At 117, they always quote me R$300 for some reason. Ok I barely speak Portuguese and if I do, there's clearly an American accent. I do haggle for that R$150 price but the lowest I could get them to go is R$200. Honestly I'm ok with paying R$300 if I had a great time with them before. but if it's my first time with that GP, I usually play the haggle game for a few minutes. One of them finally did agree to R$150 when they saw me 1.5 hours later but I was already done and had my fun with another GP so I politely declined. I think it's all about timing. Afterwards if I genuinely liked their company, I usually treat them to a drink and snacks at the cafe in 117.

I'm curious how he became a garoto. Let us know what you think of it. Ages ago I read this book called memoirs of a hoebag about a gay man in NYC talking about all his hookups while he was in his 20s.

Just sharing my experience. I used the official brazil.vfsevisa.com site. I took a selfie of myself using my iPhone and then uploaded it to the site... then used the site's photo tool to fix it (make the background white and place my head and shoulders to the center. I had issues uploading the bio page of my passport. I scanned it to my laptop and then uploaded it but it wouldn't accept it. Size was 1.9MB. From reading on reddit, some people stated to make the size less than 600KB. I changed the size to roughly 550KB and miraculously the Brazil evisa site accepted my passport bio page! Two business days later, I received an email accepting the eVisa application and instructions on printing out 2 copies to bring with me to Brazil. Note I didn't submit any bank account information and my visa application was still accepted. Total price was $80.90. If your eVisa cost more, then most likely you're using a visa service with an added fee. Overall I'm ok with this since I recall back in 2011 I had to physically go to the Brazil consulate in NYC to submit my paper application for a 10-year multientry tourist visa costing me around $250. It was for Rio Olympic games in 2016 when Brazil stopped requiring visas to US passport holders.
