510guy

I am a bit surprised as to the level of distaste for him. I did see him 6 years ago for 4 hand. Thought it was an okay massage. My guess was he was about early 30. If those are his pics they are outdated but I did think he was a good looking guy but his partner was better looking but I don't think he is around anymore.

And this guy is for hire too. Been tempted to try him. He is the only one I have noticed in the Asian section that is for hire.

And the Karl rave continues. I haven't seen him in maybe 5 months, I guess time for another appointment.

Thanks for the tips. A couple of places I plan to go, some I never heard of so I will add to my list. I plan to get a pocket Wi-Fi rather than international sim. Yup, JR rail pass is the plan. It is amazing how many little cultural nuances there are including don't walk and eat, very little trash cans but also very little littering.

Thanks for all the tips. We may be able to catch the cherry blossoms in Tokyo, looks like we are too early for Osaka.

Good question. I am a foodie so I wanted to be near the street food off dotonburi and the night life. But using Osaka more as a base. Plan to take train out to Kyoto twice and venture into nara, kobe, and possibly hiroshima.

Yes I am. I figured you were too but I also know SF East Bay is not the only area that refers to itself as the East Bay.

Thanks guys. I will be staying in the Shinjuku region in tokyo and namba in osaka. If I go alone to the spots may try those. But I have a friend traveling with me who has no interest in being naked in front of others but may try to get him to go to a place to relax to try them out. I honestly am not comfortable being naked but I will probably get used to it. I am Asian and no tatoo so I don't look like a foreigner

@FurryDude thanks so much. Not really looking for action, just nice "views" would be nice. Yes, I heard about sentos. I guess my terminology is a little confused. I heard about one place in Osaka that charges you based on age! Older you are more you pay

So going to Japan next month. Interested in going to an onsen (bathhouse, springs) are they mostly older men in those? I have been to the "springs" in US which can be cruisy. Are they like that in Japan or are these such a way of life that being naked in front of others is no big deal. Any good ones near Osaka or Tokyo anyone would recommend. Not interested in ones where men/women will be mixed.

I actually liked him the second time around. But I can see him being the "mileage may vary type". He was a pretty nice guy and a B massage. But I can see how he can come across as arrogant to some. Personally, I like the hunky Asian type so he is up my alley so I would go back but I can see why others may put him down.

I have seen this guy twice for a massage, I don't get why he keeps changing name since I think he can choose what reviews gets posted. I think he knows some of the negative things about him but he has not been really talked about lately.

Well, we know what a fan you are of Karl so if you haven't already you going to try him out for us?

Looks intriguing, do tell if you partake please

Did you happen to hear back?

I normally go on carrentals.com and see the prices for various companies. If say Avis has the best deal then I will go to Avis website to try to book for better price or just to book direct. Whether it be hotel or car rental better to book direct but use third party more to do a search. There is fine print in third party sites that a hotel can cancel your reservation without notice. Also, the time of pick up matters greatly. Add 1 hour and you may find the price change. When. I went to Boston I needed a car around 6am. I put in 7 am and my rental for the week was $100 more than putting 6am. My guess is 7am starts the peak pick up time. Off peak pick up hours seems to matter.

Email just does not seem to work anymore. I deal with a lot of 30's and under and they just don't email anymore or that gets lower priority than text. Emails get filled with spam, promos, bills, etc.

This reminds me of a funny story. I added a friend of mine (male) to my Verizon account with a new number. For the first week he kept getting calls from men asking for Stacy (or some ladies name). He told me about it a week later and I Google it. It brought me to a Craigslist add for a female escort. So somehow his number was associated with a female escort and was getting calls. He obviously switched numbers and I toyed with him and used a number he did not know to ask for Stacy on his new number and he got freaked out.

When talking about this on sports radio, it was mentioned that sometimes ballplayers will stay at agents home rather than at hotel.

Yes same guy. You will find mixed reviews on this guy if you search "tattooasian". The pic with backpack is more accurate. The rest are about 5years old.

I have not seen but I have been told he can get sensual and pic accurate. But his pictures just portray strictly therapeutic so I have not tried since he seems to go out of way to portray that tought

Saw him a couple of times when he lived in SF. In terms of massage he is very good. In terms of extras; mileage may vary. He is a talented masseur but extras don't back on it, it depends. Pictures may be a bit out of date, probably around 40.

I tried it at SF, all men. I am not one to be naked in front of people so I was hesitant. But after about 10 minutes I sort of stopped caring. Though some of the poses were a bit to exposing for my taste. And I admit I couldn't let go of the thought that what if someone farted in front of me. You never know what your body will do with those poses.

@poolboy48220 is right tough. I don't hire for escort service, only sensual/erotic massage. The short but not always correct answer: Sensual: you can be naked and I will probably touch your groin area. I may allow you to touch me but I it depends. I will be in my underwear but I may take it off if you ask but I may charge extra. Don't try to cross the line though as I may have to tell you back off Erotic: it depends on my mood and what I think of you but I only advertise erotic to get more people interested. I will probably be nude but only respectful touching. A HE is probably included but don't expect to jerk me. I also may escort but don't expect to short change me by asking for erotic massage prices if you plan to go farther. Is this always true? No.

When I saw him doing this while I was in shower (door was open) my first thought was that is odd, why is he touching my clothes. Then I realized that was a simple kind gesture that makes you remember and appreciate the little details and that he does not think of clients as just someone hiring him but as a valued customer.
