Rio de Janeiro Reports

[QUOTE=Vagabundo1;3001074]Services.

Some new people coming into town request SIM chips, which I can provide. I can also register such number for you before you come to Rio de Janeiro, so you can start talking to the hoars on a local number and be all like you hoar meu nome e felipe ret baiano bengala, sou go go boy, tenho 28 x19 centimeter, por voce vou fazer desconto, tabom?

I am looking for people coming into town in the next few weeks / months to bring some items, such as a Google Pixel 7 a or 8 a for less than $120 USD, or similar, which seems like a fair trade.[/QUOTE]Sent you a PM Vagabundo. I am planning to come in Early July. I can get these items for you.

Just send me a link for where to buy from.

[QUOTE=HKS11;3007363]Anyone care to comment about weather, etc in July & August?[/QUOTE]Get a sweater. Worse comes to worse you can put 2 t-shirts under it to make things warmer. Don't forget it's still a winter time there. Water I think is ok though. I intend to swim in any case. Then again I'm usually the only one swimming in Copa in July, at least swimming behind the waves for sure. Oh. This time I think I'd be spending the whole week in Barra just to check the place out.

[QUOTE=HKS11;3007363]Anyone care to comment about weather, etc in July & August?[/QUOTE]Rio de Janeiro experiences mild winter months in July and August, with average temperatures typically ranging between 19°see and 26°see. These months are among the sunniest of the year, with July averaging 21 sunny days and August averaging 19 sunny days. Rainfall is relatively low, with July being the driest month, averaging 1. 5 inches of precipitation. Winds tend to be moderate.

To avoid burying the lead, as the saying goes in the newspaper biz, here is my suggestion:

Get on a call with Vagabundo before you even start to talk to girls off of [URL]gparena.net[/URL], etc, and register a local Rio de Janeiro number on your whatsapp and maybe telegram too. You do this by: 1) getting whatsapp / whatsapp business / telegram open on your phone, while I have a local sim chip to get the code to register. Then set a profile picture with vasco the gama or a picture of a Rio de Janeiro beach (not your face). Then start to talk to the hoars. Your probable rates will be lower.

If you start zapping from a rich world country code, then there is an automatic profiling going on. I don't need to write a paragraph about this, do I?

My motive in this is to make friends for security, shared ubers, etc, and maybe to courier in some electronics like a cell (used amazon refurbished pixel for less than $140 USD), or a gamer laptop (used amazon refurbished for less than $600 USD), usually when I get to know people over a few trips / years. Especially if you are veteran of the swiss navy or other, or a financial professional.

Some new people coming into town request SIM chips, which I can provide. I can also register such number for you before you come to Rio de Janeiro, so you can start talking to the hoars on a local number and be all like you hoar meu nome e felipe ret baiano bengala, sou go go boy, tenho 28 x19 centimeter, por voce vou fazer desconto, tabom?

I am looking for people coming into town in the next few weeks / months to bring some items, such as a Google Pixel 7 a or 8 a for less than $120 USD, or similar, which seems like a fair trade.

Details:

So, the way to do it with the local number is this. BEFORE you even start to talk to girls that you find from gparena dot net, you should hit me up with a PM, and we can get on a phone call. You can register a WhatsApp or whatsapp business BEFORE you start hitting up the girls. Set a picture of a beach in Brazil as your profile picture, and use a translator and fake being a local dude, and get a better price.

When you get to Rio, then Vagabundo or some of the other experienced mongers, like Jimmyboy or Nounce will take you to some of the higher quality prives, and get your CPF (cost per fuck) registered on your penis for a better price. It will make a big difference financially for your experience.

As for the specific celular, hit up Vagabundo by PM and I will send you a link, but basically a Google Pixel 6 a refurbished for less than $135 US Dollars, with a crave case and a screen protector (because those phones have multiple users, which makes it easier to put on multiple WhatsApp's, and to have a hoaring user profile). You could also put your brokerage linked to your hoaring card there, like ibkr dot com or schwab or fidelity. If you were really Hi speed low drag, hunter biden, you would want to put those funds into a LLC (50% tax deductible meals and entertainment, right? Always buy audit defense on your tax prep software for the LLC).

