WorldFun Posted January 1, 2007 Report Share Posted January 1, 2007 Nice discussion should really be in nightlife, regional sanuk whatever I guess in the end it boils down to if one really prefers the latino's or the asians? Secondary is if one like the thai or brazil culture i.e. food, life style, party style etc etc. Also personal attitude or even whether one is a short or tall guy Choice is all ours & I regret I never made it to Brazil as a single man - yet Now I'm pre-conditioned ...

cardinalblue Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 Someone said this is a subjective topic and it sure is... I will give you the girls streaming into NEP (one's persoanl taste) if I could have the women flowing into central chitlom dept store and its food loft...

Pescator Posted January 2, 2007 Report Share Posted January 2, 2007 I guess different people different strokes. I`ve been to sao paolo, Rio and Fortaleza with my brother who lives in Brazil. I don`t appreciate the latin temperament one bit and I most certainly don`t like the crime rate. Although I was there only for a fortnight, we experienced a few very unpleasant episodes. Well, at least the hookers are upfront, brutally upfront actually, forget about GF experience. Obviously my brother who speaks the lingo swears by Brazil, but personally, I shall never go back there. I am however aware of the fact that part of my dislike (or rather non appreciation) of the country was probably due to the fact that I don`t know a word of the language and had no intention of learning it. Bottom line: IMHO Thailand win hands down in just about every respect. The food comparison? There is no comparison whatsoever. cheers hn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cardinalblue Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 That is a good point..The GF experience. LOS and asian cultures in general maybe to a lesser degree than LOS have the opportunity to have a GF experience rather than I am hooker, you are customer, screw me and get it over with... That is proabaly the one of the greatest draws about LOS that other cultures lack or just isn't present. Prostitution is a straight, up-front business in our western societies. Even in america, hookers market themselves as a Gf experience. They know it isn't true but they do know what customers mostly want and try to use that angle. Same same in the corporate world as we talk about team-work, team-player in an individualized society. CB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belem Posted January 3, 2007 Report Share Posted January 3, 2007 I hear the best Carnival is in Salvador. Is that true? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prosal Posted January 7, 2007 Report Share Posted January 7, 2007 Salvador's carnaval is, with Rio, the most commercial, but not the best. Many brasilian people consider Recife, Olinda, Aracaju and Ouro Preto much more spontaneous and much more fun. Yet if I'd had the desire to go in a Carnaval in South America (which is not the case currently, as my interest is at 100% concentrated on East Europe) I'd definitely choose Barranquilla in Colombia.

SatRai Posted January 10, 2007 Report Share Posted January 10, 2007 A cousin of mine (Asian-Indian like me) once spent a week in Brazil. He told me that many girls over there prefer black men over others. (Pity for my cousin...) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belem Posted January 11, 2007 Report Share Posted January 11, 2007 A lot of the American hip hop black guys have been going to Rio since the Snoop Doggy Dog video " Beautiful "came out a few years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
