thread but thought it might be worthy to put it again in a separate thread so that more information can be added or additional comments can be made on the best and worst days of the saunas in Rio and Porto Alegre. From general comments, it seems that Meio Mundo on a Monday night, in particular at the beginning of a month, is a real MUST !

Thanks for posting all these comments, dallastexas. As I was with you, at least for most of the Porto Alegre part in the sauna, I can certify that all what you wrote is correct (I was not in the room though). The best time I had this trip was indeed in Porto Alegre. I love the types of boys we can find there. You mention that Indiscretus was slow for a Saturday, but we went on a Friday. I was a bit disappointed to see the Homen Erectus, since the previous time there was a guy wanking in public that you could also touch and wank.This time, the Homen Erectus had, I guess, a hard on but it was inside his pants, so not as good as previously. The 2 Garçons nus were hot, one had a great face and a lovely ass, although a little big. They were wearing only a small apron and they were wearing it differently: one was "hiding" his front part and showing his butt, the other one was "hiding" half of the front part and half of the back part. Exciting in both cases. In addition to the apron, they are both wearing an army cap .. Very exciting. I found a picture of the Garcons: The nice looking one is the one on the left. He looks a bit fat on this picture, and indeed he is a butch boy, but he is not as fat as he looks on the picture. Lovely face and ass. Very friendly. When we did the circuit from Mezzaninu to Mixx and then to Indiscretus, we were followed by a stripper, one of the twins, who did his dance in Mezzaninu, then went to dance in Mixx and then danced on the bar in Indiscretus. This picture ot the twins is a little old, maybe 2 or 3 years. Now he is more beefy and more muscular and much more tattoed !

I was asked the way to go to Tiergarten The action is around the Lowenbrucke (black circle in the picture), around the tennis tables (red circle in the picture) and in the bushes around. The place is relatively easy to reach, going to Tiergarten metro station (S), then taking Strass des 17 Juni on the right and entering at the first entry (there is a building) to take Bremer weg. The Bridge is around 10 minutes walking from the station Tiergarten S. Have fun

I prepared for myself a kind of program. I introduced recent comments from ihpguy. Maybe you will find it useful for your next trip to Brazil. Do not hesitate to comment and propose modifications. I did not put anything in Pointe 202 since I am not going there sufficiently and I do not have reliable information from visitors. Tonight, I plan to confirm situation at Mezzaninu, Mixx and Indiscretus ...

In Porto Alegre since wednesday. Wednesday I wondered if I would go to Mezzaninu sauna or rest at the hotel, but I decided to go. Incredible number of boys. Maybe 35. Wednesday at Mezzaninu is a very good day. It is Bingo night. Everyone wins what he needs or wants : Boys win money, Customers win drinks or boys ... I had great time with Eduardo who remembered me from last time. He is now passive, while he told me last time that he would never ever have anyone fuck his ass ... Conclusion : Never consider "no" as an answer ! (but ask gently with some insistance). On the other hand, Thursday was rather quiet, with no more than 15 boys and not the stars ! Had some good time though with Jonas. I like his badboy aspect (tattoes, 3 day beard) and his very frienly and smiling attitude !

Thanks, Lurker and Tomcal for the pictures and the comments ! Tom, where is the last guy you posted a picture of, coming from ? 117 ? Pointe 202 ? He looks great ! I love his happy trail, his green eyes and general look

Summary of a visit to Berlin. Lab.Oratory on Thursday (naked night) and Friday (2-4-1 night). Very busy. Voyeur Paradise. Lot of action everywhere. Many cute young men. Outdoor patio is open. It if hot to wander around and inside the containers which are open for real hot action ... Lowenbrucke bridge in Tiergarden around 10 pm on a Friday night. Too early. But already 20 men wandering around, including a few rent boys (not the best quality ...). You can get a quickie for 30 to 50 € depending on the boy and on the quickie ... Rent boy bars. Day of the final of Germany Portugal... A few rent boys in Blue Boy Club or in Tabasco. Rather pushy lads from Bulgaria and Serbia. Not to my liking. Angels table dancing is closed. No more rip off and no more action. Sunday Apollo sauna offered a great show with 3 strippers performing live shows in 3 different areas of the sauna (bar, mirror room and cage in the darkroom). Worth the 20 € to enter the place. Many nice customers who unfortunately have no interest in a bear like me. Great time. Performers were 3 Czech : Johan volny, a regular of the Berlin scene, Aslan Brutti a great looking lad and a new performer who performed for the very first time. He was so shy, following the pieces of advice of his colleages. Really hot. During the first part of the show, boys offer shots to the customers and drink with them. He drunk too much and was drunk at the end. Even more un-inhibited than usually for a Czech boy. Great time in Berlin !