OK, so vagabundo went into centro and banged cat lady bare with some nice oleo do coconut, and nutted all over her leg.

You don't care about that really because it was not your own penis, and every penis is on its own side. You're just my buddy to figure out my techniques, which is fine. Keep trading your crypto because vagabundo is trading volatility on crypto, which is the area in which I teach and supervise smart college kids, which is why I need all the Hi speed low drag technology.

I don't need more celular phones and laptops like the supposedly excellent ASUS vivobook S14 with the AI chip for $580 USD which I will be glad to figure out how to do the logistics for, but I fucking want one because there is nothing more than I like than to watch porn while fucking cat or my favorite prive hoars while playing our favorite porn, while trading in the bar with a laptop at a price point that actually supports gaming (eager to see that, as I am a huge gamer on insurgency sandstorm, just find vagabundo on the Russian server! Heckler and Koch is a Vagabundo family asset, if you haven't figured it out, along with Tavor and IMI, and the Rothchilds make our ships to send our guns, money, and lawyers around the world, and fer fucks sake, where there's lawyers, there's hoars, which is where it all started.

If that ASUS Vivobook S14 actually is a macbook air equivalent, then it is a fuck you laptop that I could actually lose in the sort of dangerous area that is centro, where as a macbook air M1 that I bought for $2000 USD from a local source (at RB156, Sorella electronics) is a item that I would not want to lose in a street crime. $580 dollar gaming capable lap top and $135 refurbished celular are items that if a punk stuck a gun or a knife in my face, I could say, OK, take it. A $1500 gamer laptop I would generally not want to take into a prive to watch porn and trade. But, those are just some of the finer points of what Vagabundo carries on the street after almost 2000 straight days of hoaring in Rio.

My cost per fuck per minute with cat was like 230/38 for the fucking and then a good 15 minute massage. Not that you really care, but you can meet and meat cat too. Call her dilma, funny as fuck, and call yourself lula. Just as I was banging cat the news about the Trump Elon bitchslapping fight went public roiled the markets, and just as she was texting her boyfriend, I was checking my portfolio, and I was like, man, this fuck with the coconut oil feels great but goddammit, what the fuck is causing this drop in my crypto stock volatility position? It came back somewhat on Friday, and I am smart enough to structure it to benefit from time decay. Extra credit to my dining / sex / literature friends if they understand that bitcoin investment language!

One of my ISG lunch buddies brought Vagabundo the most awesome velcro patch, a genuine (like get locked up if you falsely wear it) SCHWEITZER KRIEGSMARINE military patch, as Vagabundo is a lieutenant commander in the Swiss Navy!

Botafogo or Barra.

The reason for Botafogo is the following video.

The reason for Barra is safety as discussed in this article in Economist dot com (trigger warning, though some sources are racist, this article is not, nor am I, a minority, for posting it).

Activists are increasingly pushing back.

Aug 14th 2021.

Jacarezinho.

AT DAWN ON May 6th residents of Jacarezinho, a favela in Rio de Janeiro, woke to the sound of police helicopters and gunfire. Ten hours later, 28 people were dead, nearly all of them black men. Mariana de Paula, a 27-year-old accountant and activist who lives on the morro ("hill", as steep favelas like Jacarezinho are called), told her boss that it was too dangerous to travel to the office. Her boss, who is white, suggested she use a ride-hailing app. "She didn't get it," says Ms de Paula, who is black. The shooting sounded like popcorn. The victims included one police officer, shot by drug traffickers, and 27 residents killed by the police. Some were unarmed. It was the deadliest police raid in the state's history.

When the shooting stopped, Ms de Paula began her commute down alleyways that zigzag to the bottom of the morro, through a tunnel from Rio's poor Zona Norte to the rich Zona Sul, and finally to Barra the Tijuca, a beachside strip that is 72% white. In mostly white neighbourhoods in Rio flats can cost 2,000 reais ($400) per square foot. Their inhabitants blame poverty and corruption for the violence that plagues the city. But a growing chorus from Ms de Paula's Rio, the mostly black peripheries and favelas, suggests there is more to it than that.

