Sao Paulo Reports

[HiddenEye]

Yes, 3 or 4 times before pandemics the country got stopped because of Whatsapp interruption service. A brazilian telecom company made a demand against whatsapp arguing it was a unlawful contestant of telephony service and Judges declared it a funded demand.

I didn't notice any interruption last November-December.

* Nice morena you fucked!!

I once had a strange situation with WhatsApp in Sao Paulo. I get dropped off at the girl's building. Radio silence. I start to worry that she blew off our appointment. The concierge didn't speak a word of English over the intercom. So there I am in Jardim Paulista standing on the sidewalk with Viagra kicking in. I decide to go to the lunch counter on the corner and have a drink, regroup. Another escort? Clinica perhaps.

I used to rely on Wi-Fi but some bad experiences:

1. Almost missed hooking up with my Campinas boate girl in London because London City Wi-Fi was out. That would have been a disaster.

2. Navigating Incall in London. You can start directions at your hotel and they still work disconnected. But if one thing goes wrong you are fucked.

3. Same thing trying to find this tiny unmarked massage place in Berlin. Hopping into cafes and trying to get signal. A nightmare.

$70/ month is a total steal for as much as I see girls internationally.

Anyway, she WhatsApps me 30-40 minutes later and says the system was down. She's right because I couldn't get any responses from any other escorts nearby. Fortunately, her schedule was open that afternoon and we hooked up for two hours. She was a tall, gorgeous mulata (self-advertised). Great smile. I think she advertised "samba school style". I would love to see her in a samba outfit.

After a couple years of fantastic Gpguia reviews, she disappeared shortly after our appointment. I'm guessing she went to Europe to work as she had done before or she became a sugar baby.

So besides noting the Whatsapp issue, I'm noting you can find great escorts in SP if you put in the time to do some research.

My photos make her look thicker than she really was. She had an amazing slim waist.

As I said, you have to have WIFI. As everyone knows, it is not always available. Your #2 went over my head because you can download maps for offline use so you don't need WIFI or mobile data. Most of my girl calling happens over WhatsApp anyway. I guess I should not assume it is the same for everyone else.

Speaking of Gauguin Club, has anyone been there recently? Thinking of checking out out on my next trip, along with Bahamas.

Last April 2022, I was with another favorite repeat girl whom I had originally met in Bomboa on an earlier trip in Fall 2021. We were now seeing each other around once a week at my hotel. She had become one of my regulars. On this particular night I was staying at the Hilton which is a block down the street from Gauguin. At some point in the evening Licia asked me if I had ever been to Gauguin. I told her I had not and then asked her if she had been there. She said she occasionally went there and sometimes it was good (from her point of view; ha ha) meaning there were plenty of customers and she found some to her satisfaction. So, that is what originally sparked my interest because Licia is a smokin' hot branca spinner who occasionally advertises in Club Model and I am interested in any place that has more girls like her. KKK. Sadly she was on tour in Europe with her bisexual GF and I did not have an opportunity to see her on my last visit in Oct / Nov 2022. But she is back in SP now and I am pretty sure we will get together again in May.

So, I finally went to Gauguin Club one time in Nov, 2022. But it was on the night of some national holiday or something and there were only a few girls out and about anywhere. My story that night starts at Bomboa where I had prearranged to hook up with another favorite repeat girl early. Rafaela was taking the bus later that night to RJ to be with her mother and daughter over the holiday weekend. She was waiting for me at a table when I arrived. It was early, but I noticed there were less than 10 girls hanging around the entire first floor and even fewer customers. I had never seen Bomboa so quiet.

Anyway, Rafaela and I had a Gin Tropical and then we went upstairs. Afterward boom boom we had a light dinner together and then she gathered her stuff and headed for the bus terminal. I hung around Bomboa a while, but the place was dead and I got bored, so I paid my tab and left. But while I was waiting outside for my Uber ride, I noticed there were 2 girls standing outside discussing what to do. They smiled at me. I smiled back so we began conversing. We agreed that Bomboa was dead and I asked the girls where they were going. One of them said they were thinking of going to Gauguin Club to see if it was livelier over there. I told the girls I was heading to the Gran Estanplaza Berrini Hotel which is right across the street from Gauguin and I could give them a ride if they wanted.

So long story short, the 3 of us headed over to Gauguin in the back seat of my Uber. I have to admit that I got a little frisky with the girls and they me, but I parted with them at the Gauguin's front desk. The entry fee and drinks are priced similar to Casarao. Everybody was very friendly. After registering at the front desk I walked thru the doors to the main bar area which was a large cavernous 2 story space with a long bar running down one side and a stage on the other side. There were maybe 5 or 6 girls sitting at the bar and counting the 2 girls I just came with, there were approximately 8 girls, no more than 10 in the entire place. But I was not expecting much since it was a holiday and I had just seen how low on girls Bomboa was that night. Thus, I took that into consideration and I did not hold it against the bar. But the bar room was very dark. I mean VERY DARK and I could not make out the faces of girls sitting 10 feet away from me at the bar. I ordered a drink and a couple of girls came over to see if I wanted company. Even close up it was not easy to get a good determining look, but I was pretty sure these two were not for me. KKK.

