Lucky, I consider @floridarob a friend. This is an inner joke, I hope you understand.

I did not know! I just liked the Airbnb's price and amenities! Thank you for letting me know. I will be a little bit longer than a month staying there. I am working on deciding where to settle down, as I think that the nomad life is not the best option for me. After traveling for one year, I will make a decision. And up to now, the two candidates to become my new home are Rio de Janeiro and Medellin. It is great to know that I will be in a good location in Medayork!

In Buenos Aires, I still like Palermo rather than V Devoto.

I asked the cleaning lady (she comes every day but Sundays) whether all the units in the building were designed as the one I am occupying. I laughed at her expression when she told me no. Obviously, everyone comments about the two showers and the other weirdo things. After she finished cleaning up and left, she even rang my bell a few minutes after to show me how "normal" other unit was. I think the only explanation is that this apartment was designed for someone on a wheelchair. That would explain everything. I continued the exploration of the city. I spent a few hours this week walking the old town, starting at Marco Zero. Everything is remarkably clean, and public work and private developments are everywhere. According to my conversations with multiple airbus drivers, the local prefeito is doing a good job. I loved the old city, although I decided not to cross to the Parque Das Esculturas after reading bad reviews about missing and crumbling pieces of art. Right at Marco Zero there is a huge expo building with local art craft. I found specially appealing some of the stuff made with natural elements. The famous bonecos museum was a disappointment, I would have not spent those 30R if I knew better. IMG_7993.mov Although I am saving money by cooking, I could not resist the temptation to sit by the ocean and enjoy a meal outdoors and under the refreshing breeze. Last Friday, I moved away from the coast and visited the local Botanic Garden. It was a disappointment, I was expecting something bigger and more impressive, but it was a nice stroll anyways. This week I went to Termas Boa Vista three times. I am very impressed at the size and the high quality of the building and the service. The venue is just huge, I got lost the two first days. They have generous administrative offices, with a desk for checking in and a different one for checking out. Several rooms to sit and relax, a dressing room with more than 300 lockers, showers and restrooms everywhere, a barber, a massage room, a generous bar with a movable roof, a disco with a stage and a second bar, a store with clothing and many many sungas, at least 6 luxury suites you have to pay for, a straight and a gay porn room, a semi dark labyrinth full of free cabins, and a dark room I did not dare to walk in into (yet). I am shy (fuck you in advance @floridarob for any eventual piadas), so I am slowly feeling more comfortable with the place. My first visit was on a Wednesday. Only the main bar was opened, and very few people were lurking around. At checking in, I was told that I was allowed to be dressed if I stayed inside the bar, but the policy was to be undressed if I was going to be circulating around. So I tried to do the same I always do, and stayed at the bar. As I would learn later, it was a mistake. As I did not see anyone attractive, I drunk my two regular caipiroskas and left after one hour (6:30 to 7:30). The drinks are good and affordable. Everything is. The second visit was Saturday. There were a lot of people. At the bar, besides all the regular Brazilian snacks, they also seem to always have two major dinner dishes, generously served, at 24R. This time I saw several eye candy, and I understood the friends who commented in other threads about the difficulty to distinguish regular patrons from GPs. This sauna is not a GP sauna like the ones I am used to, but a mixed one. Most of the hot action takes places amongst civilians. After my first drink, I befriended a local guy. Thanks for Brazilian hyper sociability, otherwise I would have spent the entire night alone (fuck you @floridarob). He gave me a tour through the labyrinth and explained the cabins system. He also pointed out to the difference between the two porn rooms, one next to the other. Where you can see gay porn on the screen, is where the gay patrons cruise each other. The straight porn room is where the GPs exhibit their tools. I did the entire tour all dressed up, and noticed other few locals doing the same, so the rules are apparently bendable. However, it was late and I was not in the mood for changing, you I just had fun chatting and learning from my new friend. He told me that to distinguish GPs from civilians you have to look at the towels, the GPs, he said, wear it with the sauna watermark on the front. However, my experience taught me that this is not accurate. After saying goodbye to him, I went back home virgin again. My third visit was yesterday, Saturday. Damn, the place was packed! I arrived about 7:25 and there were a lot of guys in all the different ambiences. The thing would get more comfortable for me (remember, I am shy and do not like crowds -fuck you Floridarob) at 9, when they open the access to the disco room. This time, I followed my Brazilian friend's advise and change to the towel. You know, when in Rome... I did it after my first capiroska. First, I wanted to check whether or not it was worthy. I saw a lot of eye candy, and thought it was not really that hard to distinguish between GPs and clients, although I do recognize the difficulty. After my first drink I changed. I thought bout sending a selfie to Floridarob with me semi naked and using my reais as a fan, but the dressing room was packed, and that bitch would probably use my selfie to create a meme. Undressing was a great decision. I immediately mingled with the crowd. When I went to the bar to order my second capiroska, several guys engaged in conversation. Not only was it fun, but very good for my ego and my self esteem, as a few guys considerable younger than me (probably in their late 30s/early 40s) made advances. Unfortunately, I am spoiled by GPs and was only looking for hotties in their 20s. After a long while, I broke out from the pointless flirting and went to the labyrinth. I connected with a GP, got a suite, and had my first (and only so far) programa in Recife. It was OK, but forgettable and will not repeat with him. What impressed me was the suite. At the reception they only give you the key and warn you that you have 1 hour (yes! one full hour!), if you go over that time you have a new charge. The room was spotless. A double bed with real sheets, A/C with the remote control there, camisinha, lube, two clean towels, and a perfectly working double shower with hot and cold water. In the ticket the charge says "presidential suite", and it was only 40R. After going to the locker to pay for the programa, I tried to get a second one. There was a guy I had already seen the night before and was smoking hot. Unfortunately, he was only top. I saw a couple more of very hot guys but they were civilians. My local friends advised me to stay to see the stripper (one guy) show at 10, but I was tired and went back home by 9:30. The place is open up to 6am, and invite you with a free breakfast at 5:30 if you stay. I would have taken the offer in my other life, but 25 years in DC killed my vampire gen. The prices are very affordable, and all the staff is super professional. Unlike the other saunas I've been too, this place is managed as a very serious business. I do not know whether or not it is true, but the locals told me it is the melhor sauna gay do Brasil, and they seem very proud of it. Today, Sunday, my plan was to hang out in the beach. I walked up to Paris Plage Recife, the barraca with the best recommendations in the web. I got there at 10;30 am and they already had ran out of places in the first line. As I did not want to be sitting watching someone's back, specially when families with kiddos were everywhere, I went back home to enjoy the swimming pool. But damn it, the breeders had also taken it over. So I am relaxing and catching up at my place. I will probably go out tonight, my new local friend is recommending another sauna. Recife Spa, also located in Boa Vista. In summary, weekdays do not seem to be popular in Termas Boa Vista and I will probably will not return on those days. The two levels facilities are huge and impressive, everything looks modern, new, and perfectly maintained, as if the place just opened for business. The staff is friendly and super professional, and the patrons are very friendly. The GPs are very different compared to my previous experience. They do not advance when you are in the bar, most of them don't even look at you, and do not go to the bar. The hot are is in the labyrinth, but it is straight to the point. For instance, when I told my GP that I would not make the decision to have a programa with him without previously making out and checking the chemistry, he did not kiss me in public. Instead, we went to one of the free cabins and closed the door behind us before making out. They are very discrete and I did not see them hanging out with clients in the bar. Prices are similar to Salvador. I paid 150, I was told locals pay between 50 and 100. Also, remember that I do not like the wet or the dry saunas. I was told a lot of action takes place there, but I did not step in.

