My limited Portuguese would likely have me saying something distorted like "I see that you are here on schedule to sleep with me and come in exchange for this envelope of cash" ... maybe I should be out of the running as liaison.

7 days more than adequate for Bogotá. You may have seen my sight suggestions. I could not have guests in my Airbnb (it was clearly restricted), but Las Palmas love motel started at about $6USD for a surprisingly really decent room and bath for a date. There were pleasant staff around and it is for young couples without privacy at home as well as for escort trade. Classy place, though, and very welcoming of my agenda. I think they are equipped to be vigilant about the dynamics that might occur, in contrast to a regular hotel. And I am pretty sure the escort has to be let out of the premises formally on departure. Buzzed through both directions. Technically, Airbnb type homes must have a federal tourist license. I doubt mine did. I think hosts in compliance list the registration in the ad. I did not inquire. I spent 100USD for a gorgeous penthouse, likely cheaper than a decent hotel there. Certainly quieter. It was just rented out permanently; maybe the host got flack from the authorities. I do not stay in hotels. I would likely rent a room in a family home first. It is a matter of personal choice. I am a light sleeper and guests and cleaners slamming doors at all hours of day and night keeps me awake. But there are also some boutique or conventional hotel room options on Airbnb ... the distinction is becoming less clear with the cross-pollination. Maybe you intend to host non-escorts. In any event, there is no "better method" for hosting. Nobody but you can answer that question for you.

Ramon, as you may know, is in Marylebone and travelling around. Available for social get-togethers. Hard to fund the good life without subsidies.

Hmmm, white and black strippers, that really narrows it down (LOL). Probably Lohran Paixão, my second guess would be the shorter but buff Pedro Dias.

Well, Lyons (also spelled Lyon) is a good start to throw off nosy busybodies ... since it is located in s/e France near the Swiss border. However, prostitution is now illegal in France (Nordic model). A good start to confound the local Lapa constabulary, though. Officer Pereira da Silva Mendes is already nodding off or needing to check his Whatsapp,

PS: I have not had time to view the full IG account but at first glance one of the photos is a trick from Thermas. I suspect that, like many countries with relaxed attitudes and legislation, the nightclubs nevertheless are all about titillation but don’t know much about setting up infrastructure for sexy guys to make some real cash apart from stipends and small tips. Setting somebody in a chair in the middle of a crowded room for a minute of gyrating by a hot stripper? YAWN

By the stroke of midnight all strokes into my behind are behind me and I am snuggled up somewhere in L’Eixample with a hot cup of Ovaltine and my blue Truvada. In spite of my body clock being supper time. But I am more interested in the structure and setup ... “Dear Mr Joly. I live in Montreal, many gay strip clubs. The “private dances” are in a separate cubicle, no other customers sitting directly beside you. What is the structure at your club? A private area like in New York, or a small private cubicle with the dancer? Only on Friday stripper night? I like Thermas but sometimes I prefer a basic lap dance in a nice atmosphere. <R>”

Luv luv luv being spoonfed internet-sourced information. Cutting and pasting is noble and necessary, even if its utilization is dictated according to the discretion of key Board influencers. It is just happenstance that I had been aware of the essential details without being restricted as a non-American. Bring on the knowledge transmission, however dug up.

In my experience you need to be a person capable of having fun in order to recognize someone else merely generating a bit of lighthearted pleasure. I would say “have fun ignoring my ass while being obsessed with it along with furnishing both direct and oblique bumptious Tourette’s-grade commentary about my content”, but then I would be contradicting my perception of you. Ignoring you would mean forgoing the double benefit of a drugless, innocuous sleeping aid for rare bouts of insomnia while bypassing the gas-mask for as yet unneeded root canal work. What a pill. Go jump in the Lagoa ... If you dissolve, I’ll manage. (With apologies to the OP ...)

Cómplices Spá in Bogotá, apparently does have massage trade, but it may be only Fridays and Sundays. I did not get to check it out. It cannot be worse an environment than Saint Moritz.

A new ‘troll ambivalence’ emoticon proposal for the member who claims he has you on “Ignore” but remains obsessed with you ...

A debt of gratitude and shout out to DuckDuckGo and candle-burning at the Library of Congress

Some time ago one of our members posted that there might be a new bathhouse brothel built, composed, or converted from a small building or site in São Paulo by entrepreneurs he knows. I cannot find the entry but I wonder what became of that, and I thought it might be related to the structure rebuilt on the New House site. Likely a reach.

