bulldog. you have found your calling. you should go in bussiness with making kits like that for all of us. when i look at your layout 3 things come to mind. 1 you are making alot of kids happy (nice touch. good for you) 2. my session wih the girl has got to be better. 3. the next time you session with the girl. you are sure to get a better deal at the very least. really its hits the other side of what we do. you are really going to make some kids day by giving them presents from the usa.i haved stocked up some reports and photos that will be forthcoming, but first a discussion for those of you who have expressed interest in building a "treasure chest" for the chicas.

the idea started because i was never convinced that the promise of a tip for good service ever amounted to anything. the chicas expect this and factor it into their prices. they think they have already earned their money just by talking to us at the club and walking into our room.

so when i bring presents and set them out, i tell them that if they please me they can choose three gifts, and if they rock my world they can choose five. "you really want to rock my world, don't you?"

unless they really suck i always let them have five.

i make them feel the leather before the session. i open the perfumes and let them sniff, encouraging them to select which one they are working for. we pick out the color of blush and eyeliner they want, as well as the coloring books that their children would most like to have.

next i give her a candy bar or cookie for each child, and one for herself, telling her to put them in her purse. then what the hell, take another for each one. just to establish how generous i can be.

then i set everything back on the table and we head to the bedroom.

when you think about how much we spend on airfare, hotel, meals, drinks, chica drinks, session fees and tips, you would be nuts not to bring along $50 or so in trinkets, which have the best chance of increasing the chicas' motivation to please you.

the most expensive item in my kit are the dodger tank tops. i had a couple dozen made up at $4.50 each.

most guys have no need for this. i had a friend who doubted that i had been with all the chicas and accused me of just downloading photos from the internet. so i began using the dodger t-shirt as proof. now it has taken on a life of its own and become my calling card.

i decided to give one to each chica as a momento of our time together. i tell her that every time she ever looks in her closet again, she will always remember the time she had sex with me.

the other items cost next to nothing. right now you can buy a christmas gift pack of four perfumes at walmart for around $9, or at cvs for 3 for $10. i picked up one called "celine dion" at cvs which has been especially popular.

i buy the crayons, colored pencils, glitter pencils, etc., at back-to-school sales in july and august. i paid ten cents each for a pack of 24 crayons. once or twice a year walmart and walgreens will unload their old coloring books for two for $1.

i always stock up enough to last me through the year.

i shop various dollar stores for the makeup. you don't need name brand makeup, but it doesn't hurt. they love the idea of getting american cosmetics. some dollar stores feature revlon, others maybelline, etc. get to know the stores in your local area.

keep your eyes peeled to pick up freebies. i have gotten sticker sheets, balls, beanie babies, etc., as giveaways for any number of reasons. never turn down a handout if someone in latin america might appreciate it.

i actually have people who bring me donations for my "children." they are impressed that when i travel i always strive to help the little ones.

i assure them it is all for the children.

the latest idea i stumbled upon is latina magazine. i bought a three year subscription for $1.58 on ebay because i like to "read the articles." i had received the fiirst two issues and decided to bring them along.

man, they were snatched up immediately! it has articles in both english and spanish, and the chicas went crazy over them.

tonight i just bought three more subscriptions to latina magazine so that i am well stocked for future mongering trips. five dollars well spent.

here's the kicker: after a satisfying session, be sure to return with the girl to the hdr or whichever club you found her. once there, have her take out her gifts and show them to her friends.

don't you think her friends are going to be looking for me to come in tomorrow night? what effect do you suppose this has when we are negotiating prices?

i hope this has gotten some creative juices flowing. i'd love to read how others build on this idea.

please let us know what ideas you come up with to add to the kit and how they work out for you.

suerte!

Hi all,

This goes out to all the veteran mongers.

Please help I am pretty well travelled but I am leaving sex prison soon for fun and here is my delima.

I have these choices Brazil, Columbia, Peru and Costa Rica for 7-10 days.

Here is what I am looking for as far as what I like when I travel:

1) Beautiful women both pro and non-pro.

2) Beautiful beaches and a good and atleast somewhat safe party scene.

3) Universities cloose by--love the college girls :)

I have been to Ibiza Spain twice very fun but very expensive, Buenos Aires alot of fun great prices but no good beaches at all.

So where would you go for 7-10 days with the above outlined goals?

Thanks in advance for your valued input.

DBYou are a kindhearted guy DB. All of us in this forum can see the poverty in these countries where we travel. We all do not have to be uncaring, one-track-minded, *****-mongering bastards. When I was in Argentina, I always had some gum or candy to give away to the begging kids (at 3 AM! ) hanging around the clubs and ST hotels next to the Recoleta cemetery in BA. If any of us have been to Help in Rio, we are witness to the hordes of street urchins there. I gave this GDP at the Monte Carlo terma a Spongebob watch I bought at Burger King in the States and she really did show me her gratitude in her performance. Heck, she might have performed that way without the gratuity but it is the gesture of giving that counts. This "treasure chest" idea of yours is a great one but it would only work in 3rd world countries, like CR, the Philippines, the DR, Cuba, any African nation, etc. I was just in Germany and there is really no need for this idea there. Anyways, keep up the good work, man.

Hello all,

I am staying at Hotel Melia Cariari for 6 days next week. Any suggestions on its chica friendly or suggestions for a few places to visit in town? Newbie from Jersey.

Damn ...... the Melia Cariari is supposed to be one of the more exclusive, older hotels in San Jose. Very posh and very sophisticated. It is way out towards the airport. I know a guy that always stays out there and I am certain he loves the ladies. However, he is worth a few million (not colones!) so I doubt they would ever give him any flack over girls.

Best of luck.

Buddy, I didn’t realize you were back in the Promised Land. I am eager to see your fine photos of the lovely ladies trying-out for the Dodger All Stars. I see your Dodger tank top in the goodies photo. I am glad the concept worked out. Where did you find someone to make these up for you at only $4.50 apiece? Throw in another 80 cents and our friend in La Linea would have done you. Remember her price (40 quetzales)? Please, I never want one of your Dodger tank tops. The thought of opening my closet, seeing a Dodger shirt, and it reminding me of you bouncing away naked on top of some sweet young thing …… damn, now I have to go poke out my Mind’s Eye!

Cognitive dissonance …… what the f’ ? Did you learn that from our friend, La Reina de la Linea? Translate that one into Spanish, buddy.

I spotted Evelyn lurking in the corner at the Blue Marlin, keeping to herself. The innocent, good-girl
look is what got to me, I guess.

I was surprised to learn that she speaks perfect English. She studied at the University to be an English
teacher, but found that it allowed her to earn much more working for an insurance company.

She says that she only comes in when she needs extra cash. She said she has come in once a month
since August. I tend to believe her, as she proved to be very inexperienced.

Evelyn is bright and well-informed about the world. We discussed politics, health care, and all
manner of other things before retiring to my apartment. She makes for delightful company.

I will give her an A for effort, as she tried really hard, and did her best to accept my coaching,
but the skills just aren't there.

I know this is a little personal, but her vagina was at an odd angle which made it difficult to keep
things in.

I like Evelyn a lot as a person, but I wouldn't repeat.

After being somewhat disappointed by my good girl the night before, I guess I was drawn to the
cheapest, sluttiest looking hussy in the entire HDR the next night.

What the hell was I thinking?

Maybe I was proud that I worked my ass off to get Monica down from cien to 35,000.

Actually, it was a contingent price. If it took more than ten minutes to get to my apartment I would
have to pay her the full cien. Since it was only 7 blocks away, I knew I would win this one.

Once she finally agreed, I immediately headed to the door with her before she could change her mind.

She was much too good to put on my Dodgers shirt, and refused to take any photos. So I reached into
my bag a tricks and pulled out a mask for her to wear.

Once she saw the image of herself her vanity took over and you can see the results.

When it came time for bed she demanded payment up front, which I refused, of course. She stuck
her tits in my face, thinking I would cave.

I told her we were done and it was time to go back. No sex, no pay.

It turned out that I got a photo session for the price of taxi fare.

She was pissed as hell that I wasted her time. I told her that I was pissed as hell that she wasted mine.

Monica is every bit as high maintenance and bitchy as she looks. Besides, I think she had a bad collagen
job done on her lips.

It all worked out for the best, as when I returned, I found the chica of my dreams. One that combines
the fresh-faced, innocent, good-girl-look that I love with a body that causes pure animal lust!

But since last summer someone showed the photos that I posted here to one of my chicas, everyone
is going to have to wait until I return to the US to learn about Adriana.

First of all, great screen name! Welcome to the forum.

Given the four options you presented, and considering that you want great beaches, I think your first choice should be Brazil (Rio) and a somewhat distant second should Columbia (Cartagena). IMHO Rio has the most beautiful women and the world's greatest beaches. Brazilian women love sex, too; almost every encounter is a GFE. Downside: Rio is rather expensive these days for Americans, given the decline of the dollar, and Rio can be dangerous if you don't use common sense (e.g., don't walk alone late at night, don't get too drunk). Rio also has a plethora of mongering spots.

Cartagena has great beaches as well, and beautiful large breasted women. In fact, I'm sure some Darwinian factor is at work with Cartagena women and their breasts, since they all have great ones. Most of the mongering takes place at La Dolce Vita. If you opt for Cartagena, stay at the Hotel Dann, right across the street from LDV and very girl friendly. Whichever one you choose, you cant' go wrong. But no monger should go through life without experiencing Rio.

I decided to dollar-cost-average my chica fees by hitting the MPs out on Paseo Colon. I figured if all
else failed I would have a nice lunch at Machu Picchu.

On two trips in the past I had not found Oasis open, but it was today. Might as well not have been. I could
not have possibly done any of the four chicas present. I was told there was another one busy in back, but
she would have had to look about 1000% better than the rest!

So I went around the corner to Sapphire and found three more chicas of the same caliber. Again I was told
that one was busy in the back, but I was already beginning to think about what I would order for lunch.

It took awhile for me to find VIPs two blocks down. I asked three bystanders before I finally figured out
which bell to ring.

This was much better. Five chicas were present. None was stunning, but four were doable in a pinch.

Two tried to hide their faces from me, but Rebeca was smiling big, and her eyes were begging me to
let her do the job. I figured that was a good combination.

After seeing that the room for 14,000 colones had only a rickety massage table, and the 17,000 room
came with a king size bed and jacuzzi, I opted to live large for an hour.

Rebecca is a little thicker around the middle than I normally prefer, but she was sweet and friendly and
very attentive to all of my needs. Not only did she take care of all expected business, there was plenty
of time left over for her to give me a legitimate massage in the jacuzzi.

Her BJ skills were top notch.

There was no rush at all. I was in the room with her about an hour and a half, and could have easily
stayed longer.

Rebeca told me that her share of the fee is 7000, and on a good day she gets two customers. She was
a nice girl and worked hard, so I left her with a generous tip.

Then it was off for some Chilean sea bass with cilantro and veggies over rice at Machu Picchu.

Some of you may remember my Maria from last July. We've been emailing regularly and were both
anxious to hook up again on this trip.

She came over at noon and left a short time ago, nine hours later. We had a fun time together.

She told me that she no longer works at the HDR, claiming that she has found the church. Thankfully,
the path that Jesus showed her brought her directly to my room!

As you can see, she likes taking photos. She is extremely proud of her culito. She had me put a shot that I
snapped of her ass as the primary photo on her Hi5 account.

She has put on a few pounds since I saw her last, as her hips aren't quite as razor sharp as they used to be.

Nonetheless, when Maria is walking along in her knock-me-down-and-fuck-me pumps, her 6' tall frame is
quite a sight to behold!

Later on she told me about a pilot from New York who has asked to marry her so she can move to the US with
him. I am hypothesizing that it may be the money he sends her each month that keeps her out of the Del Rey
now, even moreso than her devotion to the lord.

Just a wild guess on my part...

She told me that she likes him a lot but could never love him. She plans to marry him to get a green card
and live in New York with him for awhile.

Maria told me that I should expect a call in a couple years for the money to fly down to Florida, where she'll
come to live with me forever. She thinks Florida would be a better place to live than New York.

I am also sure that she thinks it would be nice to take all of my money once she has all of his.

So if the pilot from NY is out there reading this, consider yourself warned, buddy.

I love having sex with Maria!

Another excellent start to your trip. Great photos and reports.

I think the things Maria told you should be etched in the mind of any guy who starts to think about bringing one of the girls back to the states. She is very honest that she would do it just to get the green card, then start finding other novios to play with. It's one thing to send them some gifts in their home country, but never contemplate bring them here.

I bet your Monica has new guys falling all over themselves to take her out. She is the image of latina hooker most guys have in mind. Good job standing firm and getting rid of her. She was probably back in action within the hour.

I am looking forward to your furthere adventures.

The Del Rey was pretty empty when I stopped in about 2 PM. Just the way I like it.

It took less than 30 seconds after I had entered for Katharine's classic Tica look to grab me. I bided
my time while checking out the others, but I already knew she would be coming home with me.

We made our acquaintance and chatted it up a bit. When it was time to talk business, she told me
there was a new "rule" that the chicas can't leave for less than cien.

I guess we ended up breaking the HDR rules.

I told her the one rule we had to follow is that the chica always cums first. She gave me a look of
disbelief and told me it would never happen.

But I knew something she didn't: The Pocket Rocket never fails. It was fun watching a whole new
world open up to her.

Katharine is only 20, and has two babies, 2 years old and 4 months. So she still had a tad bit extra
around the middle and some recent stretch marks. I can deal with that.

But to my great surprise and pleasure, her breasts were natural AND fully loaded. And to think
that I had given up all hope of ever feasting on mother's milk again.

A mouthful of leche was well worth the price of admission all by itself!

I know it may make some of you squirm if you have never tried it. But nothing thrills me more than
the sickly sweet taste of mother's milk as it gushes over my face and down my tongue.

I wanted to fuck her engorged tits in the worst way, but she was concerned that she had to
breastfeed her baby when she got home. Katherine preferred that my cock not go there.

I guess I could see her point. Such a good mother!

You can see below how much she loved posing in the Dodgers tank top. It was the very first regalo
she requested.

Thief alert! I am pretty sure that Katharine slipped an extra perfume sample into her purse on the
way out the door.

And she left the shower dripping, too.

Chicas...

Can you do me a huge favor? Can you ask around and see if you can find out what happened to "Jamie" and if she's still around Del Rey. She worked there about 5 years ago last I saw her. I was in love with that girl. She would be around 28 now. Tica. Long brunette. Wore a lot of skirts. Pretty flat chested. Had a friend named Lisa. Worked during the day. Usually arrived around noon or 1pm.

I'd be forever grateful if you got any info on her. Maybe a picture if she's still there. I cannot return to CR (long story) but I'd like to meet up with her in another country sometime if I could track her down.

Maybe ask some of the long long timers that were working 5-6 years go.

To our American mongers: HAPPY THANKSGIVING everyone.

Five years ago is like five eons in the Del Rey!

I spoke to a couple of the older mujeres and they wouldn't even admit to having worked here five years ago.

"Tica. Long brunette." I saw quite a few like that. I don't think I'll be able to help you.

But please, tell us why you are banned from coming to Costa Rica. Enquiring minds want to know...

It reminds me of the 1971 song "Indiana wants me. Lord I can't go back there."

I'm a regular contributor on the Dubai site but have a trip planned to CR in February next year for the first time so regularly read this forum, its certainly more agrumentative than our usually friendly forum in Dubai. Some great information posted here though and I agree with your sentiment, do the research first before coming out with crap like "give me her number". We do get the same rubbish posted on the Dubai forum usually from people who only post once or twice then you never hear from them again (after a bit of flaming).

ToxHey Tox,
Call (506) 257-5151 and ask for Maria. There are a couple of them there so be sure to specify you mean the one that used to work at the Del Rey. They should be able to take care of you. The new place where she can be found is this outfit that deals with tourism in CR called VisionMundial. I hope that leads you in the right direction in your quest.

TGAM DB,
I appreciate your discretion in dealing with these chicas and really respect that. However, I have a little less sympathy for a chica who unabashedly admits to her plans to take gross advantage of some poor unsuspecting "lovestruck" fellow gringo without any inkling of how or why what she plans is so despicable and immoral. We manuever for a few hours of physical passion with these ladies (for which we handsomely reward them by local standards). She is manuevering to con this guy out of half his life savings. This foolish fellow gringo probably deserves whatever happens to him for being so gullible, but I hope he at least has enough sense to get her to sign an ironclad prenup before bringing her to the US (but I doubt it if he is foolish enough to send her money so she does not turn tricks with other guys like you or me). What I'd really like to get is HIS number so I can call him and warn him.

Frankly, while Maria IS a very attractive girl AND most of the chicas would do exactly as she is planning to do if given half a chance, I find it hard to understand why any guy with absolutely no history with her would want to SPECIFICALLY seek HER out. There are many many chicas as attractive as her that are ACTIVELY selling their wares and that one can readily find at the BM or better yet other similar venues in CR, without having to hunt them down.

I have a little less sympathy for a chica who unabashedly admits to her plans to take gross advantage of some poor unsuspecting "lovestruck" fellow gringo without any inkling of how or why what she plans is so despicable and immoral.I believe that Maria would love to follow through with her plan, but I doubt very much
that she will be able to pull it off.

I don't take her comments very seriously.

I guess I have the advantage of having spent several sessions with her, as well as staying
in contact by email over the past five months.

I have found that Maria is interesting, engaging, and tons of fun, but she is also young and
very naive. I think she talks a big talk as an attempt to cover up her intrinsic goodness
and innocence.

I am pleased that she felt comfortable enough with me to disclose her diabolical scheme.

I was quite surprised that she had the moxie to assign me the role as her meal ticket to
Florida, since we had never once discussed such a thing.

I have to wonder if her pilot knows any more of his "promise" to her than I did of mine.

I think this points out the symbiotic existence between us mongers and our chicas. We are
the co-dependent spark for each other's fantasies.

We come to Latin countries to engage in incredible activities unavailable to us back home.

We can act out our dreams with these beautiful young chicas and have absolutely no
strings attached. Unless we volunteer them a rope with which they can hang us.

In the meantime, a percentage of these girls fantasize that they will find a Prince Charming
who will sweep them away from their misery and carry them off to the promised land.

And the best part for them: they don't even have to kiss us on the lips. They can save that
for their novios!

I love to watch this waltz of sex, money, fantasy, and "amor," which plays itself out
hundreds of times each day on the ground floor of the Del Rey.

And as soon as one of them misses a step and lands on the top of our toes, it is easy
to trade off our partner and switch to a salsa beat.

I find the Del Rey to be the most romantic place on the face of the earth!

Hey DB, excellent report and beautiful girls.. Your care package for the novias is very similar to mine,,lol but maybe mine is on steroids because I throw in pretty nice stuff from Victorias Secret and Limited and Express and I go to the garment district where I get really nice jeans,shorts and skirts at WHOLESALE by using my connects.. Unfortunately where I go, the girls are really getting tuned into the label shit and are asking for specific labels for "regalos" but it really helps with my negotiating with the prepagos like 1/2 price or less... Oh p.s good job on the no-pay up front with Monica,, I would have had stayed away from her from the get go,, colored contacts and the fake boobs, peroxidized hair= high maintenance! Somebody had to pay for those boobs, no?

What! I am surprised to hear this from an experienced monger. To me, DFK is an essential part of a sexual encounter, especially if you're going to call it a GFE. But hey, we're all different. But as for me, I always screen the girl beforehand to see that she performs all the services I want, including DFK. After all, this is a business transaction, so I want to be sure of what I'm buying before money changes hands.

I like your idea of providing an array of trinkets for the chica to choose from. I think I'll try that sometime. I do a variation of that with money. After we agree on a price, I tell her that I always give a good propina for excellent and enthusiastic service, and I always follow through. Enjoy your pics.

If the girl is DFKing a lot, then that could add up to a sore throat for you. Any ideas on how to prevent sore throats from happening as a result of DFK action (other than no DFK to begin with)?

Hey Tox,

Call (506) 257-5151 and ask for Maria. There are a couple of them there so be sure to specify you mean the one that used to work at the Del Rey. They should be able to take care of you. The new place where she can be found is this outfit that deals with tourism in CR called VisionMundial. I hope that leads you in the right direction in your quest.

TGAM DB,

I appreciate your discretion in dealing with these chicas and really respect that. However, I have a little less sympathy for a chica who unabashedly admits to her plans to take gross advantage of some poor unsuspecting "lovestruck" fellow gringo without any inkling of how or why what she plans is so despicable and immoral. We manuever for a few hours of physical passion with these ladies (for which we handsomely reward them by local standards). She is manuevering to con this guy out of half his life savings. This foolish fellow gringo probably deserves whatever happens to him for being so gullible, but I hope he at least has enough sense to get her to sign an ironclad prenup before bringing her to the US (but I doubt it if he is foolish enough to send her money so she does not turn tricks with other guys like you or me). What I'd really like to get is HIS number so I can call him and warn him.

Frankly, while Maria IS a very attractive girl AND most of the chicas would do exactly as she is planning to do if given half a chance, I find it hard to understand why any guy with absolutely no history with her would want to SPECIFICALLY seek HER out. There are many many chicas as attractive as her that are ACTIVELY selling their wares and that one can readily find at the BM or better yet other similar venues in CR, without having to hunt them down.Hey Prolijo,

Thanks for the information.

DB,

I am flying into CR in about 2 weeks and will post my reports. Hopefully then you won't have any complains.

Do you bring a variety of sizes? Especially when it comes to jeans, one size wouldn't fit all.

Also, how many of each do you bring, and for how long a stay?

I would think it would be hard to stay under the baggage weight limits these days with
clothes packed for the chicas. Do you just pay for an extra bag or something?

I look forward to learning more from you.

Day 1

I arrived at SJO at 10 PM Wednesday night. Immigration was slow and I checked into HDR just before midnight. Note that I pre-arranged ground transportation with Interbus. The service worked fine and is only US$6 each way.

After checking in I proceeded to check out the sights at the hotel. My first impression was that it was much bigger than I expected and that there were far more girls than I expected to see.

I did not shop around much for my first chica experience as I was tired and simply wanted a little relief before I headed to sleep. Carla (20ish, morena, short) had a lively smile, spoke passable English and gave an average performance. Not a girl that I would recommend or try again but gave the service I needed. (I did chuckle when she started at "cien" as the forum had prepared me well for this. We quickly agreed to $60 and we were on our way)

Day 2

I woke up late on Thursday and was much better prepared for the day. After some coffee and a good breakfast I began to search for talent. I was in a mood to drink and laugh and had fun chatting with various girls (and of course buying drinks). One of the girls I spent some time with was actually a resident of Jaco and was in San Jose for the weekend to visit family and make some money. I forget her name but she was 30ish, blonde and very slim. She had spent three years in my native Toronto as a stripper and spoke excellent English. She was also a great source of local knowledge and shared some insight on the various girls. She had to leave to pick up her son at school and I expected to meet up with her later. I did not see her again and do regret not having a chance to session with her.

I ended up having a double with two chicas. (Jackie – 25, taller, blonde, implants; Julinha – 20, morena, slim and natural tits). They claimed to be hot for each other and we negotiated for $140 for 2 hours "completa". They actually showed very little interest in each other in the room but at least did show interest in me. The session was okay but nothing that I would consider memorable. I have to admit at this point I was beginning to compare Brasil to Costa Rica and was not impressed with the performance of Chicas. None of the three had shown any of the "love of sex" that I have experienced with most GDP’s.

I returned to the bar and decided to go to the restaurant. I had a very nice dinner and ended up talking to a gringo who was now a full-time resident of San Jose. He asked me about where I had been spending my time. He asked if I had yet experienced the "bathroom guards" or the bar at the opposite side of the lobby. When I appeared puzzled he offered to take me for a short walking tour of the different areas. I followed him and we stopped at various parts of the HDR as he explained the various areas. He also pointed out a few Columbians and Nicas and demonstrated how to tell them apart.

He left me to explore and I now had a new strategy. I decided to take my time, move around and shop the entire place. After about an hour I noticed a cute little mulata standing in the upper bar. We talked briefly and began to discuss price. We ended up at $80 for 2 hours "completa". I cannot remember her name but she was great. She was about 20, very slim, no tattoos, no implants and very sensual. She was into DFK, did not watch the clock and left the room every bit as satisfied as I was.

Day 3

I had gone to bed at a reasonable hour the night before and now had a chance to see the HDR in the morning. One of my lasting memories of HDR is that the place truly has different cultures at different times. The morning is more low-key, the afternoon starts to pick up tempo (the "shift change" between 3 and 5 is quite interesting), the evening is the full buffet and late night is when some bargains can truly present themselves.

I spent several hours talking to an older girl (again I cannot remember her name but she is slim, late thirties and has been at HDR for a number of years). She seemed to be friends with quite a large number of the younger girls and the table was busy as others tried to share in their friend’s bounty (free cigarettes and free drinks)

I originally had no intention of having a session with this woman but after sitting back and watching her low-key manner and enjoying our conversation, I decided to give her a try. It ended up being my second memorable experience at HDR. She was skilled, loved DFK, knew all of the positions and had a surprisingly tight little body. She laughed afterwards at how much fun she would have teasing the younger girls about being chosen instead of them.

I finally ventured out of HDR later that afternoon and did a little shopping and sight-seeing. The city has more of a "big town atmosphere" and is quite easy to navigate. I managed to locate some of the places that I had read about in the forums (El Presidente, SL, etc) but soon decided to return to the hotel.

I figured I was due for one memorable session prior to my return the next day. At around 6 PM I began to look for something exotic. I considered trying out one of the Columbians but frankly am a little turned off by large silicone tits. As I was walking through the upper bar I heard a soft little "hola" and turned back to see a tall Dominican with a big smile. We talked for a bit and I invited her to join me for dinner. We went across to the restaurant, shared a bottle of wine and had a very nice dinner. She then suggested we go to the little bar where we could sit a little closer and finish the wine.

Again I cannot remember her name but she has been in CR for almost a year. She is tall, slim and has no surgical enhancements. I brought up the subject of her fee and she said that we could discuss later. I told her that I did not want any misunderstanding later and preferred to simply get this out of the way up-front. We agreed to $70 for 2 hours.

