Blundy:

"But there are plenty of Russian men hanging around those same bars and clubs in the hope of ensnaring susceptible Western women."

Yeah right.

- I have been to Emporio's last Tuesday. It's in the Ferrada neighbourhood. Crowded but rather snobby if you don't speak Portuguese. Crowd thinks they are the shit because the beer is R$4 rather than...

on monday night, i arrived early at balneario the companhia (i told the taxi driver balneario da cia but he just stared at me. little did i know that cia is simply the abbreviation...

SUNDAY NIGHT.

Sunday night was a disappointment. I went out in the sort of peacock style that works well in places like London or Moscow (pinstripe hat, slim tie, jacket, crocodile-skin shoes to...

SATURDAY NIGHT.

Having started late already, the first place I went to (Companhia do forró) appeared to be closed, so he recommended a place called Maloka as the nearest alternative. By the time...

FRIDAY NIGHT.

After a 40-hour trek by plane from the Ukraine (compounded by cancellations and late arrivals) a tired, but enthusiastic SlutLover arrived in Manaus on Friday night. 10 December and,...

This is a quick comment. I'll write a full report soon. I'm still there.

Certainly a good place for non-pros (4 one-night stands in 7 nights out with three weeks' Portuguese, didn't try any day...

Much more Dengue fever is expected this season than last. Article (in Portuguese, by the Ministry of Health) detailing the levels of Aedes agypti infestation in various major Brazilian cities (Aedes...

Mentioned in earlier posts. Is this hotel girl-friendly?
As always, your help is very much appreciated.

This isn't necessary a question of fundamentals - the gold price isn't, either. There's little value to gold except that it shines and that it's small enough to put in your safe. It's just that the...

Arriving in Manaus 10 Dec, planning to stay in Brazil for several months.

First beer on me as always.

Sperto, I think you indicated in an earlier post that Manaus has daytime forró on the weekends. Where can I find those clubs? Your (excellent) yearly update doesn't seem to mention them.

Aren't forró clubs a third way? Do girls there think I'm only there to get their phone number?

I didn't say the poster should state if they are ugly. That would be slightly preposterous. :) All I'm saying is that the relative ease of scoring a non-pro must be put into context. A good-looking...

Some questions on Manaus (I was thinking of spending a few months there, perhaps also in Rio Branco and Porto Velho from Dec). Hope you can help with these.

1) How bad is the rain during rainy...

4th-5th December or November? I'm confused.

Folks, I live in Kiev these days. If you happen to be around write me a PM.

I have been to KaZantip this year. Totally overrun with foreigners. I saw young, good-looking guys crash and burn on a regular basis. If you go there for the party, fine, and if you speak good...

Don't overpay, guys.
Call 309 (Absolut Plus Taxi) and they'll even call you back. 25 Grivni up to 6 km, 30 Grivni up to 10 km and 2.60 grivni/km beyond that - in other words, 30 Grivni will get you...

I'm also shoked at the realy poor English. Becos good English really help.

Gentlemen,

I love Kiev.
On Saturday night, I went to Shooters at 1 am in my trademark hat, got picked up from the bar within 15 minutes by a hot girl without even moving my arse, and between 2...

Kazantip parties? KaZantip is at the other end of the Crimea, close to the villages of Popovka and Mirny, which themselves are close to Yevpatoriya.
There is the Kazantip peninsula but the last time...

I've yandexed it. Seems the new place is called Deep Dishes Casual Café and is a restaurant by day.
