I just wanted to add that it is fairly easy and straightforward to hookup with one guy from CB, Grinder, Hornet..etc in Colombia. BUT, it takes a certain personality and social skills to develop the connection from one guy to his circle of friends, or to the studio/sauna owners, managers. A lot of things just happen naturally if you have the personality and skills. AND @numazu1 is 36 years old, many years younger than a lot of members on this forum.

However, the airfare to Brazil is not cheaper at all.

I just returned from Brazil two days ago. I didn't get the vaccine in Brazil since I was too busy there. And I was afraid the vaccine may seriously weaken my body while I was drinking, partying and sexing most of the days there. Perhaps I should set aside a whole week for vaccine recovery time on my next trip.

Sorry but I am a little confused. Are you back in the USA now and this diary is from the past? I thought this is a real time event.

Bae#1: he has no abs definition, and he is bald. I will skip. Bae#2: he is cute, but I can't see his chest in the picture. I may hire him after seeing his chest. Bae#3: tattoos!! No no no!! Bae#4: cute face, nice body definition. Yes, I will hire him.

OP said he had done research online.

Me too. The subject of pricing has been well discussed in other threads before. One knowledgeable fellow poster also pointed out before that the price has not changed for years. There is really no need to start a thread for "2018" pricing, unless....well, OP's intention to pay the absolute minimum is quite obvious.

My debates between hotels and Airbnb is not about safety or guest policy. It is more about the quality of the room/apartment. 3/4 star hotel have clean white towels, white sheets, pillow and duvet, whereas Airbnb may give you dark color towels and sheets etc. Some are well worn. I always wonder how clean or how new these dark brown towels are. One time I rented an Airbnb apt in Sao Paulo. There was an awful smell of urine near or under or inside the bed, what can you do? NOTHING. You can not take a picture of urine smell and send to airbnb, can you? But if you are at a hotel, you can certainly go down to front desk and resolve the issue. And don't forget about bed bugs, hotels have professional team to deal with this kind of issue, I doubt individual airbnb host ever bother to check for bed bugs. In addition, airbnb don't give you the exact address until you confirm and pay for the booking. Well... one block difference can be heaven and earth in some cities. And I could never understand why they won't show address as part of listing. Perhaps to avoid some legal issues? So why would I participate in a businesses in the dubious borderline legality? To me, the only advantage for Airbnb is price. If I want to stay in an area where hotels are much more expensive than airbnb , I will choose airbnb. But since airbnb has becoming quite popular, their price are mostly in line with the hotels in certain touristy cities.

Yes it was a big parade party, unfortunately the weather turned cold and cloudy, with some drizzle since Saturday night. There were a lot of people at the Sunday parade, but very few guys took shirts off.

Their go go boys are completely naked and have erection or semi-erection most of the time. BUT, the facial expression is cold and unfriendly, never any smile and they don't even pretend to be happy there on their face. I suppose it's the culture with Mexican gogo boys, you rarely see them smile. And, there is not much interaction between the gogo boys and customers other than occasionally one customer slip a bill into their socks. The last time I was there in March, there were some Chinese tourists both males and females, they looked at the gogoboys with blank faces as if they were in a zoo watching alien animals and they took pictures...it was a very strange vibe. As far as the dark room for the customers, yes it is fairly active, but all customers there are fully clothed, and mostly mid age or older and not in good shape. I am a frequent visitors to Brazil, so I have to compare everything with Brazil, and of course Brazil wins.

Mexico city and Merida are two totally different vibes.

Duplicate.

From my observation. Tomcal is a social person (not an introvert), white (a big preference in Mexico), Top (a big preference in gay world), spend money on boys (stick to his budget and rules), speak passable Spanish and Portuguese. Travel to Brazil a few time a year, so he is semi-local, which makes it easier to continue his connections with locals from previous trips.

Yes, last night at the club, when a brazilian song started, I had tears in my eyes. Back home I listened to this song all the time. I had no idea what it meant. But I feel the emotion when the song played at the club here and people sang along. I am so alive and happy when I am in Brazil.

Therefore, I conclude the info in the above article is more accurate. I will also advise not to obtain a CPF unless you have a real need for it. Read the "identity theft” paragraph in the above article.

I just obtained my CPF number at the Receita Federal in Sao Paulo. They printed and gave me a Xerox copy of the CPF card on the spot only, not the real card.

I love Envy. The whole club is for people to Envy!! Show offs, lookers, drink expensive cocktails or bottle services. When in Rome, do like a Rome. So I put on my Prada moon glasses (to hide wrinkles), black shoulder strips Calvin Ceins tight hoodie, zipped down half way to show of my cleavage. tight Levis jeans, and complete with a pair of black leather boots. And I mixed in the crowd very well. Handsome people stared at me constantly. I had fun.

BB show bar-- 150 pesos to get in (one free drink coupon). A few topless guys sit around trying to make eye contact with customers. There is one guy i like and loooked a couple times. He approached me immediately and started flirting, showing off penis..etc. he first asked 1500, then quickly come down to 500 pesos for 25 minute private time in the tiny back cabin. He said he will do anything, i said I just want to see you masterbat yourself and see your leche come out. He said ok. He has a lot of leche. Demand money upfront before everything starts. But 20 minutes into the program he is still rubbing his cock and ask me to put on condom on him so he can fuck me. I suppose their standard routine is for the boy to penetrate the customer for a few minutes and that's all. At the end I called if off althought I have pay 500 pesos, but the promise was not delivered. The whole thing feel cheap and scamming. The boy didn't give me what we have agreed for the pricehe speak English and we used Google translate a few times there is no misunderstanding. BTW, the quality of boys is so bad, can not compare to Brazil.

I am heading home after the gay pride parties in SP this weekend. Things are becoming rather unpleasant here now.

One way to cope with post Brazil syndrome is to start planning your next trip to Brazil. This is what I did many years ago on my initial trip to Rio. At the end of the trip I booked another trip for 2 weeks later. But of course one would have to be flexible with time and money for this to happen.

Straight guys usually prefer fucking you from your back so he doesn't see your front. Gay guys can do any positions.

And me too

This is becoming a real inconvenience now. Uber is more expensive now because of greater demand. The hotel (4 star) just informed me today they are under-staff now because some people can not get to work. My room did not get cleaned today. There was a note under my door saying clean towels and shampoo/soap will be provided upon request. The room service (food) this evening finally came 1.5 hour after ordering, and I ordered salad and hamburger!! I don't think I will enjoy my stay in Brazil if things get even worse. My Brazilian friend told me this situation is politically motivated. There is an election coming up.

I don't mind the flight cancellation.

It would nice if the poster can share what line of occupation he is in Brazil.
