I'm writing this review since I realized I've never chatted about him specifically.

Over the years, there have been several Brazilians that have given me the motiviation to jump on a plane and head to Brazil.  But, Rafael is the only one that gave me the same motivation before actually meeting him.

I saw his pic, and thought he was absolutely adorable.  Of course, that's a recipe for a huge let down, but Rafael did not disappoint me at all once we finally did meet.

He has that aura about him that he is just a another Brazilian guy that we might meet, not pretentious in the least, very friendly but returns your flirtations with a shy smile.  But, the guy just oozes sexuality as only a wonderfully sexy Brazilian can.

During our first encounter, he spent the entire night with me.  It had been a long night of having dinner, socializing with friends, and both of us were too exhausted for spectacular sex, but I was perfectly happy cuddling with him throughout the night.

But the second time, I met him at Club 117 and asked him to meet me at the Hotel Atlantico the next day, and he was promptly on time.  It was early afternoon, and after socializing with friends, I had the jacuzzi warm and ready for both of us to get started.  And, this time we were both ready!

Sitting in the jacuzzi, with the sun gleaming through the window and caressing each others' bodies is yet another Brazilian Kodak moment.

Even though Rafael shyly used the word "tentar" which means "to try", he was absolutely great passivo sex with me, but he probably prefers being activo.

He is simply a very sweet, down to earth guy that is completely happy with the reasonable donation that you agree upon.

Here's a pic from my visit.

These are some of his more recent pics provided thanks to Trencherman.

If you have the opportunity, Rafael is definitely worth your time.

Does he have a cell number which you would eagerly post, or should we rely on finding him at Club 117? (...beautiful pics of this handsome young man!!!)

Sorry Ax, I don't have a cell number for him, but you will most likely find him at Club 117.

He used to work at Caracalla as their masseuse until their business diminished.

Really nice guy.

- Drey

He is a wonderful well-mannered guy. Besides his massages, He  makes a pleasant dinner companion, one who will not embarrass you.

i know this guy as Leandro. still shy after all these years. has a 6 year old kid. anyway, i talked to him last week in 117. he mentioned he only goes there once a week now, usually on saturdays. as soon as he arrived my friend went with him to a cabine. after they were done he sat with us for a little bit then he put on his clothes and left. my friend mentioned that Leandro usually does business more outside of the saunas now so he rarely comes in anymore.

He sure is a hot sexy guy....I hope I get to meet him in October........Drey do you have an email address for him?

Will arrive in Rio on the 30th September (Atlantico of course) Looking forward to seeing Sponge Bob, Drey, Deltaguy and all the other "good buddies"

Hi Rhodie, and glad you're going to make it!

Sorry, I don't have an e-mail address.  We'll have to get Sponge Bob to get his phone number since he arrives a few days before us, and let's hope he's at 117 one night, and thanks for the info ghv2.

Rafael, I think is his stage name, Leandro is is his actual name, I believe.  By either name though, he is a hot, naturally sexy Brazilian that's a pleasure to be around.

Look forward to seeing you, and I'm sure Andy will as well.

Rafael/Leandro is not always around as he has apparently proven to be a popular travel companion to such places as Buzios, Cabo Frio, and elsewhere.  He has been known to be sequestered on such jaunts for weeks on end by  some clients who selfishly want to enjoy his company in an exclusive honeymoon beach setting, and it is hard to blame them.

Thanks Marcos, and yes, you're right who would blame anybody for wanting to spend time with him.

And, I have to admit I didn't realize he was so popular! 

Here's my shy boy from all the way back to 2004.

And here are some more of his recent pics.

Still quite handsome and he's grown up quite nicely.

Although I have seen Leandro many times, I have never gotten enough of him.  

One of the nicest guys you will meet in the sauna.  I have known him about 6 years.  He took a year off and went to Europe, but now he's back.  

I saw him in a Sauna hanging out with 2 or 3 other guys.  One of the guys looked a little older and it looked to be the center of attention.  They all looked as if they were speaking portuguese. 

I thought the one guy who didn't look like a "boy" was porno producer.  Do they use the Sauna's to scout? 

Back to Rafael/Leandro though.  What does he do and how much does he usually charge for just sex and possibly an overnight?  Trips to europe taints the boys because they expect a little more than usual. 

Thanx in advance for any information.  I'd like to see what leandro has to offer.  I've always had my eye on this guy.  I'd like to say I had sex with a GQ model too.

You are quite right. He is a wonderful guy, but very selective of his clients many of which are very wealthy or professsional Brazilians. I have also seen him in restaurantes and clubs with the same clients.

HI Yellow, read above what he likes to do, but he met me at my hotel room for a reasonable amount... R$100 + tip and spent a great deal of time hanging around.  R$200 + tip for an overnight.

Don't know how all the attention has affected him, but I would imagine he's still the same, sweet guy that he always was.

 Hello ... Porn producers have been using the Brazil saunas to scout for, like, decades.

 Sorry, couldn't resist ... at least since Kristen Bjorn ... well-known for using Roger's Thermas as a recruiting ground for years, including his very first, and arguably still his best, hard-core production here:

http://www.kristenbjorn.com/shop07/product_info.php?products_id=39

 "Carnaval in Rio" was definitely ahead of its time.

 According to legend,  Bjorn signed up  the infamous Joao Pau-zao at  Roger's.

Does someone by now have a cel phone number of him ? I had it, but I lost my old phone where I had stored his number. Does he still go to 117 ?

Yes he works at 117 on Tuesday and Thurs nights and I also saw him two weeks ago at the Old/New Spa73

I agree.. I rented Leandro's services for a whole week and he was so sweet and honest and friendly.. Very caring at all times... Another one that I love and been many times in Pablo Andrade Aka Ramon Mendez,, he is quite charming and the whole package.. 

I love Point 202 ,,, there Pietro, Fernando or Angel  will make your night one to remember... I am trying to post photos here but for some reason is not allowing to put them... nuts..

Hi jagjag,

Yes, the feature for uploading pics is temporarily down.  Long story.

Please e-mail us the pics at: info@gaytravelbrazil.com and I'll be glad to add them to your post.

Sorry and thanks for the info.

- Drey

I'm glad you said there was an issue with uploading picts.  I have a set from last year I'd really love to share!  My good friend from Bangu said he was bringing a friend he works with at his hotel over to "take pictures" with us (me & my boyfriend).  We were waiting at the bar downstairs and not one, but THREE hot guys made along on skateboards with our friend.  We had hot sex, took tons of photos, and I'd really love to share em!  I'll email them to you!

TomCal reports that Leandro is still the same and he had a great time in Rio last week.

Here's the pic he sent.

 

He's obviously lost a little of his Rio tan, but after all it is Winter there.  What a sweet guy!

- Drey

He is really very nice. Is there a phone number where he can be contacted ? Would love to hook up with him again.

Crazy4u,

E-mail us or private message me and I'd be glad to look for it.  I'm hestitant about posting phone numbers without their permission and also because they tend to change so often.