Black Brazilians are increasingly arguing not only that the police are too trigger-happy but also that their violence is sometimes racially motivated. In 2019 Brazilian cops killed 6,357 people. In the state of Rio they killed 1,814: nearly twice as many people as cops killed in the United States, which has a population 19 times as large. Eight out of ten Brazilians killed by police are negros, a grouping that combines the official racial categories of preto, "black", and pardo, "brown" or "mixed". (Throughout this article, "black" refers to the unofficial category of negros.) Police killings tripled between 2013 and 2020 and now represent around a third of all homicides in some states, according to data compiled by the Brazilian Forum on Public Safety, an NGO.

Part of the explanation lies in history. Brazil was the last country in the Americas to outlaw slavery. Though former slaves did not suffer formal segregation of the kind imposed by South Africa or the American South, poverty and laws criminalising vagrancy and African religions had a similar effect. Rio "civilised and modernised itself by expelling second-class citizens to the morros", writes Zuenir Ventura in "Cidade Partida" (Divided City, 1994).

Black people too poor to live elsewhere built shantytowns (see map). Their residents became cheap labour for factories in Zona Norte and white families in Zona Sul. Today black Brazilians are 56% of Brazil's population but 70% of the poor. Unemployment is 17% for blacks versus 12% for whites. White Brazilians earn almost twice as much as black ones do.

Jacarezinho, which sits between a defunct General Electric plant and two train lines, has 40,000 residents. Its past as a haven for former slaves earned it the nickname "Rio's blackest favela". Over the years, poverty has bred resourcefulness. Residents add one floor after another to homes packed like Lego bricks. Shops sell everything from birthday cakes to beard-trimmers. But there is no proper sewerage system. Nor are there many formal jobs. Open-air drug markets are manned by teens with AK-47's, despite a huge police station at the bottom of the favela.

In 2008 a police commander in Rio called the force "the best social insecticide" after a raid that killed nine people. Rio's civil police is responsible for investigating crimes, but like the military police, its encounters with favelas consist mostly of operations with heavy weapons and hundreds of men. Decades of iron-fist policing have failed to curb violence. A recent study by the state prosecutor's office showed that in the month after lethal raids, crime in the vicinity tends to tick up, not down. And raids claim innocent lives. In the past five years, eight children under the age of 12 were killed during police operations in Rio. At least 24 were injured. During the Jacarezinho raid a nine-year-old saw police kill a man in her bedroom, soaking her mattress with his blood.

The Department for the Protection of Children and Adolescents says it spent months planning the raid in May, which was meant to arrest 21 people suspected of recruiting minors to drug gangs. But evidence appears to be scant—consisting mainly of photos from Twitter. Officers made only six arrests. Of the 27 people killed, some were minors and most were not on the suspect list (police say they were wanted on other charges). It looked like a "revenge operation", says Daniel Hirata of the Federal Fluminense University in Rio. When an officer dies in a raid, civilian deaths are twice as likely.

Despite the levels of violence—which police argue is needed to counter crime—most citizens are indifferent to the plight of favela residents, says Silvia Ramos of the Centre for Security and Citizenship Studies, a think-tank. Brazilians see police killings as a natural response to overall violence. They express more fear than citizens of any of the 163 countries surveyed by the Institute for Economics and Peace, an Australian think-tank. Some 95% are somewhat or very worried about being the victims of violence. Another poll found that 57% agreed with the phrase "a good criminal is a dead criminal. ".

"You can't go into a favela with roses," argues Carlos Monjardim, the head of the residents' association in Ipanema, a rich neighbourhood in the south of the city. It has 42 community police officers, whom locals "adore". Mr Monjardim's biggest concern is an "invasion" of people selling knick-knacks on the pavements.

He refers to the idea, first mooted in the 1930's, that a lack of laws against interracial romance and greater mixing have made Brazil a "racial democracy". "Racism doesn't exist here," he says, pointing to his love of samba and his adopted sister, who is black. He supports the populist president, Jair Bolsonaro, who has called residents of quilombos (communities founded by escaped slaves) "fat and lazy" and says that activists are "importing. Tensions alien to our history".