On my way to Porto Alegre (June 13 - 18) and then Rio (June 18 - 23) ! Already my 5th trip to Brazil ! Anyone around ?

Nice pics. It might be worth to go to Belo Horizonte and have a look at the boys in the sauna there. It is not that far from Rio (350 km). Indeed many boys in the sauna in Rio are coming from Minas Gerais (Belo Horizonte is the capital and main city of Minas Gerais). Recently in Boardwalk in Fort Lauderdale, I discussed with one of the cute barmen there. I discovered that he was also from Minas Gerais. He was sooo pleased to hear me saying that the boys from Minas Gerais are the best ! Lurker, how long do you stay in Rio ?

With the Euro 2012 starting today, some visitors might be interested by my comments about Fantom, a sauna and sex club in Warsaw I had contacted a guy from Gayromeo to be escort and to act as a guide in Warsaw and in the sauna fantom. As soon as I landed, I smsed him, but no answer. No answer on the phone. I tried a few times, then decided that it was worthless to try again and that I would not see him. I was on my own ... There are not many places for Gay action in Warsaw. One of the best is supposed to be Fantom club and sauna. It is supposed to be very hard to find, being hidden in a square inside a building, with almost no indication at all. It is officially on Bracka 20A, but I had another way to reach the place which proved very easy: Go through 11, Chmielna. Go left of the Goethe Institut, then 1st passage right is the entrance of the club (1st door of the 3 doors written "fantom") and 2nd passage right is the entrance of the sauna (1st door of the 3 doors written "fantom"). Ring the bell for both and possibly insist ... My hotel was at Chmielna 13. I knew it was close and it was the reason why I had selected it, but I did not know that it was overlooking the entrance of the club/sauna ! I went first to the sauna. Once you have found the place, very warm welcome by the staff. Sauna is extremely clean with a nice bar, nice dry and wet saunas. And many good looking patrons. No twink, but many young nice looking Polish. Some older gentlemen also, of course ! I arrived rather early and could see the other guys arriving. Many were coming. At some point of time, I realized that almost all lockers were used, but when I visited the sauna in the various places I had identified (bar, dry sauna, wet saunas, etc.), I could not see all the patrons. Were did they go to ? I decided to visit a little more in depth, and entered the smoking room. It was a small room, with a few seats and a few patrons smoking. Still many patrons were missing ! Where were they ? I soon found a door in the smoking room going to a backroom which was extremely busy. There is a pitch dark darkroom, and another one, larger, with some light. There is a fence in that room which separates the sauna from the club. people cannot go from the sex club to the sauna, but the fence permits sucking, kissing and fucking between patrons of the sauna and patrons of the sex club. I had some nice time with a good looking lad. From the general attitude of the customers that day, it seems that daddies are welcome in Poland, more than in other countries I know. Finally, even some twinks were coming to the sauna when I left. So the sauna is clearly the place to go whatever your interests are ! I went after that to the Sex Club (when you pay the entrance to the sauna you can go free to the Sex Club. It was 10.30 pm and no much action there ! Except of course in the room with the fence ... My week end in Warsaw was really cheap : Bus to and from airport : 12 Zloty = 3 Euros Entrance to Sauna/sex club : 25 Zloty = 5 Euros Drinks : 16 Zloty = 4 Euros Have fun in Warsaw !

Europebound, were you in Escape last Friday ?

Tomchen, it was also a pleasure to meet you in person. I realized that you were no longer in the club when Daniel came to me asking me where you had gone. Did you go with Nathan ? I ended my night with Nikandro. So much fun with this lad ! For twink lover, there is a new twink in Escape. I met him the very first time he danced in Drakes a few months ago. His name is Robi How was Drakes last Saturday ?

I will be in Escape again next Friday ... We can have a drink if you are there and if we can recognize each other (see private message). Were you also the day before yesterday in Escape at the same place with a boy called Pepa ?

I read only this post when I came back from Escape ... I was also in Escape tonight. I arrived around 10 pm. At the beginning, I was sitting with a friend in the sofa closest to the bar, then I was staying at the bar most of the time, spending time with Nikandro and David, the tall guy who did one of the solo strip.I was long time the only customer at the bar. I also spent a lot of time with the new barman, 3 days of work in Escape only. With Nikandro, we managed to convince him to show us his ass. Lovely little bun ! It was fun to chat with him (he does not speak much English and most of the conversation was in Czech) and to grab his tight ass, muscled legs and to kiss him as French kiss ! I will be again in Escape next Friday. Tomchen, you can send me a private message and some description. I remember some of the customers who were present. Were you with a boy in particular ? Today all customers were staying with a boy it seemed to me ... See you some day !
