I have not been in Colombia in two years. Ask in Gayguides.com.

As a foreigner student, nowadays in the US you will have more chances to be deported if you are politically active in any group critic of the US and Israel policies than if you discretely escort. Be quiet and you will be fine.

Last night I had a first approach to the infamous Bangu sauna. The place looks filthy and falling in pieces (much worst than any other similar establishment I've been to), and I LOVED IT. The boys I saw were mostly favela hotties, from thin to soccer athletic perfect bodies, and all very nice and friendly. I did not perceive any dangers. Unfortunately it was rainy and cold. The friend who went with me told me that usually there are three times the boys we had last night. I would say that perhaps there were 15 boys available, all of them over dressed because of the cold weather. We were also uncomfortably cold, so we left after about 90 minutes. I did not explore the rooms areas and stayed the entire time at the main floor, a wide and open space with a bar, a kitchen, tables, chairs, a pool table, and a pool. I liked the boys' approaching style. They were not at al aggressive as their colleagues at 202 and 117. They would look for making eyes contact and would only approach if you sustained their sight. Some of them were extremely tempting. I talked to one of them who also was a top, and I also liked that once it was clear we were not a match, he did not keep insisting on negotiating a programa as they do inmate other saunas. One con I could see is traveling there in Uber. Two drivers canceled when I was trying to go there, three when I was trying to leave. The issue is that the establishment is right at the boundary of a favela with bad fame, and sometimes the drivers avoid the area. I liked a lot the atmosphere and several of the boys and will be back with better weather. Once I complete a full visit, I will write a full report

Yep, tickets are crazy. But get your economy plus seat and come over. The boys have to pay their rent these days, and this is a clients market.

Do not fly business! The economy plus service is not that bad. It would be great an August reunion at Point!

LOL. I came back to the thread and the list went longer.

Yep, I've been there several times but I am not a fan of nudist beaches. The only bodies I like to see naked are the ones I want.

I started my slow traveling experience in Rio. I am here since last Monday. As my priority this time is not the saunas, I rented an apartment in Recreio dos Bandeirantes, with a nice beachfront balcony. I cannot recommend this neighborhood more for those looking for tranquility. It is far away from the Copa and Ipanema party and overcrowded atmosphere. Even better, my rent is in the strip between Posto 12 and Pedra da Macumba, where the main avenue runs one block away from the beach. The front of the building opens to the Avenue, the back opens to a ciclovia with no cars traffic. It is an area full of surfers with a neo hippie vive, and plenty of small cafes and bars, and everything much more affordable than the most popular and touristic areas. Of course, if you are looking to spend your time in Point, 117 and Meio Mundo, you will have more than one hour of Uber to get to your destination, and then to return. You can improve this time a little by avoiding the worst of rush traffic and taking your Uber to Jardim Oceanico and then the metro, but I have not yet tried this trick. The one sauna that is closer is Casa Grande Boite, the infamous Bangu's place, but it would also be a 45' ride. In general, this week seemed to be plenty of garotos in the saunas, with a shortage of clients. I visited 117 last Tuesday and got a OK programa. I will not go again in this trip, when I was close it was OK visiting even if I am not a fan, but now it is definitely not worthy the long ride. On Wednesday I went to 202 and, as usual, had an amazing time, with a programa who still has me mouthwatering. I could have hire more than one garoto, the ambience was generous. I went again yesterday, Friday, but for a birthday party. I was not looking for a programa, but the boys were eagerly available. On Wednesday, when I was at the bar resuscitating after my programa, I made acquaintance with a local client. When I told him that I was planning to go to Bangu, he opened his eyes like two fried eggs, and recommended me not to go by myself. Then, on Thursday at my place, I was hanging out with one of my regulars. When I asked him about the place, he commented that it was full of "bandidinhos" with their ankle trackers on. But of course, I do like bandidinhos. Fortunately, a friend from Gayguides provided me with the connections to find a partner for the expedition. This partner, an expat, loves the place. So I will share my impressions after our expedition tomorrow, but it seems it may be so good that Point may have competition as the number one on my heart. I will be in Rio until September 4th. Do not expect detailed reports as in the past, but I will share some info now and then. If anyone is around, hit me up with a DM.

Another pearl from LPSG

I’ll be honest: I know my sarcasm and my low tolerance for certain opinions and mindsets—and yes, even certain forum members (after all, I’ve been here a long time)—sometimes get the better of me. @CheckCar I’m sorry if my posts have affected your enjoyment of the forum. I can’t promise it won’t happen again; old habits die hard, and I have a confrontational streak. But I am working on it, and I’ll keep trying to do better. There’s no magic fix for the kind of tension we see online (and which is spreading also to the "real" world) these days. But I believe it starts with each of us choosing to do better, listening to others, and taking feedback seriously. As some members have rightly pointed out, you do have tools. First, try not to give too much energy to the loud minority (yes, I might be part of that group sometimes). Second, make use of the ignore feature if someone is consistently ruining the experience for you. This space is what we make of it

If your goal is hiring for sex, I recommend the usual cities in Brazil, specially the GP saunas.

Were you asking for advice or our opinion? I do not think so. Thank you for this personal and beautifully written vignette. I love how you generously share your fear, your hesitation, your infatuation. Some here may think that you were a loser in this situation. Who knows? I praise your courage to show yourself far away from the confident and self assuring player some here portray to be.

You know I do not pray, but I am really, really wishing he is ok. With all my strength.

Perhaps US escorts should follow Sister Hong's lead and accept groceries as payment. However, I am sure they would become abusive anyways and dare to demand two dozens of eggs.

Of course, from LPSG's legendary thread, 604 pages and still growing.

Certainly, we make you uncomfortable.

Haggling is pretty much standard in most of South America. I dare to say it is standard in most of the world out of Europe and the US/Canada.

I understand the models have to enter manually their age. I do not think he is intentionally cutting his, I bet you he just reposted the ad without updating the content. I do not know what is worse, lying about your age or being careless about your professional representation.

I would systematically hunt dancers in Buenos Aires in my golden years. My favorite ones were from the Teatro Municipal General San Martin (contemporaneous dance), followed by the hotties from the Teatro Colon (classic). Currently, I have kind of a crush on this beautiful, and extremely talented Brazilian dancer: Jônatas Itaparica (@jonatasitaparica_) • Instagram photo WWW.INSTAGRAM.COM 16K likes, 652 comments - jonatasitaparica_ on May 6, 2023: "Imagina a gente.. 💭 . . . . . . #boy #sp #explore".

It may have happened last night. There is nothing in Str8upGayPorn. He is such a big name in my porn library, and he is going away unnoticed. I met him once, many years ago. It is true what the comments say, he was a very nice and sweet man.
