Meet up tomorrow.we can discuss your old Adelita gf's and where have all the U. S.. Sw's gone.Maybe but I like to fish solo when I'm in Tijuana just many girls to see but who knows if I get there tomorrow I send you a text.
I dumped that old GF do you still remember her ?She still working in AB she did her Lipo and she changed her name like 10 times since then.
Brown can't get his dick up anymore. I can't believe this guy dated Linda Ronstadt in her prime what a waste. Also you have all these old skank married women in Sacramento that don't want their husbands to go out to get fresh younger pussy so they always looking to introduce new sex laws and Brown signs everything. If you want a change and you love freedom you must vote Republican. Trump likes sex and good taste in women the guy is a genious.It's a lot more complicated than that. While I definitely believe in legalization of things like marijuana (I don't smoke) and online poker (I play a lot), this isn't as simple as you make out. If women's voices had as much power in politics as you seem to think, we wouldn't have so many states restricting abortion rights, a notorious feminist issue. While I would say I definitely lean toward legalization of prostitution in the United States, it's not a cut and dry issue. I do wish, like you do I'm sure, that there was a dialog on this issue, and that those who believe it should be legalized weren't demonized as perverted sickos, they way they seem to be now.
As for voting Republican as a path to legalization, especially on the national level, I think you're dreaming there. The religious right has way too much power for it to happen. Even liberals, who tend to be pretty feminist are against it. The only real voting block that is likely to support it are libertarians.
I can't decide if I should take my good phone vs my cheap phone. My plan works only with my good phone I can call text from to Tijuana using the international data plan. Now the cheap phone is not activated it only works with WhatsApp app where internet is available. So I need to have internet if I want to call or text a girl from my Tijuana hotel room. Anyway do you guys feel comfortable taking your nice mobile phone or it's not a good idea?
I have insurance but I don't think it covers lost or stolen I can't remember if it covers international either.I've never had any problem bringing my cell to Tijuana. I try to wear pants with secure pockets, especially the one with big side pockets, which helps prevent my belongings being in between me and chicas' ass.

A damn good political analysis.
Looks like the feminists, fundamentalists, religious right, conservatives, liberals, gays and lesbians, Black Lives Matter, NAACP, KKK etc. Have been going strong, pushing their agendas for decades.
Meanwhile the masculinity and most average Joes in the US have been too busy dating Ms. Rosey Palm.

In France 24 today (November 3 2016) : http://www.france24.com/en/20161103-body-left-hanging-bridge-mexicos-tijuana.
TIJUANA (MEXICO) (AFP) -.
A man was found hanging under a pedestrian bridge in Tijuana, a Mexican city bordering the United States where drug-related violence has resurged, authorities said Thursday.
The victim hung from a chain with his hands and feet tied when he was found on Wednesday, said Jose Manuel Yepiz, spokesman of the Baja California state prosecutor's office.
A threatening message was left on the body. It is the second time this year that someone is hanged from a bridge in Tijuana.
Such gruesome scenes were more common between 2006 and 2009, when the city endured a turf war between the Arellano Felix crime family and the Sinaloa drug cartel.
Homicides are on the rise again in the Pacific coast city, with more than 700 murders so far this year, compared to 670 in 2015, according to official figures.
The violence is now attributed to battles between the Sinaloa gang and the Jalisco New Generation drug cartel.

The locals were complaining about lately violence not many visitors the alley was slow I came out from AB about 1:30 am for tacos at the corner by Hk and went to oxxo everything very calm and quiet not a good sign. Also I know the smell of gun powder and you can smell it outside. Be careful Guys. Also about a month ago there was a shoot out between the police and two guys with Assault rifles and later 2 dead cops and the guys were atrested later. This happened righ on Revolucion same corner where the big taco stand is located about 50 feet from Hk club.

I'll be heading down south tonight. Can anyone recommend a place to park overnight on the San Ysidro side that would be safe and not too expensive?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.Weekends are expensive anyway you look at it. There is one cheap lot next to the Burger King almost at the last trolley stop that charges $6. 99. Good Luck finding a spot there. Otherwise there is Border Station Parking which is just to the right as you exit off the 5 freeway $25 until 10 am the next day. Over 10 am and you pay another $25.
That's how it goes on the weekends.
Or you can chance your car at a trolley parking lot close to the border and take the trolley the rest of the way in. Overnight parking is allowed for 24 hrs FREE but nobody is there to watch your car.