Indeed segregation in Brazil, including the existence of favelas and separate "service" elevators for maids and cooks, tends to be attributed to class, not race. Even left-wing types "used to say racism is just a fruit of economic inequality", says Luiz Eduardo Soares, who as an adviser to Rio's security secretary in 1999-2000 tried to reduce crime by filling favelas with projects, such as a snazzy cultural centre.

But such schemes are often underfunded. Killings by police fell 86% between 2008 and 2014 in "police pacification unit" areas, built in the lead-up to the 2016 Olympics. These community policing units were disbanded in 2019, after their budget was cut from 5 m reais to just 10,000. Attempts to reform the police cost reformers like Mr Soares their jobs.

The revolution is now televised.

Attitudes have started to change, however. This is partly due to pressure from activists, academics and a small but growing contingent of black politicians. More recently Black Lives Matter protests in the United States and the rise of mobile phones and social media have also raised awareness of racism.

Thiago Amparo, a human-rights lawyer, provided live commentary on Brazil's biggest TV channel for six hours in the wake of George Floyd's death. In November 2020 protests swept Brazil after white security guards at a Carrefour supermarket beat a black man to death. The supermarket chain agreed to pay 115 m reais to civil-rights groups, a record sum. In June a video of a white couple falsely accusing a black surfing instructor of stealing their bicycle went viral. An ongoing survey of news stories about police operations in Brazil found the word "black" only once in 7,000 stories between June 2019 and May 2020 but six times since the death of Mr Floyd.

Michael França, an economist, thinks that Brazil is starting to talk more openly about race. This year he and his colleagues from Insper, a business school in São Paulo, created a "racial-equality index" to measure disparities in different regions. The situation is becoming better in some ways and worse in others.

Public universities now have as many black students as white ones, but while 36% of white 18- to 24-year-olds have completed university or are studying for a degree, the share drops to 18% for black 18- to 24-year-olds. Mr França's index estimates that it will take 27 years to reach racial equality. And a black Brazilian is nearly three times as likely as a white one to be a victim of homicide. (Most perpetrators are also black.) In the United States a black person is seven times as likely to be killed as a white one. But in Brazil deaths of black people at the hands of cops are a larger share of homicides.

These numbers are finally starting to dawn on people, says Irapuã Santana of Educafro, a civil-rights group. In 2017 the group joined a class-action lawsuit opposing police raids which resulted in orders that Rio's police take steps to prevent loss of life, such as having ambulances on call and not using schools as bases from which to shoot. After the Supreme Court banned raids during the pandemic, killings by Rio's police dropped by a third in 2020, saving nearly 600 lives. The ban was still in place when officers entered Jacarezinho. They called the raid "Operation Exceptis".

But authorities in Rio stubbornly stick to their methods. In 2019 the governor said police should "shoot criminals in their little heads". He abolished the security secretariat, which had provided a layer of oversight, and weakened the internal-affairs departments (he was later impeached for financial irregularities). When activists argued that officers should be held accountable for the deaths in Jacarezinho, the police sealed the internal investigation for five years. A study in 2008 found that 99% of cases against Rio police officers were dismissed without charges, often without a serious investigation.

This is in contrast to São Paulo, where police lethality has dropped since some units began wearing body cameras (after the raid in Jacarezinho, Rio's state assembly ordered police to implement a 2009 law that mandates their use). São Paulo is introducing anti-racism training, though this has had mixed results in other countries. The black lieutenant-colonel who is leading the effort, Evanilson Corrêa de Souza, is unwilling to blame racism for deaths in "terrains where criminals are armed to the teeth". Police "go into favelas with the mentality that they will kill or be killed," he says, pointing out that black officers make up a third of the police force but two-thirds of officers killed. "We're killing each other. " Racism isn't a policing problem, it's a societal problem, he says.

In the meantime activists will keep pushing for change. Last year Ms de Paula and Thiago Nascimento, a law student from Jacarezinho, helped found LabJaca, a think-tank geared towards favela residents, to track covid-19 cases and urge people to take the virus more seriously. After the raid they changed their focus, organising a protest and releasing a wonky video showing how many school uniforms could be purchased for the cost of weapons used by the police. But few businesses were willing to support LabJaca's new campaign.