This ended up being the highlight of my trip. This girl was into it from the moment we hit the door to my room. Everything was on the menu and I sampled it all. I think we started around 7 and when she left at 10ish I could hardly stand. LOL. She did not discuss any additional fee but I handed her an extra $50. She offered to stay the night but frankly I needed some sleep.

I returned home on Saturday and have had time to reflect. I admit to being biased towards Brasil but CR is truly a unique mongering experience. I will return as CR is easy to get to for short stays and is reasonably priced. I am also rather in awe of the whole concept of a "live-in brothel". Another little side note is that the San Jose airport seems to function more efficiently than any other in Latin America. I paid my exit tax, checked in at Delta and was through security screening in about 25 minutes.

What would someone get out of showing the girls their picture online?

So now these girls are going to go back and tell their friends and NONE of us can get pics at all.

DB,

Sorry to hear about this BS re chicas being aware of your photo postings. I don't think its fair to blame CRT per se, however. MOST CRT members get just as upset when this unfortunate situation happens to them, and CRT administrators have specifically expressed their disgust at this kind of behavior. Is it possible that an idiot or two who happen to be CRT members are guilty here? Of course.

I can certainly understand if you never post another photo, but I really hope you do not stop posting accounts of your experiences in CR. You are truly a top-tier contributor on this board, and I have greatly enjoyed perusing your entertaining and informative posts.

Bulldog,

I address this to the paste eater sitting in the back of the class licking the window like the loser he is. ((the one that exposed your pics to the chicas))

Pathetic fools ruin good things everyday. Jealousy? Envey? What could motivate a you to show some hooker a picture ANYONE has posted of them on the net?

Do you feel you are scoring points with them? This is your "in" with the chicas? Are they going to throw their arms around you and worship you for being the savior? What a butthead!

And to post Bulldogs pictures, which are easily identified as his because of the jersey photos. Seems that maybe you have a vendetta to single him out. I have also gone the route of the Jersey photo so it would be easy for the chicas to recognize me as the photographer if they were shown. If you think the chicas are not aware, you are an idiot. They pose for and allow the photos. But you rubbing their nose in it and showing them the pics? WHY?

Kind of a "don't ask, don't tell" policy.

So get a life and stop ruining others enjoyment.

Bulldog, (You should be a Sox fan)

I understand the frustration you go through when losing trust in someone...especially when you believe they are on your team.

However there are solutions to posting pictures and not identifying the girls...you can still use your jersey but have them turn their head away or just crop the foto appropriately so they cannot be easily identified...

You may have problems with tatoos or jewlery but this can be worked with

ok here goes my cr rookie report.

first part i will describe cr itself.

then i will compare it to my normal mongering spot dr(pop).

well i went down on thanksgiving day.

i read a great report from kid brooklyn before hand that warned me of the long lines.

as soon as i got off i headed straight to the immigration line (which was empty) but on the way i passed the cambio booth and decided to stop and even $45 i feel uncomfortable in a country and not having any local currency.

this was a big mistake.

by the time i turned around what was once a empty hallway now had a line stretching past the little shop on the right hand side.

an hour later i was through customs.

getting a cab to morazan was fairly easy.

the airport guy snatched me up before the local cabbies could get a shot.

morazan

i heard horror reports of people not getting their reservations correct, but they had me down got my safe key and card in like 15 min.

the room was clean, shower was hot tv worked.

i really had no complaints. since our friends on spirit air done feed us i was starving.

i ordered something from the hotel while i didn't expect great hotel food i didn't expect it to be quite so bad but hey cest la vie.

since i only changed $45 at the airport i went to the casino so i could change about 300 more.

the lady said no can do only 100.

i was a bit perturbed by this since it was already 7 and the cambio across the street was closed.

off to hdr.

i went up o their casino booth and the woman changed the whole $300 no questions asked.

she then told me where the world famous blue marlin was and up i went.

i hung out there till about 10 and the place was jumping.

there was a wide variety of girls there tall short ticas nicas colombianas domincanas. qite a few had tit jobs done.

many looked like they were out of some magazine or wanna be models, with the attitudes to match.

also saw lots of lots of guys drinking and having a good time.

i met a few of them hell some of them may even be board members and i didn't even know it.

after about 2 hours there this black dominican girl was dad on my case.

she was a little too chubby for my taste so i just bull shitted and brushed her off.

then i saw this tall slim morena i flirted with earlier when i saw her on the street.

called her over bought her a drink and we talked for about a half hour.

i told her i had to go to the rest room for a sec.

when i came back she was poof, gone like smoke.

i hung out for another 1/2 hour then went over to key largo to see what they were saying.

soon as i walked in i saw the sme chick hanging out in kl talking to a local dude.

i decided to leave that alone and see what else was there.

there were quite a few girls there but they seemed to be into themselves or not too concerned with me.

they few that i did speak with said cien right off the top of course i was prepared for this and got a few down to $70 after a lot of talk but none budged from that.

fast forward to 3am its been a long ay/night.

i caught this colombiana; about 32 sitting by herself.

we chatted she started off at cien.

i talked her down to $50 for 45 min after 15 min of work.

back to morazan with her.

after the clothes came off i could really asses her rating on a scale of 1-10.

she was a 6 imho.

ass was not firm but she was pleasant did bbbj and i was able to bust one so all in all it was not a waste of time.

friday i decided to check out the infamous zona blue in the morning.

i took a cab since i still didn't know up from down in cr.

once i saw how close it was that was the last cab ride there.

there were 2 american guys sitting around the bar, bothere were staying at the hotel and about 3 girls.

they explained to me that they only had to tip the girls since they were spending $250 a night.

with that being the case they already went through mast of the good looking girls and gave me the heads up.

there was a set of 2 nica sisters.

i took the younger one (without discussing anything before hand) for a half our session.

she really seemed to get into it but would not do bbbj nor finger her nor doggy, but her body was hot and she rode like a champ.

well worth the 30 min for a taste.

later that day i went back to hdr for some early evening action.

i hung out with a guy i met there till these 2 tica morenas came up to me.

one i liked very petite fit body the other was thicked and a little out of shape.

however i figured if they got into it should be worth it.

we talked for about 15 min negotiating the 2 of them.

they started at 200 for the two.

i got them down to $130 and off we went to morzan.

the girl at the front desk told me it was a $10 chica fee for the 2nd girl.

i didn't know this before hand.

however it was no biggie.

in the room they bothe took their clothes off.

the one that was petite and good looking would not let me finger her or do doggy.

and not only would she do nothing with the other girl (which they said they would) she would not even mess with me while the other one was on top.

all she would do was sit there and sometimes talk or allow.

yes i said allow me to do missionary.

after a while i told her in spanish that she needs to get a new profession.

i explained to her that is was not too late fr her to go back o school and maybe become a nail tech or hair dresser for the working girls in hdr.

maybe i should have waited till after her chubby friend was riding me because she started yapping on and on about "see why i like the old men they cum really quick and all i have to do is jack them off for $150. ".

at that point i said look.

there are a few clean towels in the rest room and a hot shower would do you good right about now she stomped off talking to herself"miht as well since i am worthless and need another job. ".

her ten min in the shower was the best.

her friend satisfied me 10 min later.

when the little cute one cam out i made sure to let her know this also.

they took their money and left.

saturday

i went over the mp list and decided i would try and find one of them today.

after the good session at zb.

i figured maybe thats what sj was about.

and the girls there would be more fun than hdr girls.

the 1st one i found was the dungeon 70e its pachy pink coloured with black door and has 70e painted on the front.

i say this to you future cr virgins that go there becaus i had to learn the hard way hat the country of costa rice does no believe in 2 things.

area codes or street signs.

however its located on avenue 7.

well at least i think.

anyhow.

this place is a cheap local joint something like 8000 cl for a 30 min session.

its the exact opposite of zb.

in not only that sense the performance of the girl.

she did bbbj and much to my amazement swallowed.

however i don't think i would go back there its way too cheap and dirty and i'm afraid of crabs from the beds or lice.

but for those of you brave sould thats where it is.

later on that day i tried to find the other local mps but had no luck.

until i went to get some food and met another monger.

he directed me to europe 2000 which was so discret i walked by the place 3 times and didn't notice it. i guess i figured they would not have the audacity to have such a place directly across the street from the busy bus stop.

the wome there were ugly but it was run by a nyrican who spoke perfect english.

so thats a plus for those of you who are spanish challenged.

the other place is across the street and less that 50 meters down.

for all intents and purposes lets call tis the golden gate place.

thi was even more discreet i would have never found it without the fellas help.

the girld there were few (2) but looking much better about a zb level.

the fellow monger and i decided to go with them.

the one i had was a really short 19 yo nica.

i would rate her as a 7.

15000 see for a hour.

great service clean rooms.

and they also function as a hotel for $26 a night.

with safes in rooms.

just shared bathrooms.

the girl i was with gave me her number in case i wanted to have one one one time in my room at a later date.

went back to kl later that evening and basically messed around.

at this point i had no interest in picking up girls in hdr or kl.

as i was not feeling them at all.

i resolved myself to hanging out with female canadian tourists and joking around with the working girls only one did i find appealing but she refused to accept my $60 at 3am.

so i lost interest and went back to bull shitting.

sunday was much of the same.

since the mps were closed i toured the city and talking with guys at hdr.

went to vip later in the night but didn't see anything appealing.

monday

i went oto see the dentist steve recommended.

his name is sergio chen or as i nicknamed him dr smiley.

he saw me the same morning i called.

the office was clean as well as the rooms inside.

he was really pleasant and smiley.

what i needed to get done was braces.

in order to do the braces they mus remove 4 perfectly fine teeth (which was exactly what a dentists in the states told me).

anyhow dr smiley said he can pull the 4 teeth for $50 usd.

and an orthodontist he works with can slap on the braces for $400-500(i was quoted $5900 in the stated after a 2week wait for an appointment).

needless to say i was satisfied with this answer and will be returning to cr to do this and only this.

as mongering in cr is not my cup of tea.

on the way home.

this airport is slow.

if you go.

1st go pay your tax $26.

then fill out the form.

before you get to the ticket counter.

no one told any of this and it was mass confusion when we got up there.

ok this is getting longer than i tought so let me do my quick run down comparing cr to dr.

flight:

my tix to cr was $300 from miami 3 months in advance.

however at least 2 people on the plane said they got tix for $200.

tix to dr(pop) usually run me about $400.

they only tax your $10 though and they force you to pay it up front.

before you even get to immigration.

it kinda helps when going back.

the cities:

san jose: landlocked.

noisy and full of city people going about doing their hustle and bustle.

very fast pace like any major city and not very relaxing.

mongering seems to be side action of he city not the major attraction.

sosua (dr)is a sleepy little one road town on the coast.

beaches are within walking distance.

no big buildings no hustle hustle no casinos.

just a lot of girls.

bars

and guys on motor bikes taking you from a-b.

everything is within walking distance and its fairly safe at night.

i have walked back to my pad there at 3am on several occasion without incident nor have i heard of incidents.

accommodations:

san jose i only saw hotels to say at.

morazan cost me about $45 per night which is pretty good.

i had no issues witht he hotel at all besides the little chica fee for having 2 girls, them forgetting to bring the food i brought up to my room and refusing to change more than $100.

other than hat it was fine.

dr: 1st time there i got a hotel room.

65 per night.

safe in room.

there was no chica fee but they do check ids.

however.

there is another hottel called eupropa which is almost like the hdr of sosua.

girls hanging out there all day and night.

however i usually get apartments.

i rent them out for $35 per night; depending on season of course.

i get living room and bed room and balcony with this.

no safe in the rooms.

no chica fee.

nor do i have anyone checking for her id(in case she forgets it. get your borderline **** minds out the gutter lol).

finally the girls.

san jose

i fount the women to be very fake in attitude and body.

full of themselves and robotic when it came to sex.

it was really hit or miss few girls at the mp seemed to give a decent screw.

but that was a quicky.

i don't know who/what /how when the girls got spoiled down there but the cien asking price is ridiculous imo.

sure they can be negotiated down but the fact that i have to run my mouth for a few min i find highly annoying.

walking through the hdr reminded me way too much of walking through clubs in miami.

were the woman are waiting on men to pick them up.

all of the for your grand whole 60 min of fucking pleasure.

sure i read stories of women feeling guys up and they walked thru the crowd but while i was there the only women who felt me up were the dominicans.

speaking of them.

dr

in sosua they basically have 2 ways to meet working girls.

in the clubs or on the street not street walkers per say but in front of your hotel or catching girls while doing your or their every day routines.

in the clubs at night the women are trying to [CodeWord123] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord123) me.

never in my life have i been groped tugged on by so many women.

now this is a matter of personal preference but i don't like the centerfold silicone barbie doll look i find the girl next door far more sexy.

after choosin one of these serial [CodeWord127] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord127).

many of them walk back to my apartment with me for 1000 pesos or $30.

if i really like her she gets $45. this has only happened once by the way.

no crying on her end over price no negotiating no yapp yapp yapp if i don't want to. she just agrees to $30.

timeis never discussed.

if i pick her up in the day time she usually hangs out untill i bust.

if i pick her up at night in the club and its closing time abound 2:30 am.

she come back to my place for tln.

this has been this experience with me and all of my friends.

actually i brought a dr virgin down with me onece and his first dr session was a freebie because she liked him.

conclusion

cr will only see me again for cheap dental treatment.

not for mongering.

now i know i only did cr once on a short trip so don't think i'm coming down un the place too hard. i'm fully aware i'm truly novice there.

but i just wanted to convey my experience from the little time i spent.

i hope someone gets something out of my post.

Brief report of my thoughts......after being in residence in San Jose for the last seven weeks.
And I have made many trips to CR and SJ in the past....

The local girls.......after meeting perhaps over 100 of them in the last 6 to 7 weeks.....Tica, Nicas, Colombianas, DR.s, etc. I have come to the realization that they are only interested in ONE THING.....and that is how many bucks you are going to shell out to them in like the next hour.

It does not matter if you have a nice big expensive house here, or car, or boat, or anything. You could be Donald Trumps younger monger brother....with riches in the BILLONS.....none of that matters to the chicas....and we are talking about the working girls plying their trade almost anywhere in Central America.

They simply do not care about anything else other than how much money you are going to give them.....not this month, not this week, not today....but only in the next hour or so.

The biggest mistake I´ve made in the last few weeks since living here is that I thought since I had a $ 300,000.00 home located about 3 miles from downtown SJ with 6 bedrooms, 7 baths, swimming pool...that that was going to ¨"cut some ice" with any of the local working girls. They could simply give a shit less about all that.

And another thing is that once they figure out that you are living here more or less full time....then they consider you to be a "local gringo" and as soon as they find out that....they will drop your ASS like a "frita caliente"....the world famous....hot potatoe.

They mostly are looking for gringos who blow into town for a few days or a week, and who have a hotel room close at hand. Within walking distance if possible....like you meet them in the DR...then they only really want to go up the elevator to your room....give you a quick covered BJ....and a covered Quickie Fuck....get their $100.00.....and be back downstairs within the shortest time possible from start to finish......even before the leche dries on your dick.....if they can manage it.

Then its on to the next guy with $ 100.00 in his pocket.............

It happens in the DR probably over 100 times a day....hell maybe 200 times a day on a weekend.....and Big John the owner or the DR pays them absolutely nothing....nada....to work there....but collects his $ 10.00 every single time they go up and down the elevator to your overpriced room at the Del Rey Hotel.

Back to the working girls....they will lie, cheat, do anything they need to do to put some good cash in their pocket...........they don3t give a SHIT about any guy.....only the money he gives them....so fellas be advised.

One other small thing....I have met perhaps 2 or 3 gals in the last 7 weeks who I thought might be a good canidate to invite to go to the beach...Jaco, or possibly to Bocas del Toro, Panama for a nice weekend, or on to Panama City for a week.....but I have thought way better of doing that.....hell it would be exactly as they say , " to carry coals to Newcastle "....or to the unlformed......."to bring sand to the beach". Save your time and your money....and forget doing anything like that.

This old dog has been (nearly) everywhere, laid countless numbers of hoes....and the bottom line is this.......none of the gals gives a Shit about who you are, what you do, where you come from, or anything else. Nuff said ........

I do not say this in anger...., as I am not angry at them or myself.....this is just a "heads up" to all who pass this way.

Pura Vida

You guys need to realize that what stevewxly is saying is spot on. They do not like you, they like your money.

Perhaps you need to look for chicas outside San Jose. I too lived there in 2002, and a lot of what you say is spot on. However I did hook up with several non working girls, that were just happy with a nice dinner, but you have to develop these relationships. Not every tica will open their legs on the first date.

You guys also have to remember in the eyes of the working girls, americans are nothing but money trees. The working girls in most cases, are uneducated, and cannot fathom something like a middle class guy. It just does not exist in their minds. We are nothing but walking ATM's to many of them.

But look at it from their standpoint. They are like Professional athletes. Their careers do not last very long, in the scheme of things, also no pension plan, no social security, no medical, no dental etc...Deep down many of them have grandeur of someone like Richard Gere ( movie-Pretty Woman), coming to rescue them from their lives. The odds for this happening to them is about 10000 to 1. My point is that they have to make as much money possible in the shortage period of time, in order to secure a future for themselves, their kids and in many cases mama also. THEY DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOU...

Spent a great Turkey Day visit in SJ, just getting back on Tuesday.

Had I known it, they have a turkey buffet at the New York Bar that we missed out on. But I digress. We stayed at the Balmoral and were pleasantly surprised. It was very clean, the staff very friendly. One thing I didn't do, is if you book a room for two, you get a bigger room. You still get hit for a chica fee however. Not sure what the fee was, but my bill for the four nights was $51, the room was already paid for in advance. That covered the three girls I took up to my room. They have a decent free breakfast too.

As for the girls. Let me add my thoughts. They have very beautiful girls in the HDR/KL area that make men drool. My strategy is to look for the one's off by themselves, not flaunting themselves. Why? Because generally, the first topic is "where are you staying, do you want company" is the first thing out of their mouths.

I found one girl the first night in the New York Bar, invited her over to my spot and we had a great time. Never did the topic of money come up, even after the romp in my room. Did I pay, yes, but nowhere near the $100 asking price the fake tit Barbie-doll girls ask. I did it to be nice and pay for their time. All three that I ended up with were all nighters. And the second and third girl I met were both out of the HDR. Were they 10's, no. Were they in the 7. 8 range, most definitely. And, I don't feel the need to show them all over the internet in photos like they were trophies. If you respect them, they'll respect you.

I also have to add that there are a lot of classless Americans who give us a bad name down there. Some advice; clean up your act, don't get drunk like a college frat boy and show some class, it goes a long way.

Happy hunting

stevewxly ...welcome to reality.

Trying to impress girls with houses only leaves them laughing at you when you leave. They have played the game many times with every guy that gets off the plane.

What they don't tell you is that they often have a husband or BF (non gringo) sitting at home. I tried to tell you a few weeks ago to make sure the girls knew the score of how you were going to run your party. If they show up, they expect results. They don't leave their kids, husband/bf behind for nothing.

Many guys that get off the plane promise them the same thing: the world. The guys know it's bs and the girls do too. They aren't stupid. They live in the moment. There is no tomorrow. There is only right now. Each side is trying to play/manipulate the other and the girls will often win. They get plenty of practice.

I lived in SJ for more than a year and saw the same thing play out every day by many guys. I was in Del Rey every day. As soon as your cash dries up or you become much more work than the next guy, they will dump you. I even tried the bartenders at Del Rey. Managed to get one to a movie. Nothing else.

btw: big tippers at the bar at Del Rey are another butt of the joke. The bartenders laugh about it. They play you and get the tips. You rarely get anything.

In general, this is true. However, there are exceptions. Back when I lived in CR, there was a lady working at del rey that had been there over 10 years. She was easily in her 50's or 60's. She was very popular with the older guys. She turned more tricks than many of the young girls. She was good company for the guys that just want companionship because they could no longer get it up.

Not sure if she's still there.

THEY DO NOT GIVE A SHIT ABOUT YOU...Give me a break.

I’ve learned that whenever I read such extremist views that one should take things with a very hefty
dose of scepticism.

Of course the chicas are in business to take money. Thank god they are! Otherwise there would be
no reason whatsoever for me to ever go to Costa Rica.

Certainly some of them are surgically enhanced sharks out to get as much of your money as they can in
as short of time as possible with the least amount of effort.

Are they all that way? Of course not. None of us would ever return to CR if they were. But many, if
not most of us, do in fact return.

Why? Because we LIKE the chicas.

I totaled up my sessions over the past week and for my trip in July. I like to finish the week with a repeat
of my favorite for each trip. Including the repeats, I had a total of 21 sessions. Here is how I rate them:

OUSTANDING: Great sex, unrushed, with an obvious efforts to please me, and money was not a big
issue: 14, plus the two repeats, total 16. (12 Ticas, 3 Colombianas, 1 Nica.) Two have asterisks:

• As discussed in an earlier report, Evelyn was lacking the experience and skills to be great in bed. But
I give her an “E” for effort. She was genuinely upset that she did not please me more. Due to her positive
attitude, I am not going to hold it against her.

• I ended the week with a repeat of an ATF, who is one of the sexiest women I have ever seen and
absolutely blew my mind in bed again. When we finished, I made the mistake of giving her a generous
tip and telling her she was the very best. Suddenly she decided that she must have sold herself short.

She began begging for cien, then demanding it, and then screamed at me in the street as I got into
my taxi to the airport. Despite this unpleasantness at the end, it was awesome GFE and animal sex at
a very reasonable price, so she remains on my good side.

JUST OKAY: Issues with time, attempts to set rules, and less than optimum effort: Three, all Ticas. I didn’t
feel ripped-off, but I would not repeat with these chicas.

BIG MISTAKE: Lots of rules, totally rushed, half-assed effort, and only concerned about money: One, a
Colombiana. Initially I had let her walk away from me at HDR, and should have stayed with my gut instinct.

ABORTED SESSION: Ended when payment was demanded up front. Kicked her out the door with no money
spent: One Tica.

If you are looking for true love, you definitely have come to the wrong place.

But if you are satisfied to find great sex with incredibly hot young chicas, enjoy some companionship, and
are willing to engage in a personal connection for a few hours, you can easily find those things here.

In fact, it is pretty hard to fail.

If you don't win more times than you lose, it is time to look in the mirror and check your own game.

I’m not exactly a newbie and I have also mongered multiple times in many other countries – Colombia,
Argentina, Brazil, Guatemala, El Salvador, and some European countries. Each has a different system,
along with its own pluses and minuses.

Is Costa Rica my favorite place in all the world? No.

But if I can be satisfied in Costa Rica 80% of the time, and many other mongers continue to return, maybe
is really isn't so bad after all, huh?

Can hundrerds of satisfied customers all be wrong?

Now, doesn't that sound a little bit more realistic way to look at the situation?

Thanks guys for not being to critical of my last report......

After writing it.....I got to thinking that many could really think I was "way out there" with my thoughts.....but with the last couple of days passing, and with only a couple of comments.....and those were mostly positive.....I will just say I appreceiate ' all the good spirited ' remarks and will say thank you for no one actually "jumping down my throat" for my comments.

My little treatsie on my thoughts was more for me than anyone else....a "self examination" if nothing else.

I did not mean to be overly critical of the local working girls in Costa Rica....especially the ones who work out of the DR.
Instead I meant to come to some kind of realization of why I spent so much time in the DR....and why I was even in CR in the first place.

Bottom line for me is....that I like to hang out with young, attractive girls, ....who in the first place will even take the time to say "hello" to an old fat, fart like me.

It would not happen in the good old US of A....where I am sitting right now.

I flew back last night to take care of some business here....but will be going right back to San Jose in about 7 to 8 days once my business is completed here.

I am still at the large house just East of San Jose....and will probably be there kicking around all by myself.....as I also found out that most Gringos will not go out of their way to come out to visit or anything else.....and that mostly the chicas will not come out.....unless they have some advanced guarantee of making some good money on the deal.

I have a couple of buddies who I've met while in SJ....and we hang out there, and have had have a few girls out occasionally....but the big parties with lots of guys and lots of chicas.....just never did FLY.....as I thought would.

For the first party that I planned at the house....I bought about 3 cases of beer (and I am a non-drinker). I have slowly been passing out the FREE beer to a couple of buddies...but still have about 2 cases of it left.

My two or three gringo buddies appreceiate that though....as they know they can always have a couple of free beers at my place when they stop by.

No matter, I am still having fun..........and as Gen. McArthur said about the Phillipines......long ago...... " I shall return "..... and soon.

Again....... Pura Vida to All ....... and I will be looking forward to many "otra dias en Pasidico" (sp)........when I get back to CR in a few days.

And from now on, I will try harder to "chill out more", and to be more like the chicas....whom seemingly live for the moment.....and therefore seem not to be overly concerned about what could happen tomorrow.

Steve,

My 2 cents, why don't you stop by the crt poker game on fridays and play. You will meet at least 10 to 15 americans who live in san jose and (my guess) know many, many ticas that will make your little party come to life. I played in it on my last trip and met a great group and from what I know and what I have seen. This would be a group that at the very least will point you in the right direction.

Five years ago is like five eons in the Del Rey!

I spoke to a couple of the older mujeres and they wouldn't even admit to having worked here five years ago.

"Tica. Long brunette." I saw quite a few like that. I don't think I'll be able to help you.

But please, tell us why you are banned from coming to Costa Rica. Enquiring minds want to know...

It reminds me of the 1971 song "Indiana wants me. Lord I can't go back there."

Prolijo;

You posting about your freind " Vegas Bob" interests me. he is the guy who kept telling me how dangerous it was to take photos of the chicas at Zona Blue. He thinks he is the godfather of the Del Rey and Zona Blue.

I just smirked at him and told him to mind his own fucking business. however I did meet Don Gordo, could not have been a nicer guy....

Vegas Bob is a good guy, who has been helpful to many a monger. I would highly doubt that Bob would charicterize himself as the godfarther of the DR, and does not go to ZB that often, from what I know. I do know that he spends enough time at the DR to know the lay of the land, and certainly knows enough of the girls to be able to provide some useful intel...

YMMV, as they say..

MJG Dogs

12-26-07, 03:38

VMMV- But any fool can figure out " the lay of the land" in the HDR. There is enough sites with information to choke a horse.

