Some questions
Hello All!!
I have read a lot and learned a lot for my visit to saopaulo in 4 days, I still have some questions I'the like to ask you if you could please help me:
1. - I will be staying at wyndham sao paulo berrini. Gaugin Club is just one block away, walking all the way on berrini, so my question here is: will it be safe to WALK from my hotel and back at night? Its just one block but is better to be safe, what do you think? It seems like a nice area.
2. - for what I've read my best option for a budget visit is visit scandallo to see quality but I won't pay any girl since its too expensive, therefore I believe my best bet will be going to "massage clinicS", so far I thing 57, moema prime, do patrao, miruna and abbobara will be the ones visiting. Of course take an uber.
Would you recommend any other?
PM me if you are in town from Sept. 10 to 15th.
THanks a lot to all the fellow mongers and the kind sharing of information.

There is an OKKO convenience store and also a small supermarket close to there. the Terrazza Rooftop Bar is quite nice if you have a date. For Gaugin I highly recommend doing onsite. I've have issues half the time when I bring them back (I. E. Change price). If you go before a certain time, 7 pm I believe, it's a bit cheaper.
2 - I like the ones that you mentioned as I prefer 'mid range. ' There are lower range ones like Yankin and higher range ones like Lotus Lounge. Again, my preference is the same as yours, so I'd personally stick with those (best balance of talent, price, and comfortable rooms). Also, Moema is very safe and you can walk between many of the clinicas (short to medium walking distance).

I have stayed at the Hilton, the Sheraton, and the Gran Estanplaza Berrini in the Naes Unidas neighborhood and I can't see there being a problem walking around the block from Gaugin to the Wyndham Berrini late at night. Just don't dawdle and keep your eyes open that's all.
My favorite hotel in the proximate neighborhood is the Grand Hyatt but late at night I would take an Uber from Gaugin because the Hyatt is too far away to hoof it after a few drinks and a night's worth of entertainment IMHO.

Is LOTUS worth it? Maybe I could go and see what's going on.

You pick the girl from the tablet. You have to pay for the session once you talk to the girl. I like Palms the best. The owner is helpful, the facility is very good and consistent and it lets you talk to 2 girls. I also like Shannon because it lets you talk to 3 girls in person.
You won't get discount by subscribing. Only a few clinicas offer discount after you write the review.

[QUOTE=Tochka;3024847]The best largest room at the casarao hotel is room 2. IMHO. Its the door next to the reception desk with all the garotas purses. Looks like a bathroom door kkkkk. It has stairs up to the room. Comfortable for threesomes. Unfortunately got to give the slick ass skinny dude a small tip to get that room, otherwise he assign bros to the far away shitty rooms. The other low numbers 1-10 have a stripper pole in some rooms. The high number rooms greater than 11 to 29 sucks raw eggs -in my drunken opinion.
My flow is different, for Casarao take out, I take the garotas to andar de Cima, colonial, secrets, jabaquara motel to have a pool party, smoke marola, order food.
Sometimes on very busy nights casaro has more fvcking guys in the house than garotas, 🤷127997;8205;9794;65039;.[/QUOTE]Let's meet up Wednesday at Scandello. Check your DMs.

Brasil or Colombia
I had a fantastic experience in both Sao Paolo and Rio in 2024. However, I have always wanted to experience Colombia, but am afraid after reading up on the dangers. I have a stop in Bueno Saires and Bogota, but 14 days of free time in between. Would you who know Latin America advise me to immediately repeat Brazil or explore new areas in Colombia? I can't figure out where in Colombia it is best. I don't like to be afraid, but I'm not a complete wimp and I'm used to traveling. Since I have to go to Bogota for a few days and could stay there longer if I feel like it, would you drop Medellin, Cali, Cartagena? I'm looking for young spinners and don't spend money on older ladies I could get "for free" in Europe. I hope you with experience will give me some good advice. I know tastes are different, but I'm trying to make a plan. I haven't been to Bueno Saires in 10 years and I see from the reports that there have been big changes. In Brazil I always found something I liked every night. And unfortunately I am picky so the hunt is a challenge in places in the world where the really hot ladies are far apart. I have been to Tijuana and although anyone with money will succeed there, it is still the best I have experienced and I have never seen so many sexy girls gathered in one place. My experience in Mexico City was a letdown in comparison. Thanks for any good suggestions.
[QUOTE=DonTony11;3024810]I have a few days to travel next week and am wondering whether I should spend it in Colombia (Medellin) or Brazil (SP vs Rio)? I've been to Rio earlier this year and really enjoyed it. Would love to come back but wondering if its worth an extra 7 hours on the plane as compared to Colombia. Would you guys have recommendations?[/QUOTE]

