Yes, Peruvian Maca works. You can get it as a cheap powder in many health food stores in Brazil. Just mix a teaspoon into a juice or tea and you will feel the effects in a few hours. However, taken...

I was back in Rio recently. Stopped by centro low cost dives, such 59 Rua the Carioca. Women said it was R22. I did not partake but will try it one day. The problem for me is the close quarters. Too...

Balcony is closed. Lots of the women are at Mab's now. Even during the day.

By the way, anybody know if the centro casas (URG 24 or BA 80) will be open next weekend (14th) during Carnival?

More true than even you might think. One reason I always felt safe in termas and centro casas was I knew gangs controlled much of the activity. Ever noticed how orderly things are among the patrons...

Yes, ATL and RIO are sister cities. The city goes out of its way to make Brazilians feel welcome. Plus, the large Afro-descended population makes Brazilians feel more at home than other areas (DC is...

Ibn Buttita,

Another mongering spot is Tijuana, Mexico. The prices are VERY cheap. $20 / max on the street and around $60 for an hour for a club girl.

Plus you can always stay in San Diego, as...

Since you do not like crowds, I assume you do not want to go to the Sambodromo during Carnaval proper.

However, there is still a way to see the Sambodromo.

Today is the last day to go to the...

I see your point. But I also noticed that she has her privacy settings set pretty well. She has obviously chosen what she wants people to see. On the other hand, I would not post her information. But...

Don Juan used to be a hot spot in the 80s! I went there around 88 or 89. A cab driver took me.

When I walked in there were girls dancing on stage to that song "I GOT the Power!"

It was very...

Oh, yeah, the overland trains are the ones that have non-fare paying people "surfing" on the top of the rail cars and hanging on the sides and back!

Prices in Rio are another thing.

Yes things are more expensive.

I was in centro too and did not notice anything different. True, for some reason unknown lots of Urg. Station vendors shut down between 7 and 8pm. I actually had one DVD seller close shop and walk...

I posted a trip report with a warning about floor 2 of BA 85, but it got deleted or I had it deleted as it was informative and, thus, caused the usual flame war with the guys who believe they own...

I will delete this post later, but I have learned something about losing money in Rio:

I have lost money twice when in Rio. Once I lost the money to pay my driver on the way to the airport and...

Hi Putya,

Yes, many gringos want a BBBJ but many do not want one from a Brazilian hooker.

My main point is that guys are talking about BBBJ as if every guy wants one and as if the girls not...

yeah, i always take wet ones with me to centro.

the guy on floor two can be an asshole. he is ok with me when i first arrive in town but i always manage to [CodeWord140] him off. he always seems...

Guys say this all the time to imply that the girls give BBBJ to guys they think are clean. But I know girls in BA 85 who do not offer me BBBJ, and I never asked, but they will kiss me on the mouth. ...

Ahh, now that provides some hope.

And Bahia is a beautiful area with lots of cultural sites.

I think more of us should try to go there, especially since Rio may become too crazy with the...

Two things here:

1. How do you know what I am not aware of? That is a rude comment.

2. And, it makes little sense to say that "it seems most Brazilians have an idea how to behave." Then whom...

Prosal,
Perhaps the increase in tourism will not be so bad. I beleive the increase will only occur in specific areas. There will still be untapped markets in Brazil. Do not give up yet!

When I...

I am not flaming. There are just few gringos in centro casas. So our focus on the actions of a few of the few who might cause problems needs discussion. People can read these posts and begin to...

back in 2004 or 2005 or so Brazil Specialist first posted a rundown on the centro casas. A few of us used the information but there was no deluge of gringos in centro.

To most gringos going to...