My point is that I don't need some old man churping about taking photos of chicas, when jesus chrsit there are thousnad of photos of Zona Blue Girls, HDR Girls etc.. all over the place.

Whatever................. besides Colombia is much better anyway...............

Prolijo

12-26-07, 05:30

MJG, there may be thousands of photos of ZB and BM girls out there, but that doesn't mean it can't be dangerous to POST pictures of chicas. Unfortunately, there are assholes out there who will reveal to the chica that her picture is on the web and, IF you haven't gotten their express permission (as I suspect most haven't), there are certainly chicas that will get pissed off as a result. I'm not even going to get into the debate about whether its a good or bad thing to take photos, whether we should post them or enjoy what others post. That issue is beside the point. Regardless of how one feels on that, they should recognize that if they do post a photo without a chica's consent it COULD get back to her and there COULD be consequences and therefore, right or wrong, it CAN be dangerous. Maybe you don't care, if you never want to session with that chica again, but there are still consequences. I know from personal experience that there are many chicas who no longer allow pictures to be taken at all because they found out about some unauthorized pics of them that were posted by somebody else. So I don't think that is just a matter of YMMV. You can debate the ethics of posting pictures if you want but the possible danger is a more a matter of fact.

As for VB. I am certain that he'd never characterize himself as the godfather of ZB, or the BM for that matter, but certainly not ZB. He is not really into the MP places, so to suggest he ever said or even implied that he was some sort of ZB expert is absurd. YOU simply INFERRED that because he somehow rubbed you the wrong way. As for the BM, there are lots of guys who are regular SJ VISITORS and who are also regulars at the BM whenever they are IN TOWN, but there are few expats who actually LIVE in the SJ area and who go to the BM EVERYDAY or just about. As hard as it is for the casual visitor to believe, there is such as thing as too much of a good thing and the BM scene can actually grow very old if you go there every day, day after day and month after month. Very few expats continue to go there as regularly as Bob after living in SJ as long as he has. VB is one of the relatively few expats who can be seen at the BM virtually every day and while that might not make him the godfather of the place it certainly puts him in a position to be more knowledgeable about the recent comings and goings of the place than just about anyone else. If he dons the title of godfather it is only because scores and scores of mongers have conferred it upon him.

Yes, there are enough sites with information to choke a horse and to get to know the basic lay of the land before you go, without having to rely on someone like Bob, but there are some things you can't get so easily from just reading. And as for the photo's, they may be of good entertainment value and even of some limited help once you get down there, but you're vastly overstating their usefulness even if there have been thousands of photos posted over the years. Chicas come and go like the wind and even the ones that have stayed on can often vastly change their look. Only the most recent of photos are of any real potential use. Even with those anybody who thinks they can pick out one or two photos of chicas they're interested in and go down there and be guaranteed that they'll be able to find those 1-2 particular girls is sadly mistaken of the way things typically work. And what are the guys to do? Memorize all the photos and then go down there and be able to pick those girls out of a line up? Perhaps, but I really doubt it. Besides, for every girl with a photo up somewhere on the web there are at least 10 more without.

If you want to restrict yourself to the chicas who have recent pics and haven't changed their hair color, lost or gained weight, are still around on the night you come in and not off with one of their other regular gringo novias who also happen to be in town and think you can remember the photo well enough to be able to pick them out from a crowd of 100 other chicas in the BM on a typical given night and forego any of the many other chicas who will also be there just because you couldn't find any photos of them on the web before your trip, then go ahead. Personally, I think that would be a very foolhardy strategy.

I think a much more sensible strategy is to focus on the girls who are actually there on the night you come in rather some chica whose picture might have taken months or even years before and who probably won't be around when you get there. And lacking any written review and photo that you can easily match up with the girl in front of you how do you tell if she is any good. There are several valid methods but simply being able to ask another monger who has already been with her himself or failing that talks to so many guys at the BM day in and day out that he has heard the reviews on all the girls and can point them out to you, is one of the most certain screening methods. Of course what constitutes a desirable chica varies between different guys and I have had what I thought were some real duds or at least only so-so sessions with chicas who were recommended positively by other guys. However, on the flip side, if a chica has reportedly ripped off or shortchanged another guy that might be YMMV too, but I'd have to think long and hard (or think with my little head) before I'd take a chance myself with such a chica. And again it takes someone knowing 1sthand or through others which girls those are and being able to point them out.

There is a music concert coming to Quepos on Saturday Jan 12th.

For more info do a search on Google for - Costa-Bazooka

It is be put on by a well know gringo from the US who has headed up some of the good Rock Concerts in the US.......with major stars and bands.
They are supposed to have at least 10 good bands coming in.

Tickets are reportedly going for $ 15.00 for the all day concert.

I am not sure but this may stretch into a multi-day party.....

There are a couple of nice inexpensive hotels downtown Quepos like the Hotel Malache.....just one block from the bus station in the center of town.
Last time I was there, there rooms were going from $ 15-40.00.....with the cheap rooms with fans only, and the more expensive rooms with AC.

Well of course a fool will reveal to a chica that she is on the web....

However the chica should know she runs the risk of her family finding out about the photos. I never push the photo question, When they say " no", I respect their decision.

Since 1996, I have been to Costa Rica 13 times, understand what is in play, yes the chicas come and go, given......

To each his own.....Not to beat a dead horse but....

1) Maybe the chica SHOULD know she runs the risk of her family finding out about the photos. Again, that is neither here nor there, so let's not debate that point. The point isn't what she should or shouldn't know or what your understanding or personal position on the issue might be. The thing that counts is what she personally believes right or wrong. And there are many chicas who don't stop to think that you might post those photos on the web or that their simply agreeing to letting you take their pictures is tantamount to their authorizing you to also post them anyway you want. And I can say that with certainty because if that weren't the case there wouldn't be so many chicas that get pissed off when they find out or other chicas that grumble about guys posting pictures in general. And whether that anger is justified or not, it is very real and has potential blowback not just on the poster but on any other gringo that wants to take pics.

2) You never push the photo question and, when they say " no" to having their picture taken, you respect their decision. But does your "photo question" include clarifying that you plan to post it on-line and confirming that they are okay with that? IMHO, respecting one limit and ignoring the other is not really fullly respecting their wishes. As I said before, you may think one includes the other, but they may not see it that same way. If you really think they also think that way, then you shouldn't have any problem asking specifically confirming that, since you think you already know the answer. OTOH, if you don't ask because you don't really believe they'll also agree to that, then I would apply your same logic to you. Just as a chica should know when she agrees to have her picture taken by you that she runs the risk of you posting her photo in a place where her family could find out, you should know that when you post a picture of a chica YOU run the risk of some guy letting it get back to that chica. Call the latter blaming the victim if you want but it is the EXACT same reasoning.

3) If you've "only" been to CR 13 times in nearly 12 years, that comes out to only a little more than once per year, meaning it is often as much as 11 months between your visits. I'm sure you know the lay of the land by now in terms of how things work, what sort of things to look for, how to negotiate etc. But I'm also sure that most of the chicas you met from your earlier trips are long gone and even the many of the ones from even a year ago have been replaced with new ones that weren't around back then. So while any fool can learn the lay of the land as you have, only a fool wouldn't realize how that knowledge will only take you so far and even regular CR visitors can gain from guys like Bob is info on what the current deal is with the current crop of chicas. Plus there are a helluva lot more guys who haven't been to CR 13 times over the course of a dozen years, who can use any tips they can get. It always me how clueless many newbies are over their first few trips to CR (and sometimes even beyond that) despite the fact there are enough sites with information to choke a horse that they could have studied from before their trip.

My first trip to Costa Rica, Wow!

Hola, Folks. Before I get into the details. I need to throw out a couple of disclaimers. I’m a new senior member on the USA website run by Jackson. I have not done much mongering internationally. I’m normally a SW and AMP guy. I have been to the Dominican Republic and I did play a little in Macau and Hong Kong. I’m a thirty something African American Male that love Asian women. After a private chat with Prolijo I was convinced to go check out Costa Rica as well as Thailand. My Spanish skills are very weak but I can speak some common Spanish terms that will make me a little dangerous. My biggest thing that I learned was that all of you gave perfect advice on this forum and unfortunately I was a litte hard-headed and did not follow all of the insturctions. So here is my experience which was good for the most part and I hope newbies don’t make the mistakes that I did by not listening to the senior people on the forum:

Day One: Arrival at the Airport. No problems going through customs. The Exit StampTax Lady was on break and did not return until I was about twenty people deep from being called up the customs/entry person. Yes, there was a rush to get to customs. I decided to stay in line despite a couple of the USA stating they would hold my spot. The line was moving quicker because many people were couples or families. I was supposed to meet a girl that I met on Craig’s List. I actually met four people on Craig’s list. More about that later. She was not there but she did have a guy there with a name plate for me. His name was Marco with cab. He was cool but I had to speak mostly in Spanish to communicate with him. He drove very very very fast. $22.00 was my fare. I was at the Hotel Castillo about 40 minutes later. I got in CR around 4PM so there was traffic. Much traffic. My rate at Castillo was $46.00 a night which is discounted for stay at least six days and paying in cash. This was recommended by Prolijo. I told him that I wanted to be close to the action but I wanted to be away from the sounds of the cars, casinos, and people so I can rest and sleep when needed. This was an outstanding recommendation because the Castillo in on 9th behind the huge INS building/Jade Museum and one block from Sportsman Lodge and one block from Club Fantasy. The street is basically quiet other than rush hour traffic. Five blocks from Hotel Zona Blue and about 4 blocks from Del Ray. This hotel was nice I would say a cross between a Motel 8/Motel 6 and a low budget Clarion. Not a hampton or a courtyard but still nice. Nothing significant very basic but did have a community internet computer, piano, bar/restaurant, bar/open patio, breakfast buffett, and tour set-ups. There were a few couples in the hotel but mostly single guys in the hotel. There is no chica fee! I will stay here again. Five member staff, three shift works, one manager, and one swing shift worker. If you needed something ironed, the housekeepers would iron for you. They treated me like I was a VIP or rock star. After checking in, I was greeted by a Tica she wanted to spend time with me with a donation of $100.00 at the Castillo. I told her no I just got there and needed to relax. She gave me a tour of the hotel and continued to rub all over me as if she never saw a black guy dressed up. Her name was Sasha. She had braids and was very dark complexion. I later learn that she works at the Castillo by day and Del Ray by night. I never used her but I ran into another girl named Stephanie. Light complexion spinner and the perfect ass in the low cut jeans and nice slender legs. See picture attached. She wanted me and I wanted her but I had to eat. She told me not to eat at Castillo and took me a restaurant that I truly enjoyed. It was about six blocks away. It was called Café Mundo Bar and Restaurant – the place to appear to have an italian theme. They had the best Sea Bass and Shrimp. During dinner, she and I were petting each other on the legs. It was awesome. We went for one hour and about 15 minutes. I told did not negotiate longer time as all of you on the forum warned me about doing. During my time sucking her breast, I got a shot of milk from her. This was truly a unique experience. It turns out she has a four month that she breast feeds. She has two kids. That was my first night, slow but simple. I did to a recon of Del Ray about 500 AM in the morning and had breakfast at Key Largo there were no Chicas in sight and an angry US Monger that would not give me information on chicas and how the Del Ray place worked at night. Did early breakfast, no one around at the Restaurant next door to Key Largo across the street from Del Rey.

Day Two: I was supposed to meet up with a girl on Craig’s list that advertises herself as a tour guide. I was hoping this was a tour with benefits but it was not. Nice girl who used to live in Colorado but she was strictly business and expensive. I spent a day with her on a professional tour around the city. I went to the museums and walked the streets of San Jose i.e. shopping area and also the flea/sovenir market with her. We also ate. It was cool but again no strings attached and I had to pay for her company. It was okay for me because the streets didn’t have any names on them so she got me oriented pretty well which was basically landmarks and also finding street names on the side of some buildings. I didn’t want to walk the streets alone on my first day and look lost. After that, I returned to the hotel after a full day of shopping. I went to Club Fantasy to check things out. It was nice place with 25 chicas. I could preview and look at each girl before making decision. I was quoted $40.00 US for 1 hour to include sauna, shower, and massage. Given I had a dinner date with a girl on Craig’s list from Alabama that works in Costa Rica I had to come back another day. $40.00 – wow for sex! I met up with my Craig’s list friend who was very busy and she took me to a Peruvian restaurant. We laughed talked and ate food. I also got a tour a night. I came back to the hotel and again friendship with no benefits. I decided to check out Del ray despite having a tour in the morning called the 4 in 1 which turned out to be the 6 in 1. My first trip in the Taxi Cab cost me only 200.00. This was an experience. I was greeted by woman of all sizes and shapes. Some women have breast that were larger than my 36 inch waist and butt cheeks. For some reasons, the Columbian and ticas were all over me. I was approached by some Dominican Republic girls but I was not interested because I had spent time at Blackbeards in DR and I wanted to check out different women. Many girls were aggressive. I must admit some of the hotties will get gobble up by other men if you don’t move quickly. Every girl wanted $100.00 as the senior members stated on the forum. I went over to Key Largo and girl took me by my hand and made me dance with here..trying to teach me salsa and other dancing. It was fun. She wanted me and I was interested but I wanted to do more shopping. She was a little on the thick and dark side. I did meet a girl from Columbia named Juliana at Del Ray. She has two kids. She was passive with me. She had a nice platinum hair friend with her named Sophia that spoke no English probably 4 foot 10 inches. I wanted Sophia but I gave into Juliana because she was so sweet and pleasant to talk to and took her to the hotel with me. She is about a 7-8 but a 10+ in the bed. She rocked my world. She is probably 5 foot 3 inches. 32 A/34A. She did not give me an asking price, but I gave her $80.00 and she also had good English and wanted me to practice English with me and I practiced Spanish with her. We were together for 1 hour and 30 minutes. I had to let her go because of my tour at 630AM in the morning on day 3. Juliana did everything to please and she performed better than the AMPs that I have been to in the USA and even Macau. Because she did so well, I gave her a $20.00 tip. She understood why I upgraded her to $100.00 Again, she treated me well. I probably could have got her for $60 or $70 given I taught her some english and gave her a masasge. She wanted to know what cinturon was in English i.e. Belt and other simple english words.

Day 3: After my tour of coffee bean plantations, waterfalls, poas volcano, etc. I went to Key Largo and Del Ray again at night. Excellent time, I had problems making decisions. I ran into a monger and made friends. This guy K.E. from Hollywood Calfifornia who is in the entertainment industry and has own radio show on XM and other television channels. He gave me a little advice. I was looking at girl named Raina from Costa Rica that spoke perfect English because her father works and lives in Atlanta. I wanted her because she was super tiny. I also was looking at girl name Barbie. I chose Raina. We left and we agreed upon $80.00. This girl was super tiny; however, her love box was big and very loose. No surprise, eh? One thing that pissed me off - she didn’t wanted to shower before we got busy in my bed. After we did the deed, she didn’t shower despite me leaving my leecha all over her breast, face, and legs. This was scary. She used toilet paper and quickly left. She gave me her email but I threw it out. I also noticed she had a rash on her inner thighs perhaps needle marks from drugs? I will not repeat her again. Again, Raina from Costa Rica. See attached picture. My taxi ride this time was $1000 to there and $2000 back. I argued with the taxi cab driver on the way back to the hotel with Raina and got him to agree to $1000.00. I should have took the advice of the forum and said run the freakin meter.

Day Four: Okay another 630 AM tour. This time the beach and some other sites. Got back in the evening. Did a recon of Sportsman Lodge. I was not impressed went over to Del Ray by Taxi and paid this time $300. This taxi cab thing is crazy. I ran into Juliana again, She was rubbing all over me and ask if I could buy her a Red Bull. I did! We talked and I talked to many girls. I was not interested in girls that did not smile or seemed fake. “ You want company, oh, okay, bye” I was more interested in girls that could speak some English and had decent conversation. Many girls were angry at me and would say “why you looking, baby look right here, I’m all you need” I had many cat calls. Grabbing of my jewels and butt as I walked up by the bar. I feel like a piece of meat about to be slaughter at the farm. It was fun. I tried to hook up with Sophia but she wanted Cien. $100.00 her comment was $100.00 and let’s go. I told her no $70.00. she didn’t budge and I did not either. I met a girl named Merna from Panama City, Panama. She rocked! She was good looking and cool to talk to at Del Ray. We went back to my hotel. We agreed upon $70.00 but I upgraded her to $80.00. Her picture is not the best picture. She is very good and her English is also good. She claims no children. She made me pop quickly. She aimed to pleased and would not stop moving her hips. She claimed she had to leave the country in a few hours. Likely lie but I let her go. She was quiet at Del Ray but she was wild in my bed at Castillo. I liked her because she did not roll/hang out with a group of girls. She was operating solo. I noticed many girls walked around in groups of two, three, and four. I would repeat her. I got her email. During this time, I have been told by the front desk at Castillo that Stephanie was looking for me during the past two days. WTF? WTH?

Day Five: Okay last tour which was to Baldi Springs, Grecha Church, and few other sites. Came back and yes, went to Del Ray again. I was hooked on Del Ray. This time, I waited many hours to see all the girls from 11AM – 3AM. I wanted to check out one of the blondes from Columbia but I hesitated. There was a group of three blond columbia girls in nice tight jeans walking around like a pack of wolves. My shyness kicked in! They didn’t give me a look/stare so I didn’t approach them. I sat at the bar at Del Ray on the side near the tables for food and slot machines. Several girls sat down next to me trying to pull me to take them home with me. I ran into Juliana again. She wanted to practice her English with me and she took her cold hands put them underneath my shirt for warmth. I got her coffee at her request. Even though Juliana was all over me, some girls still try to be aggressive and approached me or at least give me that I want to fuck you stare. Since I had no tour the next day, whew! I was thinking muchas horas. After letting a few 10’s slip by due to intimidation or getting picked up by other guys I decided to ask Juliana for long time over night. We agreed to $160.00. We had a long time screwing action back at the Castillo and feel asleep. She was feeling sick in the morning but she gave me massage and we talked a little. She gave me her number in Costa Rica and her email. The second time was even better. I will repeat if I get to see her again. She is no spinner but she is built pretty good. She treated me like I was her man. Again, I never experienced this good loving before. Nothing mechanical. She rocked me again as if I was the last guy on earth. Also, at Del Ray, Many girls kept approaching me about the Black Man bullshit. I want a black man. I like black man. Black men are good. I knew this was bullshit and they wanted my US money because I was dressed nicely. I also pointed out other mongers that were walking by that they should be talking to and again they feed bullshit lines like he’s too heavy or he’s told hold or I have standard when I fuck man. Yeah, right! Well, my night/morning with Juliana was superb. She asked me if I wanted to bring Sophia along too next time. I told her no.

Day Six/Seven:
Well, the people at the desk told me Stephanie wanted to see me before I go. I also learned that Stephanie also likes girls. However, I was not lucky on this day. More to follow. I made it over to Club Fantasy at opening. I looked at all the chicas again. I chose Jimenia from Nicaragua. I thought she was 5’2 but after she took off the boots she was probably 4’9 or 4’10. No English. I had to use my weak Spanish skills. However, she knew why I was there and got me going. I could get a pop but she stayed with me until I gave up and did the hand thing. She did her best and did not stop until I told her. I would repeat her in heartbeat. Jimenia from Nicaragua. We were in room 10. I was amazed on how clean the place and the room were. No more AMPs for me unless it is Rainbow Spa in Toledo, Ohio or Macau where I can get two girls for one. Anyways, my experience at Club Fantasy was perfect. I was treated like a king for only $40.00. I gave her a tip of $10.00. I was not sure what the proper tip was but she seemed very happy with my tip. I could have stayed longer but I rushed because I know Stephanie wanted to see me before I leave and have a late lunch with me. Okay, back to Castillo for a shower and wait on Stephanie. By this time, I was hungry for a lunch. Stephanie and I went to JR Ribs. JR Ribs was okay. The food was better than Applebees but it was no Texas Roadhouse. Before we went to JR Ribs, she gave me a gift. It was an elephant statue made of clay and sand. Unfortunately, it broke during my travel back to US. Wow! I guess I was good for her for her to buy a token for me. She told me she had to get back to her kids in a few hours. She is 19 years old. Twice my age, cool!! So, we spent 2 ½ hours together to include dinner. She did the deed again and I gave her dessert at her request which was CIM and she took it perfectly and sucked me dry. Okay, after some rest and packing to leave, I went back to Key Largo and Delray from 10PM – Until I Found someone. Juliana was there again and came over to me and hugged me. I told her I wanted to check out a blond today or a very tiny person tonight she was cool with that and wanted to help me find that special girl. I told her I would find a chico for her. She didn’t want anyone. She was sick again and probably was going home. She pushed me and wanted me to be happy to find someone. After much thinking and encouragement from Juliana, I decided to go after a girl named Glori from Columbia. Small 5’2 32A/B nice butt and nice face/smile. Her picture sucks that is attached. She had the perfect legs and skin so soft. Note: Stephanie and Raina have hairy bodies i.e. legs and some hair on the back! Glori had no hair and she is someone that I will stay in contact with as well as Juliana by email for future GFEs in Latin America only. I had to rush my time with Gloria because I had a plan to catch 4 hours. She reminded of a chick from Vietnam that I met in Atlanta. Gloria claims no children and is working to support her parents, brothers, and sisters. She will be there for one year. Gloria is 26 Juliana leaves in Feb and hopes she never returns and states she is 24.

Final Comments: I know this post is too much informationl but I just want everybody to understand the forum works if you follow the advice of the senior members on the ISG. The information on this forum is good from Del Ray to taxi cab pricing to massage places to other issues. Also, stay away from the SW – Yes they are Trannies. I would also hope new people going to Costa Rica will learn from some my stubbornness and mistakes. My ATM card only worked at Del Ray and also at the Scotia bank. It did not work at other ATMs. But most of all thank you guys for your information and advice. Next time I will return and I will focus on paying $60.00 not $70 - $80.00 especially after 3AM. I also agree the 7-8s will work on pricing but the 10’s refuse to and usually go home empty. Also, I got an offer from a girl that was a 7 at key largo for $60.00 for three hours and also another girl that said I can go to her place and she will cook for me for $80.00 overnight. I was not interested but maybe next time. Overall, Puda Vida, I will return. BTW: the third and fourth person on Craig’s List never connected with me because of some events going on with them. One person had visit by a boyfriend and other person just told me things got complicated, no worries – no problem. Again, I’m not an expert on mongering internationally or on CR ; I’m just sharing with all of you my lessons learned in CR and my stupidity for not listening to the forum and people like Prolijo. Hopefully, I don’t get emails requresting to send money quickly by Western Union to help sick family members.

Thanks Guys and Happy New Year!

Great report JJJ. That's good information. Thank you. And I'm glad you had a good time.

Go to Thailand if you haven't gone yet. And definitely read up on ISG. The BKK threads are good ones.

WOW! Now that what I call a trip report. I'm going for my first trip to CR At the begining of March and this is great current information. I found really interesting the girl who offered to cook for you at her place and spend the night at her place for $80. Since I'm a big fan of massage parlors Club Fantasy is now on my to do list. I hope I'm not out of line here but is it possible to re-publish the photos? They are a bit on the small side. Thanks again for the great and helpful report!

Hi,

Hows things in SJ at the moment are there many gals around?

Have many return home during the holidays?

I wanna travel there next week before I devote my life to my GF.

Just want the last blast.

Since I'm a big fan of massage parlors Club Fantasy is now on my to do list.Not to be a nitpicker, since I agree that was a great newbie report, but I believe he was referring to a place that is actually called NEW Fantasy. I just thought you should know in case you go looking for someplace called CLUB Fantasy and then wound up not being able to find it. I also agree that his photo posting could use some practice from a purely technical standpoint, but hey we can't expect a newbie to be a complete expert on how to post on the forum.

John, if you can repost larger pictures, it would be great. If you can't we'd understand.

Johnjohnjr. Very nice report. I am a white guy and was lucky to meet a whole group of black guys on my flight who were on their first trip to san jose. Since they had five guys in their group I could over hear the chat about the delray. Needless to say when I was holding more info about the place they were going. I became the man. They were a great group of guys and I showed them some cool places they would of never seen if we didn't hook up. But what was funny is 2 of them fell in love with dr bartenders and I tried my best to get them away from them. But to their credit they both got dates with them. Never really heard if they scored but they got a date. And some of the things you posted about the girls saying "I want a black man and stuff "was some of the same things they told me was happening to them. I wish you would of given the sportmen more of a chance and from the sound of your report you might of liked it better than the hotel you stayed at.

The member that gave you the advice of where to stay has been a great souce of information for me as well. I try to make it down about 4 to 5 times a year and going solo sucks. I have been lucky where I have met someone who lives in san jose and is always ready for me when I get into town (going out everynight)but if you keep posting on this site or the (crt) you will make many friends and having a wingman will be no problem.

I to like the N. F. And the rooms are clean. But on your next trip screw the guided trips you are paying for. Hang out with a few members and you will see the real san jose. Again great post!

JohnJohnJr2000

01-04-08, 03:59

Sure, Prolijo

Since you asked nicely and you gave me advice on CR by email and phone call especially about the Castillo. The Castillo rocks! BTW, why do Tica like Taco Bell..isn't that an insult to fine Mexican/Hispanic Cusine?

Here are the pictures I resized them using the Jackson guidance but I didn't have the time to rotate the pictures given other things I need to do personally here at work and home. Next Stop Lima, Peru in March! Thailand I will hit in July and August with HKG & Macau again.

01-04-08, 06:32

A lot of similarities with JohnJohnJr2000's report so I will try to add to the info rather than repeat.

First off I too stayed at the Castillo for the $46 per night rate, the room was on the smallish side ( room 2 ) but the large shower had me hooked ! The staff at the Castillo was great and I would not hesitate to stay there again. I also found the restaurant next door to be quite good and convenient ( plus the owner was a fellow cheesehead ).

In regards to the Del Ray for a Newbie like me it was quite the sensory overload - a candy store for us adults. Probably was a good thing that my first visit was on Christmas Day, gave me a chance to ease into it. Thanks to this board I knew that they would all be asking for Cien but most would take less, I was able to negotiate with almost all for between $60 - $80 only one would not budge from $100 so I pleasantly declined.

