Rio de Janeiro Reports

Check always your bill, you can find not nice surprise and when they correct it immediately and they say nothing, it is clear they plan in advance to fuck you, cause most of gringos pay without check the bill and they know it....

look, nothing has changed in the ternas (except prices). you just need to understand rio. this is jan. and a lot of people in rio go on vacation. i reckon that most of the people in termas either live in rio or come there on business. when people are on vacation, you can't have meetings so business travel to rio between dec. and canaval is always way down. no offense to the people on this board, but i just don't think the number of sex tourists is that big in the termas. help was another story.

let me assure you, there are still beautiful girls in the termas with even more beautiful attitudes. if you can't have fun in a quiet terma, try a little harder. think about your job. do you like it when nothing is happening? same with the girls, so go in and make it happen. they will love you for it.

as an example, i went to l during a big futball match and i was the only guy in the place. the girls were sitting around, legs draped on each other, cuddling like a bunch of cats. almost licking each other. for the first time i understood where 'cat house' came from. i spied a couple of new faces, ordered a bottle of wine and sat between them. they immediately warmed up and came alive. i shared the wine, bought a few drinks and i was king of the hill. i had an excptional session and when i came back out, after a few minutes i was double teamed by carolina and someone else i forget and they wanted tequila shots. how could i resist?

up to you but a quiet terma can be a blast.

i am sure the economy and higher prices also have an effect but people will get used to it.

i agree with you slim. but when i was a young salesman, i was only good as my last sale. if you're selling tires and people are walking into the shop and there are more ambitious salesman than i then he will get the sale. however, if a customer walls into the business and no on approaches and makes him comfortable until some one is able to service him then he will leave and go where they want his business. terma girls are selling sex, so they need to act like they want a customer to spend their money. i'm not going to kiss someone's ass and pay too. with that attitude a salesman will starve, and the same for gdp.

On the LatinEuro site, select BR1328 and there is a pic of a girl inside Help, I believe. Slimtower says it's definitely inside Help. Anyone know her?

I posted the link in a previous post - now that link takes you to a different girl.

Conc.132 Niteroi

20R entrance inc 4 choppe
1hr 190R.
Offered A enthusiastically without it being requested. Opening time last Tuesday was 8pm, a little later than I remember it before. I asked what time they shut - no fixed time, but maybe around 2am. Rooms not as cold as 4x4. Optional lockers and normal clothes in the lounges/bars/dance area. She got a bit aggreived that I wasn´t too bothered about accepting her phone number so I took it anyway.

As to Non-Pros: A friend with NO Portuguese and first time in Brasil, but no lack of courage, has been walking up to and talking to girls in the street all the time. A couple of joggers, a girl looking in a store window, etc. Of about 10, only one wouldn't talk to him and give him a telephone number. We'll see how well the later rendezvous work, but surely suggests that a measure of confidence (translated: no fear of rejection) is the most important ingredient in meeting girls on the street. Oh, and these were clerks, accountant, female taxi driver, etc. Not GDP, or at least not full time.

My wingman used to do this, he was brilliant at it. We would mostly work the subways and the street but also Maracana. He had zero Porto as well but many of the educated girls would know a smattering of English. When he ran out of chat I´d take over and vice versa. We used to challenge each other to chat up the most attractive, non-chat-up-able girls we could see. We mostly got phone numbers, never an outright rejection.

Another tactic is similar to the one mentioned by Lukasek - we´d pay them into a nightclub. Not just to collect phone numbers - but to use them as bait. Especially good if they are very hot looking but maybe not up for it the first night. Then we´d put them in a taxi and go back in the club.

Meia Pattaca: Empty most of yesterday. I haven't eaten there for years, but I always rent an apartment near by. At 2 p.m., (14:00) there was not one customer there, but 6 waiters in white standing around. In the evening, a couple of Brazilian families eating a late dinner. Not one GDP or potential customer. Clearly the days of this location as "Meia Putteria" are over. (Is Hooker Beach next on the death knoll?).

Well, it WAS a holiday, after all, and a lot of people headed for the hills.

Let me assure you, there are still beautiful girls in the termas with even more beautiful attitudes.,,,so go in and make it happen. They will love you for it.

I spied a couple of new faces, ordered a bottle of wine and sat between them. They immediately warmed up and came alive....

SlimHoleDrill,

I was here exactly one year ago and despite the prices a lot changed.

Girls that ask how is in the other termas and if the girls there work is nothing never happens to me last year.

I think girls and not me or us, are depressing.

My idea of terma is where girls make me come alive, cause I pay them, not they me.

Actually i do not need to somebody makes me come alive, but I do not need boring girls with crossed arms around me at these prices only because they have pussy, I do not need pussy to live and even less I need terma with so low vibe.

...Still a slow night, but the girls were friendly and fun. A smile and a fun attitude and the place comes alive....

Delecti,

I agree, but yesterday was my third times in 10 days at luomo, the other two times it was pretty dead, yesterday they was lucky, as with the other places closed all the customers met in only one terma, from today it will be different again at luomo as the few customers, much less than one year before, will spread out in all the termas.