If you are looking for sex stories, you can skip this post. I arrived last Monday after a short flight from Salvador. I like Recife's airport, specially its location in the middle of the city. The Uber trip to my airbnb was not even 15 minutes. I do have to say something about my airbnb. It is not bad, it is just weird, the weirdest place I have stayed in. It is a tall, 20 story building two blocks from the coast. I am guessing it was innovative 20 yeas ago, but I feel like in a failed technology experiment. For instance, look atnthe lights controls. Instead of having the needed switches in each room, I have to memorize 20 different numbers and what light each one switches on/off. Of course I am not memorizing any shit, and I feel like texting messages until I find the lights I want. The white control atnthe bottom is for the table. You cannot move the table around, it is fixed to the floor. You can use the control to set the table's height. Then, you have the bathroom. That is what I see when I am standing in front of the bathroom mirror, because it is not vertical but with a slope, like it is designed for a dwarf or a kiddo. The top mirror is OK, but it is above my head (I am 5'7 tall). You can also see the round mirror, that should be installed at a higher level. I have not yet shaved since I arrived, but I will have to bend like when I have to suck a tall guy's cock. And there is more. There are two showers, both on top of the toilet. I guess whoever designed the apartment liked to shower while seating taking a shit. There are good things, though. Surprisingly, I have hot water in all faucets in the bathroom and the kitchen. Talking about the kitchen, it is not well equipped for a long stay. If I was staying for a week, it would be perfect, but I am going to be here for an entire month. I made an inventory and asked the host whether he can bring me a kitchen knife, a can opener, a potato peeler, and a bowl, and he graciously responded positively to my request. I would love to have an oven, but I can handle with the small pans and pot I have. It is a 15th floor, with a nice city view and a refreshing breeze. So far I did not have to turn on the A/Cs. There is also a medium size swimming pool I have not yet tried, and a well equipped gym I will not try. I am loving the city so far. I walked north about three kilometers, the waterfront avenue and the beaches are beautiful. I was surprised by the huge number of city workers, but I guess that is because they are making improvements getting ready for the high season that is about to start. There are warnings about sharks everywhere, and therefore people is swimming only in the natural pools. It was Tuesday, and it is still the low season, there were not a lot of people. IMG_7960.mov The best beaches and the more gay friendly were towards the end of my walk. I will be back the next sunny day and report again. I did not yet walked towards the South. Unfortunately, the beautiful nature is not framing beautiful men. Compared to Rio or Salvador, where it is hard to walk for a couple of blocks with finding a lot of eye candy, Recife seems to be a disappointment so far. I walked three kilometers up and down, and saw only two guys I found attractive. (without counting the military police agents) I lost my earphones in Salvador, so I went today to the shopping mall. Huge building, spacious and labrynthic. I had to use the touch screens maps (great interface) a couple of times to find my way. For those who like malls, this is a great place to hang out and do shopping. Countless stores and good options for eating, from cheap fast food to OK quality restaurants. I just had a quick breakfast. Later I tried Thermas Boa Vista. I also got lost like in the mall. Huge sauna, the installations are very nice, but it was empty. The few guys who seemed to be GPs were not hire material for me. I stay for one hour at the bar drinking a good capiroska, and did not dare to explore much because when I check in I was told that I could be dressed only at the bar. However, I saw patrons walking around in full cloth. One of guys I talked to, who offered me massages, told me that I should try again this Friday or Saturday. Considering the lack of eye candy throughout the city so far, it looks like this is going to be good for my budget, after over expending in buys in Rio and Salvador. I will not go again to that sauna during the week, perhaps I will try tomorrow Blue Thermas without much enthusiasm.

