Cheers, Sprite. Didn't think Iguacu would be worth the hassle for mongering, just thought I'd check. Short of a shag under the waterfalls I'll probably have more contact with mozzies than pussies. Belem's currently my fave city and looking forward to returning. Yep, it's a hard choice between pros and non-pros there. My last trip there was also my first, so am just prodding away to see if anyone has any breaking news lol!

You're absolutely right that Iguacu is not worth much mongering wise. This is mainly a place to BYOG, really. Also, while there, even for nightlife, the majority of the locals there told me to go to the Argentinian side as it's more lively with way more options and also a lot cheaper too.

Chris,
I was in Iguacu about 2 years ago, didn't do any mongering there but you can find the usual stuff (ask the cabs for casas or call the independents on the paper). However, when I was there, quite a few people told me not to waste time/money in Iguacu, instead hop on a cab and go to Ciudad del Este in Paraguay, where you can have chicas of good quality for dirt cheap (think Rio Centro's budget options). And apparently, the Paraguayanas are hot and sexy. There's also a casa de show whose name I don't really recall (perhaps Crystal) situated on the way to the Falls. Expect to pay around 300+Reais for a programma, there.

For Belem, haven't been there yet but I have met in here quite a few very hot non pros who are from there. Belem/and Para in general is filled with beautiful, sexy and easy going non pros. Depending on how long you'll be there, give this a try.

All the best and looking forward to reading your reports.

Am familiar with all the excellent reports in the dedicated threads on these two locations. But if anyone has anything to add, or has been recently but not got round to posting, all info appreciated (forum or pm). Cheers.

Chris:

I wasn recently in Belem(last week). What I can tell you about is there is an area called the Docas (Docks). This is a waterfront area with a couple of nice restaurants and; and a "boardwalk along the Rio Negra". The goratas walk up and down along the borad walk trying to get the attention of the customters.

Also, there is the world famos Locomotive entertainment complex. Interestingly, this place is located in a normal neirborhood. The qualily is veriable, but is you goto Belem, you must go becuase this is an instiutions.

I also went to a couple of the Boite in central; which are like Rio $1/minute spots. I think the address that been previouly posted. So if you want to go, then read throught the tread for addresses.

One other note: in city like Belem, Manaus, they are on Brasilian time: meaning things don;t really get started to around 8pm at night. Although a coulpe of the Boites open early, only the uglier garoatas are there.

As for sight seeing; I wasn't really impressed with Belem.

Hope this helps.

Hola Holandês Voador,

Did you go to Maceio last month? I will be there this Saturday for one week. Any updates?

Muito Obrigado!

Guys,

I ran into this wonderful forum not so long ago. It’s great, wonderful reports! After wandering the streets of Natal and some other smaller cities in the Brazilian Nordeste and the interior for over ten years, with some short breaks to Rio as well, I’m heading for Bahia next week. Planning to do some profound exploration of Salvador, after that want to head for Maceió. Salvador wouldn’t be a problem, since it’s a bigger city, I’ll normally find my way there or the meninas will find me ☺.

On Maceió I’ve read the great reports, so I have a basic idea of where to go and how it is. But the reports date from 2007 and earlier, and might be somewhat outdated. Is there somebody around here with recent information on Maceió? And how about the accommodation? Are the hotels GF? Normally, I would prefer an apartment, I’m looking for some on www.aluguetemporada.com.br, normally that works fine for me, but if somebody has an interesting suggestion?

I’ll post and update any relevant information after I arrive next week.

Keep up the good work!

Abraços!!

Pay some girl to go over to the ex girlfriend's place and visit her. Or pay a taxi driver to drive his daughter or wife over there.
It could be your death sentence, if you go alone. Much worse, and much more likely, it could create hell, beatings and divorce for the girl. I would be careful

That would take away the surprise.
I can only remember three times that a BF/husband has been around. The BFs have not been welcoming me with a big joyful smile, but after some chatting they have been very calm, well-mannered and even showed nice hospitality. I doubt that they had any harder feelings towards the wifey after I left.

I never saw Boa Vista, but to judge from your ratings, I did not miss anything? how come the non-pros are so bad there?

I saw some beautiful girls in Boa Vista. The problem is that the city is so extremely boring. Night-life etc is among the worst in Brazil.

The first day I wandered around in the city several hours and thought there must be something interesting to see. Absolutely nothing exciting at all. A 30 minutes-walk from the centro and you're out in the bush.

Surprise visiting ex-GFs might be necessary when I only have an address and no email address or working phone number.

Damn, Sperto, you have been around! you tried out all these places?

I know about half of them and fully agree with the rankings. Especially about non-pros. Now the difference about ease of non-pros ranked 4 (Rio) and 5 (Porto Velho, Manaus) is staggering. Or probably you should rate Copacabana, Ipanema, Leblon a 3 and other parts of town 4.

I would give Natal beaches and dunes a 5.

But how the hell could a surprise visit ever be a good idea!

[Jon32]

Actually, surprise-visits isn't a good idea. I've done several and often it showed that there was a husband/boyfriend who didn't seemed overwhelmed to meet his GF's ex gringo-romance. However I have to say that their BF's and husbands acted in a very civilized way.

No offense, great posts, great stories, great information on Brazil...

But how the hell could a surprise visit ever be a good idea!

Now on that note, I will be checking out santa catarina state in end of 2010. Sperto inspired me to check out these small villages and see what is cooking there. Home base will be Floripa.

I was here for three nights on a birdwatching trip. It wasn't until night 3 I found anywhere (language barrier?). The place was called Arlett's bar. Just off the beach (I think Pereque Beach) a little east and north of downtown Ubatuba. It opened at 8 and was clearing out at 11:00, mostly locals just talking to the girls (and buying drinks). I got there at nine and there were 2 or 3 pretty hot girls out of maybe 6. Price was 150R including room (next door). The girl I had was great, took the phone off the hook after an hour and we had an hour and a half. A downside was girls asked for expensive drinks.

Greetings Gents

São José Dos Campos is rarely on the board and I can see why this is the case. I was looking for some info on some previously reported locations and massage parlors but no one responded.

I was there in June and here is how I can sum it up. The private houses reported previously dont appear to be in operation. I checked these addresses and it appears that families are now living there so I can't comment on that any further. Massage parlors are available but due to schedule I was not able to sample any so I will leave comments to others who had a chance to use their services.

The street action is plentyfull. When it gets dark, there are many gems working the main street into town. You don't need a car to monger there, just take a walk and you will see some hotties hanging out there looking for action. If you are patient, you can end up with a fresh, young, and good looking girl that will rock your world for an hour or so. The damage is R50 for the girl and R13 for the room in one of the hourly motels along the strip.

I will be back in a couple of months and look forward to seeing some new talents on the strip.

Cheers

Anyhow browsing your posts it seems that until now you've only managed to fill up twelve pages of rambling, semi-coherent questions and inquiries...maybe you should stop posting again until you get some balls and actually travel.

There is a popular saying in my country literally translates: "if before traveling a man travels with his mind he will do a wonderful travel".
I'm asking so many questions because Brazil is a huge country.