So if you are not back before 10 am by Friday be prepared to pay $32 and for a two day weekend $50 it's insane we should call the company to complain or report them to BBB.

Remember guys, the holidays are almost here.
The Mexican police have families and friends that they need to buy presents for, and they do not get paid much.
What this means is, you are much more likely to be targeted from now until after New Year's day.
Keep some cash hidden, don't carry any kind of pocket knife or pills, and remember: Mexican law does allow stops and searches for no reason.
If you do get stopped and taken somewhere for a 'discussion' in the police car, remember that sometimes they are negotiable and won't take all your cash. On the other hand, others will ask you to go to an ATM machine and take out as much money as you can.
Have a nice holiday!

E Beyer is 1 block East of the main drag, San Ysidro Blvd. , behind the Wells Fargo bank and the Rodeway Inn, which is only half a block North of the JIB.
Every time I walked through that street I found new broken glass on the street, IE. Cars broken into. Don't know if the situation improves now, but if you have an older car, I don't think they would break in.
I'll be heading down south tonight. Can anyone recommend a place to park overnight on the San Ysidro side that would be safe and not too expensive?

That coast line has some of the most beautiful beaches, with crystal clear water, golden corral sand, teeming with abundant sea life of all kinds.
Mayan ruins are mixed in the verdant jungle way out to the beaches.
There are a couple strip bars along the main road from Cancun down South to PDC. Girls are expensive in that area at least for the tourists. There have to be venues for locals with pretty girls at Tijuana prices.
Any bros who have local info re where to find bars like Hong Kong or Adelita along the coast line in Quintana Roo, please share.

The owner responded that, since his lot is now closer to pedwest than any other parking, he charged more since the mexican walk way to pedwest was finished in Sept. And that he's price gouging blah blah, which is true, be / see this is not considered a necessity for life and there is no emergency. Nothing much can be done about it. It's his lot, he now has the prime location with border station parking being the closest to pedwest so you must pay for the convenience. Supply and demand. I sure miss uefa parking lot.

So you are stuck Paying his gouging price or flipping a you-turn in traffic Hell. Maybe someone can complain about the intentional concealment of pricing.
An alternative is to park behind Jack in the Box. It was $7 every 8 hours. But at least they're doing honest business.

But at least they're doing honest business.With the loss of the UETA lot, I park behind the Jack in the Box almost every visit. Only problem is sometimes you must wait a few minutes for a full lot to open a space for you. With the addition of the Ped West, this lot may become less popular; that's fine with me.
Well if the owner is a greedy bastard let's get ready for an increase again and again there's not many places where you can park overnight. I'm thinking is probably cheaper parking closer to SD and take a cab round trip.Just wait until December. Not only is he close to Pedwest but also Las Americas Outlet Mall. I think last year he was charging weekend rates for weekday parking because of the shopping overflow. That was when UETA was still open.

.You can just tell the attendant you made the wrong turn and you want to exit he cannot hold you against your will. If those attendants give you a hard time grab your cel and call the cops and tell them they are holding you and your car but you shouldn't have any problem making a you turn inside the lot.

I have been leaving my ATM card in SD lately. It keeps me from over spending and I feel more comfortable not having it if cops go through my wallet. Better to not show them an opportunity.

Yes, real world. No ATM experience. 3 separate motorcycle policia shake downs and 1 actual ticket within the past 2 years. All ended in cash bribes. The first was $40.00 and the second two were $20.00 each. One of them, I went to see the judge (the ticket one). The police station where the judge was located was south of HK within a few blocks.