A month after the raid, a friend of Ms de Paula's was killed by a stray bullet. Kathlen Romeu was 24 years old and 14 weeks pregnant, with a degree from interior-design school and a new flat in a safer part of Rio. She had returned to a favela to visit her grandmother when she was shot by the police, witnesses say. Ms de Paula went on national news to denounce the killing. The next day her co-workers swarmed her. "We saw you on TV," they said. "You're famous!" Tens of thousands of strangers followed Ms Romeu on Instagram, liking photos of her baby bump. "You can say all 27 killed in Jacarezinho were criminals," says Ms de Paula. "But an unborn baby?9632;.

[QUOTE=Tribute15;3007520]Copa bro. Proximity to every where. I went to Barra on a Friday, and it took me 47 minutes from Copacabana. Each time I went to Perola Negra, it was like I was travelling. Used the travel time to get a power nap and get there refreshed.[/QUOTE]

First time and trip to Brazil and Rio was a success. I was able to meet the one and only vagabundo who provided my friends and I great info.

We stayed at an AirBnb in Leblon and was able to hit up Perola Negra, Solarium and Monte Carlo in the evenings. I personally thought perola negra was the best out of the 3 in terms of experience, venue and girls.

Definitely want to make another visit back to Rio and check out SP as well.

My second trip to Rio. Arrived early Friday morning and checked in to a hotel in Lapa.

Quatro por Quatro.

Friday night had some jet lag and wanted to go somewhere I was familiar with and knew what to expect. Went to 4 x 4 about 20:00. Took an uber for about 10 are. Got a Heineken and checked out the talent. Were about 15 gals there. After about a half hour I saw a gal that I was with last time in Rio, at 4 x 4. A cute morena with slender body and natural breasts. She speaks English too. Took her to one of the larger rooms for an hour. Great with kissing, oral sem camisinha. I asked her if she would have vaginal intercourse bareback, but she wouldn't let me. Nevertheless, was a hot session and ended with CIM and swallow. Cost for two beers, a coconut water for her and the room was under 700 are.

Perola Negra.

Went to this place in Barra de Tijuca on Saturday night as it was highly recommended by a fellow respected ISGer. Took the Metro to the Oceana stop, then walked about a mile to the location. Got there around 22:30. Recommendations were that the place gets active late, and 22:30 was not late enough. Maybe 6 gals. Most of them sat by and tried to chat me up, but I let them know I was in no hurry. I patiently waited while more girls filtered in over the next couple hours or so. Met a pretty one that had a face and hair like Uma Thurman from Pulp Fiction, but she insisted that oral be with a condom. A deal breaker. So I continued to patiently wait. About 1:00 I realized that Uma with condom might be my best choice and called her back. While I was finishing my drink, she saw me pop a Viagra. I tried to play it off with a joke about being old and half drunk. I guess the joke didn't land because she got up and left without a word. Really weird. Probably the language barrier.

At that point I see one last gal across the room that I had not seen up close yet. I motioned her over and she was cute. A tall, thin morena with long hair and natural breasts. She was OK with oral no condom so I took her to a room for a one-hour program. Had a great time and ended with CIM. It pays to have patience. The bill was kind of steep at 1150 are for three caipirinhas and the room. It might have been because I chose the "Pearl Room" that Uma wanted to go to. It was a nice room with jacuzzi, shower, banheiro, stripper-pole, etc. Fancier than I would normally choose, but it was nice.

Odd note, as I was there a while, I drank three caipirinhas, served by two different waitersold guys. After brining me the third one that waiter asked for a tip. I thought this was inappropriate as the drinks are paid at the same time as the room in a lump sum. This guy persisted and I finally took a couple 2 are notes out and gave to him. The guy gave me a disappointed look letting me know he thought I was a cheapskate. If I had known the waiter was such a dick, I would have went to the bar and got the drinks myself. Am I wrong here? It is my understanding that in Brazil tips are appreciated but not expected.

I'll be here all week and hope to update with more misadventures.