The highlight of my experiences had to be the two colombians I snagged on my fourth day, I had been trying hook up with the one on the right of the picture for a couple of days but it seemed that whenever I saw her she was chatting with someone. Anyway the stars aligned perfectly that day as I had just been playing Blackjack/Rummy and was up about a grand so I decided to take a break and stretch the legs a bit. I ran into her ever present friend and we started chatting, I was a bit disappointed as the friend who I really wanted was not there, but to my pleasant surprise she joined us after a few minutes - must have been in the bathroom. To make a long story short I decided to snag them both for $160 and we headed back to the Castillo for a few hours of pure pleasure - made great use of that big shower too !

Learned a good lesson on the last day too, I was really short on time as I had a 2:15 plane to catch but I wanted one last pop. To my dismay New Fantasy was closed all day ( New Years Eve Day ) so I ended up flagging down a taxi to head down to VIP which we found out was also closed. It was close to noon ( checkout time ) so bring a chica back to the hotel was not an option so after some discussion with the taxi driver in my very limited Spanish and his very limited English I put my trust into his of a Tico massage parlor and off we went. For the life of me I cant remember the name of the place but the cost was $27 for the hour and it was one of the most sensual sessions of the trip. Moral of the story: more $$ does not = a better time, next time I am in SJO I will explore the massage parlor scene in more depth.

hmmm this ran on longer than I planned so I will end it with a picture of the two Colombians from Del Ray. If I could build the ideal chica it would be very similar to the one on the right - a 10 in my book and the highlight of my first CR Trip ( but not my last !!! )

JJJ,

I'm glad to hear that you're going to Thailand, along with HK and Macau, again.

I don't want to hijack this thread with Asia stuff, but since you don't have PM, I'll have to ask here:

Macau: Did you go to 18? What did you think of the Saunas (absolutely blew my mind). A good place to go for a change of scenery is the bar at the Sands Casino (a very Senior Member turned me on to it, thanks again W). They have the best regular entertainment in Macau, and you can pick up hotties, pros, non, and part timers at the bar. I took two cousins home for the night on my last visit.

HK: Did you ever go to Dundas 37 in Mongkok? Great value.

Sorry to the other members for going OT. JJJ PM me if you get it. Loved hearing about your trip and wish you many more.

Hey ArchieLeach,

I do have a decent post on Macau and also one on HKG (I got slammed on the HKG) posting because I guess I got a freebie by mistake and poor commincation. Are you on USA Network run by jackson? We can PM there. If not, I can look at buying Private Message service on the ISG Forum, so we don't waste a lot of time on non-Tica stuff. I did not do the all things you said in Macau but next time, I wil! Let's talk!

JJJ,

They have the best regular entertainment in Macau, and you can pick up hotties, pros, non, and part timers at the bar. I took two cousins home for the night on my last visit.

HK: Did you ever go to Dundas 37 in Mongkok? Great value.

Sorry to the other members for going OT. JJJ PM me if you get it. Loved hearing about your trip and wish you many more.

Just a word of caution to all about the Stephanie pictured in JohnJohnjr's post. She's a con artist and thief. She's a tolerable fuck though she can't usually wait to leave. If you like her just keep your eye on your stuff and don't believe a single word she says. I know her boyfriend has a serious drug problem and I suspect she does too.

LOL! I actually was eyeing two ladies running the bar where all the action was at! I never thought that was an option. I guess every thing is for sale or negotiable in CR. Seriously, I thought one of the girls making the drinks was hot! I will try Sportmen again. I also want to try Zona Blue but every time I rode past in the Red Taxi Cab, it looked like fortress it was locked up tighter than most of the other places in the area. Still getting used to steel bars all over the place it gave me flashblacks of hanging out in the inner city of Detroit i.e. Gas Stations and small mom and pop carryouts or restaurants. Oh, well. Later

Johnjohnjr. Very nice report. I am a white guy and was lucky to meet a whole group of black guys on my flight who were on their first trip to san jose. Since they had five guys in their group I could over hear the chat about the delray. Needless to say when I was holding more info about the place they were going. I became the man. They were a great group of guys and I showed them some cool places they would of never seen if we didn't hook up. But what was funny is 2 of them fell in love with dr bartenders and I tried my best to get them away from them. But to their credit they both got dates with them. Never really heard if they scored but they got a date. And some of the things you posted about the girls saying "I want a black man and stuff "was some of the same things they told me was happening to them. I wish you would of given the sportmen more of a chance and from the sound of your report you might of liked it better than the hotel you stayed at.

The member that gave you the advice of where to stay has been a great souce of information for me as well. I try to make it down about 4 to 5 times a year and going solo sucks. I have been lucky where I have met someone who lives in san jose and is always ready for me when I get into town (going out everynight)but if you keep posting on this site or the (crt) you will make many friends and having a wingman will be no problem.

I to like the N. F. And the rooms are clean. But on your next trip screw the guided trips you are paying for. Hang out with a few members and you will see the real san jose. Again great post!

JJJ, No I'm not on the USA board, I try to limit myself to talk of mongering OUTSIDE the police state we live in.

But I am a Senior Member here and a VIP member at the CRT, which is a Costa Rica only place.

The VIPs at both places are great help. I'd recommend joining up. I'm glad I did.

I look forward to hearing from you.

I've been a member here since 2002. This site IMNSHO is the global authority on mongering.

But other resources serve their purposes and markets, and a few of them do so extremely well.

The highlight of my experiences had to be the two colombians I snagged on my fourth day...To make a long story short I decided to snag them both for $160 and we headed back to the Castillo for a few hours of pure pleasure - made great use of that big shower too!Great report, Diesel! I´m glad you had a good time.

I eyed these same two Colombianas several times on my last two trips, and chatted with them once. I just wasn´t certain how good their service would be so I passed on the chance.

Reading positive things about them in your report is invaluable. The board could certainly use MUCH more of this kind of specific information!

Kudos!

Last two trips, I went by Sportsman's and ran into Anna, of Hotel Park dayshift fame.... so ended up hooking up with her for old times sake. They had a nice selection of girls. Every shape and size were represented. There was a waitress with short brown hair, had the chunky gut from having kids, but was cute in the girl next door way. She also had a nice rack? I couldn't shake free from Anna long enough to talk with her. Does anyone know if she is available also, or does she strictly work as a bar maid? She just looks like a lot of fun. If I don't get any recon on her, I'll check on it myself next time down there and report back.

Happy hunting...

Finally got reservations there for March. Last two times I tried they were full. It's further away from the action than I'm used to (Hotel Presidente), but we'll see how it goes. What is the going rate for the girls at SL? Don't want to turn them into a Blue Marlin mentality by overpaying... my guess would be in the 50-60 range? Anyone with experience there?

Thanks for the info, Lorenzo. I have known Anna for years at the Park Hotel, where she went for 10K, and was happy with a 2-5K tip. I bet she's actually glad the Park shut down... what a raise for her! Lot of these women work the Tico pensiones in the morning/ afternoon for 4-5K a throw... especially funny to do them at a pension and later see them in the Blue Marlin getting $100 for the same thing I paid 10-20!

Happy hunting...

Hi all,

I've been reading this forum for a couple of months now as I have my first trip planned from 3rd to 9th Feb. I'm an experienced monger in Europe, Middle East and Far East but a newbie to Central America so really looking forward to it. As its a new destination for me though I wouldn't mind being wing man for a couple of nights if anyone experienced in SJ is free. I've done my homework RTFF so do have some spots to hit and am staying in Morazan (Castillo didn't have room for the full visit and couldn't be arsed changing)

Anyway, PM me if intersted. You can check out my SP on the Dubai forum for background.

Keep it Cocked,

Mangey Scene,

Pamela is easily the most photographed provider in Costa Rican history. You can find numerous pics of her here in the photo gallery section, tons on CRT, and others on other sites. I even posted a few of her here with Andrea on 7/5/07 (page 8 in the photo gallery). I have sessioned with her on 5 or 6 occasions at Zona Blue -- all doubles -- and she is indeed a sweetheart and one hell of a performer. I'm a little more enamored with Andrea and Karin, but she ranks way up there.

4 days in costa rica

day 1 (monday)

arrive at san jose airport at 3pm. got thru passport control and customs in 10 minutes (i hand carry my bags) exchange some money, off in a taxi to zona blue. i stay at zona blue on my short trips to costa rica. it is great having the action right down stairs.

check-in and in my room by 4:10, quick shower and then downstairs to see the talent at the bar, there 9 girls sitting around with no other customers. i decided to have a few drinks and chat with a few of the girls.

then karin comes in and i call her over and chat for 15 minutes on life since i was last saw her. i take her up to the room for an hour of fun; she is just as good as ever!!!

i head over to the sportsman to pick up my wingman. the talent was not great at the sportsman and we head back over to zona blue. on the way, stop at new fantasy and there was nothing special so we continue to zb. we both decided to go for a session. i took pamela, lorena, and kristina. pamela is still one of the best pse in town and with sister lorena is the best porn team in town. they could f you all day and continues to the next morning if you could last. kristina is a nymph that the energizer bunny has nothing on her! this group of girls could kill you, if you are not ready. it is great fun! if you are ready for a party try this group!

at 9 we hand over to del-rey to see what is happen. the numbers over girls was down from the same time period last year, but there was still a lot talent to be had. we stay there until 10 and head over to pantera rosa (strip club), there were only 5 girls working which were all 5’s and 6’s. we had a drink and headed over to kumar (strip club). there were a few more girls working here, but nothing special, had a drink and left.

then headed over to tango india, 15 girls were working and they ranged from 7’s to 10’s. i like tango india; the only issue is the pricing is almost the same as in the states. the lap dances are cheaper then in the us and there is full service, but you have to be careful on the costs. hook up with one of the hottest girls on my trip, sticky fingers and all, but the house want to much for a room. i got her number for some day time action later in the week. hour and 15 minutes of fun and we were out of there, cost was $71.00 each. worth visiting, just be careful on what you do!

head back to key largo at 12:30, and the place was pack! lots of 5’s to 8’s hanging out with a few hottie’s looking for fun! we found a table and be came a target for the girls to attack. after sending 3 or 4 away, settle on a pair of tica’s. (why do these girls always travel in pairs of one ugly with one hot girl, they need to travel in match sets!) had some drinks with the girls for hour and closed the deal for 30,000c for 2 hours of fun! when back to the room and had a great time! send her on her way a little after 4 am.

day 2 (tuesday)

got up, showered and head downstairs to see who was working the early shift. naomi was down stair waiting for me, pamela told her i was staying at zb. we have been for friends for a few years now and i always bring her something to give to her daughter. we go up to the room for a great 2 hour session. this girl really knows how to give a true gfe. if every girl was this good, we all would be married to our first girl friend!

noon my wingman knocks on the door after he moved into one of the other rooms at zb. we head up to the sportsman for lunch. after lunch, we head over to new fantasy and again nothing special. so we go back to zb. i hook up with one of the new girls at zb for a 1 hour, great massage, but otherwise nothing special. i can not remember her name.

we decided to walk around to some of the smaller daytime places around town (tica places). we check out 5 of these places, the girls range from 4’s to 6’s at all these places, the price is cheap, but the quality was low too! we headed over to the pirate club at 5 and it was close. this place was open at 3pm last summer, but not now.

we then went to tin-ho chinese restaurant for dinner. this place always has great food! after dinner head to idems, across the street. 12 girls and most of them look like they had bolt-ons. if you are a breast man a great place to go, but nothing we were looking for!

we headed back over to zb and i hook-up with andrea and mille. both of these girls have great body and attitudes. if you can get these 2 girls together for a session, it is a must do! andrea is book very heavy everyday and mille is available most of the time and i do not know why, because is has one of the hottest bodies at zb. both girls speak great english.

my wingman hookup with a girl that wanted to go out and party in a local club area that night, we said why not. i maybe spelling this wrong, the name was el-pablo. it was a club area with about 8 or 10 bar/clubs. the crowd was in general 20 something’s. there were a lot of hot girls here, but not a place to go solo. it would be a must to have a wingman at minimum and possibly a few girls. there were a lot of the girls from the gringo mp in town hanging out here with there boyfriends and girlfriends. the crowd had mixed feeling with gringos. we got a table in the vip area upstairs with a purchase of a bottle, which was 23,000 c with mixers. call a few girls upstairs and few stop by, a lot of semi-pro and pro girls looking for fun. we stay here for 3 hours, had a great time, but we start to feel the drinks, not a place to get drunk as a gringo and the girls want to party to morning.

we headed back to the del-rey and pickup a couple of girls for a night of fun back in the room.

day 3 (wednesday)

got up, had another round with the girl from the night before and sent her home. then walked up to the del-rey restaurant for some to eat. head back to zb and hook up with naomi and had her pick another girl that gives a great massage. when up to the room for a great 2 hour massage with lots of extras.

wingman and i decided it was time for lunch. before heading over to the sportsman for lunch, we decided to call the 2 girls we met at tango india monday night and see if they wanted to go out for lunch. they said yes and we could meet them at 3 pm at the sportsman. we head over there and the girls show up 30 minutes late (tica time). have a great lunch with them and head back to the room with them for 2 plus hours of fun for $80. it was a great time, the girls did not going into zb, once they knew what the places was, but once in the room, there was no issues. this girl was hot!!! in looks, body, skills and spoke great english. if you were going to marry a girl from this world we play in, she would be the one. she asked me not to past on pictures or her name, so please do not ask. she head out at a little before 8 for work.

me and wingman decided to walk-up to the del-rey and see what was happen. the place was packed. it was almost like a few years ago. 3 to 4 girls for each guy. we stay around here until 10 pm talking and playing with the girls. we then headed over to a strip club name alsacar; it was about a 5 minute taxi ride from del-rey. it is a local strip club, smaller, but very clean. the staff is very friendly and there was 17 girls working. 6 of them spoke good english. it is not a rip-off place. the staff double check with you on anything you order and the keep a copy of the run tap for you at the table so you able are able check where you are at, at all times. beer is 1800c, girl drinks 4500c (tell them to drink at your pace and they do), 3 song lap dance 6000c, and hour in a private room is $61.00 plus deal with between you and the girl (between $50 and $80). we hang-out here for a few hours, each vip a girl and had a great time. great place to check out.

after the strip club, decided to head back to the room for a good night of rest!

day 4 (thursday)

walk over to the del-rey early for some thing to eat. after that, walked back to zb, for some early morning fun! pickup suzy and lucy for 2 hours, they give a great massage and extras. suzy is a great girl and does not fit into the job she is doing. she is one of these girls that need to get out of this profession as soon as possible before she is not a keeper. this girl is a sweetheart! if you are looking for a girl that is sweet and provides great service all the way around, suzy is the girl! 8 in looks, 10+ in service!

we head over to the sportsman for lunch. stop in at new fantasy again and again nothing special!

head back over to zb. since it is my last day, it is full speed a head! connect with pamela again and tell her, i want a great party with her and 2 other girls. she picks out two other girls. both girls have only been working for a few weeks and both 18. went up to the room pamela had her way both of the girls, the one girl had not experience pamela prior to this. it was a great time! next time, i am in town going to take pamela to a strip club, it should be a wild time! pamela and stripper, just think!

after that i order some pizza from pizza hut and had them delivery to the bar a zb. had pizza dinner at the bar with the girls.

after dinner, connect with andrea and mille for my last session at zb on the trip. it actually was better then the first. these girls have every hot bodies!!!

then head back over to alsacar for a few more hours of fun. this reminds me a lot of the kumar a few years ago, when the kumar was fun. alsacar is smaller and cleaner, but just as much fun a kumar back then.

at 1am head over to del-rey and the crowd was smaller then wednesday but better then the beginning of the week. pick up a hot columbian for a few hours of fun!

Gentleman,
I friend of mine is going to be exhibiting at a Trade Show in San Jose the end of this month.
He does not speak Spanish very well. He needs someone to work with him in his booth who speaks Spanish and English to help him translate any questions he may get at his booth.

He is lookng for a good looking girl who will help draw some people to his booth.

Does anyone know anyone who could help him?

He will pay this girl. The show is late morning to early evening the last week of Feb.

Thanks for your help.

4 days in Costa Rica I took Pamela, Lorena, and Kristina. Pamela is still one of the best PSE in town and with sister Lorena is the best porn team in town. They could F you all day and continues to the next morning if you could last.

I agree wholeheartedly about Pamela and Lorena in that they are a great, fantastic, tops, full on sex machines, however there are many more in and around the bars, nightclubs, streets and MP's in San Jose.

It has been reported here and on the CRT site that they are the only show in town but it is not true. There is hope for the non ZB crowd

It may take more time than the typical vacationer can afford thus you may have to settle for the ZB gals but given the effort you'll surely find many nasty, nasty girls working in the many venues around the city.

Just as Jim did by bringing the girls back from Tango India..takes time but there are many opportunities awaiting

After all it is their work!

Wow. Great trip and great report. Which hotel would you recommend: Del Rey or Zona Blue. Sounds like they are in walking distance. Did I understand you correctly that if you stay at Zona Blue the rate for the ladies is $20 per hour? I looked at their website but did not find any rates on the rooms or anything else. I will look further.

They are within walking distance of each other, about 7 blocks from each other. I just would not walk it after 10 at night.

They are $20.00 a hour if you are staying at Hotel Zona Blue. The room are $195.00 a night, then you get the girls for $20. Otherwise they are $48.00 a hour.

The last place in town I would stay is Del-Rey. The room are fair and the girl love to race track you, if you are staying a the Del-Rey. They want to get you upstair and try to get back downstairs as fast as possible.

If you are into MP and the cost is not a issue, I would stay at ZB. Otherwise I would stay at the Sportsman.

That was written in November. We're still waiting, Tox...
DBTGAM DB, that could because:
a) He is still trying to find that ONE girl Maria, who is no longer even in the business, and so is still a virgin.
b) He actually found Maria and in so doing found God. He doesn't monger anymore but they do attend church together regularly.
c) He called the number I gave him for WorldVision (the leaders of the crusade against sex tourism, a fact I conveniently omitted from my advice to him), where I said Maria was now working and they reported him to the authorities as a sexual pervert.
d) The pilot that Maria was scamming finally wised up and has been replaced by our pal Otoxin who is now sending her over a thousand bucks per month so "she won't have to work in the HDR" (or date guys like you or me, yeah right). They plan to be married in 2 months. She plans to be divorced with a nice alimony settlement and green card in 2 years.
e) He is still checking out this site and deciding whether to join
f) He finally got our message that he was acting like an unbelievable putz and stopped coming around this site due to all the unbearable shame.
g) He is just as much of a putz as ever and is continuing to lurk and bide his time until he can spring one of his inane questions on us again (without ever contributing anything of his own) in the hopes that some other senior member will have forgotten about him and try to help him out.

Take your pick.

BTW, how in hell's name did you even remember about this episode from nearly 3 months ago? Did you mark it down in your calender for follow-up or something? Talk about holding a grudge. Besides, aren't you having enough of a hassle with Roundtrip on the other forum. Please remind me never to get on your bad side. :) I'm probably the last person who should give this advice, since I've been just as guilty of it myself, but sometimes you just need to let some things go.

During my first trip to Costa Rica in the summer of 2006, I made the obligatory pilgramage to the Blue Marlin. I had just gotten off the plane and hadn´t even changed, but it was purely reconnaissance on my part that Saturday night. Out the mosh pit that is the BM bar I spotten the unicorn. She was about 5´4", lightened brown hair, and had on a top with a diamond shaped cut out that showed off some nice cleavage. She looked the like Vivid Girl porn actress, Kira Kenner, who supposedly is part Asian.

I introduced myself, but she was all business about going to the room. Wouldn´t even accept a drink. I stepped back to the far side of the room, had a couple of drinks and watched her. She didn´t get any business so when I went back to her and asked for her number and her price for a TLN, she gave me her number but said it was cien por hora and she doesn´t do TLN. The best I could get was $$$$ por cuatro horas.

We hooked up the next night, but made the mistake of meeting her in the lobby like a lost friend, instead of waiting for her in the bar and then doubling back to the room. It was $20 or $50 mistake since I was staying at the Sol Malia hotel (very upscale but over rated) and I had to register her. Shame, cause I should have taken the opportunity to see her cedula.

She claimed to be NIcaraguan, living with her mom, attending the best university in San Jose, that her father was Korean. The Korean part would explain the exotic look of her face. The surgery explained how, when she took off her bra, her breasts seemed to get even bigger. Beautiful D cups, just like Kira Kenner.

Wish I could have taken pictures, cause she really had porn star looks. The performance was strickly clock-watcher, however. CBJ, interrupting my strokes every two minutes to check the condom. If she wasn´t so hot looking it wouldn´t be memorable.

Anybody know if she is still active? PM me.

Hi,

I will be in SJ on March 2 and it will be my first time in Latin America. Previously, I'd mongered in Asia without any problems as I am Asian. Will I encounter any difficulty with the ticas being Asian and also not knowing any Spanish?

Also, from reading here and the guide books in regard to personal safety and theft, just how safe is it for someone carrying valuable photographic equipment? Of course I won't be flaunting it but I will need to take it out of the bag when shooting sights of interest (not working ticas). I imagine it would be quite safe in the tourist areas during the day where there are people about but what about the early evening?

Thanks
I don't see why being Asian would be a problem. Not knowing Spanish might be somewhat of a problem, but you'll probably get by. At least learn the numbers from 1 to 100 so you can negotiate prices.

IMHO I think you would be taking a risk carrying around valuable photographic equipment. Why not bring just a simple point and shoot? There isn't much worth photographing in SJ anyway, except the chicas of course. :)

LI have traveled to San Jose with a Japanese friend and he did not encounter any problems. He does not speak any Spanish. The locals did refer to him as "chino", but it was not meant in a demeaning way. In some Latin American countries people will refer to you based on your appearance. I am African American and i was referred to as,"Negro". I also noticed that some biracial women at the Del Rey were called, "Morena". There is a small community of Chinese and filipino locals in San Jose. You will also notice many chinese in most of the casinos.

I would definitely be careful with the equipment and stay in the tourist area if you are going to have your equipment with you.

Please remember this Spanish phrase: No Cien!

Cien=100. The Chicas will quote $100 for their services. Most of all have fun!

Why do you rate Karin a 10? If she's better than Pamela, I may not come back. Any hotels in Quepos that you can recommend?

I have been informed that since being booted off of Margarita Island, Total Satisfaction has opened in Boca Chica, DR and Costa Rica. Does anyone know where in Costa Rica they are located and have a report ?

Hey Dudes (and probably a few perverted women),

This is my first field report but I did have one past submission in the "Viagara" thread about my online pharmaceutical purchasing experience. As I promised in that particular report, I will field test my boner pills in Costa Rica, a thread I have meticulously researched by RTFF.

First impression, the airport seemed modern but everywhere between there and the Hotel Castillo seemed rundown and third world. They really should build some sidewalks and clean the place up a bit. It is pretty sad when one of the first things you see at the airport are signs warning you about child prostitution. The real estate ads were next. This must be a place for the gringo dollar to exploit cheap land. The cab ride to the Amon district was $19 and my driver Gabriel was a friendly young guy. Check in was easy (I. E. All English) and after unpacking, I decided to not waste time and hit some places that were just right down the street from the Castillo.

Zona Bleu was easy to find. All the reports I have read about this place have been extremely positive. However, upon close personal inspection, I have to digress from the popular opinion of this place. True, the girls here were all young (some may have been too young) and beautiful but I found out that none of them do BBBJ. That to me is an automatic deal breaker. This guy I spoke with in their very small bar area told me that CBJ was SOP. Doesn't that just S-U-C-K (and not in the good way)! Mr. Miami has been coming here for years so I guess I could trust him. This was also verified by a really large chested Tica I spoke with while I stared at her chest the whole time. Hey, this is a brothel and that sort of behavior is not rude here. Getting over my disappointment, I spent most of my hour there talking with Mr. Miami about the P4P scene in South Florida and I told him about the scene in Southern California. We actually debated about the costs of travelling to foreign lands for P4P as opposed to staying at home and helping the local economy. There really is a great Powerpoint presentation about the cost-benefit of our hobby. I might actually stay awake through that show.

Mr. Miami said he was going to check out the day scene at the Marlin so he left, leaving me to check out the local color in ZB. A couple more chicas confirmed the CBJ policy and that was enough to push me out the door. Luckily, the New Fantasy club was just a short walk down 9th street. Wouldn't you know it, I run in to Mr. Miami again in their fish bowl room. Immediately, a bosom blessed young thing caught my eye. Carol looked around 20 but her boobs were probably twice that number. Shazam! I paid for an hour and really got my money's worth. For an extra propina, I got my BBBJ. This girl was fantastic and a true GFE. This was the right way to start a vacation. I love this country already.

After New Fantasy, I managed to walk the 40 feet to the Gardens restaurant next to the Hotel Castillo. There dinner portions were small and the service was pretty slow, but I was in no hurry. It gave me plenty of time to reflect about my experience with Carol at NF. I love bouncy women, as long as they are not heavy enough to crush me. Normally, this would be where I would call it a night but since I had my performance enhancers with me, I felt it was time for me to explore more of this city.

It is not a long walk to the IDEM club and I did walk past the very busy Del Rey area. First however, I was still a little hungry because the meal at the Gardens restaurant was a bit too light. This bakery called Muss Ani on the shopping promenade had some hearty pastries that really hit the spot. Idem turned out to be much more run down than the first two "high-end" places I have already visited today. I was not getting a really good vibe from this place. A very pretty girl with an ample chest sat next to me and after some nice chit chat, I was sold. She escorted me to a room on the first floor but told me that it would be cheaper upstairs. So, off we went to the second floor. I was about to give her money for 1 hour but then she told me she needed more for condoms. WTF? What sort of chicken sh*t is this? Paying for condoms! ? ! I told her nicely that the deal was off and I left Idem.

