Sao Paulo Reports

I have both Google Fi and T-Mobile but I also get local SIM. It appears 5 G is available in part of the city. The higher download speed is 5 G, and the lower one is WiFi.

Never heard of these sites before and I've done my homework before. These looks scams to me. Try mclass, private55, clubmodel. Those are fairly legit.

Yeah, girls that advertise on the legit sites like mclass, private55, clubmodel, and I would add to the bonafide list Barra Vips, charge more than girls advertising on the cheap bargain sites. Sometimes a lot more, KKK. For example, 2 stunners that I reached out to on ClubModel asked for 1500 br. They were drop dead gorgeous, but I punted.

The main advantage of the higher end quality sites is that you will never have a bait & switch or have a girl drop by that you cannot recognize from her promotion pics. Most girls on the legit sites will ask between 500 br and 700 br unless they are pretty spectacular and thus in super high demand. On my last trip to SP, I arranged a date with one pretty MClass girl. Her price was 500 br at her apartment. The session was great. She was a very friendly girl. On looks, she was a little older than her picks, but obviously the same girl. I knew that would most likely be the case when she quoted me 500. KKK.

So, I prefer to meet my girls in the boates where there is a wide selection and I can check the girls out in person and test drive them before making any commitments beyond buying them a drink. Many quality call girls show up at the boates when they have no customers online. That is how I met an attractive ClubModel branca one night at Bomboa. Her price was 700 br at Bomboa and she was worth it. After our first in-house session we met several more times at my hotel and on our last session together she brought over a girlfriend, and we enjoyed a true bisexual 3 way. You can try to set things like that up on the internet, but it won't work out as great if you don't get to know the girls in person first.

Some Airbnb in SP are within a hotel, so you get lower rate with security. If you look around and see the pictures of the Airbnb, you will see similar pictures of the hotels. As far as girl friendly, you have to ask the host. Some will say no visitor on their ads, some doesn't say.

Overall did you find airbab safe?

Hi guys,

I have been hearing good hype about Renaissance. Is it worth it? Last time I stayed at San Mercure Ibirapuera and that worked out just fine with half the price of Renaissance.

Also. Just in general, what are the best ways to find cheaper hotel deals for place like Renaissance?

While I am exploring stay options, how about staying at Airbnb near Renaissance and just go to Renaissance for drinks and get the goodies there? Are Airbnb's safe and easy to find GF friendly? Airbnb's are like dirt cheap -- 60 USD per night.

Let me be honest. If you are happy with the the Mercure or an AirBnB, then choose that option. There is nothing exciting about the Renaissance unless you have status with Marriott which gets you lounge access and even then I wouldn't get too excited about that. The "goodies" are also not worth paying for. They charge absurd rates because they cater to the gringos. If you can stay around that area, it is a good safe area at night and has lots of places to eat and drink.

Save the cash for the hotel and use at clinicas or Scandello. Only reason I stay at the Renaissance is to maintain my elite status and the company pays for my rooms.

Those websites have similar format and might be run by the same operator.

For those that have used them, are they reliable with accurate pictures?

I edited a short FullHD video of a very representative room from a Sao Paulo classy hotel. Lets call it, the battlefield.

It has the original audio from the moment:

Hope it takes you to the place.

Are you sure? Have you tried the Vasco shirt and bombeiro khaki pants/shorts combo?



But seriously, w/r to Portuol, here's a decent channel recommend by a another BM, to avoid those Portuguese/Spanish homonyms and other faux pas.

Maybe I need to try the combination you suggested 🤣129315;.

As far as speaking of other non-native languages, I have this problem even in my native Indian language. Living in the USA for 35+ years, I am now considered an outsider whenever I go to India. I know enough of the language to get around but never going to be considered a local no matter how much I brush up on it. Same with Spanish and Portuguese. But I feel that it is the attempt at speaking and trying to blend in that the locals appreciate. I try to communicate in their language as much as possible and sometimes, they will practice their English with me and we communicate in two languages.

This article from February 2022 states that only 1 quarter of all payments in Brazil are contactless (might be higher in a big city like Sao Paulo or Rio). ...