As far as I can tell this is an urban legend right up there with the donkey shows.I'm not sure if it still happens but I did experiance it about 12 years ago. I was standing in line triing to get out of MX. It was probably my 2nd trip to Tijuana. A group of six 18-21 year olds where next to me and drinking a little but not loud and obnoxious. All of the sudden three cops jump out and grab three of them plus me, put us in cuffs (chain gang style) and pussed us in the back of a compact cop car. The "kids started to panic, I was no pro at this but I know the game. After about two blocks of driving I asked if we could settle this now. The driver slammed on the brakes so hard we nearly flew through the windshield. I told the kids to not panic and not offer anything. They demanded $120 but we only had $40 between us (I had a little more stashed on me). After about ten minutes of negotiations they were ready to settle for $50 and I was willing to pitch in another $10 ($30 total from me). One of the guys was nearly in tears, and said he had an ATM card. The cops spoke very poor english and didn't hear him. I toldd him to shut up and not to worry. About then two more cops show up with the other three freinds (two girls and one guy). They tried to extort money out of them too. One of the stupid girls loudly asks about the other guys ATM card. With that, all negotioations ended. He give the card to the girl and off she goes with the TJPD. After about an hour (probably much less) they return and we are released. Turns out they took $650 from his account (all he had I'm sure). We are released and the dumb azz kids are feeling lucky they did not go to jail. I expalined again what they did wrong but I don't think they will ever be back. In all, it took five crooked (normal Tijuana cops) to get $690 from us. This whole ordeal took about three hours and I was very late getting back to LA (I was at a conference). I started jogging back to my car and stepped in a pothole and sprained my ankle so bad it took nearly a year to recover. It took me five plus years to return. After I RTFF enough I made it back during another conference, this time in San Deigo. I had a great time but hated the lines getting back, but I did return one more time that week. I have sense gotten my Sentri card, RTFF, and numerous more trips I feel I have at least exceeded the novice level (If I could just speak Spanish)! Moral of the story for newbies. Don't panic and don't show cash if it can be avoided. Also, never carry an ATM card around unless it is well concelled.
I'll be back Dec 12-14, hoping for girls needing Christmas money LOL.

A.Thanks for the boots-on-the-ground information. Very interesting. What a bunch of nitwits! You never offer your ATM card. I'm surprised it let them withdraw so much.
Once in 12 years isn't much of a trend. I wonder if anybody else has any personal experience? In my 5 or 6 jackups they've never asked for an ATM card. I usually leave it in my hotel room, but, on occasion, I do carry it. My last traffic stop resulted in no money changing hands, nor did the guy ask about an ATM. They'd have to have a gun to my head to make me cough it up. Back when I would just walk across the border (before SENTRI and 3 hour waits) I would usually leave it in my car, but not because I was all that scared of a cop, but just to prevent myself from being tempted to blow more money than I had budgeted.

When the cop sees you have a wad of MXN, instead of a bunch of Jacksons and Benjamins, their expectations go down. Much better to be out 200 pesos than $20.

Money is money confused? So you came short what $3 dollars.No. A traveler as experienced as you should understand the advantage of using local currency in a foreign country.
Gringos carry around dollars. The cops know that. They like to get their mordidas in dollars. If you use local currency you don't look like the dweeb gringo turista. The cop sees it, he knows you aren't a typical gringo.
I guess you also have difficulty with basic conversion, so I'll help. 200 pesos lately is just over $10, not $17.

If you like to have the last word on this statement it is fine with me but don't tell me cops only take dollar mordidas you're in Mexico and 99.9. % of the currency you see around is the Mexican PESOS. I saw the other day a municipal cop paying his tacos with pesos so I guess the pesos work too. Man you just saying whatever.

I'm not sure if they do it so your girlfriend or wife will find out I know it means something.
This happened to me twice in two different times with two different AB girls. I hate when they do that.

Old members like myself probably remember good ol Country John, Blue Balls and EFjayel.
The last time I read Country John post he was living in Tijuana with his Mexican Girlfriend and he was having fun arguring with KOS and King of Sluts. EFjayel used to post a lot here but I haven't read his posts anymore it is sad to see all of them gone.