Do you think Trump likes Native American original peoples?

The boys at Clube 11 would not stop talking about this, astonished at me, who would not stop ordering capiroskas and caipirinhas.

Yesterday was not a good day, as most Sundays in Clube 11. Perhaps this one was even worse because of the contrast with the previous day. I did a programa just to do it. Beyond that, I loved this sauna much more than I did my first time almost 10 years ago. If I end living in Rio, as I am fantasizing with, I would visit Salvador often and Club 11 would be one of the major reasons. I guess this is the last report in this thread. I just landed in Recife. See you in the other thread!

Another amazing night at Clube 11, despite the rain. I got two programas. The first one was A., a dark Black muscular guy. I am usually not into his kind, but we have been talking for weeks and he seduced me. We had never closed a deal because he was not bottoming. Today he brought a cream for his ass to help him with pain and dilatation. He delivered. Then I saw a new face, a magrinho that drove me crazy with his sexyness. First, he told me he was only top. By the end of the night, he asked me if I could wait 10 minutes. He got an enema, and delivered an amazing experiences, those that I will not easily forget. I am only sorry I am not going to see him again. We had to wait too long for a suite, so I had my first experience in a cabin. Single bed, no sheets, no bathroom, no A/C, but clean and with a ceiling fan. I guess not a good option in the summer, but today we spent a great time inside there. I was not going to go tomorrow, but I think I will be there.

New destiny, new thread. This Monday I am arriving to my new base for the following month, an airbnb in Boa Viagem, just one and a half block from the beach, nearby Parque Dona Lindu. It is going to be my first time in the city, so I would highly appreciate any wisdom other friends were willing to share. I know there are two GP saunas. Blue Thermas is at walking distance from my new base, but the info I am gathering tells me that it is not the best option. Please, correct me if I'm am wrong. The other sauna is Thermas Boa Vista, and apparently the one I should focus on. Besides the saunas, any other recommendations will be appreciated.

