Porto Alegre for Travellers

What’s on and what’s going on.

  • Get ye to freaking Porto Alegre, it's where absolutely everything in the world goes on, like uh...the World Social Forum, and uhm, yes, other great stuff. Rio de Janeiro has its Christ the Redemer, Sugar Loaf Mountain, and wonderful beaches (NOT!) BUT, go there and you'll get KILLED! In PoA you'll just get robbed at gun point.

A Word or Two about Brazilian Culture 1: Motels

Posted by apfear on February 8, 2007

If you’re travelling by car with your family, including kids, and see a sign “MOTEL” and think you’ll have a stop over for the night with a nice breakfast in the morning, NO WAY! A motel here is for SEX! By all means if you’re travelling as a couple with no kids then you can stay the night or just for a couple of hours, any time during the day or night.

Yes motels are for SEX, the rooms have jacuzzis, round beds, small fridge with drinks (though I recommend take yer own, it’s cheaper), mirrors all round and on the ceiling and big tv with porn channel. Some of them even have some kind of wierd multi-gym type contraption for tying people up in various possitions if that’s yer ilk. The motels offer a variety of suites from very basic, with no hot tub, to more elaborate with mini heated swimming pool and solarium for exposing yer naked flesh to harmful rays. Prices of the motels vary and prices of the suite vary depending if you want to soak in a hot tub after or before a good shag or whether you just want a good shag with no frills attached (frills can be itchy sometimes)

Here are some good ones in PoA:

The Sherwood: won’t find Robin Hood lurking here but the hot tubs are HOT and the beds are round.

Athenas: Take yer toga and a few friends, this one advertises a “Top Suite, for up to 15 people” YEEHAR!

Botafogo: Quite literally means “set on fire”

Ooooooh I could just go on forever.  There are loads, just AVOYYYYD the grubby ones.  How do you know a grubby one?  Well, it’s kind of like, grubby you know.
