Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Mr Enternational]

when I first learned Spanish I was using apps and talking to a Dominican girl via WhatsApp all the time I could read it well thought I could hear it well, I tell you that first trip to the DR I couldn't understand nothing it felt like they were talking hella fast my ear wasn't trained.

That is because a lot of Dominicans are uneducated and therefore do not speak or write formal Spanish. So you have to learn their informal version. If you are talking to an educated person then you would be able to understand them.

I remember being with a hooker in Sosua and we ran into a friend from her home town. She asked for the girl's number and proceeded to write it in her phone exactly how she was pronouncing it: Mokito, meaning Mosquito. When I meet Dominican chicks online and they can not write in formal Spanish it makes ny head hurt and I just choose not to deal with them. Even something as simple as que they will write as ke or some bullshit.

Many of them even have their names spelled wrong on their birth certificate and a different day than when they were actually born due to their parents' illiteracy.

The new iOS has a great translator. Without Time to acclimate your ears it's just going to be rough I'm not sure if you all had the same experience as me but when I first learned Spanish I was using apps and talking to a Dominican girl via WhatsApp all the time I could read it well thought I could hear it well, I tell you that first trip to the DR I couldn't understand nothing it felt like they were talking hella fast my ear wasn't trained. I live in Cali I spoke a lot to Mexicans before the trip but Mexicans and Dominicans sound way different I'm sure it's the same in Portuguese. But I do agree with my man that says learn some Portuguese. I been on my duo lingo and Busuu but don't have much hope that I will really be able to hang next month LOL.

I learned Portuguese in the southern region of Brasil. The first time I tried to communicate with someone from Bahia, I actually stopped him and asked if he was speaking Portuguese or not! LOL! Its the same all over the world. Imagine if someone learned english in Maine and then went on a trip to Alabama, it would be almost impossible for him to understand what they were saying.

This little gizmo for 100 bucks appears to work, https://www.timekettle.co/collection...ini-translator (are some youtube videos online showing people using it), of course nothing like learning the language I'm working my way (slowly) through Pimsleur Brazilian Portuguese, but for those that find it hard or don't have time it is certainly looks better than trying to converse during the act using Google Translate. If your Android user make sure your phone has the type-see connection.

[Vagabundo1]

Monique charged Vagabundo 600 r for 3 pernoites / diarias, starting on 18 h Domingo (Sunday) ending 14 h Quarta Feira (Wednesday).

Of course I also bought whatever she wanted at the supermercado, about 400 r.

And two days at the hula hula beach bar, 440 r per day, and extra odds and ends like sunglasses from the beach vendor (50 r).

It was a good 66 straight hours.

Unlimited creampies in her negra buceta. Of course.

So it's going on 3 days with Monique at Chalet de la Playa, ie, Transamerica.

She needs to stop looking at facebook when she is cooking or she burns the bolinhos de bacalhau, which Vagabundo likes.

Vagabundo also likes shooting endless creampies in her bare pussy.

Monique screams and orgasms when Vagabundo penetrates her cuzinho.

It brings to mind that great scene in Charlie Wilson, who says, "I guess someone can't count".

She orgasms with my dick up her ass but doesn't let me shoot a nut up that tight passage.

But she is trying.

Meanwhile, I empty my gonads into her young pussy 6 to 9 times a day..

This is one of those questions that gets asked over and over and over again. I'm a Spanish speaker, and I can assure you it's useful. You might not be able to understand them, but I guarantee that if you speak Spanish well, they will understand a lot of what you are saying. So, between that and what English they know, plus a handy tool like Google Translate, you will be fine.

The moniker of "the ugly American" is well-earned. But we're not the only ones. I've seen bad behavior exhibited by people from all over the place from east to west and in between. Although, when it comes to "language snobbery", I would have to say that English-speaking peoples seem to be the worst in terms of acting like everybody else should speak and understand English. When I retire, I hope to be able to spend some extended time in Brazil. While there, one of the things I would like to do is study Portuguese at my leisure and at my own pace in the mornings or early afternoons. I'll need to leave evenings and weekends open for many sexual escapades.

A Bengala.

I retired in '15, moved to Sao Paulo and started my own company. Being African-American I try my best to blend into the crowd / culture. When a random Brazilian asks me where I'm from (in Portuguese) and I tell them Washington, DC. USA. , they're fucking floored. Conversely, when I'm speaking Portuguese, due to my accent many think that I from some semi-literate fuck from some other region of Brasil. I have several Brazilian friends I've known for years who think I'm French or Canadian, simply because I speak half-way decent Portuguese and never told them I'm from EUA. And only speak English when I want to tell jokes or they want to practice their English.

