Rio de Janeiro Reports

[LivingFossil]

Are some nightclubs allowed open late, past 10:00 p. Pm. ? What is monger scene like? Beaches open? Red-light districts open and safe? Anyone with inside knowledge who could share would be greatly appreciated. Been looking online and I cannot find concrete info on what regulations are in place in Rio.

Yes please someone, I have been reading conflicting reports online on what's open what's not. What happening in Lapa?

I was also wondering what area of Rio is best for mongering, as in close to the street girls or easy for escorts to get to, or is Rio mostly about the Termas?

I was in Rio a few years ago in Ipanema but did not monger but I remember thinking I should have got a place near Lapa as that's where all the night life was.

I am not on the ground. From good sources Solarium and T65 have been open since July; I received the attached flyers in emails or received in WhatsApp. T65 is also under new management, one of the managers from 4 x4 is some sort of owner / partner.

Cancun is now apparently called New York and will open Monday, August 3rd. It seems like masks are required in main room.

No news on 4 x4, Centaurus or Monte Carlo.

Monte Carlo reopened on August 4th. Centaurus has reopened from 3 pm-11 pm everyday except Sunday.

I will be depending a lot on trip reports to decide whether to travel to Brazil. So I hope mongers go to Brazil in their numbers and if you all come back healthy I will consider a trip of my own.

Now that is asking mongers to possibly make the ultimate TOFTT LOL but I'm going in January come what may (unless the airports are closed again of course).

Thank you!

I was just about to post a question regarding Termas. Can anyone with boots on the ground add any more intel regarding if any other Termas are open. Sorry I'm a newbie to Rio, will be my first time. I was going to go to Sao Paulo, but it seems that all the restaurants are closing at 5 PM. I thought Rio would be a safer first time place for me. If all else fails I saw a YouTube Vid that showed the beach was open. I'm not sure how long that will last, but hey, this is a fluid time and we just have to make the best choices with what info we got. Thanks for your help if you decided to comment / Post because it really helps people do a little research before we arrive.

That's a valid point. I for sure can say that I wouln't want to become seriously sick in Brazil right now, and especially when hospitals are overwhelmed with Covid patients. Also, if the purpose is to go to Brazil to monger, there is no way to do that and at the same time practice social distancing, so it would come with a certain risk. Staying home is a better situation where social distancing also is easier to maintain.

You guys are absolutely of no help to me in my quest to convince myself to begin travelling again and start banging some luscious Brazilian beauties.

Yep, that too, unless you're expert at this.

Actually, 2200 reais is less than 450 USD a month at the current 5. 19 rate.

I found it through this board!

Vagabundo, do you mind saying how you found this apartment? Rates at the hotel are about US $66 a night, or about US $2,000 per month. Did you have a connection, or did you find it on AirBnB? I looked at some listings, which had maps, so finding the Transamerica would be a matter of sifting through the listings.

Another one would be asking yourself what if.

What if I do get sick and need medical attention. Which country would offer a better chance of survival?

It's not only about the comparative strengths of the 2 health care systems, but the mere fact that we've been at it longer and gotten better at treating the disease.

I would absolutely prefer to be in the US if I needed medical attention. Which is making me second guess my trip to Brasil this winter.

I've been in Transamerica for a month. It is great.

First, thanks for this post, and thanks for this network.

Cost is 2200 r per month. Awesome 22nd floor view on the veranda of barra coastline.

Logistics are a bit more distanced. 343 bus from central / centro goes to Metro Jardim Botanica. Proprietary bus from Transamerica (395 Av Gastao Senges) goes straight to cinelandia / US Consulate hourly from 0610 to 2000. Uber of course, 50 r to most spots in zona sul.

The working girls are outstanding! This is literally a working girl-tel!!

The hottest working girls from Sao Paulo to Minas Gerais come here. To working girl.

The working girl doctor (plastic surgeon) here is my buddy. How's that for inside baseball.

I wifed up my favorite negra and she is giving me all her holes bare, we are tested, and I'm happy. But of course, I sneak off the the working girls on the other floors.

Some residents here wife up a working girl 24/7 and just lay in bed.

Will send some more ho pics soon.

Going from the no. 1 country affected by covid 19 to the no. 2 does not seem all that bad.
