Sao Paulo Reports

[LvHobby]

Landed in SP and checked into the JW Marriott. It's next to Parque the Cidade so you can shop and there are decent restaurants and a food court. Wasn't in the mood for anything fancy just yet so went to the food court and headed over to Prime for the afternoon.

Walking in the little outside area, I saw Lucy sitting with Laisy. I said Hi and talked a bit and then went inside to talk to the desk lady who called for a presentation. Only 4 girls came out. It was about 2 PM. There was one branca loira with big silicone tits and a tight body, but the cutest one there was Lucy so I went back outside and started talking to her. She speaks English. She is super cute. Some tats on her face that she is getting removed. Went in for a 30. Slid behind her and she melted into me and turned back to start kissing and it was on from there. Great service. I rate her a 7. Good way to start.

I headed back to my hotel. I had scheduled with Lia before I came out so she was set to arrive at about 4 PM. She showed up right on time and I met her outside and we went up. She looks like a tiny school girl. Had short shorts, a tank top, and a backpack. If you like spinners, she is perfect. Not an ounce of fat. Pretty delicious body and big cute eyes. Good service. Delicious moans, and got a bit louder in various positions. I rate her an 7-8 as well.

Needed some rest (I don't sleep well on planes and after 17 hours of travel I needed rest). So after getting the frustration out I relaxed a bit.

The following night I had called Sophie Magnezyta. She is all over as a social media influencer with Twitter, Instagram, OF, and Privacy. I had her meet me at the shopping and we walked into the side entrace and avoided the lobby and lounge and went straight up to the room. Had a nice smooch in the elevator and then continued in the room. I ate her out and she got very wet. I said I wanted to fuck and she just looked at me and I was a bit confused so I asked if she had a cover. She didn't. She looked in her purse and didn't. She was rummaging through her phone saying we need to go to a pharmacy and I'm thinking this whole encounter is going south and I'm going to get scammed. But I'm standing behind her and she starts grinding against me and starts kissing me again and so my cock is rubbing her ass and her pussy and I just slip it in and she lets out a moan. The next 40 minutes was some of the best non-stop fucking I have had in a long time. IoP was off the charts. Sounds, tastes, she is hot as fuck, and does this little lip biting that is sexy. We went to the couch, we fucked on the desk, we went back to the bed. I was drained. Slept damn good that night.

Decided to head to Casarao. Lots of 5's and a only a few 8's. They were asking for quite a bit of money. From $650 to $1 K. I spoke to Evelyn for a bit when I first walked in but told her I wanted to walk around first. Her face iooks like Stacy Kiebler and she is really thin but still has an ample ass. After about 40 minutes, nothing good was showing up so I told her she's the best looking girl in there and I'd give her $500 for an hour. Multiple pops, DFK, BBBJ, etc. She said $650 and I walked. But she was not having any luck so whenever she went by our eyes locked. She finally said, OK, let's go. So we went. Not the best but still pretty damn good. Decent BBBJ but nearly as good as Sophie's. LFK turned into DFK but I noticed a bit of smoker's breath but it wasn't that bad. Good moans and she was game for any position and we pounded for 40 minutes straight and then she took a shower and then I took a shower because we were both sweating by then. Then we chatted for a bit and she showed me some cool places to visit and we shared whatsapp and connected via Insta.

Then shit got weird and I got myself ripped off a bit but it's OK. My phone wouldn't connect to a service and I couldn't get Uber to work. I tried turning the radio off and on. I tried rebooting. WTF. So I go across the street and hop into a taxi and I ask how much to get back to the JW? It should have been are $50-60. He wanted are $130. Fuck me. But I got no other options so I agree. Then about 5 minutes into the ride my stupid phone decides it wants to start working again. WTF. Oh well, not a big deal.

Heading to Rio tomorrow morning.

[KCK12]

This is my report of the spot at 57 Friends and club at Moema near Congonhas airport. I entered on Friday 6 pm, very early. There was an old blonde lady at the reception which handles all the business there. No entrance fee was charged to me which I think was strange or it it's normal. They ask if you want to see the girls show to you. At this time there were around 9 girls. Most of them were between 22-29 with exceptions going to 35. All of them wore sexy dresses which I could see their tight young bodies. Fees ranged before 8 pm 1 hour 330 reais half hour 240. Rooms included in the service. Unfortunately I had ALOT of troubles with paying with CC. My credit card can't pass through their only point of sale which meant I either have cash or pix. Pix is impossible because of foreigner status. And here is where it comes the biggest SUPRISE FOR THE ENTIRE NIGHT. I expected to leave and gave the old woman a warm goodbye in Portuguese, I was with my friend but only I spoke Portuguese. She asked me if I had cash and I said yeah. Told her I had dollars which she honestly accepted at a great exchange rate, even better than airport currency exchanges.

Spent some time playing 8 ball at the tables near. Sadly I couldn't chose the girl I wanted because she was already booked. My friend had to leave early for return so we exited the place with no action on my behalf. Late at night 4 to 8 women come to the club to work. Early there isn't a lot of talent. This concludes my journey in SP. I was there for just one day but wished I could experience going to Casarao or Scandallo and get a fine piece for the entire night. Next trip I will aim for this.

