[QUOTE=Anaggie;2656224]I will be in rio on the 3rd only and will be in Buzios for the weekend. I then fly back to SP on Saturday and back home on Sunday. All my trips to Brazil are for work with a weekend thrown in for fun😜.[/QUOTE]No worries, Just curious, why Buzios? More action there? Or for personal / work related stuff.
[QUOTE=SinjinSwift;2655889]Just an FYI that you only need an antigen test within 24 hours of the first leg of your flight. I ordered my test online through Qured and took the test via video. It was fantastic! And very reasonable. I think I paid $30 or so.
Basically they send you a test and email you a code. You schedule your video appt with that code that they email you. You take the test via video with one of their staff, then photograph the test with your ID and upload it. They then generate a travel certificate for you. It's beautiful.
Basically you only need three things:
-- vaccination proof.
-- COVID test (I recommend antigen, per my comment above).
-- Travel health declaration, basically a form you fill out online from the Brazilian gov't gathering data about your vaccination status, etc.
All these things are super easy. The covid test verbiage can be a little intimidating, as I didn't know if the online antigen test would be accepted. Based on the description for the travel requirements, I thought it would and I was right.[/QUOTE]Have it ready when getting off the plane, the lane ushers wants to see it before letting you get in the immigration line.
[QUOTE=SinjinSwift;2656222]I flew American Airlines as well. They partner with a company that has an app to collect your info ahead of time. You must upload the info to this app before you can get your boarding pass.[/QUOTE]Flew Copa to BR twice, the line usher takes pictures of your docs with what seems like their private phones so they can send it to their office. Seems like a privacy issue holding this information on their private phones. Took 20 minutes to check in with the agent, while with American carriers took me 2 minutes.
[QUOTE=Nounce;2655899]Does this fee show up on the receipt from the club? I always choose Reals and I don't remember seeing it. My credit card does not charge any fee for international charge.[/QUOTE]The receipt just shows the total charge. Before it asks you real or usd it asks to confirm the 6.5% conversion fee and does not show you the exact conversion rate. If using an ATM card, it has no fees.
Credit cards always say no international fees but the fine print tells you how they convert currencies and usually they take the lowest rate of the day but some use some cards use other exchange rate calculations which in effect is a fee.

No doubt you'll, enjoy Buzios. It's a really beautiful and exceptional place to spend a weekend (albeit a bit pricey).
It would be nice and very appreciative w/r to brief update on Buzios, should you have the energy and indulgence to do so (If not, also no worries).
[QUOTE= CervejaGelada;2656282] No worries, Just curious, why Buzios? More action there? Or for personal / work related stuff.[/QUOTE]
It is a beach resort town, known for it's European Mediterranean like beach town vibe, frequented by and known (at least in the past) as "the playground for the rich and uber rich Brazilians". It is located about 3 hours away from Rio.
It is a non-mongering destination (better to bring the "weekend-wife"), but P4P-action can be found using your 'go to fav' online sources like Tinder or Photo Acompanhantes (Buzios): [URL]https://www.photoacompanhantes.com/acompanhantes/buzios [/URL]
Basically lots of beach, boating, water sports, biking, hiking and other outdoor type activities are available during the day (if that's your thing). The evenings and nights can be characterized (somewhat) as a romantic stroll through historical cobble stone streets, filled with chic shopping, fashion, ice-cream/acai parlors, bars and culinary cuisines at restaurants that cater to most tastes (vegetarian included). And enough pizza parlors to satisfy simpler tastes.
Good place to interact with various peoples from many nationalities.

Never done this type of thing so I am going to try it out and see how we do together in a different place.

When you bring the clinica girls back to your place, what is your usual arrangement?[/QUOTE]For the lower end Clinica girls, I have offering 400 r for 2 hours at my place. This is more than their hourly take in the CLínica to entice the girls to come. You can probably offer less as every girl I have offer this to have taken it without counter offer. Well, one girl ask me to pay for Uber. I am very picky and offer to take home girls who are very high on my ratings. I can penny pince but why bother. The girls are happy to get the money and almost all offer more GFE than I experienced with them in the clinicas.
[QUOTE=Anaggie;2656381]Was planning on it. Where should I post it?[/QUOTE]Thanks! That would be great, as I haven't been back in years and would love to know what your brief general take is on things.
Personally, the "Other Areas" thread is pretty good place and then links in the SP or RJ threads, if you need to have tangential references w/r to the queries that my pop up in those threads.
Just MHO, but its up to you. :)

If you don't, then I would recommend reading a few pages back and there are some discussion of the hotels. I personally always stay at the Renaissance. It is in a very nice area and is super safe plus extremely GF and also has some WG at the bar downstairs in the evenings.

You just have to decide how much you are willing to pay and in which area you want to stay.
