Uwishyouwereme => urpaying2much
Dear Uwishyouwereme,
Nice to hear you are having such a good time in Brazil (Floripa). However you are paying too much for the services rendered. You can read this all over the Brazil forum. Don't forget that an average monthly salary in Brazil starts at some 400 R$.
[QUOTE=Uwishyouwereme]
Anyway, my girl asked for R350 and I told her it was too much. I don't like negotiating much but I just told her that I'd pay her $300 (u$s 150) but if she didn't come hard I'd pay her the R350 that she wanted. She was cracking up laughing. We really hit it off. [/QUOTE]
By paying her 300 R$ you are paying her something similar to US$ 1000 in the USA for a few hours of fun. Way too much. I know that some Brasileiros pay just 50-100 R$ for a whole night, max! Us guys from the EU and USA overpaying the GDPs with hundreds of R$ ruins the market. For us and mostly for the Brasileiros. A typical escort service in Rio charges some 100 R$ for two hours. Excellent quality, in your hotel or apartment.

You have a minimum drink tab of R70 (u$s 35). Then to get a room you must pay R45 as well on top of the girl's fee. My total bill was R680 (u$s 340). Then I chased my waiter and he was VERY surprised when I gave him a R50 tip. He really appreciated it. I knew that I'd be back so I wanted to build some good will. I do this in most of the clubs I go to around the world.

Tipping is an american custom, that not every other country follows. You paid the waiter 50 R$, for him that is equivalent to something like tipping a US waiter with US$ 200. In Brasil tipping 50 R$ is way overdone.
Please read what the forum has to say about Brazil, tipping and paying GDPs. There is plenty about that in the RIO thread.
enjoy,

Last Stop before flying back to New York
We flew from Rio to Florenop. On our last 5 night itinerary. Easy TAM flight. You must RENT a car if you are going to tour and monger successfully on this small island, city.
We stayed right on the Atlantic in Inglesis, about 40 minutes to Centro where all the rip off clubs are. Attention all Mongerers. Don't go to the Centro clubs, unless you have just won the lottery and don't mind getting ripped off. AND THAT MAKES IT BAD for US! Lots of hotel selection, great seafood restaurants everywhere, beach activities, lots of non-pro girls walking around. No mongering opportunities althougth. We found a nice Brothel 15 minutes drive south called Star Club. It opens at 9 PM and had about 11 girls there. We went 3 nights in a row. R10 addission includes 1st drink. R100 for 40 minute session with girl of your choice and room. Very nice female manager. She wanted 150 for an hour, but we got it down to 100 for 40 mins. Good talent. Get there at opening when all the girls are freashly showered, clean, and smell great. Big neon sign, drive down dirt road and guard will let you through gate. Park car and walk in. They give you a ticket to keep track of your drinks. Each night came to R110 for I only had one drink. Girls are not pushy and very friendly. Some 8-9's. Mostly 6-7's. Santa Caterina is for the laid back beach lover. I will not visit again, but it is an excellent place for the family, girl friend thing, etc. My friends went to Bukkara and almost got taken for everything. R100 to get in with girls asking 300-400 for a session? STAY away from Cento clubs. You were warned. We found an excellent Oyster House named Ostrodamous. Try the Augratin Cheese sauce dozen. Amazingly good. Flew back to Sao Paulo and then back to New York non stop. TAM. Great trip. Next year will start again in Fortaleza, and then Mongering Central Rio, and then the Falls near Argentina. Anyone interested in joining me? Let me know. The more the merrier and increased savings for the Termas!

Euromania The State Of Santa Catarina Is An Interesting Place
Dear euromania,
Let me tell you that the santa catarina state is a complexed place in the sense the the great p4p action is not really located in floripa.
As many of you have heard the most beautiful women of brazil come from the south of the country,a theory that is supported by the brazilians themselves.
I agree with you that balneario camboriu is a great option and I'm really amazed of the little info on this place in our forum.
The owners of bokarra have recently opened place down there, laso the biggest boite in londrina has opened shop down there, you also have don augusto ([url]www.donaugusto.com.br[/url]), brazilian girls and sauna marujos and probably others that i do not know about.And like you said the non pros here are truly gorgeous.
Another great options in the state is the city of joinville who has a lot and I mean a loooooottttttt of options for p4p.
This santa catarina state is really great for p4p but you need to be willing to go to the other cities but hey don't get me wrong floripa is also great, great beaches, good p4p action but expensive and beautiful non pros.
Let's discover brazil fellow mongers.

Hey, my name is Bert, I'm american and down in Floripa a few days.
