Rio de Janeiro Reports

[Balboa]

I hate everything about Mabs, it's not only about girls. I don't really like the atmosphere in Mabs. As a Brazilian, I am against opendoor prostitution. (Mabs, Help, Balcony, streetwalkers). I am not against brothels (termas, clubs, clinicas, prives). I hope mabs will close someday and more termas, clubs and clinicas open. Many girls are not good looking in Mabs but it's possible to find few. The selection is not really good. I agree with you, if there is no good chemistry, just leave. The price you pay is your business. To me I don't care about the price, I pay if I like and have a good vibe from the girls. We Brazilian men pay when we like and can afford. It's not about how much but more about enjoying without regret. 5 weeks ago, I paid a girl from Solarium 800 reais all night. I pay that much because I wanted to pay that price. She did not talk about the price and was nice and a good performer, she just said to me, pay what you want when we finish, I went to a motel with her. Not the best looking girl I fucked but one of the best fuck I experienced. I decided to pay her 800 reais when we woke up maybe because of my mood.

All understandable, and I agree, pay what you want, what you're able to.

Mabs for me is a place just to pass thru, and see what's there.

Occasionally get lucky there.

You should have invited her, in Brazil you can also meet girls in the metro station.

Yes, looking back now, hindsight 20/20, I really should have done that. An opportunity wasted!

Mabs may be a gringo trap as you say, and most girls aren't that great, however, I have found some keepers there.

I stop in, check the scenery, and if I see something I like, I move in for a chat and see what she's like, if she's cool, if we have chemistry.

If so, I offer 300R for all night and as long as she wants to hang the next day.
I provide food and drinks of course, and usually an Uber home.

Normally if there's a good vibe and chemistry, she gladly comes with me.

If she starts asking for more, etc, etc, I just politely say good night and leave.

That happens at times too of course.

I don't care, I just move on.

I win some, I lose some, but I've definitely had good luck at times.

... I wonder how many women in SP and RJ can speak conversational English?

When I was on the train, I overheard 3 ladies talking in English but from their accent I can tell they were either Americans or Canadians. I almost had the urge to go up to them and strike a conversation but I then thought how weird that would be LOL.

I've been coming to Brasil since the late 90's, I've been living & working in Sao Paulo for the past 4 yrs. My firm does a lot of business with several Fortune 500 Brazilian companies. It's not unusual for me to have to interact in meetings & conferences with Brasileiras who have been educated in the US, Canada, UK & other parts of Europe. Often times their English is superior to mine (English is my L2, my L1 is German).

Granted many of these women are lawyers, MBA financial types, IT specialists, engineers, educators & scientists. Additionally, I've met more than a few GdPs who were formerly married to gringos and have lived or worked abroad, thereby acquiring a decent command of English. Also, there are several universities in Sao Paulo, so it's not unusual to encounter coeds who have an excellent working knowledge of English in their major areas of study.

I am surprsied that you are so successful at getting free sex from terma girls every Friday. Those girls see dick every day, all day long plus they must be asked out on "dates" a 100 times day. I know for a fact that almost every police officer in 4 X4 is constantly trying to get the girls to meet them for free outside of the club, so to see a brazilian man score so easily is quite surprising.

Free sex doesn't mean really free ( I still pay for the hotel, restaurant and party), I mean I don't pay cash, and no, I don't have free sex with terma girls every Friday because I don't go to termas every Friday. 4 by4 is a good place to invite girls on Fridays. Especially in the whisky bar When the girl finishes, she waits for you in the corner. If you think it's only about dick, it's normal you will never score girls.

[Bravo]

Mabs is not interesting because it's really crappy, that's why you never see brazilian men there. I don't mind paying 500 - 700 reais all night even few hours if the girl is really beautiful and have a good character. Brazilian men are not cheap when they have money, they spend and choose what they like. I also fuck terma girls for free especially when I go to termas on Fridays, I invite them to go out. The selection is not really good in Mabs, I have rarely seen beautiful women there. I don't have trouble picking up normal girls.

Yesterday, I was trying to ask an attendant where can I buy a ticket at a metro station and a young Brazilian lady next to me gave me directions in English. She even gave me her ticket and refused my money when I tried to pay her. She spoke very good English. I was quite surprised. Too bad we were at the metro station. If we met at a store or a party I would have talked to her more. I wonder how many women in SP and RJ can speak conversational English?

Gringo trap? Maybe just an inexperienced person trap. I have never even considered paying anyone anywhere 500 reais. In the 18 years that I have been going to Brazil and living there part of the time, I have never paid anyone more than 200 reais for overnight. Pussy is just not worth that much to me, especially when there are so many non-pros floating around. You pay what you negotiate, not what they ask for.

