Taxi-boys in Buenos Aires
Mention needs to be made here about
taxi-boys as rent-boys or hustlers are known in
Buenos Aires. They can usually be found on the street after 10 pm
on either Av. Santa Fe or Marcelo T. De Alvear between Av. Callao
and Anchorena. They will often be studiously examining the
contents of a shop window or waiting for a bus that never comes.
Their charges are lower than the escorts found on a web-site but
be very cautious if you think of contracting their services. Be
absolutely clear for what services you are contracting and for
how long; impromptu extras can be expensive. Don't carry excess
cash, valuables or credit cards with you. On no account should
you take one back to your hotel or apartment; there have been
cases of robbery, violence, and worse.
Go instead to an Albergue Transitorio (love hotel,
or telo) of which there are many around the city. To find a telo
there is a very useful web site with a search facility at -
Tentaciones Go to
Busqueda por Zonas, then with your mouse find the zone you want
on the map (probably Capital Federal) and click on there. A
larger map appears and again with your mouse find Recoleta or
Palermo and click on the district. A list of local telos with
addresses appears. A room for a couple of hours costs (depending
on facilities) from about $30 (US$10). Here are some that
advertise in the gay press: Que; Acapulco; Desiree; Waikiki;
Guaruya; Cedro Azul; Faraon. Telos rooms from my experience are
absolutely clean, nicely furnished, with private bathroom, and
the beds always have fresh sheets. Some rooms have water bed or
jacuzzi. They are very popular with couples who don't have their
own place; there is a law in the city of Buenos Aires that telos
cannot refuse same-sex couples.