Just a couple of observations:

Meia Pattaca: Empty most of yesterday. I haven't eaten there for years, but I always rent an apartment near by. At 2 p.m., (14:00) there was not one customer there, but 6 waiters in white standing around. In the evening, a couple of Brazilian families eating a late dinner. Not one GDP or potential customer. Clearly the days of this location as "Meia Putteria" are over. (Is Hooker Beach next on the death knoll?)

Loumo: Was open yesterday, despite the religious holiday. Apparently, based upon conversation with other guys, everywhere else was closed, ie: MC, Centaurus, etc. Talked to Bia who said that she believes that the American tourist volume is way down, mostly due to the devaluation of the dollar compared to the real. Same thing for most of Europe, except for the Italians. (Don't know why it wouldn't effect them, thought they used Euro's too!) Still a slow night, but the girls were friendly and fun. A smile and a fun attitude and the place comes alive. If you sit there quietly and don't interact, it could be pretty dull.

A Brazilian asked me today why Help was so unique? I told him the truth. Guys who didn't have a prayer of scoring with women in their own country could come to Rio pretend they were in a regular nightclub and leave with a woman who would never have given them the time of day back home. Even if the economy improves, I do not think guys will come to Rio just to have sex. It was the fantasy they were after (and got). Hanging outside of Balcony just doesn't have the same feel. TA was big enough that guys could still get that fantasy feeling.

Well, I can't speak for other guys but from what I saw in front of Help and inside it, you'd have to be pretty delusional to able to "pretend they were in a regular nightclub."

I would be the first to admit that I'm no Don Juan but it seemed to me most of the guys there also didn't think it was their looks and charms that was convincing the girls to go off with them, LOL!

Fantasy is nice, I like fantasy. But I also like reality. Particularly the reality of a good sex session at a reasonable price with a young pretty girl (who's a bit poor and needs my money) with little bullshit and courtship involved. I really like that reality!

Was at MC this afternoon/evening and there were about 50 girls wondering where their next meal was coming from. It was so quiet you could hear a G-String drop.

Now that's a hilarious line!

The termas has that same fantasy feel. Going into a bar and having sex with any girl there.

I do agree with you here that the termas is more like a fantasy world. It's a lot of fun and I enjoy it, but you've got to be crazy to think these girls really feel anything for you once you step out of the venue. Heck, the notion of one of these chicks "falling for me" scares me more than lifts my ego!

Azn Safado,

I will do it, if I remember correctly even 00 some days is gays-lesbian disco, right ? In which days ?

Sunday is one such night

[Azn Safado]

Azn Safado,

I will do it, if I remember correctly even 00 some days is gays-lesbian disco, right ? In which days ?

She told me in Lapa 40 grados is better disco than the Rio Scenarium, but I have no idea where it is and if it is really good.

Yes Club00 is gay-night on some nights, but I don't know which night. I went on a Saturday night, and it was a straight crowd, sprinkled in with some gays.

The thing about The Week is it only runs as a disco on Saturday nights as far as I know, so it will be gay night. It could work in your favor though, as you might be one of the few straight guys there and can chat it up with the ladies where their guard might be down.

[Mongmann]

Sure. I wish every male the right to bang hot women and have great sex. But it doesn't change the fact that Brazil isn't a good place to think you can still hook up with a smoking babe and spend all night with her for less than US$100. If you haven't noticed, Brazil is becoming more developed. It's not a third world country and more importantly Brazilian people have to grapple with inflation, ie. Everything there is getting MORE EXPENSIVE as opposed to staying the same price & forget about it getting cheaper. 150 Reais doesn't go as far as it used to, so they have to charge a little more every time. Not so different than the USA. How much less can US$100 buy me this year compared to 10 years ago? But I digress.

The simple fact is that though I don't consider myself to be weathly, I do have a lot of disposable income & I don't like to waste too much time haggling with a hottie when the difference between 150 Reais and 300 Reais doesn't mean much to me after factoring in the exchange rate. That's just me. I've had great experiences for relatively low costs just as well I have had great experiences while dropping $1, 000 Reais. It's just money. But the experiences are priceless.

Actually I just arrived in Rio this morning. It is hotter than a Mexican's lunch down here (approx. 40 degrees celsius). Looking forward to hitting the beaches.

I hear what you're saying but I def think your type of thinking is one of the reasons why these girls get away with some of their crazy pricing demands. 1000r? That's insane, but hey that's you and you can do as you please. Problem is not everybody has a lot of disposable income and not everybody feels like "it's just money" so when you drive the price of ass up you basically make it harder for everybody else who doesn't share your "its just money" feelings. I'm sure you've heard this before and theres not much I can say to change your mind. I just hope that your taste in women is not anything like mine.

[Devilspinkick]

There is some truth to that but not 100 percent true because help's quality was poor so nobodies fantasy is to be with ugly women.

I´m with you on that one. I hope they disinfect that building before transforming it into a museum.