As a Brazilian, I never go to Mabs. Mabs is a gringo trap, I ve rarely seen stunners in Mabs. 1000 reais is too much overnight, 500 reais is ok if the girls is good looking.

In March I paid 600 reals (Mabs girl) from 8 pm to 9 am. So 1000 reals for 3 hours no thanks.

No more than 500 R max paid for 1 am-8 am, I didn't negotiate should have, I am confidant I could have gotten down to 300 R-400 R. Mabs is not the best but usually someone sets the radar off. I agree that Termas especially 4 x 4 provides best return on investment plus getting the number and getting one to come back to room after work or day (s) later is best bet.

[Mr Enternational]

For someone who speaks perfect Portuguese that's no problem. I do speak some Portuguese but not enough to converse in complex conversations. For all night, you can only have sex for so long. The majority of down time you will need to keep the girl engaged and entertained with conversations.

And you use the rest of the time practicing Portuguese. So while the chick thinks you are only paying her for sex, you are getting a 2 for 1 deal because she is doubling as your tutor. Nobody started off speaking fluent Portuguese. Not even natives. Learning a language is a process.

Too bad we were at the metro station. If we met at a store or a party I would have talked to her more.

But you were already talking to her. All you had to do was exchange information and talk more later.

When I was on the train, I overheard 3 ladies talking in English but from their accent I can tell they were either Americans or Canadians. I almost had the urge to go up to them and strike a conversation but I then thought how weird that would be LOL.

How would that have been weird? Whenever I am in my country and hear someone speaking in a language familiar to me that is not English then I ask where they are from. Whenever I am in a country that is not known for English and I hear someone speaking in English, then I also ask where they are from. Nothing weird about talking to people.

Finally went to solarium yesterday.

The ambience of the club was not that great for the price.

They charge a fucking 120 for entry.

And 560 for 40 mind with girl.

Many girls seemed to be with attitude. When I entered the place no one cares to come near me. They were just sitting in their places.

I myself went and spoke to a English speaking pussy.

She was trying to seduce but after some 10 minutes she told let's go room room.

Then I got bored with her. I thought of just watching the pussies..

It's all relative to how hot the lady is I guess. I rarely would find anything worthwhile at MABS but when I did the girls would charge 200-300 real / hour. These chics were cute, above average GND. Not head turners. Cute girls, don't think anyone would turn them down if they came on to you somewhere at A bar. Surprised guys are saying they got the whole night for 300 real?

Found a really hot fair skinned Brazilian at one of the side bars by Mabs. She was pretty hot def above average def a notch or two above the Chics I found at Mabs, she wanted 450 reals / hour, said she would come for 400.

Some guys from work get DDG girls from some agency and pay USA $400 for two hours.

1000 real for 3 hours, she better give you great service. I met this chic Larissa from solarium, with me she was lackluster at most in service. Knew I was from out of town and gave me her #? LOL. Dude if your going to call a chic over make sure she's going to give you a good time. Sample some more chics if you want my advice.

For 1000 real you could prob have a chic from 4 x 4 take you out to Lapa bars and give you a service at night and Am and hang out the next day. But again, if this chic looks like a Victoria's Secret model, 1000 may be right?

I've been using Bradesco ATM's with no issues this and my last trip. (These ATM's are located inside a bank.) I did use a Banco 24 hrs ATM at Rio Sul shopping. It cost me $6 USD more to use that ATM vs Bradesco. The only time I had my card cloned was when I used it at a Banco do Brasil ATM at GIG. The GIG ATM's have been cloning cards for decades!

I've installed Skimmer Scanner on my Samsung Galaxy. It's "a free, open source app that detects common Bluetooth based credit card skimmers predominantly found in gas pumps. " So far, so Good. Youtube also has vids on how to spot a skimmer.

OOhhh, thanks for info about the skimmer scanner app, I will definitely have to check that out. BTW, if you don't mind disclosing, which Bradesco bank do you use?

If you are an american, you should open up an Charles Schwab checking account, its totally free and it comes with a debit card that will reimburse any / all ATM fees including internationals ones.

The majority of down time you will need to keep the girl engaged and entertained with conversations. Sure, there is google translate that I can use but it very cumbersome and clumsy and the human connection is diminished with the use of a machine. Plus, translators are not perfect with translations and a lot of the original meanings can be lost. I envy that you can speak perfect Portuguese. I have been studying on my own on and off for the last couple of years. But I only feel I make progress when I'm here in Brazil where I can practice with the natives. I doubt that I will ever be as fluent a native speaker. If I am able to stay in Brazil for a couple of month straights then maybe I can hit 50% proficiency. Right now I think I'm only at 25%.
