Rio de Janeiro Reports

[QUOTE=Bravo;2366246] I spoke to one who mentioned that Marcelo (Young dark skin brasilian who claimed that he grew up in NYC was dead) Marcelo used to work MP / Help every day. He spoke excellent english, so he would hustle the brothers for a few dollars offering to translate or hook them up with different girls. I knew he was going thru some rough imes ever since he got divorced but I was hocked to hear that he had passed away. Anyone know if this is true?[/QUOTE]Wow, sad if it's true. Haven't seen him in recent trips (within the last year or 2). Cool dude.

[QUOTE=Balboa;2368020]First photo of Monte Carlo.

Second one in Solarium.

I havent been to Centaurus lately, though I know its a little more costly, and 4x4 is a little less.[/QUOTE]Thank you for the reply, I can't see theses pics clearly. When were they taken? Would you be so kind as to give me an idea of the cost in numbers -basic room 1 girl -thank you in advance.

Prices are high! I've not been to Rio in 5 years, but I think I will stick to the clinicas in Sao Paulo at 150-250 per hour.

Basically a program with one girl, 40 min, including entrance, the room, the girl, runs between 500-600 reais, depending on the particular Terma and if you’re paying by cash or card.

[QUOTE=Bravo;2366246]I went to the brasilian parade in NYC yesterday, it was fucking packed with people. I have never seen that many people like yesterday! Oddly, I only saw about 4 former GDPs, normally, I see many girls that I knew from Copa, but very few in attendance yesterday. I spoke to one who mentioned that Marcelo (Young dark skin brasilian who claimed that he grew up in NYC was dead) Marcelo used to work MP / Help every day.

I saw and talked to Marcelo the other night at Mabs (just happened to run into him). He's alive and well.

I took a pict of their price list a few days ago and it's as follows: 270 r -30 minutes Cabine, 390 r-1 HR Suite, 450 r-1 HR Super Suite, 520 r- 1 HR Colectivo, 600 r- 90 mins Suite Rei, 650 r- 90 minutes Suite Sultao, 700 r- 1 HR Suite 2 x1. $60 r entrance waived if you take a girl before 6 pm. I have no idea about any of those suites besides the basic cabine for 270 R, so don't ask me what they mean. LOL. They also don't charge extra if you use a card like other places do.

Doce vita Mabs? That's it?

That's it?[/QUOTE]Besides Dolce Vita, there is Casa Blanca on Rua Duvivier, which is around the corner from Dolce Vita (opposite of the corner where the park is located). There is also Kalabria on Belfort Roxo, across from the park that's between Dolce Vita and Mab's, next to the Bob's. Barbarella's, Sensoo and Ciccolina (has a new name now that starts with M) are all in that general vicinity close to Mabs. If you are in that area, plenty of dudes passing out flyers trying to get customers to those spots.

I don't have any experience at these spots, but those are some of the available night options in Copa, beside Mab's.

[QUOTE=Ee2002;2368931] Ciccolina (has a new name now that starts with M) are all in that general vicinity close to Mabs.[/QUOTE]Ciccolina is now called Marrakech Cafe. I popped in with some locals, one night, last month. They don't have a lot of seating. They Now have 2 back rooms to use with the GDP"s there. There were maybe 8 GDP's. Strip shows every 45 min, more or less. It's dead before 12 a, gets busier around 2 a. Because one of locals knew the door man, they didn't hit us with the cover charge.

I am going to be in Rio shortly and I was curious if there are any clubs where you can pick up escorts, like the old days at Help. Has any club taken over the HELP scene?

If Brazilians don't know any better, then a foreigner does not stand a chance.

[QUOTE=MongerForSex;2369991]This video is fake.[/QUOTE]This particular video may be fake but the fact that thieves steal phones from Brazilians (firsthand knowledge of one instance at gun point and many others) and tourists (firsthand knowledge of many) is not.

They usually have scouts who travel by motor and identify easy victims then contact the actual thief who knocks it out of the victim's hand, picks it up and runs. My Brazilian maid was hit on the head and hers stolen. My Brazilian girlfriend had hers stolen while she was talking to me. In Brazil I only use cheap Brazilian phones.