So with Trump going to win this election do we think we might have any repercussion in Tijuana especially around our safety being mostly white males?
What a stupid statement cops like cash period. What did you ask them their money preference do they also like new fresh dollar bills too? The reality is They can take whatever you have on you it doesn't matter even your nice watch.
If you like to have the last word on this statement it is fine with me but don't tell me cops only take dollar mordidas you're in Mexico and 99.9. % of the currency you see around is the Mexican PESOS. I saw the other day a municipal cop paying his tacos with pesos so I guess the pesos work too. Man you just saying whatever.Perhaps you're being deliberately obtuse. I don't believe you're English skills are that bad. But I'll break it down for anybody still reading this tripe.
Cops jack up gringos in La Zona far more often than they do in other parts of Tijuana. Anybody who spends any time outside of LZN knows this.
Cops do so because it's a target-rich environment (lots of potential DUI, public intoxication, drugs, etc.) AND because the gringos carry dollars. A $20 or $40 mordida is FAR better than a 200 p or 400 p mordida.
Nobody said the cops only take dollars. They prefer dollars (as do most BG and SG if you hadn't noticed). They look at a gringo carrying lots of dollars differently than a gringo carrying pesos.
Your statement that a cop can do anything, and take anything, is pure BS and smacks of somebody with zero experience in this sort of thing. If a cop could take anything, from anybody, at any time, then NO street in Tijuana would be safe from those predators. The Zona would be a ghost town because every gringo who showed up would be robbed blind, including their "nice watch. "

Mexico's economy will be fine there enemy is not Trump but within inside like there recent governor from Veracruz who stole millions of pesos and fled. Visiting Tijuana will be the same for couple more years and is not going to be cheaper. What Trump wants to do will take years as all the things he plans to do there's laws that prohibit it so it will be a very slow process and also have to consider that if the Mexican economy collapses also affects the USA economy as most companies in Mexico are own by US companies.

But don't buy what you read or hear in the Mexican news. The USA can do just fine without Mexico. Remember those US companies are going to pay big tax fines for taking the jobs to Mexico some of those companies will close down and probably move back to the US to avoid the penalty tax fines.
If US manufacturers decides to bite the bullet and pay Trump taxes they will be force to lower Mexican workers salaries.
Let's not Forget there are many other latin American countries they would be very happy to bring those US factories to their country.
Trump plan is very clear he just wants to bring the jobs back to the USA.
I think the Dollar will go much higher to the peso after Trump takes power.
Mexico inflation will be higher that's great for the Tijuana visitor bringing Dollars but the girls are well trained and they just keep jacking up the prices no matter what currency you have. So dollar goes higher and so are the prices.

So with Trump going to win this election do we think we might have any repercussion in Tijuana especially around our safety being mostly white males?As far as immediate repercussion. I would say no. However if things Trump does that may have a negative effect on the Mexican economy, it could make people more desperate which could increase crime.
I, as gringo looking as you can get was moving around all over the city the day after the election and I was still greeted warmly wherever I went. One thing I did notice during this election year was whether it was the cab drivers or meseros or bar girls everone had an opinion on american politics. I just don't remember it ever being like that before. Only thing that changed from election night to the next day was a slight increase in the amount of pesos you got for your dollar.
Now as far as having pesos in your pocket instead of dollars, so it is less likely you will be robbed by the police, don't know if I buy into that. Plain and simple regardless of what's in your pocket, if you are a gringo and you are in the zona norte you have a huge target on your back.
In about 100 visits to Tijuana in last 2 years, I had just 2 occasions that I encounter with Mexican police.
I am an Asian and anybody can tell easily that I don't live in Tijuana, but I try to minimize my time on Tijuana streets.
My first encounter was when I accidentally cross the border with my car, and I just left my car at HK valet, and enjoyed the night. On my way back I hired HK valet guy for $10. Stopped twice by politia, and they accused me of being drunken, but when I asked "uhhhh, by the way I am not a driver here, right?" . Well they released me. It was really hilarious situation. The valet guy drove until right in front of ramp to the border and went back to HK.
The second one happened just last week, and it was not a pleasant experience at all. I was walking toward ped west at around 5 am, and at the police box on the middle bridge, one male and one female police stopped me, and insisted that I have to go to downtown Tijuana police station and wait for the trial, because I was walking on the public street drunken.
Duh! Never heard of punishment for drunken walking. Anyway they insisted it is on the Mexican law, and I need to talk to the judge. I spent about 30 minutes for arguing with them, nothing worked until I showed them my wallet and gave all I had.
I didn't suggest the bribery blatantly. Asked whether we can find other way of solving the problem.
Luckily I had $10 and 120 pesos. The guy gave 20 pesos back to me. I hugged them and left the scene. Haha.
While arguing with them, they kept emphasize that I should've taken the taxi. Maybe he is partly sponsored by the taxi companies.

