[QUOTE=ForceSteeler;1618553]Man,
I cannot wait until after the olympics when the Brazil Economy Tanks and these termas prices will be cheaper. Anybody thinks they will open a place like help once the economy tanks?[/QUOTE]I don't see why not. I can't see what their motivation would be to keep another Help type club from opening.
Fasano Hotel NOT girlfriendly?
I just stayed at the Fasano for 2 nights and was unable to bring a girl in from outside. I found her on the internet and she arrived showing deep cleavage (we met outside). The reception person alerted the manager as we were getting into the elevator and the manager said there are no guests allowed after I had registered into the hotel as 1 guest.
I asked if she is allowed in for an extra charge and they said "no".
The Tripadvisor website says that some hotel guests entertain prostitutes in the restaurant, but I assume they meant the big bar area, but I was there for Sunday and Monday evenings, when the bigger bar / restaurant were closed. The main restaurant was for dinner reservations only.
I will try Sofitel on my next visit but not sure when that'll be.
All that glitters isn't Gold!
My friend and I went to a Brazil Festival Party in Chicago recently and ran into a guy that he knew from Copa. My buddy hadn't seen the guy in a number of years and we started talking about Brazil. Turns out the guy had married his favorite Copa girl and brought her Chicago. He was telling us some of the trials and tribulations that he was going thru with 1) marrying a woman from another country 2) Marrying a Brazilian and 3) Marrying a former GDP. Here are just a few of the things that he was telling us about that he has to deal with.
A) One of the things that he said he wished he had thought about before he married her was her education level. His wife had dropped out of school when she was only 14, so she didn't have that much of a formal education. He said she can't even help their 9 year old son with his math homework because its too advanced for her. We asked him why he didn't put her in school and he started laughing. He said "Have you seen the new GED test? If she can't do 3rd grade math, there is no way she is going to be able to pass the GED course! It would be a waste of time and money!
B) He also said he had a number of awkward moments when they would run into former clients of hers while out and about. She used to be pretty popular in club Help so she had many clients. (I had fucked her a few times. Phat ass and could suck a mean one. But I didn't say anything) He says he tries his hardest not to be salty after the encounters, but he admits that it makes him angry and sometimes he takes it out on her. I told him he was lucky he lived in Chicago instead of the DMV, where she would probably see her old clients on a daily basis. LOL!
C) He said it took him years to get her to understand what "Appropriate" means. He said he could never trust her to come to his office or to meet him at a public function unless he picked out her clothes first. She would wear completely inappropriate clothes to functions and he would be very embarrassed. He would always tell her "You are not going to a baile funk party in the favela, you have to dress more classy here in America!
D) The constant need to want to talk to and visit former Help girls who are living in America. He tries to keep her from them and he encourages her to get new friends. Brazilian women who grew up in America who are doing positive things with their life, not former GDPs who have nothing going for themselves. Unfortunately, she is determined to keep close tabs with her former running partners.
After drinking and talking for about an hour, we really got the sense that if he had known then what he knows now, he never would have married her.