[DonMoscow]

Casarao. There are advantages to going early, before 11 p. It opens at 10 p. There are groups of local Asians who come early and swoop in picking up many of the young spinners. They would sit and drink for a while on the downstairs sofas and sometimes take them out for the entire night. Normally I wouldn't mind as there are plenty of girls, but these girls are exactly my type. Sometimes if I can, I would get there early and watch the girls walk in.

The Asians you mentioned are portu speaking Japanese Brazilians or folks coming straight out of China? Very different groups.

[Lalabo]

Credit card.

In the past, I had a hard enough time trying to match the Clinica names to match the credit charges name when it showed up.

The clinicas in Moema and Scandallo, Casarao talked about here show up on my card.

I don't think the ones you have listed are from Scandallo because the charges on my CC for the last 3+ years were with a different name.

I will just say that Scandallo club charge on CC appears as a restaurant charge that doesn't identifying the club's name. The room charge appears as lodging again without identifying the name of the club.

[Lalabo]

That's a great strategy Tochka! I'm an early bird guy and don't like to wait until late to see who is on the stroll. So, you're saying it's OK to actually hang around on the hotel side without having to pay anything to be in there? If that's true then I would definitely do that and go after the ones I like before they even hit the main stroll!

I always saw a security guard in front of the next-door hotel allowing only girls or guys accompanied by a girl to enter. So, I am bit skeptical about men alone being allowed to enter. Then again, its Tochka we are talking about! Anything is possible 😉.

[Blakman]

Each country that I have mongered in while I enjoy variety, I tend to like to see a good portion of black women to see that perfect ass in my eyes. So the question will I see this in scandallo and casarao in decent numbers or just a few. And where can I go to see in good numbers. Should I include rio in my travels or Sao Paulo is enough for two weeks and do Rio on a next trip.

[TattooedTuna]

Thanks for the info!

Just a note, the visa requirement for US nationals starts in April 2025 according to this:

https://br.usembassy.gov/message-for...ement-to-2025/.

Haha, that was a typo! I knew it was happening this year, just didn't register that we're already in 2025. Time's flying too fast! I'll correct it in my next update. Thanks for the catch!

[TattooedTuna]

Very impressive work, TT. I reminded me of planning my 1st trip to FKK land 12+ years ago by reading the forum. The German FKK forum had enough info for me to plan a 2-week trip without asking a single question on this forum. I commend you for putting the time & effort reading through the forum instead of taking the lazy route.

Appreciate that! Doing the research has been half the fun—feels like putting together a treasure map, haha. Definitely better than asking the same questions over and over. 12+ years ago? That's some OG-level planning! Cheers!

[The Cane]

Yup, I saw the group of guys downstairs scooping up cuties early. My type differs from theirs. However The boss's move is to go next door to the hotel FIRST before 11 pm to watch them check in their purses. There is a double line of garotas getting security checked into the hotel to drop off their stuff and add their purses to the wall of puta bags. They use the large mirrored wall with the seated bench, to put on their makeup & change into sexy outfits, use the bathroom to change. I have seen them transform from GND to the glamorous illusion of sexy hotness in a few minutes. I scooped up fine sweet new garotas BEFORE they entered Casarao. I am sharing this in case the early birds before 11 pm dudes want to check it out. I just don't give a crap enough to go early 1 am for me works fine. And ruining the illusion of passion IoP peeking behind the curtain to see the real deal eventually sucks. It is an opportunity to see the fresh young 21 year old natural beauties or newbie GDP before everyone else.

That's a great strategy Tochka! I'm an early bird guy and don't like to wait until late to see who is on the stroll. So, you're saying it's OK to actually hang around on the hotel side without having to pay anything to be in there? If that's true then I would definitely do that and go after the ones I like before they even hit the main stroll! I wouldn't care about "losing the illusion" either. It would be a turn on for me actually to see the "girl next door" turn herself into an "anal hoor"!

This is how some boates, clinicians, and centro massage in Rio joints show up on my credit card.

King Tavern,

Matrix / Matrix Hqs.

Novo espao Morumbi.

Serv Center,

Mnc cosmetics,

Estdio servio.

Infoshopping.

W estdio,

Amanda Silva Gama.

Now figuring out which place is scandallo or prime Clinica is half the fun. NOT kkkk.

The man has done his homework. He's going to have a great time!

This place and Scandello sound amazing. Can't wait to be there in about 4 weeks.

What time does the queue outside Casaro start building up? Most on here say don't arrive before 11 pm, but it seems a queue forms quite soon after this?

Seems from what I read that at Casaro you are usually looking at a 20 minute wait for a room. That's a lot of small talk and borderline awkward if you speak naff all Portuguese.

Maybe I'm overthinking it and I'm sure all will be fine!

(oh and thanks for the dress code mention. That was me asking).

Casarao. There are advantages to going early, before 11 p. It opens at 10 p. There are groups of local Asians who come early and swoop in picking up many of the young spinners. They would sit and drink for a while on the downstairs sofas and sometimes take them out for the entire night. Normally I wouldn't mind as there are plenty of girls, but these girls are exactly my type. Sometimes if I can, I would get there early and watch the girls walk in.