Eventually I noticed the girls that I had arrived with had taken care of their business and had entered the bar. I meandered over to where they were sitting, sat down with them, and sipped my drink. The girls were cool and did not hit me up for a drink. For a second or two I contemplated taking them up to my hotel room across the street, since they were the best looking girls currently in the joint, but I quickly decided they were a little sub-par and not for me. So, I said bye bye, went to the front desk and paid my tab.

The girl at the front desk apologized and said things were slow tonight but I should come back another night. I said I would, but I have not returned yet. One of these days I will go back just to make sure about this place. What I know already is that Gauguin is definitely not an upscale club. KKK. The question is, however, is this honky tonk a viable pick up joint ie a smaller version of Casarua or not. I will find out in May.

When I don't have time to get a SIM card I use wifi calling from a USA based plan I keep. There is no cost to place or receive calls to or from any phone number worldwide. The catch of cousrse is you have to be connected to wifi. Google FI works but I recommend people who want to use it read the privacy policy and use agreement carefully before diving in.

What about 57 Friends Club. I guess it's a lower brow vibe, but so convenient to my hotel. Any thoughts on that? Also why is Cafe Photo so low ranked. I thought it was quite high end but maybe past it's prime?

P.S. For SIM card guy I second that Google FI rocks. Phone works all over the world and you don't have to do zip. Well worth not hassling for SIMs as I am usually only in town a couple days.

It has the layout of a boate, but operates as a clinica during the day. There is a small lobby area when you enter with a sofa to the side, so you can sit and ask for a presentation lineup when you enter.

Alternatively, you can do inside the club and walk around. The girls see usually chilling at the sofas in the main lounge area, although some might be in the restaurant in the back or the smoking area off to the side. There is also a bar in the lounge area that you can order drinks. The place isn't posh and the decor a bit dated. Almost like a low key bar and lounge you would find in a small town.

I've visited about 4 x, 3 x during the day and 1 x at night (around 10 pm). The talent level is on par with the other clinicas in the area. There were between 6 to 10 girls during the day. Some other punters have said it can get busier in the evening, especially after 9 pm, when other girls from other Moema clinicas finish their shift and move over to here to finish their night at 57. I didn't find that to be the case during my one evening visit, as I still only saw about 8-10 girls at 9 pm (think it was on a Thursday or Friday).

At night (after 7 or 8 pm), it operates as a boate and you negotiate with the girl directly. I forgot whether there was an admission or minimum consumption or not, but if there was, it was minimal (R 50 or less). I didn't take anyone onsite during my visits, but always saw one girl I was interested in. The reason I didn't was due to me being with friends they were always interested in the same girl! I always deferred to them and let them do the test drive. I did get the digits of the girls from my friends after their session, if they had a good time, and saw the girls outside the club. One girl stood out there for me and she works there from time to time. Her name is Maya / Mya / Mia.

I gave a rundown of some boates in SP here:

http://www.internationalsexguide.nl/...264&viewfull=1#post2725264.

But to further elaborate, no matter how nice a place, it still comes down to the quantity and quality is the girls.

I really want to like Cafe Photo, as it's posh, have great waiter service and the setup allows one to see most of the girls from the lounge as it's mostly one open circular space, with a balcony restaurant and smoking room on the second floor. Here is a drone tour of the space:

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=HZXoEVdxugY

Logistically, Cafe Photo is great for me as I can relax and scope out most of the girls from my seat in the main lounge area without moving much. The girls at Cafe Photo also won't approach you on their own. At Scandallo, I often have to keep moving from room to room to fully scope out the talent.

I also usually only takes girls out so the lack of a takeout fee is also a plus. I can have the option of taking girls to my place or a love motel with themed rooms, depending on my mood without extra fees.

But the main problem with Cafe Photo is the low numbers of girls on site. It usually only has 1/3 to 1/6th the amount of girls when compared to Scandallo. I've always seen at least a couple girls I am interested in at Cafe Photo, but often times are occupied with others and unavailable. Of the 5 or 6 times I've visited, I've left empty handed about 50% of the time and moved on to another boate. Which is not a great ratio when the cost of entry / consumption is on par with Scandallo.

Cafe Photo also appears to be more of an "early" evening boate. I found the best talents at around 8 to 10 pm. Basically it is like a one shift situation. Girls arrive between 7 to 8. And then gets picked over or they leave and move on to other boates / parties if they feel the club is quiet.