A night club was next on my list so I checked my personalized map and saw that Arcadas was not too far away. But, man, you had to walk through some rundown neighborhoods. I was about to walk in to the front door of the Arcadas club when a bouncer stopped me from behind and pointed to the sign about the admission fee. It was nominal. This club was dark and not exactly welcoming of gringos but after a cursory look at the girls, I knew this was the place. I swallowed my first half tab (50 mg.) of generic Viagara, called Kamagra. While nursing my Fanta and letting the pill go to work, I checked out the wares. Two dark lovelies were looking at me. Oh yeah, threesome time! They didn't know much English but it did not matter because my Spanish is passable. Joheida and Erica were both from the DR. Erica had the great cans while Joheidi had the gorgeous face. It's go time! We all went upstairs to a grungy looking room and I paid the gringo rate I am sure. I did not know if the pill was working because I really did not need it with these two beauties on top of me; but after more than a half an hour, I knew this pill was doing its job. Even though it was CBJ, I had an awesome time with these ladies. In fact, after about 40 minutes of intense shake and bake, I was still rock hard. These girls might have been a little exasperated because all their tremendous effort didn't get the "leche" from me. I wasn't complaining because I was enjoying this too much. All the switching off and beautiful naked skin sliding all around the place, this must be heaven, but in a more scuzzy environment. Just about when my time was up, I fully unloaded. It was amazing. I walked back to the Castillo a very happy man.

Cbj Policy. That is also a deal breaker for me. Is that just Zona Blue. What about the girls at Delrey. Do the girls speak enough English to understand.

In case you haven't figured it out. My first trip in EXACTLY One Month.

Sir Real - Thanks for the interesting read. I'm glad you had a good time. I would like to comment on a few of your experiences:

The chicas at ZB for the most part will do bbbj if you mention propina. So many guys stiff them and don't leave a tip when they deserve one that this is just a ploy to get an extra $10+ from you. Some won't do it for anything and some will do it for nothing. Just speak to more girls. When you get to Pamela or Karen or Andrea or Lorena or Kati or.......you'll get what you want.

BBBJ in the HDR(Hotel Del Rey) is available but you will ask several girls before you find one. Sometimes you will get lucky fast, sometimes not.

Idem always charges $1 for condom so bring your own. It was very nice of the chica to tell you that rooms upstairs are cheaper. Room #1 has a shower. Always negotiate for time there otherwise after 1 pop, chica might get dressed.

You can get that cabfare from SJO down to $6 with Interbus. You will wait from a few minutes to 30 minutes for other passengers but I hate those F'ing taxistas so I wait.

DO NOT WALK AROUND THOSE AREAS AT NIGHT! Also, on weekends when those streets are quiet. The area around the HDR has seen more murders, muggings, and police shakedowns than you would believe. The policia are NOT your friend there. You have as much chance of them getting your money as the other POS in CR.

Just so everyone knows, I am writing these reports from the comfort of the good ol' U S of A, using notes and my own un-alcohol impeded memory of an incredible week I spent in Costa Rica. All 7 days, I did walk around San Jose, even late at night, and the worst experiences that happened to me were being propositioned by tranny SW's in the park and the street corners. This was more comical than menacing. Another time, an old hag SW flashed me and yelled at me from across the street but all she wanted was a little business. These are hardly dangerous situations. However, in retrospect, I also would not recommend walking alone through town. I can still smell all that bird crap from underneath those trees in the park north of the Del Rey.

After my amazing first day in San Jose, I started my second day by getting up at 5:30 AM to go river rafting down the Pacuare, one of the world's renowned whitewater experiences. I know this is a sex forum but one cannot be fixated by that subject 24/7. If you are that addicted, may I suggest some professional help. Actually, my philosophy is that some day time adrenaline can only help your night time activities. Disappointingly, the river was a little low due to it being the dry season so the rapids were not that scary. However, it was still a great time and I would really love to do it again when there is high water.

Now on to why we are here. Getting back to San Jose after a 3 hour bus ride (there are going to be a lot of these the next few days), I wanted to try out my other boner pill in my hotel room. The generic Cialis I bought arrived from and was manufactured in India. I have never tried foreign pharmaceuticals before so I am hoping their quality control is up to snuff. I took a 20 mg. Pill of generic C and bit it in half, which was easy to do because it was a gel tab, as opposed to the hard V pill which cracks haphazardly when bitten in half. The taste of the C had a really nice citrus flavor and I let it dissolve under my tongue for faster absorption. You do this with a V pill and all you get is a bitter taste in your mouth and a blue tongue, but, oh, do you get great benefits.

I walked through the downtown shopping area and found Illusiones quite easily. It was kind of run down looking and only 2 ladies were available. They weren't exactly lookers but that was not what I came (and will come) for. I have RTFF. "Yoasca" was a young, dark Tica with a stout body but what won me over was her smile and a friendly "I will please you" demeanor. My instincts were right. After paying a small fee for an hour, she led me to a very grungy room with a hard, shabby bed. She was everything I thought she would be, I. E. , GFE all the way. For a small propina, she did BBBJ enthusiastically and competently. Allowing for two pops, after just 20 minutes she used her ample breasts and let me give her a pearl necklace a Tahitian jewelry salesman would envy. We hit the shower together and not too long afterwards, she had the cleanest and shiniest boobs in Central America. When it was back to the bed, I could really feel the generic Cialis kick in to high gear in a matter of seconds. Thank you India! Another 20 minutes of the old in-out and I finished with a COF. I gave her another propina for her exemplary service.

All that hard sex work has made me famished so I walked towards the BM looking for a place to eat. I stopped in a diner called the La Flor restaurant near the Del Rey. The food was cheap and passable (if a bit on the low end side) but noone there spoke English. The whole time I ate I was thinking about all the things written about the famous, world renowned Del Rey in TFF. This was one of the reasons for coming down here to Costa Rica.

It was around 10 PM when I walked through the door of the Blue Marlin. Outside was a hornets nest of activity with Cabbies and a few shadowy figures. Inside was a crowded, smoky, and noisy conflagration of old white men and young Latin women. There were some young guys but we were way outnumbered. Plus, all the other young dudes were frat boy types or surfer dudes that I do not associate with back at home. I felt alienated, so why not pick out a nice girl and change things. This was when it got more depressing. Every single girl I spoke to seemed to have dollar signs in their eyes and they seemed like they were either sizing me up as a sucker or as an ATM machine. The word "mechanical" kept popping in to my head. Most of these ladies appeared to be Colombian. After about a half hour of hunting, I gave up and left. Even though, all the BM girls I spoke to were gorgeous, I did not think any of them could give me as good a time as I had with "Yoasca" at Illusiones. Why end the day on a sour note? So, I just walked back to the Castillo alone, but after having a little verbal fun with the tranny hookers in the park.

You might say "sin ule" (without rubber, pron. "seen oole") for bbj

"te la pasas" (will you swallow) for cim

If she says no, you might want to say "cuanto, pues" (how much, then)

If she still says no, then it's no

Buena suerte

This day started with a "5 in 1" tour, and frankly, it was not all that great. The Poas volcano was obscured by mist and the coffee farm, jungle walk, and Sarapiqui river cruise were all uneventful. The waterfall was cool but anyone can see it because it is on the side of a public road. The one saving grace about this tour was all the single women on it. In our van, there was one couple, me, and six single women. Most guys would like these odds. If you are so inclined, a tour like this is a great place to pickup regular women.

Back in San Jose, I read the generic C instructions and it turns out this stuff is supposed to last a few days. Time to field test a pill I took yesterday. Krysis was just a short walk from the Castillo. This MP was decorated in an ancient Roman style but still maintained a certain 3rd World decrepitude. Looking over the selection, I chose Andrea for her heaving chichis and a peculiar, antiquated Mary Tyler Moore type of hairdo. When will I learn never to trust appearances? This Colombiana was a real drag, I. E. , she would not do BBBJ. Normally, I can overcome this if her performance excelled, but sadly it did not. Calling her mechanical would be an understatement. So far, Andrea is the worst performer I have witnessed in Costa Rica, but the night is still young.

Walking east from Krysis, I found a hotel restaurant called El Oasis. The food, service, and ambiance was superb and it made me totally forget the disappointing time I just had with Andrea. Has anyone noticed how much better soda pop tastes outside of the U. S? By using real cane sugar instead of high fructose corn syrup, Coke, Fanta, 7 UP, and all the other soft drinks are so much better. It also better for your health from what I have read. When the check came, I was surprised how low it was. El Oasis restaurant is definitely recommended.

The Eros rooms have been getting some good reviews, so I figured I cannot go wrong by going there. Ah, but the best laid plans of mice and men! Raquel, who was tattooed, about 30, and looked like she had bolt ons (which I am no big fan of), was the only one working there so I had no other choice. I suppose I could have walked out the door but I decided to stick with her, figuring it could not be as bad as Andrea from Krysis earlier tonight. I was wrong again. It was just one of those days. She refused to do BBBJ (even for extra) and instead lectured me about STD's. Just what I wanted! Her English was excellent but that was not why I was here. Besides the lecture, she also spoke quite a bit about her child. WTF? If she spoke about her absent father and abusive past, she would have hit the mood-killing trifecta. Luckily it did not get that far. It also did not change the fact that this session was incredibly lame. Thanks to the generic C, it was easy for me to get and maintain my hardness even under these trying circumstances, but without it I am sure I would not have had the energy. As it was, I did not climax in my full hour (no thanks to Raquel), even when I had to take matters in to my own hand. Avoid Raquel at the Eros Rooms. For the second night in a row, I walk back to the Castillo alone and unsatisfied. I was just glad this day was over.

BBBJ = sexo oral sin condon
swallow = con deglucion

Accent on final syllable in both cases. (My keyboard won't type accent marks.)You don't need a special keyboard. If you type a lot of spanish, as many of us Latin America travelers do, there are a few fairly easy things to do.

First, you can set it up fairly quickly from your Control Panel>Regional and Language Options>Keyboards and Languages tab. Once you've done that either an EN or ES will appear on your task bar (lower right near the clock). Thereafter, all you will need to do to switch is to click on that EN or ES. This is also good to know for those of us who have run into incomprehensible keyboards at internet cafes in the course of our travels.

Second, keep an ascii character code list handy and then whenever you need an accented letter or any other special character just look it up then type out the 4 digit code while holding down the ALT key.

Thirdly, you can use the Character Map. You can find this under All Programs>Accessories>System Tools. Again, if this is something you use a lot you might want to copy a shortcut for it to your desktop.

But this hardly answers the original question. Rather than use the word "deglucíon", which is probably hard enough for most gringo guys just to pronounce let alone spell (they'll sound real smooth stumbling over that word), I suggest they just stick with the simpler ¿traga mì leche? I think "tragar" may actually be more similar to the verb "beber" which means "to drink" but, believe me, no puta is going to think you're asking them if they want to drink some milk. :)

If you tell them that (con deglución), they will think that you are still talking in your native language. In all my 50+ years, I never heard anybody using that word. Swallow is tragar.

That was funny! I am dying laughing here. Rebelmonger is absolutely right, tragar is a much better term for this, which I might add, can be used as the act is about to be performed. I have found that suggesting it at the last moment, in the heat of the moment, will yield much better results. In my judgement, it is a mistake to request this during negotiations.

They will also understand what you mean if you use tomar or tomala.

Tragar is a verb meaning "to swallow." What I was providing is a noun referring to the act of swallowing, which would be "deglucion," although you could also say "tragando." There are many ways to get your meaning across; hell, you could just make a gulping sound.

Remember that there are a lot of regional variations in Spanish. For example, I am told that in Mexican slang "cosita" means "pussy," but girls I have talked to in CA are unfamiliar with that term.

I forgot to say that Spanish is my first language, I started to learn English when I was 26. Deglucion is not slang, but something that you might hear in medical school.

I think "tragar" may actually be more similar to the verb "beber" which means "to drink" but, believe me, no puta is going to think you're asking them if they want to drink some milk. :)I frequently type in Español: All I need is to SIMULTANEOUS press the "Alt" key along with the RIGHT-sided numerical board ( the numbers above the letters on the keyboard don't work)...so:
Alt 164 is ñ
Alt Ñ
Alt 168 becomes ¿
Alt 160 is á
Alt 161 í
Alt 162 ó
Alt 163 ú
Alt 130 é
Alt 131 â
Alt 132 ä
Alt 133 à ....and on and on...

Play around with the "Alt" key and numerical combinations and you'll find special characters for French, German, Portuguese, Swedish, music characters, playing cards (my most used is "Alt" 3 which becomes ♥ a small black heart...God, has this little heart got me laid! ;)

For those of you who are offended that I was not able to put an accent on the last "e" of San Jose, I apologize. One can learn a lot of things by RTFF but I never thought learning keyboarding Spanish diacritical (? ) marks would be one of them. Now, it is time for me to give back.

Anyways, Day 4 started with the greatest tour Costa Rica has to offer, which is ironic because this was the tour I was looking least forward to taking. It was actually a last minute tour change because the Sarapiqui river rapids were too low. However, that was a blessing in disguise because the San Lorenzo Canopy Zip Lining tour was the best tour I took all week. It is great fun flying through those forests (one cable line was nearly a half mile long) and I would recommend this tour to anyone who visits C. R.

Once back in San Jose, I swallowed the second half of my generic Cialis geltab and thought I would try La Mansion, just down the street from Idem and located across the street from the SW side of the park. You cannot miss that garish pink neon sign. This was definitely a locals club and the talent here were far from high end, but if local flavor is what you crave then this is the place. The only girl who knew English was Paola, a Colombiana around 25, and she showed me around the C grade rooms. She seemed friendly enough so I chose her instead of the other very young (high school age? ) girls. I was very happy with my choice as Paola was an incredible GFE. Thanks to the C, my D enjoyed her BBBJ and wet P for nearly an hour, culminating in an ecstatic O. BTW, La Mansion closes early so try to get there before 8.

I walked alone back uptown and past a lot of fried chicken places. Ticos love that stuff, I guess. There are plenty of KFC's in S. J. I stopped in a Taco place on 3rd called "Taco Voy" and when the guy took my order in Spanish, he knew I was from the West Coast. The young owner turned out to be a New Yorker trying to start a franchise in C. R. Their burrito was excellent, the price was very good, and the service was friendly. I wished him the best of luck.

Before heading to the Sportsmen's Lodge, I stopped in to an AM/PM Market for a slushee. This was in the museum district and there were all these goth kids hanging around on a Saturday night. There were also some Beavis and Butthead types too. This wasn't a 7-11 but I am still glad to see that some things are universal, I. E. , loitering teens at convenience stores. Costa Rican goths? What is that all about? I guess these are the sort of things you can see when you travel.

Sportsmen's Lodge is just up the street from the Castillo and it is a pretty nice place. It certainly is much more quiet and much less congested than the Del Rey. The first impression you get of the place will be getting a once over from the armed (9 MM? ) guards working the gate. That is not exactly a reassuring sign. Why do they need the heavy artillery? This neighborhood was the nicest I have seen in S. J. Once inside, it was just like the Del Rey. There were the old white guys and young Latin girls, but much less crowded. I spoke with a few of the ladies but it was just like the DR all over again. I do not think any of them would give me the awesome experience Paola gave me earlier in the evening at La Mansion. Sadly, I just walked back to the Castillo, alone again.

I forgot to say that Spanish is my first language, I started to learn English when I was 26. Deglucion is not slang, but something that you might hear in medical school.
Actually, I learned the word in a Spanish course for health care professionals and had much occasion to use it professionally. So you are right on the mark. I guess "tragando" is better for everyday use.

After spending all day at the crowded (it was a Sunday) and overrated Quepos and Manuel Antonio Park areas, we did not get back to S. J. Until it was past 10. I still had that generic C in my system so I had time to do some meat shopping.

Malino Rojo is a club just down the street from Arcadas and it is a very Tico club. There is no sign in the front of the place but you can't miss it because the exterior is lit up like it was a night club. Those of you looking for high end decor and a bright, clean atmosphere would not like this establishment. There was a stage but no stripper and there were plenty of customers but the energy level was kind of dead. I chalked it up to it being a typical Sunday night. The first chica to catch my eye was a little spinner (not usually my first choice) with short hair standing by herself. In the darkness of the room, "Medea" looked young and she had a friendly personality. I liked her right away so it was off to the back we go. Once inside our grungy room, the first thing I did was stomp on a cockroach skittering across the floor. The buzz of the florescent lights gave the room an eerie ambiance, not to mention the decrepit condition of the bed, the window, and the wall paint. This was a joyless environment. Luckily, Medea and I supplied our own joy, and a lot of it too. The BBBJ was excellent but when it was time for the CG, I noticed how loose she was, even for such a little woman. After more than a half hour of action, she kind of noticed my inability to climax and I did not want to tell her how loose she was down there. After a brief conversation, I found out that she was 42 (? ! ) and she has had six children. I am not exactly a small guy but even I could not really get a good grip. Like a trooper, Medea suggested the culito and I happily obliged. Isn't she great? Not much longer, I had a magnificent climax. I tipped her nicely because she deserved it. I walked back to Castillo with a very big smile on my face.

¿(voluntad tú) traga mi leche? = (will you) swallow my cum?

¿sexo oral con tragando? = oral sex with swallowing?

¿sexo oral con deglucion? = oral sex with ingesting?

I suppose they could all work, at least when spoken in context, but I think I'll still stick with my first choice. These are uneducated hookers we're dealing with here, not MD's. And I'm hoping to have sex with them, not conduct a medical exam. What would you say next?

¿copulemos vaginalmente? = Shall we copulate vaginally?

I don't think so.

BTW, "tomar" normally means "to take" so I don't see how that might apply at all to this situation, but maybe Macrino is familiar with some local vernacular that I'm not.

Sir real,

I enjoy your reports but you are extremely foolish walking everywhere late at night. It is a miracle you have not been robbed already.

Your next report may start with " I was walking home from a bad area late at night when suddenly a gun was in my face"

I have to say, as someone who has done more than his share of walking after dark around SJ, that walking all the way back from VIPS Molino Rojo to the Castillo at the time of night you must have done it is something I would definitely NOT recommend. And reviewing you recent posts, I see that this was actually not the first night you did that. Frankly, I'd have thought you'd have learned the first time after seeing the neighborhood Arcadas and Molino are in. It does not surprise me that you managed to get back to your hotel safely those 2 times, but you were really pushing your luck.

First of all, this is not like taking a cab from the BM to the Presidente. What you did was a pretty decent distance no matter what time of day it is. Add the night factor and it would definitely be well worth it to spend the lousy buck or two to get a ride home. Secondly, even if you wanted to walk as much for the fresh night air as to save the dollar, there are much safer areas to walk through then the ones between Molino and the Gulch (particularly around Parque Central) and the area on the other side of the Gulch going towards the Castillo is no great shakes late at night either. I agree with your earlier assessment that the trannies are more a joke than a real threat but you still don't want to let them get too close because they've been known to swarm a guy, feeling him up under the pretense of trying to hustle a date while the other TV's pick the poor sucker's pockets.

Aside from that I think your descriptions of Molino (and Arcadas, the BM and other places) really captured their essence. There actually is a sign for Molino that is located on the corner by the intersection, but everything else you described is right on the mark. As for the dance stage and energy level, I wouldn't just chalk it up to being a Sunday night. That seems to have been the case just about every time I've been in there. Occasionally, I've actually seen a girl go on stage but, as rare as that seems to be, I'm not really sure why they even have a stage. At least at Arcada's they dance and strip so you can more easily and thoroughly "check them out before buying". The chicas at either of these places are not exactly "prime cut" but you can get some very decent sessions there and the price is certainly right. The back rooms are just as grungy as you described if not more so. I'd half think about bringing a plastic bed sheet with me to lay down for protection :) but when you consider where you're sticking your dick I guess one has to have kind of a high tolerance for grunge anyway.

BTW, they have a vieja who takes care of the rooms at places like this and Arcadas (though you wouldn't think anyone takes care of them judging by the grunge) and I guess whose real job is to knock on doors when the sessions are up. It might not hurt to give her a small propina on the way in and quietly ask for "un poco más tiempo, por favor" when you do, although personally I've always done my deed and gotten out whenever I've sessioned there.

That's no joke last year 3 trannies took a friend of mine to the ground, punching and kicking him in the park next to DR. mind you he's a much smaller with a docile type of personality. So I understand why they took advantage of him we were all well-informed.

I guess he didn't believe it. He does now $875. It cost and the rest of the trip with a black eye and bruises.

Sir real,

That girl you hit back door (42 year old) I have did many times and she loves the back door. I have bar fined her a few times and she aways is sure to please. And is very sweet to me.

Even if I take a girl right in front of her she never gets pissed or acts mad. Those rooms are bad so the 20. 00 to bar fine a girl you know will be a good time is money well spent.

Rzoll and dear concerned friends, I am writing these reports from the safety of my home in California. Although I did walk all over SJ in my week there, I never encountered any problems. I have RTFF and did not recall any of our fellow hobbyists having any trouble with crime in the streets, so that is why I thought I could walk all over the city with no fear. I guess it also helps that I am a pretty big guy. I don't know, maybe I was just lucky. At the end of today's report, there was an interesting incident relating to this very issue but one has to read on for that story.

My last full day in CR and friends back home told me I had to go to Arenal Volcano and the Tabacon hot springs resort before I leave C. R. I was hesitant to go because it seems more like a couples place; but, I figured this maybe the only time in my life I will be visiting CR so I had better go while I had the chance. Who knows, I may meet some single women. After a long bus ride, we never even got to see Arenal because clouds and rain obscured the view of the volcano. The resort was full of bickering couples (old and young) and the single women were uninteresting, to say the least. I have enjoyed hot springs in other countries (NZ, Japan) and this was just more of the same, but more catered for tourists. The only saving grace was the dinner buffet and some American guys I befriended.

Back in SJ after a real long ride in the fog on narrow country roads in a gigantic behemoth of a bus, I took my last half tab of generic V, turning my tongue blue because I grounded it up and let it dissolve under my tongue for quicker absorption. A short, safe walk through the Amon district led me to VIP's Taberna. The first babe to catch my eye sat by the door, displaying the most cavernous cleavage I have ever seen. She was talking to her friend so I just walked by and sat at the bar, waiting for an opening (literally). When I had my attention diverted, some other jerk on the prowl took her. Damn! After a while, I focused my attention on a young, skinny, and very pretty blond with nice jugs, but not as impressive as the door girl's. When I spoke with Melissa, I felt like I was in high school again. She was that young looking. Luckily, when Melissa escorted me to our room in the back, I got to see the chesty door girl walk around naked in the hallway after leaving the shower room. To my great relief, those ample bosoms that so impressed me turned out to be fake. Now, for the time being, I was glad I chose Melissa. Once inside our standard SJ grungy fun room, we got down to business and thanks to the English generic V pill I took earlier, for me this business would be good. The session started off on a sour note as she would not do BBBJ. Oh well, I could look past that since she was so attractive. Her technique though left much to be desired. The second strike was that she would not take off her top. WTF? She explained that she recently had a baby (which I could not believe because she was so skinny) and that she was still lactating. I told her I didn't care, so she whipped out her tits and promptly squirted mother's milk all over my stomach. At this, I started to think about Monica Belluci's lactating prostitute character in the movie "Shoot them' Up. " When we were finally in intercourse, I can confirm that she just had a baby. She was definitely loose alright. When I politely asked for culito, she vehemently denied. The third strike occurred when I asked her about her age. An innocent question, so I had thought. Melissa became all defensive and would not say. I knew she looked young but how young? I assumed she had to be over 18 to work there. Since she was not going to tell me, I had had enough. I was still polite and courteous but I was adamant that this session was over. I left VIP's and walked to the Del Rey hotel.

This was my last night in SJ after one week and I still had not taken a girl back to the Castillo. What kind of a mongerer am I? Against my better judgment, I went back to the world famous Blue Marlin. I have already struck out twice here but I figured any girl I pick up would be a better experience than with Melissa at VIP's. Fortunately, the first chica I spoke to was Raquel, a 30-something Tica. She was attractive and had a friendly smile, which was all that I needed. She did not seem as cold and money-hungry as the Colombianas I had encountered earlier in the week. Since it was getting late, I did not want to waste any time so I proposed we walk back to the Castillo and get to know each other a bit along the way. She promptly refused to do that, saying it was too dangerous to walk through the park. She actually did have a look of fear in her eyes. I relented and we both got in to a cab. Once back in my room, Raquel turned out to be an all-star, a real GFE. For the longest time, we were doing it so hard and heavy (thanks generic V! ), my neighbors objected by banging on the walls. I wanted to give a pearl necklace since her breasts were so nice. She obliged and I squirted one out so wildly that one big chunk actually made a loud noise when it landed on the floor several feet away. I accidentally got a little in her hair and she reacted like she was just doused with acidic blood from one of those "Aliens" movie creatures. Why do so many women have problems with our natural hair conditioner? It certainly helped Cameron Diaz in "There's Something about Mary. " Aside from this minor incident, Raquel was a fantastic way to spend my last night in Costa Rica.

Had a crazy time in SJO. Hooked up at the Sportsmen’s Lodge with fellow mongers. Went strip club hoping one night and learned a new term, ‘HIGH SCHOOL’ hard on—the marvels of medical science. Everyone got the TICA club discount at most places. I will get a card for my next trip. AVOID KABAR. They would not honor card and tried to hit us for $20.00 cover each—nine of us

The Lodge is a great place and a good value. Cuba Libra 1,500 CR ($3.00) and full American breakfast was 2,500 CR. A good continental breakfast is include and sleep over TICAs can eat free.

Another monger had one tica from the Del Ray asked $200/hr and when asked if there was s discount for two hours, she laughed. He kept looking. The Chop was able to get an all nighter for $50. Had to tell her I’d be back in May to marry her. It will be my fault if she never trust another man for the rest of her life.

New Fantasy was not has good as others said. The one I was with said she was breast feeding and did not want me to touch her breast. Five minutes working on my back, the flip, two minutes, lube and then she started a HJ. Asked for more and she put on rain gear and started a lame BJ. It would seem you have to be very specific what you want including breast touching. To much BS for me.

On a different night had a good tome with a Columbian also from the Del Ray. Negotiated to 70. Got back to the room and tipped an extra 30 great service

Well, I finally made my newbie trip to San Jose Feb. 29 to March 6. I had a both relaxing and busy time. I didn’t get in to my room until about 6pm at the Vista Linda. After a very long day of travel I crashed around 9pm.