Plain and simple regardless of what's in your pocket, if you are a gringo and you are in the zona norte you have a huge target on your back.I had a few conversations with locals about the election. I assured them Trump's commentary was done to win the election. He will enforce immigration laws (as he should) and he will only deport criminals not the workers that are so important to our economy. Basically on par with Mexico.
Everyone I talked to seemed to care more about Mexico than America. After all it was an election for the *US President. What matters is our country. At the same time I hope Mexico continues to be our friend and that we can see eye to eye on a fix for the current situation.
Some hipsters at a cafe automatically assumed I was a Clinton supporter. Wrong Assumption. At least we agreed that Prop 64 (Legal Weed) was a good thing.
If locals don't want Americans in Tijuana that would be more detrimental to them than anyone else.
Mexicans ask me "Did you vote for la mujer o el racista?"
My Tijuana dentist is a highly educated and cultured Mexican. He told me he understands Trump's twisted rhetoric but thinks his supporters are 'even more scary.'
Of course gringo dollars will be always welcomed in the zona but I look for the hostility towards the stereotypical "ugly American" to increase. Those with contempt for gringos feel they have more justification to act on it now.
Don't want to be negative but I see more robbery/ violence towards gringos from both rateros and the policia. Be careful.

Why blaming Trump is the people who voted him because that's what the majority of people of this country wants.
Mexico doesn't let undocumented migrants from central America to stay in Mexico they get deported. Few years ago there used to be beautiful South American Girls working in AB with tourist visa one day the Mexican immigration officers came and took them away. Nowadays you won't find a single non Mexican working in the zona don't believe me ask the bar people.
The bad news for the Tijuana monger is if Trump starts deporting all illegal criminals they will probably end up in border towns like Tijuana Mexicali etc. Tijuana is already full of crime just think about all these criminals walking around you.
Trump said Non criminals illegals are going to be deported too To their country of origin and they need to apply for residence to be allowed to return.
This law is nothing new back in the 1980's Reagan signed the Amnesty and illegal aliens working in US factories were rounded up and deported but they keep coming back, also employers were supposed to ask for green card before hiring someone but no many did. If you want to have an idea how illegals were deported back in the 1980s watch the funny movie Born in East La.
An international border is an entrance to another country. You wouldn't leave your home door open when you're not home because the door is what secures your home from criminals and protects your values it's just common sense.

It would probably look like Cuba within a year.

One of the things that struck me was how I felt that I the "gringo" turista was the economic engine driving the place. It started with crossing the border. I paid taxis to take me to and from. I stayed in a hotel on the Mexican side and took some meals in the restaurant there. I paid to enter clubs like HK Club. I tipped bar tenders and meseros. I bought drinks for chicas. If I slapped one of their bubble butts that cost me a dollar. When I was ready to tap some Mexicana ass I paid the door man a little tip to take the girl to the short-time hotel where I then paid for the room. Then after enjoying me some foreign pussy I paid the tute her money. And on the way out I normally would tip the clean-up boys who prepare the rooms for the next "couple". When I was hungry, I stepped out onto the street to patronize one of the taco stands. And on an on and on! And that was just me! Gringo dollars grease the economic engine that keeps Tijuana running!
Whether you agree with their reasoning or not, Trump and those viewed as his supporters are not popular in Mexico now. This is just reality.

I'm in San Diego getting ready to cross the border. After a few days of wild currency shifts on the market, it seems to have stabilized for the moment close to where it started. Not so much for the currency exchangers near the border. Saw them selling pesos on a range from 18.7 to 17.9. I guess it will be a while till they stabilize, depending on who gambled or bought pesos / dollars during the wild swing.

