Rio de Janeiro Reports

[The Cane]

If you are worried about your cards being cloned, use Apple pay or similar. My last trip I used it for all the payments except the girls I paid with cash.

More and more is pay by tap these days, so far less concerns about cloning. I have been virtually cash free in the States over the last three years! On a mongering trip I would want to have plenty of cash to pay the girls. I pull that from ATMs from a reputable bank like Bradesco from a safe environment (enclosed setting off of the street). I typically will have enough on me that I will just go ahead and pay for meals, drinks, and any other relatively small costs with cash as well. Bigger costs like the hotel bill go on a credit card. But as long as we're tapping any fear of cloning can be dismissed.

[Nordico]

I only have 2 debit cards. I defaulted on all my credit card debt during the pandemic. Seemed like a good time to screw the banks. That being said, I have never used my cards in 15 years of mongering at restaurants, stores, or hooker places like termas or casas. Only used them at ATM machines and hotels when I check in. So far no fraud from using at those 2 places. Want to branch out this trip and rely less on ATM withdrawal and cambios. I can separate checking from savings, so I can transfer money from savings to checking as needed.

I think its a hint to show some photos of this marvellous breast-laden beauty.

I always shared photos of babes' big booties during my trips to SP. It would be nice to see some bountiful boobies.

Can anyone comment on June or July in Rio regarding weather, beaches, parties, termas, prives, etc? Wondering if it is worth it to go in these months?

[Vagabundo1]

Not only are Mosaico rooms pretty clean, there is actually a Elisa Sanches Suite!

Senor Cane and Senor Vagabundo often spar in this August forum, but we have both fucked Elisa Sanches!

Furthermore, the genius thing about Mosaico is that all the tier 1 Zona Sul terma girls have a depreciating ass-et, and if they don't get a bratwurst up their ass by midnight at 4 x 4 or Solarium, they go to Mosaico to put their ass's on sale by 50%, meaning the same ass you could fuck at 4 x 4 for 400 will be 200 at Mosaico -- after midnight, as Clapton sang about.

But nota bene, if you look like Clapton in this video, ie, a old dude, you might not be best advised to go to Mosaico. Or you might want to go in a group. Because the bitches are looking for young dick, young lean Carioca dudes, who wear Vasco shirts. The Military Police are carrying FN-FAL's with para folding stocks in 7. 62 (sete meia dois) NATO, and they come up to the rails and they get numbers from the girls too. It is no country for old men.

That said, the best quality 18 year old 4 x 4 girls go to Mosaico / VM because it is the border line between rich zona sul and poor zona norte.

I recommend 116 first to get acclimated to the more extreme environ of Mosaico. And wear a vasco shirt. If you are some prima donna who is too worried about sand in your shoes to go to the beach, then wash the fucking sand out of your pussy lips and stay at home.

Sorry for the late reply. This thread is pretty active and harder to keep up with for me. Mosaico rooms were actually pretty clean with ac. Only issue is no shower in the room. They have a shower available tho.

I don't think it's necessary just call the uber after you get through customs and immigration. I didn't have to wait long at all. You have to go upstairs to the second floor if I remember correctly. The taxis are all on the 1st floor.

I went to the second floor and the wi fi wasn't working to call an Uber. I ended up paying 20 bucks to the taxi which would have got me an Uber black car. Maybe this trip the Wi-Fi at the airport is fixed. Is is 2023, you would think they would get their head out of their asses by now.

I use my credit cards at all restaurants, grocery stores, hotels, uber rides, and termas in RJ and all restaurants, grocery stores, hotels, clinicas, and boates in SP. I have never been ripped off. On extremely rare occasions (like once every 3 or 4 years) I might see a fraudulent charge on my account. I report it to the bank, they freeze the account, remove the charge, and I move on to different credit card until I go home. So where is the risk? There is none.

Debit cards are another story. I am very careful in the use of my debit cards. I never use them for purchases. I bring many CC's with me on a trip, but I only bring 2 debit cards. My main debit card is issued by Schwab. I only use my Schwab debit card to withdraw cash from my Schwab checking account. I only use ATM machines inside the 2 major Brazilian banks and 5-star hotels. All ATM fees and bank charges are reimbursed to my Schwab account at the end of the month. I also carry a backup debit card issued by Needham Bank (which is zero ATM fees as well) just in case something happens to my Schwab debit card like it is stolen, lost, or destroyed. Cash is for the girls and those rare situations where a CC is not accepted.

They who? I always use my card at restaurants. I do not use cash. Why would you pay with a card at a termas when they will add an extra fee? You guys make traveling and fucking hookers out to be the most complicated things.

The termas charge a fee for cards? My bank doesn't charge a international fee which is why I want to use it at all the termas instead of taking out from the ATM. If that's the fee you were referring too.

Yeah, they (termas, clinicas & boates) tack a fee on top of their price for the use of a CC. I can't say I like the practice, but I still charge at these places because 1. While I am on the road cash is limited, but my credit is not. 2. It is more convenient plus I don't have to carry around much cash. 3. I get back 2% on my CC charges which mitigates a portion of what the bordello is charging for the card. OK 3 was lame because I am still paying around 5% net to charge the card. 4. But, when I am back home and relaxing after a 2-month trip, I do not give a damn about the cumulative bordello CC usage fees I amassed over the length of that voyage. They are meaningless in the big picture.

Now as I previously posted, I prefer to give cash to my girls and what I am specifically referring to here is my financial relationship with SP Boate girls. In SP Boates customers can put the girl's fee on their CC (for a fee) separate from room charges and the bar tabs. I prefer to pay my girls afterwards. I also want my girls to see me take the cash out of my pocket and give it straight to her. No clerks or any third parties involved in our private affair. Anyway, I give the boate girls their money from my cash supply and put every other boate charge on the CC's. The only exception is on those fun nights when I do a 2nd girl and I did not bring enough cash to cover both girls.

Now that the pandemic is over, is hooker beach in front of othon palace picking up or is it still dead. Can someone on the ground report.

[PoonyD]

Theoretically, yes, and they promise the driver will wait for you in case you're late. However, I've tried it twice (both times in Brazil), and it's never worked for me.

Thanks for telling the full uncut truth about Vila Mimosa and Mosaico and what can be expected in those places. Definitely not the places for me. But how are the rooms at Mosaico? Don't like the prospect of having to fuck standing up with my shoes on LOL! But, maybe you can pull a tute out of there for takeout? I know you said that's not your thing (mostly not mine either) but that's the only way I'm fucking somebody found at Mosaico ha! Also, how many good-looking brancas did you see up in there, if any? Be honest! And thanks for the frank report!

[Vagabundo1]

That's a good price for Copa.

Sorry, it should be 100 reais /30 minutes (BTW 150 reais /60 min).

[Mr Enternational]

Have you guys used your credit or debit card at any of the big established termas. I know they say don't use them at restaurants because the servers can clone them but are termas pretty safe to use cards. I want to use my debit card at the top termas so I don't have to deal with the ATM so much.