@pauleiro, what is the setup for private lap dances at Boys Bar? I would have checked it out recently but was not aware. The website refers to it, but does not clarify if is only Friday Stripper Night, and of dozens of reviews no commentators refer to private dances. If not in a private area, preferably, enclosed cubicle, I would likely take a pass. I have also Messengered the owner for details.

According to the weave of the worldwide web it is def towards the main airport from the current location

Since I last checked the Saõ Paulo scort ads, a few more recognizable gogos have branched out into that scene, including the first gogo I convinced to give me a programa on site a few years ago. What a memory! Including the strip down from military garb ... boots, camo jacket, beret and all ... in the suite. At the time I could barely fathom it.

Correction: Cine Frei is now established there at #328, I believe erotically focused.

I would not rule out 328 Frei Caneca, near HigMac, as it sits in the general area and was the site of Labirinttu's, closed (claimed = repossesed?) last December, and does not seem to have contained a new business since that time.

Yes, I also read that there were occasional males, yet not representative of the 1 in 20 you might expect based on gender demographics of sex workers.

Hold up! The big reveal coming next week ...

Too good to be true. Nice to promote equality, but Amsterdam is already overrun with tourism.

Rainbow and the hotel on which it sits are, in fact, in Consolação. However, it has been open and advertising activities steadily, so that seems inconsistent with renovations unless the venue has operated while accommodating refurbishment. I think it is wise of RPS to keep it under wraps since community activism against brothels is not unheard of ... better for it to have left the station.

Oh, you are just steps east of the wildly popular gem Bordados Peninsulares where I bought a dozen (unembroidered) high quality caps for about $7 apiece, a small fraction of northern prices. I am always losing these things but have only misplaced 2 so far, and at that price they are essentially discardable.

For my long stay last winter, I would have on my own sampled a few places but was vetoed by my people who think it is too big a hassle to hop around. This meant, of course, our choices were reduced in high season due to availability calendar dates. Due to “their” inflexibility, the deal was that I would choose and there had better not be any whining if not optimal. All in all, a good deal for the size, and ridiculously inexpensive splitting the rental rate. Electric bill around 10 bucks total 3.5 weeks. We were content. The house was in the northwesterly quadrant not far from Santiago market and just up from the top-rated boutique lodgings The Diplomat. Nevertheless, usually walked a dozen city blocks to the true Centre, or Über for 1-2 bucks ... At your door before you could barely lock up. We often walked to dinner and planned on Über home but usually changed our minds to walk off dinner. Über was so cheap I took it to the 2 separate bus stations south/east quadrant to purchase ahead of time cheap tickets to various excursion choices. (Tom, the house 78 and 51, near the 49 bus.) Neighbours either side in non-reno’d homes. Four cock-a-doodle-doo fighters raised on one side along with a pitbull also bred for dog-fighting. Sweet older lady other side who held a spare key in case we locked ourselves out by accident. Motorcycle gang (harmless) nearby. Convenient Thunder Gym 10 minutes on foot. There was an absolutely gorgeous new B&B on the corner. Interesting mix of upscale and run-down buildings. A few meat and produce kiosks in a residential zone and an OXXO convenience. On my own could have “ho”-sted without impediments ... the “manager” seen just once, and only to bring a new toaster oven we requested following self-serve lockbox check-in. Unforeseen issues that may arise: We were lucky but you could end up nearby a very noisy gut-and-reno; they are ubiquitous and scattered throughout. For a long stay you would want to vet the neighbourhood. Who wants hours of banging and hammering while trying to chillax by the pool or sleep late, nap in a courtyard hammock, etc? Incessantly yapping dogs. Other visitors in the area complained about their otherwise tranquil setting disrupted by constant barking from adjacent yards. We had the roosters crowing noisily a lot but no canines. Poorly controlled miniature ant infestation ... swarms in your kitchen requiring complete sealing of foodstuffs. We had this annoyance but nearby locals said it was not uncommon. Our manager claimed it had been recently fumigated. We got accustomed to it, and keeping counters free of any iota of sweet stuff seemed effective. One droplet of pancake syrup would have a long lineup of these little buggers climbing up to feast.

Mind you, the place is no longer cozy because it was ripped down, the land sold, and a new (cozy? unlabelled?) 2-story structure built. Hmmmmm ... got to give the ansiosos a little something to chew on, right?