It's 100% everywhere that accept credit card in Sao Paulo because it is built into the device. The only place that I encountered an issue is All Sabor Gastronmico across from Uruguaiana metro station in Rio. They have the machines but the wireless reception is bad for some reason so they have to move around to get reception.

Hi EverythingBlue,

Sure, if they are just random pictures of the place and not a portrait, I just say "can I take a picture?" (posso tirar uma foto? If you're going to make a shoot you'll need a talent's release or at least a simple receipt bill with the persons signature and 18+ ID (already verfied by hotel when check in). If you're going to make an entire week of productions, you'll need a contract for sure. Like we do.

It took almost 20 years to speak fluent portuguese. But my personal advice is to hear brazilian news all time, brazilian music in the background and read newspapers (it applies for the languages you're learning). I buy paper newspapers when I'm in Brazil so I can be up with the local news and have conversations with people.

By the way, brazilian polititians and local stars go very often to the clubs mentioned on ISG.

Awesome report and time stamps. I enjoyed reading the play by play of your action, sometimes you can't wait for them to get wet, I spit if I have to but when it needs to go in it needs to go in LOL.

How do you approach the girls to get all the action on camera? You negotiate each time using google translate? Sometimes I wonder if it's only a North America thing where girls are so camera shy, I haven't faced this in Colombia or Brazil yet.

I can't wait to go back to SP and check if my credit cards work LOL. Just kidding, cash is king dammit!

Went to Cafe Photo around 9 pm on Wednesday. Definitely more girls than on Saturday, including a few options which looked good. Upon closer inspection, one of the options had a huge butt / thighs which I don't like, the other option was taken by an older guy before I walked in, and the third option didn't quite have the right look in her eyes. Specifically, she didn't know how to make eye contact and generally seemed new to this. That and the crappy live music (much worse than the recorded stuff), and I decided not to risk it and leave.

Which leads me to my conclusions about Cafe Photo. It's a great place with a lot of potential, but a lot of the girls are new and they don't know how to behave properly yet. They don't know how to dress without looking uncomfortable in evening wear, or how to wear colors that don't emphasize the large, unbalanced posteriors common in Brazil. Only a few of the girls, older mostly, know how to make eye contact properly (and likely by extension how to talk with a man). This might be a good place if you're looking to find someone new, a diamond in the rough, but for me I think this place is a visit in a few months to see if it improves.

I went to Scandallo afterwards and was immediately overwhelmed by a different kind of problem, namely too many good options. This is the right kind of problem a place should have. I ended up seeing someone I met last week, having both excellent conversation in my broken Portuguese and a great time in the rooms. We agreed to see each other for lunch on the weekend. If she wasn't there that evening, there were at least 3-5 other decent looking options, a few of which probably wouldn't work out due to irreconcilable differences in personality. Scandallo remains a mostly sure bet (during Tuesday-Thursday).

For T-Mobile, you can get better download speed by adding on MAXup data to your Magenta Unlimited Plan for an additional $15 a month. Then of course they have several one-time international passes you can get at various price tiers. I've found that just maxing up on the data is good enough for me.

Thanks for the tip. I will try T-Mobil MaxUp first when I return to SP in October. I can always upgrade to T-Mobil's International Pass if MaxUp is not fast enough for my needs. I just hate waiting and waiting for internet pages to load with the T-Mobi's basic service in foreign countries. In the USA Magenta Unlimited's speed is excellent.

I don't get too hung up on trying to learn perfect Portuguese. It isn't like I am ever going to be a considered a Brazilian anyway. No matter what kind of shirt I wear 😜.

Are you sure? Have you tried the Vasco shirt and bombeiro khaki pants/shorts combo?

I speak close to fluent Spanish so I mix it with Portuguese and speak "portunol" which works great for me at bars, restaurants and everywhere else. Usually, I tell the speaker if they are speaking English to speak Portuguese so I can get better at understanding it.

But seriously, w/r to Portuñol, here's a decent channel recommend by a another BM, to avoid those Portuguese/Spanish homonyms and other faux pas.
