Salvador

Man,

Salvador really isn't too much of a monger's paradise, however, there are some nice girls to be had, try Casquinha de siri or for a taste of night life, try the fashion Club. Salvador is for relaxation as you noted but not too much for fucking. Try Casquinha di siri for some live entertainment and find a motel closer to the area and spent the night there because taking a cab to barra would cost you.

Enjoy, man.

Yes, I am back again !!!! Ok, so I have been avidly reading the WSG reports again, and am determined to make the most of this place. From what I can tell, it seems my bad luck being in a crap hotel in boring Barra are my problems, not lack of action !!!

Some questions I would REALLY APPRECIATE having the answers to !!!!

Praia Patamares, Pituba and Piata, good for street tail, is that right ?

Is it true that along the bus routes up the coast at night there are plently of hookers standing around (according to El Austriaco), but he was talking about 2002 ???

ITALY ON THE ROAD, please advise me, where is this famous Casquinha do Siri restaurant, and what part of Pelhourino is the Rock in Rio disco in. Is it safe ??? Are the hustlers there as bad at night as in the day, or worse ??? What about the port area I saw today at the bottom of that lift, is there any action down there ???

Whats the best way to go downtown from Barra at night, Taxi, to where ??

MONGER 3

What are BomBarra and Fashion Clubbe, and where are they ??

Anyone know about about Tropicana club and Satellite Club ??

How should you dress if trying to pull some chicks, because in my hotel they told me just shorts, t-shirt, no watch so as not to attract attention, but surely this will also not impress the ladies, especially if you are trying to impress amateurs. How about jeans/slacks and a casual shirt, surely that would be OK ???

Praia Patamares, Pituba and Piata, good for street tail, is that right ?

Anyone else been here, the relax ??? Quote from Azmitgom report ´Afternoon diversion : The "Relax" is situated in Ondina, a bit further north from Barra, rua Baependi 6. Open from 3 pm on, a gate in a pink wall gives you access to a courtyard and then to a lounge with a swimming pool, some tables and a sofa on wich several girls are waiting. I went up with a nice slim morena to a room upstairs, big bed, shower, clean towels, and had a nice session. 150 R$ for the girl, the room and a beer´.

Would appreciate any feedback urgently from you guys, because I am only here until Saturday, and it looks like tonight is also pretty much blown !!!!

Cheers,

Coupe66. Its been awhile, but I suggest you try Pelhourino on Tuesday night. Also, while I didn't visit this place myself, I heard that "Morro de Sao Paulo" has plenty of women. <http://www.morrodesaopaulo.com.br/> You need to take a ferry south from Salvador (across the bay) and then a bus to get there but its not far and might make a nice side trip for 1 or 2 nights. Have fun and send us your report.

[QUOTE=Coupe66]So back to getting laid, here am I going wrong ??? Sorry, but whoever said Barra was the best place to be needs their head examined, it is a boring dump !!![/QUOTE]

I have some further ideas. But after that above comment (which I feel is directed at me), I don't feel like helping you one bit.

Barra is probably the best place to stay, but you need some initiative and get out and do things during the day. Your fault for choosing a lacklustre hotel, mainly.

Salvador is ghetto, get used to it. But it has its charms, too. The people are the best thing and the worst thing about Salvador. Love it or hate it, sometimes both in the same day, and with a passion.

Anyway dude, RTFF. Looks like you just missed the best night at Casquinha (Monday). Talk to some taxi drivers, try some places.

I was in Brasil last year. 3 days in Rio de Janeiro and 5 in Salvador. I met a girl at Casquini de Seri (pardon spelling) and had my best GFE to date. She actually took such a liking to me that when I tried to offer her some loot for her "time" she got upset. She said that she didnt have a "program" and just liked being with me. We satyed out late nights and did things that"couples would do. Downside? I got a hell of a cough when I returned to the States and had to take antibiotics to get rid of it. I dont know if it was the faucet water I unintentionally drank or kissing her. Either way had a great time while I was there and would definetely go back if fuel cost werent so high now. Barra is hands down probably the best place for tourist to stay. GET AN APT. You will not regret it. There is a lot more freedom to be had.

Well guys, I am sitting in an internet cafe in Barra and there is no street tail at all, except the same couple of skinnies I have seen 10 times. Still, I am actually enjoying myself more and relaxing in the atmosphere. If I had come here straight from Europe I would propably be frustrated, but having spent a week prior in Sao Paulo I am not too bad.

I think this is the sort of place you need to spend some real time in to get to know, and then you will have a good time. On the upside, last night I called a couple of chicks from the internet and got a great feeling from them on the phone (better than in Sao Paulo), very friendly and all willing to do BBBJ. Maybe will pop one tonight.

I deliberately did not name anyone who talked up Barra, so please Cachorro, don´t take any offence !!! I personally just find it small and boring.
If I was based in a livelier area, there would be more chance of running into some action.