I took the bus downtown the next morning with one of the regular visitors at the VL. We arrived at the Del Rey around 10:00am. Though it was a bit slow because of the early hour I felt as though I had arrived in the promise land. All that I had read before was true; women of all shapes, sizes, looks and personalities were working on getting in this middle-aged fat boy’s pants for the right price. For the price of a regular drink a lady will hang with you and allow full access to her merchandise while trying to close the deal. After a few drinks my friend from the VL had to leave but I hung out for another hour taking in the scenery and enjoying the slice of life that is the Blue Marlin. I didn’t field any of the offers being it was early in the day. But I do now regret turning one in particular down. Oh well, a newbie mistake.

I spent a few hours walking around town and having lunch at a soda. It was odd for me to see rice, pasta and mashed potatoes on the same plate. Starchy! I later returned to the Del Rey and met up with some CRT members. All seemed to be nice guys who were helpful to this newbie. Someone mentioned the talent was good that day at New Fantasy. I got a cab for NF but was taken to Zona Blue. My guess is the cabbie gets some money to take gringos there. I didn’t care, ZB was fine by me.

What a fun but somewhat pricey place to drink. The bartenders there really know how to deal with us crazy and drunk gringos in what is essentially a wild frat party for middle-aged guys. The talent varied in looks and a few of the better known ZB girls were there. I finally picked a pretty and petite Nica girl to pop my newbie cherry. Sorry but I’m bad with names. It was pretty good for my first session, though I doubt I would repeat with her, She had a few too many restrictions; no deep kissing, bbbj or dining at the Y.

The next day being Sunday I just relaxed, caught up on emails and did some grocery shopping. The perfect weather made relaxing all the better.

On Monday I met with a retired monger at the HDR to take a walking tour of low end Massage Parlors. I finally ended up at La Mansion. I took the hour session for a total cost of about $24. (See photo section). Though the girl was young and inexperienced it was a pretty good session. I had sessions at two other low end MP’s during my trip. One was a soapy massage (unique for San Jose) and a place somewhere on Calle 6. Both were exceptionally good sessions.

A note to all newbies: Though San Jose is a large city, with the exception of downtown there are no street names and very few street signs. Places are found by landmarks for directions and by the names of barrios. Now I understand why people here and on CRT debate the locations of bars and other places.

I know some are not keen on staying at the Vista Linda because it’s not in the middle of the action and some see the location as a bad neighborhood. It was easy enough to get the bus downtown a block away though I always took a cab back at night. A cab cost about $2 and the bus $0.34. I had no problem walking anywhere in the area in the daytime. Night was different but that’s the way it is all over San Jose. The Vista Linda is a very cost effective way to stay in San Jose and away from the noise of downtown at night. My room had a full kitchen and private bath. The place is very clean and well run by Carlos the owner, who is a heck of a nice guy. The regular and long time residents at Vista Linda gave me invaluable information on how to make the best of my all too short week in SJ. When I come back to visit SJ, Vista Linda will again be my residence.

Like Jerry Springer, here are some final thoughts: Costa Rica is a great place to visit and I really enjoyed just being there. Most Ticos and North Americans I met were very friendly and helpful. This was my first mongering trip to a Latin American locale and I hope to return soon. I never got out of the city to do any tours or visit other towns, just bad scheduling on my part but certainly will next time. I highly recommend TACA Airlines. They have newer planes, my flights and connections were always on time and the airfare (IAD to SJO $270.44 RT w/ all fees and taxes) was fantastic. Even though I RTFF several times over I made a few rookie mistakes (probably could have got laid more) but all-in-all a great trip!

PURA VIDA!

Sir Real,

I'm glad you made it back safely. But PLEASE listen to the guys who tell you it's not safe to walk at night in SJ. It's REALLY not. The girls know better than any of us, they're in it all the time and you heard and saw the fear in her when you even suggested such a thing.

You can probably walk from SL to Castillo, but not as far as ZB or NF (of course, you wouldn't really be doing that at night anyway, but it's an example.

You can walk from SL to Cafe Mundo for example, but NOT to the DR.

You can walk from the DR to Avenida Central, but no farther (like Idem).

The only time we did any walking was when there were 6 of us, and even then it's dodgy (we had four guys over 250lbs). And I'm probably bigger than you are, so that's not the issue.

Taxis don't cost squat. Seriously. Please use them. Even when you get ripped off and pay 1-2K it's still more than worth it. Add up all the money you'd ever spend on Taxis at night and it's negligible compared to getting seriously hurt with the potential for permanent damage (even if unintended, and a fluke).

I've walked all over the world at all hours of the night, from the former Soviet States to back-alley Bangkok. I've slept on a ship in the Baltic with bikers who were on the run, and on park benches in New York. I've stumbled half conscious through Asia at 3AM and had no problems. But I wouldn't walk in SJ at night if you paid me.

archie,
if you've really done all those things you say you have then i'm really surprised you think sj is so bad. i'm not saying walking everywhere in sj after dark is a like a walk in the park, but i would say walking most of those routes that you mentioned are certainly no more dangerous than some of the other things you have done. we all need to put things in perspective and not blow things out of proportion. there are many things we all do that if you could look at it statistically are much more dangerous than those walks that you described.

i've walked back from idem to the hdr/bm after it closed (around midnight) and walked back from the hdr/bm to my hotel on avenida 9 many times after dark and never had any problem. i've even done those things solo (more times than not). i'm not saying that it is perfectly safe (what is?), but it is a calculated risk that at least sometimes makes sense.

sure a cab only costs a buck or two, but that is a buck or two every time. what are the real odds of getting mugged and what are the likely consequences?

like i said, i've done short walks dozens of times and have never been mugged. have i just been lucky? perhaps. or maybe there is something else about how i go about it? like i said before i usually walk alone. that certainly is not a factor in my favor and yet based on my experience the odds have been less than 1 in dozens of walks for me. a couple more caveats. if it were a matter of walking through a really dangerous area like parque central or the zona roja, or some great distance, then i'd spring for a cab. but i could sprint from the hdr all the way to the sl before the trannies even knew what was happening if i had to. btw, i'd also never cheap out and undertake such a walk with a chica because a) she probably couldn't run so easily if we needed to (particularly if she were in high heels) and b) i'm not a cad who would run and leave her to fend for herself. i'd also never walk it if i were drunk, which from what i've seen is a common factor in many of the robberies that i've seen reported. i'm 6'1" 205lbs, in pretty good shape, and walk very purposefully and alertly, which might discourage some would-be muggers, but i realize i'm no match for a guy (or group of guys) with a gun if i were to let them get close enough to pull one. which is another thing. i try not to let anyone get that close. i watch where i'm going and glance back frequently behind me. i'll cross the street or even walk a block or 2 out of my way to avoid any questionable character(s) and i'll even run if i think i have to. but, if i ever was cornered, i'd give up my money without a fight. these are all fairly common sensical things to do if you're going to walk at night (or even, sometimes and in some places around the world, during the day), but you'd be surprised how many guys make stupid mistakes and those are the ones who make the odds seem so much worse than they really are. so the chances of any walker who takes those basic precautions of getting mugged are much less than the certainty of the cabfare no matter how small that amount might be.

and what would these walkers lose? physically speaking, i haven't heard of any gringos getting killed by muggers and the only ones i have heard of getting at all seriously injured are the ones that resist. chances of anything that bad happening if you cooperate are remote in the extreme (you might as well worry about your chances of getting hit by a car crossing avenida 2 or 5 during the day as being murdered by a mugger after dark). much more possibly and at worst you might get a few gratuitous punches or scrapes from being shoved down but probably not even that. you'll probably be more nerved up by the experience than anything else, but that is nothing a stiff drink can't cure and what a good tale you'd have to tell your buddies about over those drinks. what about potential financial losses? the other key is to never be so stupid as to carrying more than you'd be prepared to lose. some of these guys who have been mugged report losing such things as gold chains, watches, or the money that they probably flashed around back at the bar. what did they think might happen? maybe the mugger just got lucky or maybe these guys did something beyond just being a gringo to advertise their value as target. i never wear jewelry (who am i trying to impress? the chicas so she'll think she can get more money from me?). at most i have a cheap watch and usually not even that. and i never go out at night with more cash than i need to pay for a few drinks. usually, by the time i go home i have less than $5 remaining. the chica money stays back at my hotel in the safe and even then only comes out at the end of any session.

the favorite rationale you guys use is that "the cab only costs a buck". i'm sorry, but that is faulty logic. if you're going to reduce your argument to the cost of just one trip to make it seem more minor, then you also have to reduce your analysis to just the odds for that same one trip. over time there may be a lot of gringos getting mugged, but the odds for just one trip are even more minor then the cabfare. just do the math. if you walk the short distance back to your hotel 100 times instead of taking the $1 cab and the chances of being mugged on any walk is only 1 in 100 (i think it is even less than that) and you only carry at most $20 at any one time, that means you'll be spending at least $100 to save at most $20. it doesn't seem like such a minor cost savings when you look at it that way.

once again, i am not saying walking sj after dark is perfectly safe and i am not recommending it if one does not at least take the precautions i've described. what i am saying is what risks there are are often greatly exaggerated based usually on hearsay and anecdotal thirdhand reports where all the contributing details are left out or not known. you hear frequently about those but you don't think how many more guys leave cr without anything like that happening to them. and the guys who have been mugged, how many trips had they taken before it happened to them? frankly, if you want to talk about relative risk, in terms of frequency if not also cost, then i think you should worry more about getting tricked or hustled by the chicas and various ticos that hang out by the hdr. probably far more has been lost due to rfm's to guys after they've gone home than has ever been lost to muggers while they were in cr.

Prolijo, you're an experienced monger so you can call your own shots. I respect that.

But it seems to me that it's irresponsible (not saying you're doing this) to encourage any newbie to walk around at night in SJ. It's just simply not safe. Is everywhere in the US safe? Hell no. I wouldn't walk plenty of places here where I live. Hell, I wouldn't even go into some neighborhoods even in a car if I didn't have to.

But SJ in particular is not safe for street walking at night. Point Blank. That's not my opinion, that's the opinion of virtually every experienced traveler I've ever heard (present company excepted) on CRT.

On CRT just a month or so ago another guy got beat up pretty bad. He was a friend of Phoenix's.

Within the last few months a lot of the guys have been talking about things that have happened and talking about what to do about it (some suggestions more reasonable than others), but the point is that it's generally considered to be unsafe. I heard that from every experienced monger in SJ. You're the first to disagree. That's cool. I respect your opinion. But you are the first I've heard blow it off.

If you wish to run the statistics, that's fine. I'm not lecturing you. You know what you're doing. But let's not sugar coat it and blow it off. This is serious stuff. We can hypothesize from the comfort of our keyboards, but I wouldn't want to be a contributing factor of some kid getting his head kicked in by 5 Ticos for his $100 because we told him Morazon was a good place to walk through at night on his way from SL to the DR.

I don't want to sound too fear-mongering either (perhaps I came across that way). But I just don't think it's worth it. It didn't take me any more than the ride from the airport to the SL to realize "I don't think we're in Kansas any more Toto". SJ is different than Bangkok. I wouldn't walk Klong Toey at night either, but that's the exception. But don't misunderstand that I'm suggesting that all of those things I listed were "less" dangerous than SJ. That's not what I'm saying. What I was showing is that I've been there and done that, so it's not like I've lived my life in a bubble. I wouldn't do many of the things I've done in my past again now. That's the point of being older and wiser.

I guess YMMV. But I'm sticking to what I've been told, and what I've seen. And I would second the common saying on CRT "Rule #1, put your butt in a taxi, Rule #2 ???"

How safe is it in the bars and MPs? Are some safer than others? I would assume its pretty safe at these places but there always exceptions.

I have been to SJ a few times and am returning in late May. Many parts of SJ are very safe during the day time, but after dark things and people change. I always get this eerie feeling walking from the SL to the Castillo. Hell I have even thought about taking a cab. I wouldn't even THINK about walking from the Del Rey to the Castillo at night, thats just asking for trouble. Things are just not safe around SJ at night. If you see a group of 3 or more people walking at night, just walk the other way or opposite side of the street.

A taxi driver even showed me a few places where it would not be safe to walk during the day. I think he said it was a Barrio where the Panamanians hang out?

How safe is it in the bars and MPs? Are some safer than others? I would assume its pretty safe at these places but there always exceptions. You might have problems going to MP's on Calle 6 or 7 at night. Most NA mongers avoid these areas on foot at night, some even in the daytime. But I personally ever had a problem in the daytime. Inside the MP's shouldn't be a problem. Bars might be another matter but I never had a problem. I went to a few Tico bars with experienced SJ mongers and never had a problem. I was told to avoid some local places by the same mongers. If your going there meet up with some of the experienced mongers or CRT members at the usual Gringo hangouts, like the HDR, New York Bar and all the rest. But if you RTFF you'll see all the "safe" places to hang out.

Archie,
I don't really have the energy or desire to rehash this old debate yet again. Everyone has their own view on this and will do whatever they think best. However, I will repeat or clarify a few key points.

1) I did not mean to encourage any unknowing newbies to blindly walk the streets at night. You should note that I couched what I said by saying such things as: not a walk in the park, not perfectly safe, sometimes makes sense, etc. I also tried to emphasize the vital importance of basic street sense which I'd now add many guys, particularly newbies, don't seem to have. One of the elements of that street sense that is perhaps the most important is knowing which areas we'd all agree should NOT be walked alone after dark under ANY circumstances. That knowledge only really comes from local experience. For example, Sir Real walked alone all the way from the Arcada neighborhood. That takes you through areas that even I wouldn't walk now. Even he reportedly sensed that the area was somewhat dodgey but ignored his gut. That is a newbie mistake. If you don't really know how dangerous an area might be, don't walk it.

2) As for the opinions on CRT, it is true that most guys share your views, but it is definitely NOT universal. There are other guys, including vets, who share my view and they also get roundly criticised whenever they state their opinion. Does that make the minority view wrong? Not necessarily. What I've been describing is a sort of mass hysteria or at least a mass over-reaction to an admittedly bad situation that has been getting worse. Are muggings a real and growing problem in SJ? Absolutely. Does that mean you'll probably get mugged every other time you dare to walk more than a few steps at night, as some of the warnings seem to suggest? IMHO,that is the over-reaction.

3) Your initial response also included the speculation about "getting seriously hurt with the potential for permanent damage". I'm sure you could cite numerous cases of guys getting mugged (more on that in a moment), but I challenge you to cite even one case where a gringo got seriously hurt (other than in his wallet) let alone suffered permanent damage from a mugging where he did not resist. It hasn't happened. Would I WANT possibly to get even just scuffed up or punched in the stomach or MAYBE something slightly worse? Of course not, but your post suggested risks far greater than anything like that.

4) Of course there are no real statistics on crime on Gringos in SJ, at least none that is reliable. The mass fear is based mostly on anecdotal reports of gringos that have been mugged, and there HAVE been many. Those stories grab our attention. However there are also many many more guys who have travelled down there without any incidents (or only an isolated incident after many many trips). No one writes a report like "I went to CR and did NOT get mugged".

5) The other problem with basing your reaction on such anecdotal reports is that you usually don't know all the contributing factors. If you go back over those reports you'll see that the majority of them reveal at least some critical contributing factor such as having had too much to drink, or that a gold chain or expensive watch "was stolen" (but less often the less obvious fact that they shouldn't have even been wearing that gold chain or watch to begin with). The rest of them don't state or admit what contributing factors might have been present, but I'm guessing that some were there. If you factor out all those cases and just look at the cases where guys cautiously walk short distances after dark, you'll see the odds of getting mugged really are much less than have been reported (though not non-existent).

6) There certainly are plenty of situations that call for taking a cab after dark. Going to or from the Arcada area is one of them if for no other reason than it is a fairly decent walk distance-wise and if you add that to the security aspect and it definitely tips the scales. Even walking the short distance between the HDR and the Prez might make some sense on occasion if you had been drinking, had gambling winnings, had a chica with you, etc. but that area is a particularly bad area for muggings because it is so target rich for muggers. However walking the 2-3 blocks along deserted Avenida 9 like you describe is not the risky proposition that you portrayed of you have any sense about you.

Finally, I want to re-emphasize that I'm in the unenviable role of playing the devil's advocate here. Nowhere did I state or even mean to suggest that walking SJ after dark is perfectly safe. What I've been saying is that the dangers are often way overstated. And rarely have I seen it more overstated than in your post when you compared it to some of the other things that you've done and seemed to blow off in comparison. Compare it to the safe residential neighborhoods that most of us come from if you want, in which case SJ is very dangerous. But don't compare it to those other places and make it seem like SJ is the most dangerous place on the planet, because it is not.

How safe is it in the bars and MPs? Are some safer than others? I would assume its pretty safe at these places but there always exceptions.MP's are fairly safe, but the neighborhoods they're sometimes in are not. Mitigating that is the fact that you normally go to such places only during the day. That said, I wouldn't bring any more cash to an MP than I was planning to spend. I don't think it is very common, but who knows who might slip into the room and go through your pockets while you are taking a shower or otherwise indisposed.

Bars are another story. Again, the real danger probably comes from where the bars are located. And the fact that we're probably talking more about night time activities doesn't exactly help. If you're cruising the tico bars of the zona roja, then you better be careful walking around outside the bar and take a cab home (and to get there depending on how early you start drinking). The gringo bars like the BM are only slightly different. The mere fact that there are many gringos there with money in their pockets will attract lots of ne'er do wells just outside its doors. Inside, security keeps it fairly safe. Again, there is always the possible danger of being pickpocketed anywhere so keep it secure no matter where you are, never flash your dough and try not to carry any more cash than you really need to (your bankroll should stay at home, that is what your hotel safe is for)

Be smart, be careful but don't become paranoid about it.

I have lived in SJ for 4 years and I also read La Nacion everyday and I think think archie is more correct in this matter.

When you read about the violent nasty killings and crime on a daily basis you get a feel for the danger level.

Sure a foolish gringo may not get hurt seriously in a mugging but no way do I want a jittery crackhead pointing a gun at my head.

Walking late at night from the DR to av 9 is foolish at best.

Or talk to some Ticos, they know the danger level more than any instant know it all gringo tourist. Why do you think the streets are deserted late at night? The Ticos know better.

It is very simple. Take a cab at night and walk virtually anywhere during the day.

Hello Guys!

From the threads here on the forum I can see that some of you contributors have alot more experience in CR than me, so I adress this question on this thread:

From what I understand:

If you are married or have children with a woman from CR - You can live and run your own small business in CR legally.

This seems to be the cheepest and most smooth way to get recidency and to get going with your company in CR.

However, if the girl decides to leave you (divorce) - and that has happend MANY good guys before - Will she be able to take "half the house and half the wallet" when she leaves, or is it possible to, in some way "protect" your business from beeing "stolen"?

I do not by any means whant to be sneaky or unfair towards the girl - no way. I just don't want to get "robbed on my business" because she wants money.

I have not been able to find good information on the subject, but maybe you guys can help me with some basic guidelines.

Best regards, and hope for some good info / Ken Apples

Of course not, but your post suggested risks far greater than anything like that.When I was staying at the Castillo this last December I chatted quite a bit with the owner of the Gardens restaurant ( a fellow cheesehead ), he has been living in CR for about 7 years. Apparently he got mugged a while back and did not resist but they used his head as a punching bag anyway. He was in the hosital for over a week and had multiple surgeries to try and fix the eye area without much success. He also said they caught the attacker(s) and the only punishment they got was 24 hours in jail.

It comes down to personal choice of course but in my book I would rather pay the buck or two for the cab - why take the chance.

No one writes a report like "I went to CR and did NOT get mugged."I went to CR and did NOT get mugged.

And I have to laugh, because a while back Prolijo chewed me out on this very board for stating that I had walked from the Del Rey to the Apartamentos Sudamer after dark (about nine blocks).

At least his admonishment was mild and reasoned, rather than going completely over the top like many others do.

I enjoy being amongst the people, even after dark. I have gone into neighborhoods throughout Central America after I have been warned that no gringo has ever come out alive. Probably because no other gringo ever went there in the first place.

Sometimes people claim that hey heard the warning from a local, as if that is supposed to give it extra credence, making anyone who questions it a fool.

I have learned that the LEAST reliable advice comes from the locals who have a long memory. They may recall a murder that happened on some corner 15 years ago or so and have been afraid of the place ever since. They neglect to consider that thousands of people have come and gone on that same corner daily without any other incident.

Hopefully my luck won't run out any time soon.

But I have been very fortunate to have had a very powerful guardian angel so far.

You all probably don't have one, so take a taxi. I certainly don't want your blood on my hands in case of the unlikely chance that you have a problem.

I guess that means I shouldn't drive a car. Sure, anything can happen. That doesn't mean it is likely. And it doesn't mean that we take lots of other risks every day that are probably more likely and just as or even more consequential. Sure walking can be easily avoided, but does it always really need to?

As for the case you cited, it being third-hand, I have to wonder what part he left out. If he did not resist, why did they attack him so severely? I suppose it could have been just for "fun" but that is not the usual M.O. usually those guys are in much more of rush to run off with their haul so they can score some crack or whatever they do with it (and so they won't get caught, not that there seems to be much risk of that). Also, left out of your story is how many times in those 7 years he walked without getting mugged and what other contributing factors might have been present.

Look, you can walk at night 99 times and not have a problem, but the 100th time you may get mugged, beat up, seriously hurt, or even killed. NO THANKS, I'll spend $100-200 for taxis. I usually carry more than $20 in my wallet, but I'm more concerned about being pistol whipped or shot in the stomach during the robbery.

Most of those who claim to walk at night are just too cheap to pay for a cab. They are usually the same guys taking the public bus from the airport. There are a bunch of guys like this. They don't mind risking their well-being to save a couple of bucks.

In the end, it's everybody's own choice as to what to do. Personally, I won't walk 2 blocks at night, and I try not walk much in the daytime ALONE. Walking alone is just not as safe. This is where the wingman comes in handy.Look, you can have sex with a prostitute with a condom 99 times and not have a problem, but the 100th time that condom might break (btw, that effectiveness rate comes right off the condom box) and if that happens you may get syphillis, gonorhea or even die from AIDS. NO THANKS, I'll stop mongering. That is the same sort of logic. What you seem to be saying is that if there is a risk of something really serious happening to you no matter how remote, then you will refuse to take that chance.

My 100 figure was a completely arbitrary one for purposes of illustration. If a guy can live every day in San Jose for years before he has a mugging incident, then that number is probably much higher than that. More than that, even if you get mugged (or have a condom break), the odds of that incident ALSO resulting in serious injury (or in the case of the condom failure resulting in you catching an uncurable disease) is several orders of magnitude beyond that, making those odds unlikely in the extreme.

As for your other comments, I don't claim to have walked at night. I have walked at night. I don't always do it, but sometimes I do, so I guess that only makes me sometimes "cheap". But if it was only about saving money, wouldn't I never take a cab. Frankly, I find those comments fairly offensive, since they seem to be directed at me. Apparently, you don't have a clue about what motivates me. I'm not calling anyone an idiot for taking a cab. IMHO, this all comes down to one's perception and tolerance for risk. If you're too uncomfortable walking anywhere even during the day, then by all means take cabs. However, if you want to get personal and judgemental then I'll just come out and say it, feeling uncomfortable walking in SJ at night is one thing, but anyone who thinks walking alone even during the day is just not safe is a real pussy.

Why do you think the streets are deserted late at night?They're pretty deserted at night in my neighborhood here in the states too, I guess that must mean my suburban streets are dangerous too rather than simply people are spending their evenings chilling out in front of their TV's after a long day at work. The streets downtown in my city are even more deserted at night because it is mostly businesses downtown which are closed at night and most people live elsewhere. Sure security issues are a factor why streets are empty in downtown SJ late at night, but there are other ones. Besides, I wasn't just talking about "late at night". I've been saying "after dark". What is "late at night" anyway? 10PM, midnight or 2-3 in the morning? If it is really late at night and the only ones out are drunks and muggers, I'll probably be creeped out too and opt for a cab. Earlier in the evening, the streets aren't actually completely deserted, so there goes your theory or at least at those times. Later, sometime between then and the wee hours of the morning I'll readily admit it starts to get more iffy. But as you can see a lot of these guys are talking in absolutes or even extending their exaggerated fears to walking in the daytime.

In fact, I've heard a good rule of thumb that others might find helpful in making their personal safety decisions. If you see a local couples sitting on benches after dark holding hands or kissing or whatever (ie it is what they call a "kissing park"), then the park area is probably pretty safe for walking through. This is not something I made up but heard this from locals and I've seen couples in Morazon and even Parque Espana as late as 10-11PM if not even later (it probably has something to do with when the police patrol shuts down for the night).

Also, left out of your story is how many times in those 7 years he walked without getting mugged and what other contributing factors might have been present.You asked, no wait you challenged for an example of serious damage done to someone from the mugging and I provided one. If you want to get more details talk to Tom next time you are in CR.

Obviously we can not live in a bubble to avoid all potential risks in life but we can make smart decisions to avoid unnesecary risk. Just as in any city of size there are bad areas, SJ is no exception. I certainly wouldn't walk through portions of the inner city at night where I live just to save a few bucks.

I agree the chances are small that you will get mugged, hell I walked a few times between the DR and the Castillo in the wee hours and lived to tell the tale. My main point is that I am on vacation in a foreign country where I stand out as gringo, to me it is worth the extra money. If you feel comfortable walking through SJ at night well more power to you but I think we can both agree that the newbies to SJ (I include myself in that group as Dec was my first trip to SJ) and the not so physcally robust should absolutely go the taxi route until they have more first hand info to make an informed decision.

With that being said can we end this subject and chalk it up to personal choice ? I would much rather discuss the finer points of stimulating the Costa Rica economy through it's greatest renewable resource, which of course would be the Ticas.

Prolijo,

You're far more experienced in SJ than I am. And it appears that, while we may be of slightly differing opinions on this, you're being reasonable in your approach and in your arguments. So I have no issues with that. I appreciate your take on this. I still disagree, but not stridently or irreconcilably. I don't think your position is unreasonable. You seem to qualify your statements appropriately, and therefore I should make sure I do as well. I'm certainly not saying your are GOING to get mugged, and if you do get mugged you WILL be seriously hurt. You're right, it's all about percentages.

And, as someone said earlier, we all have different levels of risk tolerance.