I arrived with the same preconceived notions about crime and scopolamine. I found both places to be very safe. Obviously there are some areas you might want to be careful at, but in general it's fine. I stayed in Poblado in Medellin and at Parque de LOS Hippies in Bogota. No big deal at either. Walked around even passed midnight at both. There is truly huge expat community in Medellin, mostly Americans, some even opened their own businesses there. Didn't see much of that in Brazil. I heard that you may want to be careful in Medellin Centro but I didn't spent much time there. Next time intent to though.
In regards to scopolamine I know some people that's been scoped and robbed by girls. I tried to pick those that wouldn't do that LOL. But this is a wrong place to talk about Colombia. I said my piece, but I suggest you go to Colombia section. This is Sao Paulo.

Where to exchange money?
Hey guys I am in SP just for short quick 2-3 days. A bit confused on where should I get Brazilian reals from? The ATMs (I went to Santander and banca bradesco) seem to be a ripoff as they are charging 20-25% in fees / conversion etc. Airport exchange rates were also easily jacked up by 20%. Only place I could get a decent (less than 10% fees) was at Travelex in the city. Am I doing something wrong? Where do folks convert money or get Brazilian reals from (which Bank ATM should I go to?) so that I can get a decent exchange rate. Trying to convert 3-4 K USD.

Just Decline

Then you typically get the market rate (depending on your home bank). Bradesco doesn't make it obvious that you don't have to press "accept" to proceed on that rate screen, "decline" works.

Vagabundo concurs. Far too many members of ISG do not contribute, just take information, even on the whatsapp group that I run for rj and sp, though there some talk more. Some who do not even have one post on this forum.
Writing some reports on this site is the coin of this realm.
Not to stoke controversy, vagabundo would never do that, but yesterday at a beach drink with Chicago, Chicago observed that the women at classico beach club were as good as scandallo.

Av. Do Pepê, 1014 - 1014 - Barra the Tijuca, Rio de Janeiro. RJ, 22620-171.
That's your starting point during day, after fucking in a centro prive via metro to get your rio cost per fuck properly calibrated to your heat seeking sidewinder between your legs.
Then.
Pineapple.
Then perola negra or vitrinni.
"Classico Beach Club women as good as Scandallo ".
- Chicago85, a tough grader.
Vagabundo went to Classico Beach Club, posto 2, Barra today with a long time solid wingman, senor Chicago. His main takeaway was "Classico Beach Club women as good as Scandallo " .
Not to bury the lede or lead as the papers say, but that was the main point.
We arrived mid afternoon, 14 h30 or so. We stayed until almost the market close, 17 h local. There were some real 10's, hot brazilian asses and all, some with rings on their fingers as wingman observed, but what the actual fuck does that mean at the go-to afternoon destination of the Perola Negra top tier girls.
So, the usual crawl for the tier 1 terma girls in Barra is:
Daylight, classico beach club (cost for fish sticks and some drinks was 238 r. Vagabundo, being a cheap charlie munger, brings his own mate / sun brewed iced tea, and makes a note to get a nespresso machine, which is how they brew the coffee there, to which vagabundo who was getting ready for 2 hours of jiu jitsu and muay thai later that day was drinking. It was a rare sunny day when the water was too rough for actual swimming.).

Night, pineapple, olegario maciel (we went there last night, and the obvious higher end hoars were sitting next to us, and it would be easy to go for it. Cost for two salmon dinners and a brie appetizer and drinks was 300 r).
[URL]https://www.instagram.com/_pineappleoficial/[/URL]
Vitrinni (or all in).
[URL]https://www.instagram.com/vitrinniloungerj/[/URL]
That's all within walking distance, or as the locals like to do, bike itau. And it's within walking distance of vagabundo's new pad, which costs 60 usd / day first 2 months to account for deposit, and 40 usd / night for the next 10 months on a 1 year lease.