Anyone heard of the Anne Elk Monty python sketch, with the guy trying to get the lady to give him her new theory about the brontosaurus, and keeps asking her the same question, what is your new theory and she keeps coughing and spluttering and telling him it is her theory and nobody elses, for half an hour, until finally she says, well I won´t ruin it for you. Check it out yourself at [url]http://www.mkandrew.com/CureHepC9.htm[/url] ´ It is hillarious !!!

By the same note, somebody please tell me where is the Casquinha de Siri and the Fashion Club !!!!! I am always willing to give advice where I can, especially for Buenos Aires, Sao Paulo, Belgium, Spain, ask me anything you like !!!!

Cheers,

Coupe 66

There is a Habib fast food by Itapoa in front of the beach and by the Habib is a gas station and casquinha de Siri (sits by the beach) should be opposite or close to gas Station. Problem is it doesn't start happening till late.

If you are in Barra circa Princesa Isabela ST. or BLVD (I cant remember) just catch a taxi from the top of the beach/bottom of Barra. They will take u waaaay out(about 15 to 20 minutes). Just be patient. Its a straight way there and back and any cabbie should know where its at. Pronounced kaskinah de seari. Or something like that. Just write it down and pass it to the cabbie. It should cost about 8-10 to get there. Maybe a little more.

Hey Coupe 66,

Both places are out near towards the aeroclube plaza. Fashion club is very close to Aeroclube Plaza and Casquihna de Siri is out a bit further, maybe 10 minutes. If you haven't been to the plaza, go. Cafe Cancun, Rock in Rio cafe, lots of bars and lots of girls there, too.

Enjoy

Hi Guys,

I'm staying at the Othon Palace (not a great place) and would like to know if there is any p4p near here. I tried Aeroclube around 1PM and Barra shopping center around 5PM but did not find any activity in either place. (Maybe I was there too early?)

As I see it my options are an escort service or one of the nightclubs 15 - 20 minutes away from here. There is also Casquina do Siri which I will probably try tonight (around 8PM?) if no one has a better idea. If anyone has any other ideas I would appreciate hearing them.

Thanks.

Hi all, thanks for your help and your advice. I returned from Salvador to Sao Paulo last saturday. Overall I have to say it was an interesting experience and I am glad I went there, but I am not sure I would return. There are far too many other places in the north east coast of Brazil to explore.

Although I was only there a week, I am someone who has travelled a great deal and think I am quite a good judge of people. For some reason, the average person in the Salvador area is not very friendly. Maybe it is too hot, maybe they are too conservative, catholic, who knows ?? There are sexy looking girls everywhere, but it is very hard to attract their attention, more difficult than most other places I have ever visited, honestly !!!! I have spoken to other tourists there, who also told me that they found the locals much more unfriendly than in Natal or reciefe, for example. Therefore, what is the point in being somewhere, if you just can admire the women, and have no chance of being with them, apart from the professionals of course.

Anyone who comes to Salvador, thinking it is dirt poor and the women will throw themselves at you will be sorely mistaken. It is a big city, there is quite a lot of affluence, the shopping malls are full of people going about their business. I was surprised at how much wealth there seems to be there. Next time I will head to a poorer, or at least smaller coastal town. You have no more chance of pulling a girl in Barra shopping than you would in a mall in Vienna, Rome or Dallas, honestly, maybe less !!!!!! So anyone who writes articles about getting great take-out in the shopping malls or Fashion Club is talking pure crap !!!!! On walking around shopping Barra maybe 15 times I must have seen a maximum of 2 suspected hookers !!!!

If anything there seems to be a general dislike and suspicion of foreigners, it is as if they do not care or need your money, and here I am talking about the shops etc, not the professionals. Also this place Fashion Club is a high end disco full of young, well off locals, not a place for a fat tourist to pick up some desperate peasant girl. I am sorry if I sound negative on this posting, but I am just being honest. I am 38 years old, not bad looking and can converse in portuguese, so if I could not get anywhere pulling a local girl, then god help the older, fatter, whiter tourist who can not speak the language !!!! I was honestly very surprised by these things in Salvador, it was not what I was expecting at all.

On the favourable side of course I did meet some nice people, I absolutely loved the weather and the beautiful beaches. One night downtown in Pelhourinho I pulled a fantastic looking sexy lady sitting in Praca de Sa, but she was the only one !!!! I took her back to my hotel in Barra, payed her 100 reals including her taxi back. I will post her photo in due course. I also visited Casa de Siri, but not on a Monday night. There were at least 75 very decent looking ladies there, I could not fault it. Also had a very good experience with a lady from there. I also visited a nightclub on the way there, it was a dive, avoid these places, 30 reals to get in and low quality ladies.

So if I just wanted somewhere to go for a suntan and Casa de Siri every night, Salvador would be fine. However I want more than that, and as I said before, if I do not like the people of an area, then i do not like the place. Normally if you are somewhere for a week, you will run into a few situations which will give you the opportunity to chat up a local, not in Salvador. Be my guest, go there and see for yourself. The people there are fairly cold and distant, which is strange considering how hot the weather is. In Sao Paulo people will chat to you in a shop, where are you from, that is intesting etc etc. In Salvador, in a week, I do not think 1 person ever asked me where I was from, even though you stand out like a sore thumb as a foreigner.