You don't see an infusion of girls coming in later in the evening like in Scandallo or Casarao, where things get hopping at 10 pm+ (Scandallo) or 12 am+ (Casarao). At Cafe Photo, things die down at 11 pm or so.

I've said I'd not return to Cafe Photo more than once, but curiosity sometimes gets me to go back. Apparently, I like to give second, third and fourth chances.

Cafe Photo is a decent change of pace for regular Scandallo visitors, but be prepared to move on to another boate after your visit. Thankfully, Bomboa is nearby and Bahamas and Gauguin Club are like a 10 min Uber away.

Speaking of Gauguin Club, has anyone been there recently? Thinking of checking out out on my next trip, along with Bahamas.

Just prior to Covid I was staying at an Airbnb near 57. Walked there one evening and was under impressed until a dark skinned girl took an interest in me. We had a drink and I told her I enjoyed making love in my room much better than at clubs. She agreed to come to me for 300 real after she was done there. She arrived, I had to remind the security that I had booked for 2 people then we spent a lovely night. She did not leave until late the next morning. She kept in touch with me through the pandemic and when I returned last spring she was the first I had come to me. What a wonderful night. However, she had decided she was a 1000 reai girl without telling me and we parted agreeing to disagree after three visits.

Visited 57 Friends late afternoon and night. It was a one-block walk from the hotel. The front desk lady speaks fluent English. They did not have a wide variety of good liquor. In my opinion, the garotas were mostly plain ones you see in other bars. A few cuties came after their shift was done at nearby clinica. There was different pricing as a clinica than as a boate for the room and garotas. I couldn't figure out the pricing the first time. It was not a very busy place. One night I found a girl next door type student. She was porn style performer in bed. I could not tell by her plain-looking face and glasses. After a while, we agreed to met in the hotel apartment to have more fun and better drinks. That was great I think 300 reals. We still stay in touch. There are reviews on gpgua of 57 Friends.

Did anyone catch the graphic video of the massacre that occurred at the pool hall in Moto grosso? It is a chilling reminder that this could happen to any of us. If you wish to view it, here is a link. This is why I just try to stay away from any confrontation in the us and Brazil whether I'm right or wrong. Even with random girls, we have to becareful too because some could work in groups with other people and be up to no good.

I've been to Scandalo so many times that I'm looking to switch it up a little this time. In total, I've visited the club 16 times and it's starting to feel a bit repetitive. Has anyone been to any of the clubs in the smaller cities of Sao Paulo? I'm not talking about Campinas, since it's a relatively big city, but more like the smaller towns in Sao Paulo? I'm sure it would be a much more interesting experience with a different atmosphere.

[Jimmy Boy 99]

Is this place the same as Chanes 57? If so then I went there once and it was not for me. Wasn't taken by the talent. Friendly but not what I was looking for.

Yes, it used to be on Rua Chanes.

[JZeleznik]

Thanks for the full rundown on Bomboa Axel, and I'd add that I used to enjoy 57 at night quite a bit but I feel like the quality is not where it was even three months ago.

As far as Bahamas goes, I went 4-5 times at varying hours over two trips. The entry gets pretty steep after a certain hour (21 maybe?) and the girls would ask me for R800+. My conclusion was ultimately that if I'm going to pay Scandallo prices, I'm going to go to Scandallo. In fairness to Bahamas it is a nice looking place, and there are nice looking girls. Maybe I'll have to try it once more on a busy night, and give the food a shot.

To the person asking about my ranking on Cafe Photo, my experience was limited. I went one time, and started out being very unnerved when they asked to scan my finger print to get in. I went along with it, but it really didn't sit well with me. As for the girls, there was a decent selection and I saw a few I was interested in, but they were occupied so I never got to really explore options. This place also has no rooms on site, and while I like brining girls back to my hotel I generally prefer to screen them once at a club and only invite them back if I know they're fun / sane. Cafe Photo and Scandallo have a decent bit of crossover from what girls tell me, so I imagine its not a bad spot overall if you're comfortable with those few caveats.

[WonderWhy]

57 Friends is a clinica until 9 PM (last time I checked), with typical clinica pricing and you pay reception the fee. Usually dead in the afternoon. After 9 PM, it becomes a boate and you negotiate directly with the girl her fee and pay reception the room fee. Used to be a lot livelier. Seems to be dying lately.

This worked for me from the comfort of my hotel room: https://www.tim.com.br/para-voce/ate.../ativacao-chip.

This maybe the most straightforward method when there is one nearby.

You can get TIM chip (They call a SIM card chip in Brazil) at any newspaper stand or store, then register yourself in English. The key is you need help to get to that English speaking agent on your cell with your new number. The first time, my Airbnb host did it. Later I did it myself with help. You can bring your phone with SIM to any TIM store and ask them to register for you or help you get to the English speaking agent. You need your passport number and maybe the address of the place you are staying. You can even get the store to help you get to the English speaking agent if the store is not too busy.