Wish I had a dollar for every time I've seen an American thrown out of a bar or gotten his ass kicked by a bouncer for being a fucking asshole. Basically, expecting everyone to speak English simply because he's paying with an American Express gold card or has a wad of Brl $100's in his pocket. Then copped a tude' when he and his group didn't get their way, and made the major mistake of making a scene about the whole thing. Damn it hurts me to my core when I see that shit, but then not as much as the guy getting his DNA re-arranged by some MMA fighter moonlighting as a bouncer!

I live in a pretty exclusive building in Sao Paulo. Being the new (gringo) guy, all the security guys know me. There have been times when I don't even have to buzz in, they see me on the camera, say "bom DIA, boa tarde, or boa noite," call me by my first name over the PA and let me in. It's not unusual for them to stop by my flat, buzz my door and ask (in broken English) if I need any laundry picked up from the dry cleaners, or they're going to the mercado, do I need anything? Of course if I do, I'll give them a tip. Thinking if they do that all over the building, it'll add up to a major boost to their salary, I imagine.

Not that I'm complaining or anything but there is one armed guard (a woman, yes she's hot, 25-30 yrs old, who is also Policia Militar) who'll stop by my flat and ask to use the bathroom. I always have some coffee on the stove and extra bottles of water in the fridge for them. Once, I had to go to Rio for a last minute meeting, told the security guy on my floor I'd be out of town for the weekend, he asked if he could crash at my place with his GF! Gave him my door code, told him no problem, just change the sheets, wash the dishes and don't drink all my tequila!

Once PM babe was off-duty from her building security gig, she had worked a few hours overtime and was unable to go to her own house, but had her PM uniform in her backpack (as she's required to do) asked if she could shower at my place before she changed into her PM uniform. This was after she put her Taurus. 45 on my home office desk, took the mag out, cleared the chamber and gave me permission hold / look at it.

She even stopped by a few days later and cooked dinner to thank me. Best poached salmon I've ever eaten in my life!

FYI: a Bengala.

I speak English / German / Portuguese / Spanish / French. Also, I avoid Americans abroad because if you see someone acting an asshole in a foreign country it's usually an American.

Cheers.

And it isn't just about just being lazy either. I speak three languages already, and I'm sure there are some here who speak more than that. How many do you speak? I speak English (native), Spanish, and a third that again I shall not name because it gives too much away.

No doubt you're right. I just couldn't make significant progress with Portuguese, which is weird because I have somewhat of a head start already speaking Spanish. But despite that, my trips to Brasil have been more memorable than my trips to the usual Spanish-speaking destinations.

On Instagram go to:

At portugueseasy.

At portuguese_words.

At greengodictionary.

At learnuportuguese.

At yesportuguese.

At officialbrazilingo.

At facilportuguese.

Just to name a few, there are dozens of Portuguese language resources on IG. Just Google: Portuguese language aids on IG / or FaceBook.

Cheers.

Want to' score some major points with the locals, learn some Portuguese. I live in Sao Paulo, my work (pre-pandemic) took me to PR / MG / RJ as well as SP states (for now the only travelling I do is via Zoom). When I hear / see gringos trying to communicate with Brazilians in Spanish my thoughts are:

A) Have you checked a map lately?

B) Damn you're making Americans look like idiots!

C) You are insulting your listeners!

D) It reinforces all the reasons why I avoid Americans in Brasil.

Learn some Portuguese! Please!

I know where I'm at (I've been to over 50 countries, and I keep really good track), I'm not making anybody look like an idiot (including myself), nobody has been offended by me working hard to try to communicate with them, and I'm quite happy to avoid other Americans abroad who think they're somehow better than me because they speak the local language (whatever it is), and I don't. I'm also happy to avoid any local who has no patience and cops a tude if you don't speak the local language (this is extremely rare in most any country I have been to, but not all), but there you are trying your best to communicate with them anyway.

And it isn't just about just being lazy either. I speak three languages already, and I'm sure there are some here who speak more than that. How many do you speak? I speak English (native), Spanish, and a third that again I shall not name because it gives too much away. I would love to speak Portuguese the way that I can speak Spanish, but I have not had time to learn it the way that I want to. I needed the other two languages for my work, so they got top priority, and my work keeps me busy and doesn't allow me the time to be in a class all day, which is what I did for Spanish and the other language, both of which I have since put to good use.