So would I go back, not sure, maybe one day, but there are plently of other places to go first where maybe people will be more friendly and gratefull of my visit and my contribution to the local economy.

Please, I'm starting to Salvador, so I have only two questions:

Coupe66 says:"Anyone else been here, the relax? Quote from Azmitgom report ´Afternoon diversion : The "Relax" is situated in Ondina, a bit further north from Barra, rua Baependi 6.

What kind of girl you can find there? Only black girls or white and mulattas too?

What about Cosquinha del Siri? Is it a restaurant, a bar or a danceteria?

Thanks for the answer

Coupe66,

Salvador is my favorite monger destination. I have been there 6 times in the past 5 years, though I won't get there this year. I have found the women to be quite sexy. I don't have much experience with the friendliness part as I generally don't approach women in the street. When I have, the response was not encouraging.

You are very correct that Shopping Barra and other large shopping centers such as Shopping Iguatemi are NOT good places to meet women. There are NOT many SWs in Salvador, even at night. There are 2 places where SWs are more plentiful. One is the Pelourinho area. Many young sexy women walking through the streets and shops there at night are available for P4P. This is a tourist attraction area that also attracts pickpickets so it is not the safest part of the city. There are many police offiers on corners looking out for low level crime against tourists. The other area is the low city beyond the Lacerdo elevator. This is the lower (-est?) income area and the SWs there are VERY low quality. It is also VERY dangerous there at night since it is the commercial area during the day and is deserted at night. It is not a tourist area so there are few police there.

That said, the city is FULL of clubs and bars where available women congregate to meet men. These places are where I monger. The clubs are GREAT! The dancing that goes on is WAY better than anything in the US. When a girl dances on stage, after she gets nude, she goes around to the men in the audience and gives each a brief lap dance! My favorites are the Club Tropical and Club Tche, both on the bay side of the city not far from the Lacerdo elevator. There are other clubs on the ocean side, another Tche Club which I believe is now closed; Free Night Club, which has been disappointing to me, and another club which opened last year but I have not yet been to and don't know the name of. I know it is in Vermelho not far from the Free Night Club. I have had several very good experiences with the garotas from Tropical and Tche.

In exploring the city, most women in the street have let me take their pictures. The Bahianas in their white dresses selling acaraje have chatted with me. Sales clerks in small restaurants and juice bars have asked me where I am from and what my impression of their city was.

I encourage you to give Salvador another chance very soon. However, do not expect the women in the street during the day going about their day to drop what they are doing to negociate sex with you. That is not going to happen, as you discovered. If you go to the places where the prostitutes gather, and there are plenty of them, then you CAN expect those ladies to negociate sex with you and make you VERY happy for it.

I spent 30 days this past summer and loved every second of it...I am gearing up for another month in May. One suggestion is if you are staying for 2 weeks or more, enroll in a class (language, music, cooking, Capoiera, something)...you can meet awesome foriegners doing that...met a cute Euro chic and a couple Canadians that put out for free! Cant beat that price! My music/drum class in Pelo, for example, cost 3 dollars every 2 hours...how cheap is that!

Now, on to the p*ssy. Although you cant just pull a$$ out of any mall or restuarant, it is in abundance and available. I often found some girls I met in Barra at the Claro shop hanging out in AeroClubbe on Friday and Saturday nights or at Club Tropicana across the street at a big party there...and they were very available..some at costs, and some not. I met and boned 2 chicas from regular clubs at no costs, so my recommendation is learn Portuguese and go to work.

I found Salvador to be much safer than Rio and the chicas were more chill. Rio chicas are very Machiavellian, and will try to gouge you for every dime...even the friendly ones...I had girls quote me 100R for the whole night, without any negotiation on my end...some asked for 20R for the cab since Salvador is gigantic...but you cant beat that...

Also, look at the classifieds. I encountered 2 situations in Piedade area (closer than Pelourinho if staying in Barra)...20R per half hour...its also a cool area to walk around and shop...its between Campo Grande and Pelo, and has a ton of shops, etc...I got 3 pairs of perscription glasses there for about 100USD total...

My expectation for my next stay is to lock down about 4 free situations that I can f*ck whenever...get a phone and a few girls on the roster, and you are good to go...every guy at my school had 1-2 *girlfriends* that didnt even have to give carfare...they redefine loyalty.

I've seen a couple of comments here about "Relax" in Ondina. Actually the name is Special Relax, and from the description given, it appears to be the same place I visited in August 2000. The astonishing thing is that, judging from the prices quoted here, the price has not increased in 5 years. It was R$150 in 2000, and it still is now! I must admit to fond recollections of Special Relax; it's certainly the most sumptious *****house I've visited, complete with pool, if you're interested. The bedrooms are huge, and the beds are very comfortable. I had two lovely mulatas there, both in late teens or early 20s. I realize that this isn't exactly current information, but from the preceding description it doesn't seem to have changed much. I'm planning to visit Salvador again in 2006 and will make a complete report then.