[QUOTE=Turgid;3008371]How many whites live in favelas?[/QUOTE]Probably more than you imagine. During several years on my Rio visits I stayed in one of Zona Sul favelas. Far from all of the moradores are black. There are lots of white nordestinos, especially from Ceará, Paraíba and Pernambuco. It tends to be that the nordestinos are the ones who are successfully business-owners in the favelas. Meanwhile the majority of the young guys who end up in the gangs are colored.

In the favelas 72,9% are pardos / morenos and pretos. What is considered white in Brazil make up 26,6% of the moradores. The reason that 90% of the bandits that are getting killed by the police are negros probably have several explanations. In some extent it might be a racial issue but also because the majority of the gangs are made up of colored guys.

[QUOTE=Turgid;3008949]Ok, that being said there should be some termas and boites in the favelas which should be cheaper and with decent talent, that we don't know about.[/QUOTE]I doubt you find any termas inside any favela in Rio. There are plenty of clubs in the favelas, some giant ones that holds baile funk parties etc. Tons of superhot girls, but regular girls.

I know there are some puteiros in Vidigal and Rocinha but I never bothered to visit them. However I've been to some puteiros in some favelas in Bahia and Ceará. Very basic, cheap and really nice girls. Unless you know the favela or have friends who live in the favela you better skip looking for puteiros in the favelas. Imagine a gringo walking into a favela asking around for putas. That could end very badly.

First off why didn't anyone on this forum mention Brazil has different outlets than the USA? I hold everyone here responsible for my inconvenience of not being able to use the outlets here. So I start off by walking to Eden spa. Avinida Nossa sra. De Copacabana 583. Suite 401. You see the number right on the building, inconspicuous office / apartment building. Took the elevator to the fourth floor. Rang the bell and was greeted by a man. I was offered a drink and had a seat and the girls presented themselves. The new prices that I remember are R270 for 30 or R350 for 60. I don't remember the other options. I took a shower and the towel came in a plastic bag, how nice. Anyway, I noticed right away that each girl presented herself differently. It was about 8 girls ranging from 5-7 mostly 5's. Some would offer each cheek for a kiss. Some would stand far back. I think you have to read body language to tell whos really interested in working. Anyway ofcourse my dumbass pics the hottest one that stood far away and did not smile. And spoiler alert. That shit was ass. I mean she had a great ass, but the session was ass! No kissing, no nothing. Even a ***** ass condom bbj. She got on top and I came in 20 seconds. Don't tell anybody. Anyways I got the hell out of there. I ate dinner at Mabs and the food was overpriced ass and a half. And the half was more ass. Also not a single girl there. Tudo bem!

Set out to find Dark Room on Tuesday around 14:00. Found my way to 28 Praca Cavi Bilac. Upon arrival, the security guard told me that Dark Room on the 21st floor had closed. He said the new location was around the corner on Rua Buenos Aires at 100. A steerer guy on Buenos Aires directed me to a place called Day Relax at 100 Buenos Aires, 4th floor and said that Dark Room had relocated to this place about a month ago. They had a lineup of only three girls, none were anything to write home about. I picked what I thought was the prettiest of the three for a one-hour session at 180 reais. I won't call her out by name, but she had no enthusiasm, did not want to be there, and wanted to end the session at 40 minutes. On top of all that, she kept sniffling (I thought maybe a coke problem?) and told me she had a cold and that it hurt her head to suck. While she did suck enough to get me hard, after she put the condom on for the sex, she would stall until my pole went half-mast, then said that I wasn't hard enough to penetrate her tight pussy. Was not a good time for her to spend three minutes typing a full paragraph into Google translate (WTF? I eventually gave up and left without getting off. What a waste of time.

Although I had never been to Dark Room, the reports on ISG were always positive. I hope that Day Relax is not its replacement. Has anyone else heard about Dark Room closing?

Wednesday I went to Ave. Rio Branco 185 sala 2114 at about 14:00. I think that place is called Belprazer. They had a lineup of nine girls. I chose one I liked for a one-hour at 200 reais. I picked a winner this time. Had fun and the girl was hot. Definitely worth the price.
