Sao Paulo Reports

Heck I don't even block MonkeyPaw and he is a complete douche!

I can see how his online persona may give you that impression, but I also observe that none of the senior members that meet him in person say anything negative about him.

[Steve 9696]

Just misses dishing out his misery on others, LOL.

I simply ignore his babble.

P.S., thanks WorldTravel69 for your good work over the years!

Traveller44 has the dubious distinction of being only one of two people I block on ISG. Heck I don't even block MonkeyPaw and he is a complete douche!

I am curious, what motivates someone to boastfully claim they going to henceforth ignore a forum because it offers them nothing and then slinks back several months later to resume sniping?

I have been to 74 countries. I have maps and lists for lots of them to help us all.

You've got me beat WT69. You have to turn your total around to get to my current total of 47, but hopefully I'm not finished yet. The rest of us world travelers appreciate your effort over the years. Keep it up! The best and most useful So Paulo map I have ever seen was created by Nordico. Wish he would make it available always for all Sampa mongers.

So, now tell which places are wrong, so we can help everyone.

Yes, I have been to Brazil many times, but I never have been to Sao Paulo.

I usually like to make a list of places, so I don't go to places that are closed when I get there.

My friend use to write directions on napkins. They were hard to read, so I decide to make Lists and then maps

He's unhappy, because his favourite clinica is missing; Clinica Enjoy Spa, Rua Condessa do Pinhal, 279.

There has been SP maps made previously. Yours is full of errors. Why do it at all when you do not have personal knowledge of locations and places? At least do your part properly, so the others can add information but not made corrections but if you not know anything, just leave it. Multiple location errors (area), non existing place added, one popular clinica is missing, wrong price written, wrong opening hours written.

If you actually get all this done, I will salute you and keenly await your report in any case.

You'll be tempted to use the BsAs leg to rest up I think. Or you'll meet a paulista who will enchant you enough to make you forgo the rest of the schedule. There are worse things in life.

But you have hit the main mongering modalities for sure.

I found the food at scandallo to be fairly good. On par with the hotel food I ate at the Hilton and the Intercontinental. Like everything there, not cheap, but you're using up your consumao.

Hb.

I didn't need any food to blow through my consumable. Some drinks for me and some for my girls and poof it was gone. It's expensive but great fun. And when you compare worldwide value it actually isn't even expensive!

Be. I'm going to stay Mercure Moema Times Square for 2 nights Fri / Sat and Mercure Jardins for 2 night Tues / Wed. The Mercure hotels are chica friendly and I don't have to register the girl when they come? Or I don't have to pay extra, just need to register the girls name and my name?

See. I'm landing at 1030 pm will the atms at the airport be open after 1030 pm?

There's a bradesco bank with atms that you can pillage (that's how google translates that Portuguese word, not even kidding) with a foreign ATM card. At least mine worked in it. It's right across the street from Mercure. Av. Ibirapuera, 2220 - Indianópolis, São Paulo. SP, 04029-000.

A. is the Steak sandwich good at Scandallo? I just keep thinking it has onions and garlic sauce all over it and I can't fathom DFK when I eventually pick the Scandallo girl. (Maybe I should eat the sandwich after I CIM to the girl).

FWIW the bathrooms in Scandalo have dental floss and mouthwash dispensers. As do many high end eateries in SP.

Ok friends, I plan on going to Buenos Aires during the middle of my Sao Paolo trip. I know it sucks there, but since I'm just 2 hours flight away and $250 US round trip airfare. I just got to see the city and the sucky mongering scene since I'm so close by. But the point of this post is. Does my 10 night itinerary look all right.

Fri Jan 25 land 1030 pm GRU airport. Stay at Moema Mercure hotel since they are chica friendly. Go to Casarao at 1 am and enjoy.

Sat Jan 26 1 pm visit to Tangara massage.

Sat Jan 26 11 pm visit to Casarao.