As for the other members who are presenting food for thought here, let's all keep in mind that Prolijo's just trying to stem the hysteria that can so often flow from situations like this. There is a downside to giving the impression (as I may have done) that SJ is a place not worth going to because it's so dangerous. I certainly don't feel that way. I love the place. And I understand your wish not to see the discussion get irrational. I empathize with that position, usually being on that end of the discussion myself. I see where you're coming from and don't have a problem with it.

No hard feelings. Pura Vida bro. ;)

Granted, I have not fully RTFF, just skimmed it. Is the going rate for chicas in San Jose between $50-$75 US? Thought I saw some as low as the 30s/40s as well. Obviously hobbying all over depends on a lot of variables: your looks, negotiating skills, demand for the particular chica, location, etc. If you could help with the following or direct me to a particular thread, I'd appreciate it, thanks!

- MP price (BBBJ only/Full Service)
- From a Casa/Brothel (Short time/TLN)
- From the street (short time/TLN)
- From a bar/club (short time/TLN)

Thanks!

archie and diesel,

i'm glad you understand where i'm coming from. on both of your last posts i completely agree. the last thing i meant to imply was that my position is right for everyone. each one has to try to make as objective an assessment of risks and probabilities as possible and then based on their personal level of risk tolerance decide what they want to do. and there are plenty of times when this cheapskate opts for a cab, just not always.

my problem is that whenever i read a post by someone that seems to me to be overstating the risks i feel i have to counterbalance it. in doing so, it might appear that i am understating the risk and perhaps to a degree i am, but as much as anything else i'm just playing the devil's advocate. then my response usually elicits a fevered response by the majority of guys who don't see it the same way as i do and then the tables turn and i find myself having to defend everything that i've said. i probably should just keep my mouth shut and do my own thing.

okay, group hug, no hard feelings, kumbayah, we'll all buy each other drinks if we ever meet in sj, and all that. now let's get back on the subject of chica's like diesel said. which brings me to rodeo....

sorry rodeo, this can be a very controversial topic and i'm not ready to get involved in yet another one this week. so i'll leave it to the other experts here as to what constitutes a fair rate and what would be overpaying. i will offer at least a couple of (hopefully) less controversial answers to some of your questions.

mp price bbbj only? not really sure, f/s is so cheap i've never gone for just a bbbj
mp full service? this is safe enough since it is a non-negotiable fixed price. tico places run $20-25/hr or something a little more than half that for a half hour. more upscale "gringo" places run about twice that or $40-50. someone else can speak up on how much to tip if any.

from a casa/brothel (short time/tln)? to my knowledge, sj does not really have a "casa/brothel" scene like other places unless you confuse those with mp's.

from the street (short time/tln)? don't even go there. you won't save that much money and you will run a much greater risk of
a) **** chicas
b) transvestites
c) drugged out chicas who will either
c-1) try to rip you off in some way or
c-2) give you some disease
i've heard a very very few guys advocating this approach as a means of getting real "bargains" (probably the same cheapskates who take the bus from the airport :) ) but i'm pretty sure the vast vast majority of guys will agree with what i just said.

from a bar/club (short time/tln)? going on-site at a strip club will be a set price but that will range from semi-reasonable at a tico strip-club with a decent looking chica all the way up to soak the rich gringo prices for the beauties you will find at the high-end clip-em joints. doing "take-out" from a bar will also vary greatly depending on whether you are taking about a low-end tico bar or a higher end bar like the blue marlin where the usually openning asking price is $100/hr. that is asking price. some chicas will stick on that price and some guys will pay it. most guys, or at least the ones with cr experience, subscribe to the "no cien" mantra meaning never pay $100 for just an hour. those guys will either try to bargain up the time that their $100 will buy or bargain down the price. the price range you stated seems to be the rough consensus, but there are plenty of guys who will pay more for a chica they find especially hot and there are also plenty of guys who claim to routinely be able to negotiate even less then $50. ultimately it comes down to your negotiating ability and/or how far you're willing to push back on price. i'll refrain from making any further comment on either extreme.

03-16-08, 04:51

whoops, you've done it again...start by offering an answer and end by making a judgement...And your point is? Are you saying you disagree with that "judgement" or are you just trying to be the usual complete dickhead that you usually are whenever I make my posts?

Call it an answer or call it a judgment if you prefer. Who cares besides you? However, since you felt compelled to make some sort of dig, I feel compelled to educate your ignorant ass.

Like many things in life, the answers to many questions are often not exactly black and white and so are necessarily somewhat subjective. However, my "answer" was not merely my personal "judgment". As near as I can tell, it seems to be the judgement of just about every guy that I've ever heard speak up on the subject (with very very few exceptions). In fact, up until now, I can only vaguely recall reading ONE guy advocate exploring the street scene in SJ. Come to think of it you were probably that ONE guy who I was thinking of. Most guys these days seem to advocate the exact opposite, to not even go out on the streets after dark whether to shop for a SW or for any other reason. Apparently, you're the one rare exception who disagrees with virtually everyone else on this subject. That's fine by me. I hope you catch something.

Read back over my post. First of all, I never said my response wouldn't include any personal judgments. What I said was that I'd offer "at least a couple of (hopefully) less controversial answers". "LESS" controversial means that they were at least somewhat open to debate and thus I never suggested that they were 100% definitive answers. OTOH, I WAS hoping that there were so damn close to definitive that no one would disagree with me. Thanks for dashing those hopes. Secondly, what about that "judgment" you say I ended with? Again, reread my post. I carefully couched my statement by stating that I was "pretty sure" most guys would agree with me and allowed that some (albeit a very few) might disagree. So again, I think I made it clear enough that my "answer" was not being presented as some sort of absolute definitive one. However, while that near universality may not raise this "judgment" to the level of a definitive answer, IMHO it comes pretty much as close as one can come.

And that is why I offered that answer, er excuuusse meee, judgment. Not because I agreed with it, although I do, but because it seemed to me to be the nearly universal collective judgment of this body of SJ mongers and thus was something that nearly all of us would agree with. I intended to leave the more controversial aspects of the questions raised by Rodeo to others to fight about. Unfortunately, it seems that some assholes have to be contrary about even the most simple things.

OK, I don't think I can answer Rodeo's question without giving my judgment, so I'll just give my judgment and hope nobody's too critical of my answer. Then I can come back and look to all the other helpful posters who provided their own answers to Rodeo's question, surely there will be a lot of detailed and helpful answers given by that point. So far I've only seen one. We can then compare......or not. :)

Rodeo, I suggest you forget the street. It's not really a vibrant scene in SJ, and what is out there is about 80% transvestite. It's just not "the thing" in SJ. It's similarly scarce with the bar/club scene. You can find places some people call bars or clubs with girls, but compared to the Del Rey and Key Largo, it's just small time stuff and it's not really representative of the scene in SJ. Strip clubs are generally not worth it price-wise unless you know exactly which one to go to.

So if you're trying to put your finger on the pulse of what the scene is like in SJ, you need to know the score at the Del Rey, and the Massage Parlors. That is 80-90% of the action in SJ.

MP:
Tico/low end places range commonly from $20-30, popular Gringo hangouts are $40-$50. Tips at the popular places commonly run $0-$10, but $20 for rock star girls with the PSE.

DR:
Rock Star Columbianas want more than Cien, and they get it. But there are few of those. Everyone else (95%) wants Cien. Popular girls will be firm and will get it. The rest will negotiate either extra services/time and keep you at Cien, or will go for less ($50-$75) for the straight hour. Afternoons are a little cheaper, girls commonly at $60. But there are some fuglies floating around and $30 is not unrealistic. But seriously, why bother?

There you go, that's the layout of the scene in SJ in about 10 sentences. Could I have possibly generalized any more? Could I have said anything else to start a fight? Oh, here I go......If you disagree with anything I've said, you're an idiot and don't know what you're talking about. There is no debate on this. I'm right.

That oughta do it. :P :))

Its a shame that the 2 members that offer the most to this site member 2666 with all his photos and prolijo with his 4to 5 posts every week. Since I know both of you. I would say "experts"on the sceen in san jose. I just hate to see the name calling and calling out of each other. I have tried to get the 2 of you together for a day in san jose as you are both very likeable guys and have alot of passion for san jose and its people. But what happens (seen it on other boards) that when people fight they either stop posting (which I hope dosnt happen) or they become friends.

. As near as I can tell, it seems to be the judgement of just about every guy that I've ever heard speak up on the subject (with very very few exceptions). In fact, up until now, I can only vaguely recall reading ONE guy advocate exploring the street scene in SJ. Most guys these days seem to advocate the exact opposite, to not even go out on the streets after dark whether to shop for a SW or for any other reason. Apparently, you're another one of those rare exceptions who disagree with virtually everyone else on this subject. That's fine by me. I hope you catch something.
.

Dear Wordy, (that would be Projilo for those who don't know by now)

Your assesment of the "scene" here in San Jose is just that, YOUR assessment.

Unfortunately for the readers of this post your limited experience in actually being part of the "scene" distorts the truth.

That is... I am not a rare exception...there are many of us who meet many types of girls on the street and in the parks ....some in the morning, some in the afternoon and some in the evening for various types of encounters and have wonderful experiences...like it or not, believe it or not... it's true

Your sampling may be accurate for the group you are familiar with or have knowledge of but your conclusions regarding the street scene are absolutely wrong, misleading and incomplete.

It's a whole other subject as to what streets to search and what parks to frequent and when .....and how difficult it might be for the occasional traveler or weekender but the "scene" does exist and in fact I'm on my way now to see if I can land a nooner from the Parque de Cultura

Pura Vida

And your point is? Are you saying you disagree with that "judgement" or are you just trying to be the usual complete dickhead that you usually are whenever I make my posts?Talk about the kettle calling the pot black.

LOL Glad to see a hipocrite [sic] always be a hipocrite [sic].Why am I not surprised you chimed in on the other Member#'s behalf? I'm still not 100% convinced that you "2" aren't really just the same guy posting under different handles. You never seem to appear here other than to support what the "other Member" just said, which along with your similarity in handles makes your own posts seem very suspect to me. At the very least, your dog-like support of everything the "other member" posts removes any credibility you might have. So why should anyone really believe anything YOU post or put any stock in it? In fact, I have to wonder if you "2" share the same brain, or at least whatever you have that passes for one.

BTW, the expression is "the POT calling the KETTLE black", not the other way around as you have it. Presumably, the expression that everyone else uses is based on the pot being somehow even blacker than the kettle (or else is only seeing its own reflection off the kettle). So, what you just suggested is that I MAY be guilty of being a dickhead (in YOUR opinion) but that 2666 is even MORE guilty of it. Really brilliant. Please feel free to stick up for him like that as much as you want. I just love it when your two make posts that reveal your own ignorance and irrationality. I really shouldn't respond to them at all since they really speak volumes more about you than I ever could.
Dear Wordy, (that would be Projilo [sic] for those who don't know by now)

Your assesment [sic] of the "scene" here in San Jose is just that, YOUR assessment.
.... I am not a rare exception...there are many of us who meet many types of girls on the street and in the parks ...First of all, at least I'm not so full of myself like certain ahem "Members" here that I can't recognize my quirks and make light of them. The handle that I CHOSE for myself shows that not only do I FREELY acknowledge my own wordiness but I have absolutely no problem making fun of myself for it. So, why do you think your mentioning it would bother me at all? And does it really need to pointed out yet again? Even if some newer members didn't know the meaning of my handle, do you think they can't just see for themselves how I write. Frankly, I think your penchant for throwing that worn out aspect into your debates with me only shows how weak your other arguments must be. Or do you think you're somehow scoring some cheap points with those lame jokes. If you really want a joke, maybe you really should start by just looking in the mirror.

Secondly, OF COURSE my assesSment of the street scene in San Jose is just that, MY assessment. And your point is? Shouldn't the same be equally said of ANYbody that posts their comments on here INCLUDING YOU. My point is so what if it is an "assessment" or if you'd prefer to call it a "judgment", those are semantical differences without much consequence. Whatever you call it, they are each of our own "answers" which others can choose to agree with, consider or dismiss.

Thirdly, if you're not the rare exception then show me all the guys other than you and your clone who have ever recommended picking up SW's in San Jose (the posts were specifically about SW's NOT "many types of girls"). I won't bother to look up all the other guys who have essentially said what I just repeated, but I could. Just since my post, 2 guys have come out to back me up, including Archie who has disagreed with me on other issues but whom I still respect. In fact, he went so far as to estimate that 80% of the SW's in SJ are TV's. Sure, you may get lucky with some tramp you pick up off the street, but you're taking a much larger chance with one of them than you would with one that is allowed into one of the bars. And who do you have to back you up other than your clone, who called me a "hIpocrite" but hasn't yet disputed what I said about SW's? What does all that tell you?

And finally, no one here is much impressed with your CLAIMED ability to get bargain prices in the Del Rey or even freebies out on the streets, at least I'm not. The question here was posted by a NEWBIE, not a "suave local expert" like you purport to be, and about STANDARD prices on STREETWALKERS not regular girls on the street. It seemed pretty clear to me that he was thinking about women (presumably the ones that are REAL women) who stand on street corners waiting to get picked up or even call out to potential tricks. In my mind, that is nowhere near the same thing as non-pros who can be enticed to give it away for free or semi-pros who, while not averse to making a little extra money, aren't obviously out on the street for that purpose but are just going about their regular business. But perhaps you're the type of guy who views all chicas that happen to be out on the street as potential *****s.

How many newbies, probably with very limited spanish skills, lacking in any basic experience with the local culture or feel for the local scene, and probably lacking in the time or patience to "turn" a non-pro are going to be able to secure safe and economical bargains like the ones you suggest. Again it seems pretty clear, to me at least, this guy didn't have taking the time to "sweet-talk" a local chica to go back to his room in mind so much as going out on the street and quickly picking up a chica who obviously requires zero work because that is expressly what she is out there for.

I understand where he is coming from. There ARE other places throughout the world where SW's are a major venue for international mongers to look for action (and in other places it is escorts, casas, termas, nightclubs etc. or even "picking up" local girls). Each place is different. By comparison, except for a very small minority of bottom-feeders SJ decidedly does NOT have the same sort of SW scene.

Incidentally, while I've disagreed with Archie (and others at times), I can readily appreciate different points of view on many topics. One can disagree with out being disagreeable. I'd WELCOME the opportunity to sit down with guys like that at ANY time and debate the finer points of this hobby or travel in general. I'll even buy the first round of drinks. This situation is entirely different. There are divergent views on the subject of street security and I readily recognize that I'm in a small but not insignificant minority (as has been backed up by guys like Dodger et al). This last post of mine about prices was DELIBERATELY restricted to areas where I really didn't expect any disagreement. 2666's reaction was typical and I should have expected if anyone would disagree it would be him. Don't expect any kumbaya moments between me and him. If I ever see him in the BM, I'll walk the other way before I'd ever sit down and shared drinks with such a dickhead. Our complete disdain for each other is entirely mutual.

Who's angry? One has to care one way or the other about the other person to really be angry at them. And I don't really care about either of you. Sure, I think you're dickheads, but I don't lie up at night giving it any more thought than that. I'm just carefully and calmly laying out point by point why I think you guys are dickheads and why your posts are full of shit. You see, OTOH, I DO care about other members and don't want them to get erroneous impressions based on the idle boasts of a braggadocious strutter.

BTW, I may be verbose, hell I AM verbose, but at least my posts are designed to add useful positive information and opinions to the board (that is when I'm not pulled off topic defending myself from idiotic attacks) and could not be construed in any way as self-aggrandizement (as in trophy pics with unsubstantiated claims of low prices). And where did this latest exchange begin? Did I address 2666 or did he come out of left field and make a post that served no other purpose than attempt to demean me. And what about you, 2964? You have only 2 posts since last October when you initiated a series of negative posts attacking me before essentially disappearing back into the woodwork. Again, I didn't start that exchange. You did. That is yet another reason I think you serve as 2666's henchman, yes-man or possibly alter-ego, to be cranked out mostly when it somehow serves his purpose. Who do you think you're fooling? My posts may be long but I don't post cryptic one-liners with no other apparent intent other than to mock another member as you guys are so apt to do.

I'll make a deal with you guys. I'll take an anger management class if you both return to school to get that high school education you seem to be lacking. Actually, no need for school, too late for that. I'd be happy if you both simply grew up.

LOL, ha ha ha, 3 words, aren't I hilarious?

I'll make another deal with you. I'll end this now and we can go our seperate ways, each ignoring the other. The only time I ever get involved in these personal attacks is when you guys start it. So which is it? Do you guys want to continue this nonsense? I can go at this all day if need be. Or do you want to quit while you're behind? I'm sure the other members of this forum would rather we get back to the subject at hand - the business of chica hunting in CR.

<cue Eye of the Tiger music and file footage of boxer warming up>Archie, there is nothing inherently wrong with generalizations. It shouldn't even needed to be said that is what they are. After all, does anyone really expect someone to lay it out like "this girl gets this much or that girl gets that much". Hell, even that wouldn't be possible since one provider might agree to one amount with one guy on one day and a different amount with someone else on another. What is important is how useful those generalizations are in guiding our actions. How often do they hold true. I might quibble about some of your exact amounts, but overall, IME, your take here is pretty fair and accurate. Naturally, in different areas, the generalizations work better than others and there are ALWAYS at least some exceptions (for example, obviously one MIGHT find a good experience with a SW or one MIGHT find a Colombiana 10 who agrees to less than cien, but the odds are certainly stacked heavily against it). The thing is, IMHO, we play a numbers game. Most of us have limited time and/or money. We want to get the most for the least. And using generalizations, at least the more valid ones, can be a very useful way of increasing our odds of striking the winners and avoiding the duds. So, there is no need for you to make apologies for your statement (or at least not to me).

Guys, new to CR but obviously not new to mongering. I have read the forum quite thoroughly but I still need some pointed help. I am going to be in SJ for one night with three of my buddies. Is it practical to do DelRay, Zona Blue and Tango India in one night? If so, what order would you visit these places in? I picked these because I am looking to sample the top rated in each category (take out, MP and strip club) but I would love to hear if there are alternates.

BTW, it is not practical for me to do takeout from DR to my hotel near airport. Are there short term rooms in DR? May sound like a stupid question but I could not tell from the posts I read.

Thank you

Is it practical to do DelRay, Zona Blue and Tango India in one night? If so, what order would you visit these places in? ... Are there short term rooms in DR?Practical? Absolutely practical logistically. Another question might be if you have enough leche to do that many sessions in just a few hours.

I'd start out with ZB. Like most MP's it is not a real late night place (I beleive they close at 9PM during the week & 6PM on Sundays). But the bigger reason to always start out your SJ stopover with a visit to an MP is that they have a set price (excluding the extravagant tips that some guys lavish on the MP girls). Get that first nut off at an MP and you'll feel less compulsion to give in to that cien ($100/hr) asking rate at the HDR/BM, which I think should be your next stop.

The HDR/BM is a 24 hour playground but it runs particularly busy from "happy hour" in the early evening until 12-1AM. It definitely keeps going after that but by then you might find that the best "catches" may have been "fished out" (if not already taken out for a TLN, then paired up with guys who are going to be taking them out). Now, before someone attacks me for this last comment, let me allow that some guys might argue late night is a good time to "shop" as you're more likely to be able to bargain the chicas who had been holding out for that cien all night and had no takers (and thus are more apt to give in rather than go home completely empty-handed). And that is certainly a valid approach. The problem is the hottest chicas have no trouble making their score earlier in which case they're either gone for the rest of the night on a TLN, have made their goal for the night and can go home early with the money they set out to make or are back to score more dough but are clearly not as "fresh". For someone seeking to experience the Del Rey at its most impressive, IMHO, the middle part of your evening is the best time to go.

BTW, the Del Rey doesn't offer short term rooms but you can find $10 rooms just around the corner at the Hotel Asia (all the chicas will know where it is). You can also sometimes rent a room for just an hour or two at the Hotel Morazon. That hotel is on the next corner over to the west of the DR and due south of the Key Largo, which you should also check out while you're at the DR. The Key Largo has live music and salsa dancing after ~10PM each night. The chicas that hang out there are not as goodlooking as the ones that stay at the BM but it is a fun place to go and watch the girls dance (or even join in if you think you have the moves).

Finally cap off your evening at the Tango India on your way home from the Gulch. It is located in the area of Uruca, which is pretty far from the other places you're going and in the direction of the airport, and so it doesn't make much sense to have to travel back and forth. The girls there are pretty pricey, so you might want to just go there for the eye candy before calling it a night, although it might be possible (and probably cheaper) to talk a dancer in going with you back to your hotel at the end of her shift in the wee hours of the morning (if your money and energy lasts that long).

An alternative approach if you don't care about paying the few bucks extra for cabs is to gfo to Tango second. just for the show, before capping the night off at the HDR where you can more easily take a chica out for a TLN (todo la noche or all-nighter). However since you asked about ST rooms, I'm assuming that is not really what you're after.

[1]is tango the airplane club? [2]what are the dance prices? [3]what kind of extras are at tango? [4]whats the cost of take out there? [5]does anyone have any pics of these girls?isn't there a legal limit for the number of questions one can ask in a single post?

1) yes, tango is the club that has an airplane hanging from the ceiling.

2) to be honest, i'm not really sure what the dance prices or cost of "extras" are there. since it has such a bad reputation as an overpriced high-pressure clip joint, i've never bothered to check it out personally. if you go:
. . .a) bring your "guard-on" with you,
. . .b) watch your tab,
. . .c) resist the pressure to spend more than you really want to and
. . .d) absolutely don't get drunk there (or go there already drunk) as that will reduce your ability to follow a, b & c.

3) my guess would be that any "extras" you get there would be very expensive because it would require plying the dancers with expensive drinks before you'd get "any". and if f/s was on the menu it would be even more pricey still. the best bet while there is to get whatever titilation you can in terms of enjoying the scenery and perhaps getting/giving any feels you can without having to shell out any more than you have to. if you want to go for f/s then somehow arranging it outside the club would be a much cheaper bet.

4) cost of "take-out" at any of those types of places are entirely dependent on your bargaining skills and the willingness/ability of the dancer to string you along. will she be much interested in going back to your hotel with you at the end of a long shift, if she's already made a ton of money from you by getting you to buy her drinks and lap dances (ie without having to "put-out" that much)? otoh, will she be much interested in going back to your hotel with you (or spend much time with you at the club) if you somehow manage to hold on to all your money while you're there? if she is willing to entertain the idea of meeting you outside the club, what do you count as the cost of "take-out"? is it just what you agree to pay her back at your room or should you also include all the money she got you to spend on her will you were waiting for her to finish her shift? i suppose you might be able to get her to leave early by paying some sort of bar fine. again, i don't really know how it works at tango india. however, places like this in cr don't seem to work quite the same way they do in other mongering destinations, where bar fines are the norm or even the principal way clubs make their money.in cr, even more than elsewhere, business logic seems to be completely absent. otherwise, they'd lower their prices to some level that would draw in more than the tiny handful of customers willing to pay the outrageous amounts that they do charge (not to mention willing to put up with their pressure tactics). and of course any "bar fine" they might have would have to adequately compensate them for what they think they'd be losing by letting you leave with both your wallet and one of their dancers (who'd otherwise be able to help them work the next customer if she stayed).

5) sorry, no pics and their website tangoindia.net no longer seems to work, however the word is that they have absolute stunners (as well they should at those us strip club prices).

i left this out of my last post, but, imho, if you really want to experience the best of sj (in terms of mp, bar and strip club), then someplace like pantera rosa, kamur or d'pelufo would be my own choice - each with really good looking girls and with much greater likelihood of being able to relax and enjoy yourself while there without spending all your retirement savings. in fact, although i don't know much about it, d'pelufo also has a club out by the airport near where vitrea will be staying and if their club in san pedro is any indication then that might be the best place for him and his buddies to wind up their evening. if they go for that, i'd be really curious to hear their report.

I think Pantera Rosa is more of a suitable budget if you are going to a strip club. I think they have those pantera closets where you can take the girl for 14k and I was quoted as 150us for a real room for 1 hour. The girls are pretty hot too.

Here is a report on my recent visit to San Jose. I arrived very early on Monday, 17 March, for a four day visit. I departed very early on Friday, 21 March. This was my first visit, although I am not new to mongering. Most of my recent adventures have taken place in Brazil. But with only a limited amount of time, and with new direct air service to San Jose, I thought it would be a great time to visit Costa Rica. Overall the trip was a success; however, not without a few rookie mistakes and other minor mishaps.

The first lesson I learned was to heed the posts in this forum with respect to ATM hassles in CR. I wanted to get some colones, so I requested 40,000 from the ATM near baggage claim #1 at the airport. The machine started to make the proper money counting noises, but then went "temporarily out of service". And it neglected to return my debit card. My Spanish is very poor, so I appealed to the woman nearby who was selling phone cards for the ICE telecom company. She immediately took ownership of my problem, and worked her way through the Spanish phone tree at the bank until she was able to talk to a human being who gave her the number of the bank branch serving the airport. We then waited for the branch to open, and she called them for me. They didn't offer much encouragement, but she kept after them, calling them repeatedly. They finally relented and sent someone to retrieve my card. It took three hours, but I finally passed through customs with my precious debit card. This happened on Monday. On Thursday morning I checked my bank account and discovered that the 40,000 colones had been deducted from my account (but I never received them). I immediately went to Banco Costa Rica in San Jose, but they were already closed for the Easter/Spring holiday. I don't have high hopes of recovering my $80.00. I did have good luck with the ATM at HSBC bank. This branch is located on Avenida One towards the financial district which would be about a 10-15 minute walk west from the Hotel Delray. At the HSBC bank, the ATM also requires you to relinquish your card completely to the machine. It is probably best to find an ATM where you don't let go of your card.

The second thing I learned is that the week before Easter is not the best choice for mongering in San Jose. It is a spring break type of holiday, and many of the choicest chicas were apparently at the beach, or perhaps they were just resting their kitties. The real holiday started Thursday afternoon with liquour sales halted and the city becoming almost deserted. Hotel Zona Blue was apparently the last place to serve liquor, but it closed at 18:00 on Thursday for the weekend. I am so glad that I left early on Friday morning, because everything was shut for the weekend.

