Is Brazil trying to kill its tourist industry? CPF
Cannot do anything without a CPF. Bus ticket to Buzios? No. Airline ticket? No. Yet OK to check into a hotel without it. So instead of R80 for the bus I took a private car for 200. Not bad value I suppose.
Is the bus company https://www.autoviacao1001.com deliberately trying to kill tourists as customers? Bizarre. I did not try going to the bus station, the web site is your typical rigid data field validation model (irrespective of reality or how asinine) fetishized by disconnected management and owners of the business. No CPF, no sale. No override. Probably I could just front up and pay cash, but they radiate hostility to cash paying customers. Any clues on how this works - or not - gratefully received.
Mr Enternational is indeed correct about lame massage. Meanwhile, I witnessed a foul mouthed (wh) ore flinging abuse and throwing shit at some guy. It is reminder that underneath their practiced smiles and cooing most of the ladies do not like their work or customers. Funny thing is that the more he laughed at her, then a couple of other guys joined in the merriment, one crazy chick turning red and free entertainment for the boys.
