I have asked several girls if they do French kissing but not all girls know the expression. What is the best way to ask if a girl does french kissing in Brazilian Portuguese?

It's so hard to navigate this forum. Please forgive me if this is too basic to ask but I got to do it.

First time going to Brazil in March and was wondering what's the deal with casas?

Is it like a German style brothel where you just walk in and the girls have their own rooms? When meeting a girl from photoacompanhantes, do you go to her place or is it more advisable to invite to a hotel?

Is there some kind of interactive map with hotspots of these type of things? Like they have for Colombia on the other forum?

Also is there more European style establishments like gangbangs, glory holes, peep shows, strip clubs etc?

Thanks.

Are you talking yourself out of Brazil already? I would say do a little more research and try to understand Brazil better.....

Colombia is much cheaper. I think you have not considered FB scene that you can have a girl come over stay for several hours for about 50 USD. There are thousands of them.

As for passionate and sexual, you can find them in Colombia too. It's a numbers game but there are so many available at lower price so you can find them even at lower percentage.

Brazil is so much more expensive than Colombia! Its like going to California: Hotels, flights. So expensive!

Even the girls seem 2 times the price (at least) as Colombia.

I am happy for all of you in better financial situations than myself.

At this moment: I can afford Colombia--not sure I can afford Brazil.

There are generally two reasons guys prefer Brazilian hookers over Colombian hookers. You will find a wider variety of women in Brazil. More importantly, Brazilian hookers are the most passionate and sexual in the world. You can find Brazilian girls who are far more adventurous. I personally might add that you will find the most incredible asses in Brazil. Many of them natural.

As far as cost, you can find cheaper venues and cheaper lodging. What you want to spend is really up to you. If you read about Scandallo here, we are talking about a world class mongering establishment in a large megalopolis. If the price seems high, don't go to Scandallo. As far as airfare, nothing anyone can do about that. Brazil is much farther away than Colombia.

Some guys prefer a Gringo Gulch environment where the mongering scene is concentrated and caters to tourists. Nothing wrong with that. The drill in Sao Paulo and Rio de Janeiro is basically walk out the door of your lodging and grab an Uber to your mongering destination in another part of the city. Nothing wrong with that either.

Sao Paulo is an exciting, metropolitan city with great food and nightlife. Rio de Janeiro is a gorgeous coastal city which is a top tourist destination aside from mongering. Think of Rio's urban beaches with sexy Brasileiras running around in thong bikinis. Colombia really has no place like either.

For reference, my crude Portuguese was picked up with some minimal effort from some books and tapes. I get by. You don't need to speak Portuguese, but it helps to know some basic phrases.

Having said all this, we had a guy awhile back who went through all these questions and discussions for a couple weeks and in the end he just went to the Dominican Republic. Brazil is not for everyone and I think you should be able to figure that out just by reading the SP and Rio threads.

Here are a couple of interesting articles. This one focuses on the underground sex industry:

And this one is on the struggles sex workers face in trying to navigate in an otherwise cashless society:

That all depends on what cities you are talking about. Cartagena is much more expensive than Rio. Sao Paulo is more expensive than Bogota. Can't really say USA is more expensive than France if you are comparing LOS Angeles and Grasse. Because if you were comparing Birmingham and Paris you would say France is more expensive than USA.

I mean I see these questions "I don't speak the language should I go" and I just shake my head. If I had allowed not speaking the language to be a barrier to my travels and limited myself to just the English-speaking world, why I would have been to only a tiny fraction of the countries I have visited thus far. It just shouldn't be a reason for not going to a place, especially with today's new technologies that can assist. Go. Look. Listen. Learn! Never let language be a reason for not going to another country. Rather, let it be a primary reason for going and discovering a new place and what it has to offer. Be that tutes, food, culture, music, religion, or whatever.

I appreciate the optimism and agree.

I guess it comes down to going out of the comfort zone vs easy street. Keep investing in what I know works for me and is easy: Spanish speaking Colombia or see if Brazil is what I get in Medellin but even better.

Safety, food (I'm veggie), pussy, costs, communication, figuring out where to go are my primary concerns at the moment. This board is a huge help!

Medellin is just so easy. LOL.

I guess after a few trips, Brazil would be too. It would be nice if there was a Mansion equivalent o get started. Maybe that's pretty much Scandallo?

How many people here spoke Portuguese before ever going to Brazil? Probably none. People wanted to learn after visiting.

I imagine that would be me too if I pull the trigger and go for it LOL.

Well, I've been going to Colombia for over 20 years, many, many times.

I speak Spanish as well, and as you know it greatly enhances the experience.

I started to visit Brazil for work and fun about 15 years ago, speaking good spanish but no portuguese.

I had a great time and they will generally understand spanish to a point, more than you'll understand them for sure.

Having said that, the languages are very similar and with a little effort and practice you can fairly easily break the portuguese code, LOL.

I did.

Learning spanish was tough because it was my first foreign language.

Had to retrain my mind.

Yeah, I agree with all the sentiment here--thanks for the reply.

In the long run. This is the way. Though starting a new language seems daunting at the moment LOL.

Well said amigo cane! Sem limites is the only way to roll. Go monger and conquer stop and smell the flowers repeat.

Anyone has either attended or have some info about Portuguese language schools either in Rio or Sao Paulo please post or send PM.

[Xpartan]

I speak Spanish so I always go to Colombia.

I want to try Brazil, but I speak zero Portuguese. I have never been to Brazil and know very little about the country.

I have been to Colombia 20 times or so in the last 10 years, as well as 40 other countries overall. I am well traveled, and an experienced monger.

Do I shake it up with Brazil and my lack of ability to speak Portuguese or stick with what I know in Spanish speaking Colombia?

This is my big life dilemma at the moment. LOL.

Any thoughts, def. Appreciated.

You're overthinking it. I don't see a dilemma. I kind of envy people who've never been to Brazil for they have no idea how much fun awaits them.

I only have the most basic skills in both Spanish and Portuguese. Well, maybe intermediate-basic in Portuguese. Shame on me because I've been going to Brazil for decades. Just too lazy.

But!

Do you speak the languages of all 40 lands you've been to?

Speaking Spanish in Brazil will make your trip much easier than no Spanish. And Brazil is worth it even to those who don't know a word in Spanish or Portuguese.

Vagabundo posted a Youtube link to free lessons from a Brazilian girl. I listened to a few and liked them. She offers private lessons, too.

And she's a cutie, LOL.

Learning about a country and city (strongly recommend Rio for your first-time visit) is all about reading. Then take a few free walking tours upon arrival. Done.

Simply put, Brazil is more enjoyable than Colombia, and I've been to (and liked) Colombia. Just not as much.