So my rookie lesson number one is to avoid the ATM's of Banco Costa Rica. And rookie lesson number two is don't visit San Jose during spring vacation. On the positive side, I learned how helpful the people can be. Lizelle (that's not her exact name) at the airport went all out to help me. Without her help, I would have had to cancel my debit card, and use a credit card (loan) to get my colones. I wanted to show my gratitude, but I was uncertain whether or not I might offend her by offering some money. I finally offered her $10.00, but she refused to accept it. She did give me her manager's e-mail address, and I will send him a very nice message on her behalf.

A final word about ATM's. Most of the posts in this forum discuss chica negotiations in US dollars. So I had two rookie questions. Can you get US dollars from the ATM's in CR? Will the chicas accept payment in colones? For both questions, the answer is yes. You can request dollars from the ATM's, but it really isn't necesary. At least in my very limited experience, the chicas negotiate in dollars, but they will accept colones in payment.

I chose to stay at the Hotel Zona Blue in spite of the expense. It seemed like it would be a fantasy come true to stay in a luxury suite in a brothel filled with beautiful women. And it was a pleasant stay. Eddie and the staff were all very friendly and helpful. All my laundry needs were fulfilled at no charge. (I did tip the maid.) But I don't think I would stay there again. I like rooms with lots of natural light. There is zero natural light anywhere in Zona Blue. And it closes early (9PM) and becomes nearly deserted. I like the idea of having a bar open at least until midnight. During the week, I visited Sportsmen's Lodge and El Castillo. Next time I will choose one of them. Zona Blue currently has a breakfast arrangement with the Clarion Hotel (one block to the north). Apparently there are a few glitches in this arrangement, and some of the staff at the Clarion don't accept the voucher. So ZB started giving me cash for breakfast instead of a voucher. Problem solved.

Due to the spring vacation, the second team at ZB was carrying the load. Gone were the superstars that I had wanted to see. No Andrea. No Mille. No Karin. No Naomi (although I may have spotted her on Thursday just before the holiday closing). One of the Pamela/Lorena duo was there, I think maybe it was Lorena. While many of the girls seemed to sit in the bar all day long, this Lorena (or perhaps Pamela?) was in very high demand. She would spend about 35 seconds in the bar before leaving with another client.

I was initially surprised by the number of chicas from Nicaraqua, but it makes sense that the greater poverty there probably pushes the pretty girls into the trade. Nearly every chica I met, and every chica I fucked, was from Nicaragua.

I was also surprised by the temperate climate of San Jose. The high temperatures never reached 80F/26C during my stay and there was always a nice cool breeze. The nights were actually chilly.

At Zona Blue, I sampled Suzy and then settled in with Klarissa. Suzy has had some good reports in this forum. I thought she was OK, but not great. She is nice looking and I can understand that some would be happy with her. I was also attracted to this (relatively new?) Klarissa. She has nice natural tits, great legs, fine ass, reasonably flat stomach, and beautiful skin. She is in danger of becoming a little too wide in the hips, but currently she looks very nice. She is in great shape for having two childen. During my visit, I found that I wasn't very attracted to many of the others in ZB, so I had several sessions with Klarissa including some 2 hour sessions and one TLN. She doesn't do BBBJ (not even with tip), but otherwise her manner is very nice. I think we had a very good chemistry. I like taking things very slowly, and she absolutely did not rush things. And she kisses forever. A very nice, unrushed, GFE experience, but not a PSE-type experience.

I also wanted to try the infamous Blue Marlin bar, and I went there in the early afternoon of my second day. I was soon in the company of a very very pretty Nicaraquan girl who called herself Joanna. (I was also approached by several other chicas who did not interest me.) Joanna was very friendly, and after about ten minutes, the negotiations began. She started at cien, but I held firm at cincuenta. I didn't really feel like this chica was a must. She finally agreed to the $50, but some of the friendliness was lost in the process. For some reason, I felt funny about taking Joanna back to ZB, so we went to a short time hotel around the corner from DR. The cost for the "room" was 4000c plus 500c for a condom. By this time Joanna had completely changed from friendly/sweet to business/professional. She provided full service, but not exactly with a smile. I know that various members of this forum negotiate the finer details of a session, but I personally don't care for that approach. I guess I will sometimes pay the price for not dotting the i's and crossing the t's.

During the days, I walked all over the central part of the city visiting several of the mongering spots (New Fantasy, Bar Idem, Sportsmen's Lodge) but not partaking. I visited a few of the cultural attractions. I recommend the subterranean museum of culture and the national museum. Both are located on Avenida Central within easy walking distance. I was completely ignorant of Costa Rican history, and now... well I am no longer completely ignorant. I found the displays of recent Costa Rican history (in the national museum) to be particularly interesting. Finally I visited the mercado central, also on Avenida Central. I highly recommend this window into the everyday lives of working class Costa Ricans.

During the nights, I typically had dinner around 19:00. I had originally planned to visit some of the bars and strip clubs, but for some reason, I decided against this. I didn't feel very adventurous in San Jose at night when the city takes on a rather mean and deserted look. It would have been nice to be able to return to a hotel (e.g. Sportsmen's Lodge) where there was nighttime activity, but, alas, this was not possible at ZB. Live and learn.

Here are the links to the maps that I used for navigation in San Jose:

http://www.adultcostarica.net/
http://www.dongordo.com/dongordoSJmap.php
http://www.hotel-presidente.com/archivos/Downtown_San_Jose_Attractions.pdf

ZB also has a supply of excellent San Jose street maps available to anyone who visits there. They are on the table to the right of the reception desk.

As I said earlier in this post, everything started to shutdown on Thursday, the last full day of my visit. Since ZB was one of the few spots still serving alcohol, it became rather busy prior to closing at 18:00. I finished my last session with Klarissa around 17:00, and I wandered down to the bar for a final beer or two. This is when I met the young, sweet, crazy Elizabeth. She is also from Nicaraqua. I really liked her and I felt sad that fate had left me with no time to get her into the sack. ZB was closing soon and I was still spent from my session with Klarissa. I threw caution to the wind and asked Elizabeth to spend the night with me, even though I knew I had to get up very early to catch my 6AM flight. But Elizabeth said no. She had to care for her child. So we said good-bye and parted. I returned to my room, but I was very restless. Soon ZB would be closed and deserted. And all of San Jose was closed and deserted. There was still some daylight left and I decided to go out to try to find a place to eat. As I walked out of the door of ZB, there were still some girls there chatting and waiting for cabs. Elizabeth was still there. I impulsively asked her to go to dinner with me. She made a quick phone call and then she accepted. Great. But where to eat? All the restaurants were closed. I thought that the restaurants in the large hotels might still be open, so we made the short walk to the Holiday Inn. Under normal circumstances, I would never want to take a date to a Holiday Inn for dinner, and I was a bit concerned about the chica friendliness of the place. But we had no problems. Elizabeth knew that we were getting a few stares, so she stroked my arm with her fingertips and rubbed my leg with her foot. She knew I was a little embarrassed and she was loving it. After dinner we walked to a cab and she asked me to come over to see her place. Without any good reason that I can put my finger on, I felt timid about this and I declined the invitation. Instead, I spent the rest of the evening in the deserted ZB in the middle of the deserted city of San Jose. Without a woman. And without so much as a single beer. [Please note that Elizabeth is not the real name of this girl. I decided not to run the small risk of getting her in trouble with ZB management. Her actions with me were probably against ZB rules.]

Aside from the lonely ending and the rookie mistakes, I feel positive about my short visit to San Jose. I would like to give it another try. I have learned a few things. I know that my next visit will be more successful. And I want to fuck Elizabeth...

Sounds like you had an interesting experience. Sorry to hear about your $80.00, but just think how much more you could have lost going home with this "Elizabeth" before knowing her better, and being seen with her at ZB.
I have found that it is much safer to at least stay on neutral ground for a while.
I will be there this Thursday and will give your love to Elizabeth!!!

Do you have a photo? i don't want the love to go in the wrong place!!!

Rex,

You have to File a official complaint with your bank and they try to collect the money, if the banco does not respond on time they send you the money (your bank) the same thing happend to me in Jaco, It took months but got my $300 back bueno suerte.

Rex, great report. I too recently made my newbie trip and made a few rookie mistakes. I'm not all that surprised the ICE lady "took ownership" of your situation. I found Costa Ricans in general to be really nice folks. Yes, that includes MOST cab drivers.

What you say about San Jose after dark is so true. It's the single thing I did not like about San Jose compared to most cities I have visited. It simply is not a good place to walk around at night, it gave me a feeling of confinement. I always took cabs at night to specific places.

Thanks again for the report, sounds like you had a pretty good time. I hope you get to conclude your business with Elizabeth on your next trip. ;-)

Negotiations had nothing to do with it. What are you going to do, offer extra for "service with a smile?"

I have learned many methods that I use to make the chicas feel comfortable, put them in a good mood, and do
everything I can to see that they have fun, too.

Plus, I talk to them quite a while before pulling the trigger, so that I can make my best judgement on their personalities.

Despite all that, there is always one or two every trip that go sour once they are back in the room.

Most are friendly, many enjoy their work, but some don't. And never will.

Once I had a chica explain her [CodeWord140] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140) poor attitude by saying "To me it's just a job."

I answered "Find new work, your not any good at it. You're fired."

For the great report. As a newbie myself, preparing for a San Jose trip, you gave me some great tips for getting around and keeping it in perspective. Thanks for the map links.

I've used the ATM in the Del Ray lobby many times and never had a problem.
Also, you can interchange dollars and colones at the casino, usually with pretty decent rates.

The one recommendatrion I do make is, notify your bank where you're going and what dates you'll be there. I had my card cut off on my first trip to CR, luckily is wasn't until I returned.

Hey I am headed back to CR late May (2 yr absence) and I am looking for this girl? Is she still working? I have had fellow CR mongor tell me she is still working but I just want to be sure, this is the only picture I have and I just found it. She was (might still be) a good provider. Hey can anyone tell me any information and how much she is charging these days? I use to be a regular with her long sessions very GFE (all day or night). Usually 150 for the session. Let me know if you have seen her or done her (LOL)

thank you guys for helping me plan this trip.

couple of good friends and i rented from an airport hotel and rove to the city. first hit zb around 2 pm. hey, i thought i read this forum extensively but still missed the fact that if you stay at zb you get unlimited pops for $20/each. however, i don't think i would have stayed there.

my first take out is clarissa (?). face is a 6 but body is a 8.5. very good service. she showered with me before and after. bbj, daty, mish, doggie. nice. i love the ceiling mirrors.

my friend took maria and was in love with her.

i took kathy from nicaragua. she is a bit shy and not overtly friendly..may be if my spanish was better she would have eased up. in the room she did not shower with me. she loved being kissed on her neck and ears. she melted. i felt guilty, almost like a ****, because she looked like she is 17. she said she is 20. ok then..i got on with a daty which she enjoyed. cbj and the standard stuff.

we had the taxi waiting, who later took us to the massage place two blocks down to new fantasy. here they do not do 30 minutes and it is $43/hr. the have more of a thailand style fish bowl type setup. there was a hottie who is tall, fair and was wearing a black woolen hat. you could not pass this one. my buddy took her and he had a great time. we did not find much choice there so we left our friend there and went back to zb for another session.

all of us later drove to idem which was dead at 5 pm on saturday. the taxi took us back to the hotel.

btw: i promised one of you that i will report on tango india. i am so sorry. i was dog tired and did not go out the last night. i still regret not checking out del ray and ti. oh well, there is always a next time

You were had by the Taxi my friend. I am sure others will chime in.

Its too bad because NF is one of the better deals in the Gultch.

Better luck next time. Any don't be afraid to walk around the city its great exercice and you don't get clipped by the taxi's looking for a cut of your action.

I visited San Jose in March and went to Zona Blue four times. This is a summary of my experiences. On each visit there were from about 6 to 12 girls with fewer before noon. Some 7+ but most 5 or more. Note that Visa charges in US dollars at Zona Blue do not get converted to Colones and there is no extra charge. The $53 gets billed to a Florida USD account.

My favorites first, gave these girls generous tips.

Yirla. She is speaks excellent English, is very pretty (a facial 9 for me), about 5’ 3”, dark hair and lovely tetas (C-cup). She will not DFK but will do BBBJ for agreed extra (I gave her $20). Very responsive, loves nipple play and fingering of pussy. Lots of enthusiasm while I was in her. Seems to prefer doggy. Highly recommended. Works Wednesday to Saturday and maybe Sunday. You have to be patient to get her because she is very popular.

Christine. No English. Tall (5’ 8” or 5’ 9”), blonde and good looking (a facial 7 for me), nice tits. Very playful, flashed her tits in hallway and rubbed my crotch and DFK in the bar . In the room after the shower, she was all over me – DFK and then right to BBBJ without my even asking. Begged me to eat her pussy and seemed to have 2 orgasms from DATY and fingering. Then wanted me to cum in her mouth or on her face during BBBJ. Did CIM. Amazing enthusiasm. Highly recommended. Works Thursday to Saturday and maybe Sunday.

Pamela. She is speaks excellent English, is pretty (a facial 7 or 8 for me), about 5’ 3”, dirty blonde hair. Playful attitude. In the room, she was eager to please – DFK and BBBJ without my even asking. She loved to do BBBJ and was very good at it, she never wanted to quit. She would finger her clit at the same time. A very sexy girl and lots of fun. I am and older guy (67) and sometimes have trouble cumming as I did that day (due to fatigue). I wanted to quit after about 40 minutes but she said “just relax and let me do the work”. So it was a slow and very please BBBJ with well lubricated hand action and gentle tongue play at the tip. Very enjoyable. She kept right at it until the full 60 minutes was past. Highly recommended.

Now the bad experiences at Zona Blue, early in trip.

Valerie. Cute, short brunette with no English, As soon as we got in the room she asked for a tip. I managed to communicate the fact that “tip after”. No enthusiasm at all, At time she just lay looking at the ceiling during missionary. She did not get a tip.

Veronica. Cute, short blonde with no English, Again, asked for a tip as soon as we got in the room. This time I was wised up. I got dressed and went out to the front desk and said that I wanted to find a different girl. No problem. So I went back to the bar and hooked up with Christine.

These ZB experiences were over a 3 week period since I was traveling around. Talked to the manager at the end and he told me that the “tip before requests” issue had been discussed with the girls and they would no longer do it. That is a small blessing but the fact that the above girls had been doing it indicated an attitude problem to me.

Had one experience with Del Raye girl. Stunning (a 10) blonde Tica, about 5’ 6”. Took her to my hotel room. Lovely to look at but a bit of a disappointment in bed. Moderate enthusiasm.

Excellent post. This is the key to it all. Do not regard the girls as "providers" of sexual services, but as people. Treat them like non paid dates with whom sex is certain. Don't engage them until you feel there is some chemistry between you. Tell them they are pretty. See how they respond. Some gentle touches or caresses, light kisses first to see if they respond positively and affectionately. If they don't, you can pretty much guarantee that it will be all downhill in the bedroom.

Needless to say, if you smell bad, have bad breath, smoke when she doesn't, and so on, or if she needs large amounts of alcohol to go with you, you are more likely to have negative results. So have good hygiene, dress nicely, be polite, polish your shoes, and you will get hotter sex just like momma told you and you never believed it.

Just wanted to share my last trip with the members. Back round on me. This was my 15th trip. I am not a drunk asshole looking for trouble, I got to san jose for the girls, to gamble a little and mostly get away from the states. Out of the 15 trips I would rate my trips to good to great. Yes I have run into the bull shit girls, the 2 girls that promise a great show. Then nothing. I am mostly cheap. Out of all my trips I have spent 100 only once and she stayed until noon the next day. So with that being said. I really don't shop at the delrey (mostly a meeting place) so on my last trip I was at the rey playing tute and started talking with a gringowholives there. Nice guy and he asks 'you go anywhere else 'I say sure, I like the tico bars and cheaper pussy. Off we go. Molina Rojo. We both like the place. Its about 12:15 am and the place is ok. I am looking for agirl I met a few days before and we made a date to meet there on sat night.

She isn't there or in a room with a guy. I say letsgonext door. Arachadias. (spelling) I like it there. Mostly18 to24 year olds. He says he is going back to the Rojo and I tellhim I will see him there or back at the Rey. After about 15 mins. I am ready to go. If you been to these places both have a bouncer at the door. And that side of the street seems very safe or atleast ok. When I leave I walkover in front of the Rojo asits a better placeto catch a cab. I kid you not I am waiting for 10 to15mins fora cab. Nothing or they are full. The crack kid I is trying to wave one down fot me. And the cabs are trying torun him over. I tell him to stop.

I look acrossthe street andsee a hot girl standing next to the bar no one ever goes in. She looks back then out of the corner of my eye I see 2 young guys who look out of place and I catch one look at me. I size them up asbeing bad guys. And I don't cross the street for the girl. I go back in the Rojo to find my friend and he must be in the room with a girl. I go backoutside and the 2 guys are nowhere tobe seen and the girl is sitting on the curb. Still no cabs and I say. Looks ok to cross. I do! I say Hello, to the girl and 2 seconds later 2 guys are on me (I don't need to look to knowwho they are) the are both pulling out knives as long as your arm and I have one touching my neck andone in my ribs. They are yelling "money, money " I stayed calm. Don't know how but I did. I felt they only wanted my money which they took 45, 000 colonades. The the that took it ran. That leftme with only one in my face. He stuckhishand in my back pocket and grabbed my wallet. I said NO GIVE IT BACK. He looked inside seen no money. And I said agaim 'GIVE IT BACK' he lookedand seen ihad a cheapwatch on and said watch or pointed to it. I said ok. He helpout my wallet and I grabbed it and threw my watch down the street. He ran after it. And it was over. Maybe 2 mins. Thegirlnever moved. Can't say she was in on it? Went back to the Rojo and the bouncer gave me1000 see to get back. Cool of him. Maybe 30 peoplewatch it go down and none of them moved. I felt I did the best I could with what happen. My buddy see'sme at the rey about 45mins later and said he heard about it and said there were cops allover the place. I played cards untill 7. 00 am that day and won 480. 00 as fate would have it. But has it change me. Yes I would say. My nezt trip is to sousa as I need a break from san jose. Hope me sharing helps someone out. Asit sucks when it happens to you.

Just got back from C.R. and would like to share a couple of thoughts with the forum. First of all let me thank those that have contributed to the forum with great info. It made it easy for me to catch up with what has been happenning in C.R.

I have not been to San Jose since 2005. I noticed that back in 2005, about 25% of the Blue Marlin ladies were Colombian. I would say that number has risen to over 50% easy. Seems most of the ticas have moved over to the Key Largo spot.

Spoke to a couple of Colombianas who think the market is even tougher now because there are so many Colombianas. So it even effects them to a certain extent. Just found that to be interesting.

A couple of Colombianas did share with me some very interesting stories from their daily experiences with customers. Some of these ladies make big.....big money. But this only pertains to a particular clique. To their credit, they look amazing. But they are all business. They are hardcore pros with alot of savy negotiating skills. They don't even realize how good at business they really are. Hell, I really do not go in with high expectations with these ladies. They talk a big game as for what they promise to do once inside the room, but they provide very mechanical service. Ofcourse, there are some exceptions. I usually stay away from them.

Ticas have a better reputation for better service, but even then its not a 100% PROOF thing either. A few years ago, I think Ticas were always a safe bet. But not anymore. But generally speaking, they still are great providers. Very sweet and kind.

I found Zona Blue and New Fantasy to be good value for the money as for service. But its really hit and miss as for nice looking ladies.

Overall I found things to be alot more expensive than a couple of years ago. But its still a decent deal.

C.R. use to be my old stomping grounds for partying. I first went during the early 90's. This time around, I found it to be oversaturated with herds of men willing to pay whatever. So I do not find it to be anywhere near as fun as it use to be. Yet, I still had a wonderful time. I since have moved on to other places such as Brazil, Colombia and Argentina. Those places are leaps and bounds better than C.R. Just my opinion based on my personal experiences. But i still think Ticaville is a fun place. Especially for daytime activities.

Just my two cents. Pura Vida!

Just my two cents. Pura Vida!Once you break the ice with a Colombiana it CAN be quite good however most mongers are not going to put in the time require that is needed for that and quite frankly why should we?

Part of CR appeal is that it is close to the US and only about an 3 to 4 hr plane ride(of course that depends on where you are coming from as well) and cost about $500. From my city in Texas all the countries that you mentioned are at least an 8 hr plane ride and would run in at least about $700.

I say CR when you only have a few days and other places like Brazil when you have some time.

What has happen to this area. Let's review, about a month ago I posted that I got robbed by 2 tico's with knives as long as your arm. Not even one responce to my post (had 2 I'm's. Thank you) there are far and few reports with not much being said about trips, girls, or what is going on. This was a great info site as it really helped me on my first few trips and I have met some great guys from it. With my trip to the D. R. In about 40 days I can find at least 10 posts every day for the D. R. With photos, why can't we get that passion back into the san jose area. Hell I got robbed and I still love the place. Also this site has great info on the asian areas I plan to go to in nov. But san jose will always be like a second home to me (living in florida) its such a easy trip. Lets keep San Jose section alive and up to date!The biggest reason that the CR board has fallen off IMHO is the wave that has hit internet marketing and that is niches. Little small areas of interest that people are passionate about and will pay cash for goods and services for that niche.

There are several niche monger boards. A very large(and good one) specializes in CR has pretty much cornered the market on mongering for CR.

Oh by the way Chili next time keep your eyes open because all the signs were there that some thing just "ain't quite right". However it appears that you were thinking with the little head and he was making so much "noise" that for a few moments you were confused that is until the knives made and appearance and then the "little head" was not making a sound!

Meh, its not so great. Last post of substance was some odd weeks ago.
I just think there isn't much to say about CR that hasn't already been said. If you're looking to have an unsatisfying $100 experience, buy into a real estate pyramid scheme, or stagger around drunkenly and get taken in by any number of resentful, knife-wielding locals then CR is the place for you.

Need your help to get Hotel Morazon number. I tried their direct phone number 011-506-2-222-4622. It does not work.

Thanks in advance for the info.

I don't know about the last part of your statement about the knife-wielding locals because I have spent as much as 5 weeks in CR walking very late at all over the place hell even down to Castro's and never had an problem. Well unless you count the tranny that keeping grabbing my package on my way back from Muses at that park behind the Key Largo this ONE time but i digress.

Other then that Xion your comments are spot on.

I've walked around San Jose at all hours of the day and night and never had a problem. And as for "unsatisfying" $100 experiences, can I suggest that maybe it's your own fault in some cases. I for one have had some great $100 experiences in SJO, and many for less than that as well.

Costa Rica is a great place to kick back and have fun. And it's a great mongering spot too. As for getting ripped off, remember the immortal words of W.C. Fields. "You can't cheat an honest man."

In the same price bracket as an SJO ticket, St Maarten, Aruba, Curacao are nice.

The thing that always struck me about SJ was how unfriendly the majority of the locals were. The resentment is almost palpable. I can't say I blame them.

I just came back from a weekend trip to San Jose. Quite interesting in terms of mongering, it was very useful all the reports but I will try to share some of my learnings,

Arrived to SJO during the afternoon, my first visit to the country, so I tried to do what I usually do when arriving to a new country: buy a sim card to have a local cel number. Couldn't find any booth at the airport to buy it. Surprise. The telecomm industry is totally state owned. And the unefficiencies are very clear: no blackberry service, no cel phone numbers and very expensive roaming service. Ok. Not big deal.

I did my reservation for the Holiday Inn which is walking distance from the Hotel del Rey (did this because I used my priority points). Indeed it was close, but for sure it is not for a walk after 7-8pm, better take a taxi ($2dollar).

Hotel del Rey is just what everybody has said in the forum: Disneyland for mongers. I arrived about 7:00pm and there where about 100 girls. All styles and all willing. There I found that regardless of what has been said in the forum. Bargaining is not an option. Or at least is not regarding the cuties. US$100 is the norm.

I found a nice Tica, and make the proper arrangements. Went to my hotel and I found that all girls must register at the front desk and this is the norm for almost all the hotels. Good for me.

She was good, cbj, lk and a nice attitude.

Finish what we did and went back to Del Rey (I was starving), went to Restaurante del Rey (in front of HDR) and found that aside is a club called Cayo Largo (or something like that). Packed with girls (looking for business) with live music and the chance to dance with the girl of you preference.

Met a Colombian girl at Cayo Largo. Nice but to focus on the business. She was pushing while I was looking to know if she will be having a good attitude during the sex. She push so much that I decide to skip, took it as a signal that she could have been very mechanic.

Went back to HDR and found a couple of other Colombians (they told me that about 80% of the girls are from Colombia), I close the deal with Jessica and had a great time with her (still cbj and lk which looks like the norm also)

Great first day in SJO. Went to sleep with a big smile and a tired dick.

Next morning I found that the hotel was charging US$50 dollars per girl. So far my account was US$100. Cancelled the rest of my reservation and found a room at Sportsmen's lodge (again thanks to the forum)

Sportsmen is good, the rate was very attractive (US$59) against HDR ($90), and they don't charge for any girl (HDR charges US$10). It is 4-5 blocks away from HDR but still not reccommended for a walk, take a cab.

My room was very noisy, (probably that's why it was the only available).my reccommendation will be. If you plan to stay in Sportsmen be sure to make your reervation well in advanced. There are some room in the new ale that are quite nice. The room El Rey is quite big with a kitchenette, this one and Las Palmas are the best rooms (nice and quiets). Second alternative will be Ilusion and Hermosa. (Free wireless internet and continental breakfast also counts)

Took a short tour around SJO. Lots of traffic, nothing really interesting. Probably the most interesting thing was the Cow Parade that is now in SJO.

HDR was 90% gringos, this is a pretty gringo friendly environment, where all the staff speaks English and the girls either speaks or knows the basics. Same in sportsmen where I found that the chicas speaks much better English.

Tested the Sportsmen's policy about no charge for girls and it was true!

Overall, it was a nice trip. Lots of girls. Nice girls. Paradise for mongers. Couldn't find no GFE nor BBBJ but still good service

BTW, I found that they were selling cuban cigars. Not sure if they were original (most probably not) but if you want to take a nice present for somebody (very well packed) they were selling a nice wood box with 30 Cohibas (with seals that looks original) for US$100

Hope this helps anybody and hope you enjoyed as much as I did

Salud!