Yesterday, Friday, V. stopped by my place to deliver and then we went together to Clube 11. We arrived about 5:15, my first time going to the sauna so early. It was full of boys, with very few clients, but I loved seeing the place in the daylight. There is a lot of natural light, and the patrons hang out and converse before getting to the serious staff. When the time got to 6:30, the place was full and I had a blast. With V. by my side, we would call the boys I liked and have a chat/make out try. A couple of them were very tasteful, but as V. told them that I have a big dick, no one wanted to bottom for me. I ended up in a suite with V's cousin (real cousins), a beautiful 24 years old almost as perfect as V. Let's call him L. He also delivered, almost at his cousin's level, but I would give him other chances if I had time. My first time with V. was not very impressive, so perhaps L will also grow. V. shared a lot about his struggles with local clients. As I suspected, most of them do not pay 100, and many get the service for 50. There are some in between 50 and 100, but 50 seems to be the standard fee a local client is willing to pay. My popularity is easy to explain, as I am paying 150 in the sauna, and higher when they come to my place. Tonight it is going to be interesting. It is going to be probably my last night, and I will be anxious to try the few boys still not in my payroll, and at the same time overwhelmed with the attention of all the boys trying to get their last riais from me. On Monday I am moving to Recife, I will start a new thread.

I think we all are getting that bug. I did it. I am very appreciative of Brazilian pharmacists and the local meds industry. Very effective advise and drugs, and very cheap.

Finally, I went to Fox yesterday. I arrived about 6:45, and it was empty. Perhaps there was more people in the sauna, but from my table in the patio I counted no more than 6 clients and 4 GPs. None of the GPs were hirable for me, although muscle lovers would have been happy with two of them. I drank my caipiroska (very generous drink, it left me really tipsy) and 30' after arriving I was in my Uber towards Clube 11. Over there there was not much people either, but I counted at least 10 boys, three of them were in my pay roll, and of course I ended with V. in a suite, as he was there. The staff at Fox recommended me Friday or Saturday. Let's see if I find motivation for the 30' ride (I am 12' from Clube 11). I did notice how much Fox's neighborhood has changed, there are a lot of new buildings and developments. When I visited the are in 2017 most of those buildings did not exist. The sauna itself looks exactly as I remembered it.

Sometimes I carry not my passport/booklet but my passport/card. When I got my citizenship they gave me both.

No, I do not. The guys I meet in the saunas do not leave me any time to explore other sources.

On Wednesday, V. stopped by. I felt like the only decision I made was the time. When the time arrived, he commanded me to wait for him in the front (I had told him he could come up). Once we walked in (there is cameras everywhere and we have to be discrete in all common spaces, including elevators), he stamped me against the wall and deep kissed me. He asked me to show him the airbnb. He liked the balcony, so he asked me to take some pictures for his privacy account. Once he was satisfied with the photos, we sat and he pulled out a joint. I liked it and he called his dealer to buy me some. He sent me to the bedroom. He asked me to get naked, and told me he was going to take a quick shower. Once he got out of the shower, he also took control of the fuck. He delivered a hell of a fuck using everything we had already learned about each other (this was our 4th time together). He decided that I was going to cum inside of him, and I did it. He asked me to stay inside and he cummed. I could feel his ring contractions around my dick. We stayed hugging and chatting for a few minutes, until he decided to jump out of bed and clean himself. He finished closing the deal with his dealer and told me that I had to stop by the sauna the following day to get my medicine. He called his Uber, and left. This was very different than our previous fucks at the sauna, much more exploratory and with me taking over most of the time. I loved it. A masculine, smoking hot, dominant bottom is not so easy to find. It was so good that I think is inspiring me to write an ertotic story. It is also making me rethink the way I am interacting with the boys. Sometimes they come to my place and they stay hanging out for long hours. V. was impecable, no time wasted and at the same time, no rush. And no special gifts requests. I think I like much more a couple of focused hours and then being back to my solitude. Much more. We talked a lot. He is 26, has a 9 years old daughter he is rising as a single father with his grandmother's assistance (she is the nanny). He has no contact with the mother, and is currently not dating with a woman. He is still in love with a Chilean young woman he met three years ago in Rio, but the broke up one year ago. His entire tone changed when he spoke about this girl. He started to be, or try to be a content creator four months ago. He only does straight porn, and not very good quality but he promised he is working in new material. I have not yet sign up for his account, but he showed me some of the stuff on his phone. Old school independent porn, if you like that in straight version. Anyways, he asked me not share the link until he uploads more material. He seems aware of the importance to update his account frequently with good quality content. Not only he is physically perfect for my taste (I only wish he were shorter), but also intelligent. Yesterday, Thursday, was the free cabins day at Clube 11. Taking advantage of my goodies' delivery, I decided to switch plans (I was planning to go to Fox) and try my first Thursday at Clube. It was very disappointing, but I did not stay long. Perhaps the thing turned better later on. I was tired, with premium weed in my pocket, so I went back home earlier than usual, after just one drink and a few kisses with V. Las night I slept so well! I feel renewed this morning, only sad that the weather is so bad and I cannot go out. I am not sure now with the storm, but I think we are meeting again and then going together to the sauna. If the weather is nicer tomorrow, I will try Sauna Fox's Saturdays.

