Took a roadtrip from Rio to Minas Gerais last weekend (which was a 4 day weekend in Brazil).
Minas Gerais is a state just north of Rio de Janeiro state that is renowned for having very friendly women and a chill vibe.
Ouro Preto is a cute little colonial town that was riddled with tourists.
Had a couple of bars, and one huge nightclub near the main square. It was one of the most ghetto night clubs I've ever seen. Average age was like 20 and proper attire for guys was a white wife beater, faded jeans and a gold/silver chain. The girls were all pretty ghetto and were showing plenty of skin.
I'd say the colonial towns are great to visit but not so much for pussy. If I ever go again I'd make sure I know someone before hand to get into some house parties.
Ended up talking to 2 Paulista's around the corner at the bar but we couldn't pull them. They're a stingy bunch.
Belo Horizonte was dead empty when we arrived. It was like a ghost town. Went to the Savassi neighborhood where the bars are. They say it has the most bars per capita of any city in the world, and that can be true. People just chill outside, seated with their friends, so it's not the most approach friendly environment. After that, we bounced to a club called 'Swingers' (not a swingers club), which was awesome. Lots of gorgeous Brazilian women. You can makeout quickly with them, but one night stands are a different animal.
So overall a good trip, wished I'd skipped Ouro Preto and spent more time in Belo Horizonte though.