Sun Jan 27 - incall or outcall with a whatsapp contact / independent provider. Feel free to PM me an awesome whatsapp contact, or 2 or 3, or 5. Hopefully one of them is available that Sunday.

Fly to Buenos Aires Sun night to Tue afternoon. I will see the nacho libre guy. (actually tejanolibre is his handle name).

Tues Jan 29 - go to Scandallo 11 pm (scandallo is better on weeknights).

Wed Jan 30 - see an independent or twitter or whatsapp contact in the afternoon.

Wed Jan 30 - go to Bomboa 11 pm (bomboa is better on weeknights).

Thurs to Sunday. Go to Iguaza Falls.

Sun Feb 3 - Brooklin Massage or Tangara at 1 pm.

Sun Feb 3 - Sunday night. See a independent / twitter / whatsapp contact before I flyhome next morning.

I've got a couple of weird questions.

A. is the Steak sandwich good at Scandallo? I just keep thinking it has onions and garlic sauce all over it and I can't fathom DFK when I eventually pick the Scandallo girl. (Maybe I should eat the sandwich after I CIM to the girl).

See. I'm landing at 1030 pm will the atms at the airport be open after 1030 pm?

The. And if anything sounds like a bad idea in my 10 night itinerary feel free to let me know what might be better idea.

E. also I'm down to meet anybody for drinks or quick bite to eat somewhere or someone to go to Scandallo or Casarao with.

The reason is pretty simple. Sao Paulo is a city of commerce, the center of all commerce in Brazil. Every week businessmen from all over Brazil and other countries arrive in Sao Paulo for several days of work. Many arrive on Monday and leave on Friday afternoon. They have money to spend. Their nights to play are Tue-Wed-Thursday. On Friday they leave. That explains the T-W-T peak.

What about locals you ask? The big clubs are just too expensive for most locals who also have much cheaper options available to them. Some locals naturally will visit the big clubs once in a while but weekends are usually for girlfriends or wives. Clinicas and Casarao are open on weekends for those who have free time and $.

Yes, it's similar to why a top termas like 4 x4 in Centro Rio has always closed on weekends. It's easier for the working boys to play on weekdays. Weekends are for wives, girlfriends and family stuff.

Sounds like mostly a marvelous plan. Just keep in mind 11 is still pretty early in SP. LOL. It will get busier later.

I was at a Mercure in campinas and they made them register and charged a 25 R fee per girl (was a duo). I'the be surprised if you didn't have to register er her.

I would guess the airport ATM is still open. Key tip worldwide is a lot of ATMs in airports ask if you want them to do the currency conversion. They present this as the primary choice. It is always a bad deal. Take the option that is your home bank doing the conversion and you will get market rate.

[Member #4732]

Kind of a bummer and quite odd that these places are busier on the weekdays. Are people going somewhere else on the weekend? Do the girls work during the week and take the weekend off? So backwards. Can't even wrap my head around why.

The reason is pretty simple. Sao Paulo is a city of commerce, the center of all commerce in Brazil. Every week businessmen from all over Brazil and other countries arrive in Sao Paulo for several days of work. Many arrive on Monday and leave on Friday afternoon. They have money to spend. Their nights to play are Tue-Wed-Thursday. On Friday they leave. That explains the T-W-T peak.

Some locals naturally will visit the big clubs once in a while but weekends are usually for girlfriends or wives. Clinicas and Casarao are open on weekends for those who have free time and $.

Furthermore, its a self reinforcing cycle. Everyone knows the big clubs are better T-W-T so everyone plans to go then if possible. Additionally, there is no advantage to going to these clubs when they are not busy because the girls are not going to "be on sale" just because there are fewer clients.

My Suggestion is to go to Iguazu Falls from B. A. See both sides of the falls from the top and then
take the boat trip close to the bottom of the falls, and fly from there to back to Sao Paulo.

You should save a day of flying that way.