Today I tried my first Tuesday at Clube 11. It is the 50% discount day, but it was not populated. It actually was probably the weakest day of all my visits so far. No one new face of course. Fortunately, semi God V. was there and he delivered an amazing fuck for me. I had said before that our chemistry was not so good, well that has changed. It was amazing. I was fucking him doggy style and he would moan and call me "cachorro". Super hot. This time we trade numbers, so he will be visiting me soon. I will get his link in privacy.com, check his content and see whether or not I can recommend it. He told me the membership is only 20R.

@lookin and @Suckrates, I think we often exaggerate Trump’s responsibility for America’s divisions. To be clear, I find him abhorrent, but he is as much a symptom as he is a cause. His rise was made possible by a media ecosystem that prioritized ratings, clicks, and outrage over civic responsibility. And we shouldn’t ignore the role of Silicon Valley: algorithms have created fragmented echo chambers where we mostly see the news and opinions we already agree with. In that environment, someone like Trump didn’t just gain influence but he became inevitable. If we want to address polarization, we have to look beyond one man and confront the systems that profit from keeping us divided.

New post, but you will not have anything new if you have been following this thread https://sopla.substack.com/p/happy-anniversary-clube-11

Obrigado, @buttercawan & @Peter Parker! I do know the venue. Back in 2017/2018 I visited the place several times and loved the environment and the live music, besides the boys. I will go some time this week. Yesterday was another great day. First, I tried to join the demonstration against Bolsonaro's amnesty. I loved the crowd, but my phobia was stronger and I did not last much around. They had a huge and loud trio, and it was hard to walk. So I took a parallel street and settle at faro to wait for the rally's closing. Below, you see a clip with the demonstration's vanguard arriving to Faro, the Trio came a couple of blocks behind. I loved that I only saw red and Brazilian flags. There is a lot of talk here about the prominent displays of the US flag in pro-Bolsonaro's rallies. IMG_7682.mov Then, I went to Clube 11. I was supposed to meet with V. but he did not show up. I had been told that Sundays were not good, however the place was quite populated with the usual crowd. I saw one new face, a beautiful boy that was never alone and I failed to catch. But I met A., moreno, very nice sharp body with tasteful tattoos. I had seen him before and found him interesting but as he is in the higher end of my age preferences (30 y.o.), I did not go for him. Last night he went for me, and seduced me with his charm. We ended up in a suite and his service was satisfactory, although I would place him at the bottom of my list.

Just look at your overstatements. Trump is not a dictator. He has been democratically elected and yes, he is abusing his power, he is a wanna be dictator, but he is not yet one. The judiciary is still putting limits and he is rushing to advance his agenda because he knows that he will probably lose majority in the Congress in the next midterm elections. Your obsession with Trump, and is not only you, but this irrational obsession has only favor him. Instead of spending so much energy on hating him, perhaps it would be more productive trying to understand why his ideas are so popular. Perhaps it would be more productive to take a look at our own ideas and the policies we advocated for the last years, to understand why these policies brought us to his electoral victory. It is easy to point our finger and blame others for the current state of things, without reflecting on our own mistakes.

@Peter Parker, I am considering going to Fox, as I am starting to get bored at seeing always the same faces at Clube 11. You mentioned that Thursday is their strongest day. However, some of the GPs at Clube 11 told me that Saturday is Fox's best day. Can you share more of your wisdom about it, please? By the way, they have not posted in their IG since 2017. That is a very bad sign. Obrigado!

Respectfuly, you stay trapped in this logic of we against them, and of course we are always the good ones. If you take a close look to what people is calling "ideologies" of this crazies, it is a salad of nonsense, sometimes with ideas from both sides of the aisle. It is true that when wokeness and progressive thinking were in the rise, most of the violence seemed to come from right wing sources, because the right wing crazies were feeling powerless to fight against mainstream ideas. Now the wind has changed, right wing ideas are on the rise, and probably the ones feeling powerless to fight against mainstream will be more left wing oriented. But all they are crazies. We are letting these crazies run public discourse. We do not listen to each other any longer and quickly jump to blame, stigmatize, and insult. I know that I have done it from the Left. I think it is important to break this cycle. Rather than a deadly confrontation of Righr vs Left, rational people on both sides must find a way to talk within our differences, and together clean the conversation from hate and irrationality, from masturbatorily insulting each other in discussion forums and the street, to redirect public discourse.

Both sides are rushing to blame each other. These shooter are not republicans or democrats, leftists or right wingers. These shooters are crazies.