Now guys listen up. It's all how you do it. How you go about it. You don't just walk up to a Brazilian and start blabbing away in Spanish (or English). Not only would that make you look like an idiot (yes), it's really kind of culturally ignorant I think. Now, you might know that somebody speaks English just by hearing them talking to somebody else. Or, if you smile and say "Hi", you could get a smile back and an, "Oh you speak English great I like to practice"! I've had that happen a lot. Many Brazilians are proud to show their English skills. If the person speaks no English, then you can ask them (in Spanish) if they speak Spanish. Many will nod yes or say they do a little bit and encourage you to speak to see if they can understand (I have found that most of the time they do). And between what Spanish and English they can understand, and what Portuguese you can understand, you will do just fine, and nobody is going to be offended if you approach them in a kind and considerate way! The only one who might get offended is some American who thinks he's better than you because he speaks the language, and assumes that you're just some culturally insensitive dolt who doesn't give a damn! And I can guarantee you that the working girls absolutely won't be offended! Believe this! If anything, they might get offended if you keep trying to speak to them in your limited Portuguese (or Spanish) when their English is outstanding LOL!

And remember, if and when all else fails, you still have your handy smartphone! Everybody has one, and everybody has got some kind of translator on their phone. The girls are often the first ones reaching for theirs so that they can communicate with you. If you don't know Portuguese and you haven't had time to learn it (for whatever reason), then use everything at your disposal to make sure that you can communicate what you need to, including technology. And over time, you will pick up key words and phrases that will be very helpful as well. But whatever you do, don't let somebody put you down and make you feel lesser because you don't know Portuguese how they do. What I'm here to tell you is that you can still go down there and have a great time, Portuguese or no! I can't tell you how many girls I've met and fucked where the whole time we were either speaking 100% English, 100% Spanish, or something in between like "Spanglish" and Portuguese LOL! And then too, there have been times when we've been 100% on the translator, and it was still all good! Everybody happy!

Of course, knowing the language of whatever country you're in would make the whole experience richer. Nobody can challenge that. But let's keep it real. Most people who go down there as native English-speaking tourists are never going to have great Portuguese. Not ever! And if that's you, don't you worry! You will meet Brazilians, including working girls, who can speak English like they're from Anaheim, California or Spanish like they're from Guadalajara, Mexico, to some who can only speak Portuguese. But never fear! Read my reports. Look at the photos of all the Brazilian tutes I done fucked. Do you see me suffering? And do you see me writing about how my time was terrible because I couldn't communicate? Let me answer that. No! As long as you're not one of these types who thinks that the louder you speak English, then the more likely a non-English speaker is eventually going to understand you, then you'll be fine. And don't let anybody tell you anything different from that. You go with your non-Portuguese speaking self! Just be considerate, not only of their language (don't just walk up and start speaking Spanish or English), but of their culture too. Do that, and you will come back with memories that will last you a lifetime, including some funny ones that may even involve some language miscues themselves (see my post in the Porto Alegre thread where the gaucha sold me her panties right there in the club when I thought she was asking me yet again to spend money on alcohol). Methinks some people need to get off of their high horse is what. Brazilian people are generally quite friendly and accepting if you are too. And you try to communicate in a friendly and patient way. In all my travels down there, I can only recall one time when a tute didn't want to talk to me because I didn't speak Portuguese. And I was glad too because her ugly ass approached me. Was an easy way to get rid of her haha!

So it's going on 3 days with Monique at Chalet de la Playa, ie, Transamerica.

She needs to stop looking at facebook when she is cooking or she burns the bolinhos de bacalhau, which Vagabundo likes.

Vagabundo also likes shooting endless creampies in her bare pussy.

She orgasms with my dick up her ass but doesn't let me shoot a nut up that tight passage.

But she is trying.

Meanwhile, I empty my gonads into her young pussy 6 to 9 times a day.

We went to the beach the last two days, which were good beach days.

As that guy who wrote the subtle art of not giving a fuck from Brazil has correctly noted, all the fucking natives care about is the photos, hence her love for one of Vagabundo's devices to check her facebook.

But she's a good cook too, when she gets her head out of her facebook.

And unlike Midori, she gives up her pussy to endless leche.

Good girl.

Midori is getting ignored, as is Nina, who is trying to set up a meeting with Vagabundo. We are bringing back callsign Kira Noir, a Mulatta, who is Vagabundo's favorite.

Life is good.

That's my exact experience in many trips to Brasil. They will understand your Spanish just fine. But you won't understand their Portuguese.