I am not clear what the business logic is for HK. Stability for the labor? For me it is great.Hong Kong Bar has always used an in-house exchange rate that favors customers spending pesos in the bar (vs spending dollars). At least its always been that way for the most recent 12 years, which is when I began going to Tijuana. Your best source to ask the "why" question to would be the family that owns the bar.
My best guess would be that the family probably would never want someone pointing a finger at them and their policies and complaining that they are favoring foreigners at the expense of Mexican nationals. They may know & like many of their American customers, but I'm speculating that they feel closer ties to their customer base of locals, many of whom likely walk in with lots of pesos and few dollars.
For the Americans that choose to spend dollars in HK while knowing this (rather than getting pesos to spend in HK), you might call them a bunch of different names: lazy, stupid, generous, wasteful, powerful, impatient, care free, resistant, patriotic, spoiled, phobic, proud, or foolish. But they have never been in short supply.

Right after making my post I thought of "guilt-ridden". And stubborn.
Most guys who travel to countries, but only see the P4 P nightlife, tend to vastly overestimate their numbers, and their economic impact. Tijuana is no exception. Guys show up, see loads of other gringos, and naturally think they're more influential than they truly are.
Well, I have news. Tijuana is far more than its pokey little red light district. If the Zona Norte were to disappear tomorrow it would barely be a blip on the economy of Baja California Norte in general, and Tijuana in particular. It would inconvenience some rich bastards, it would put others out of work, it would make some locals very happy. But Tijuana's economy collapsing? That's utter nonsense.
For those board members too frightened to venture south of Primera, I'll help out. You'll find that the Tijuana economy is humming along. You'll find every manner of business you can think of. Doctors, lawyers, car dealerships, restaurants, bars, clubs, antros, parks, the lot. Just like a real city. And, oddly, very, very few depend on the almighty gringo gracing them with their presence. I was in LOS Arcos last night, a upper-mid-range seafood restaurant with excellent food. It was around 8-ish, Thursday. The joint was almost full. Only a couple of empty tables. Guess how many gringos? The same holds true for just about every place you go outside of the Zona Norte and parts of Centro. Tijuana has managed to reinvent itself, and drunken obnoxious spring breakers, running up and down Revu, are no longer necessary.
Tourism still accounts for a chunk of Tijuana's economy, but it's much smaller than days of yore, and those tourists tend to come for the pharmacies, the very reasonable medical care, artsy-fartsy stuff, the great foodie scene, etc. A small percentage come for the ZN.
The elephant in the room is manufacturing. That's what's been driving the local economy for some time now. Loads of crap is manufactured in Tijuana, car parts, medical equipment, electronics, etc. There's something like 500-600 maquiladoras in Tijuana. The question is whether or not Trump's policies will affect these. They're not all American companies, certainly, but many are. If they were to be shut down I think the Tijuana economy would suffer a very significant blow. I'd hate to see that happen.
The upshot is that the Zona Norte isn't driving Tijuana's economy. Far from it. It's a lot like Disneyland, or a sports stadium. It generates a lot of money for a relatively few people. It also really doesn't provide much that can't be had elsewhere, at better prices.

Zona Norte maybe will not collapse because mongers won't stop going there. One way or another Tijuana will turn into a mess when They start the deportation of hundreds or thousands of some serious criminals direct from the California prisons. Have fun in Disneyland.
All those factories you mentioned are what Trump wants to regulate so they will have a choice to stay in Tijuana and pay big chuncks of fines to sell their products in the US or move the buisness back to the US and let the American people and legal immigrants to do those jobs. I guess time will tell.

According to Wiki:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tijuana#Economy.
The leading contributors of economy (for Tijuana) : culinary, manufacturing, and tourism.
For tourism:
Restaurants and taco stands, pharmacies, bars and dance clubs, and shops and stalls selling Mexican crafts and souvenirs are part of the draw for the city's tourists, many located within walking distance of the border. The city's tourist centers include Downtown Tijuana including the nightlife hot spots around La Sexta, Avenida Revolucion, souvenir shopping at the Mercado de Artesanas and Plaza Viva Tijuana, Tijuana's Cultural Center (CECUT) and neighboring Plaza areo Tijuana shopping center, and the city's best known vices, in the form of its legal Red Light District and gambling (Agua Caliente).
According to the description, it is also a major contribution for gringos who frequent clubs.

Ops, my bad.
The upshot is that the Zona Norte isn't driving Tijuana's economy.No it isn't. But gringo cash most definitely is driving the Zona Norte's micro-economy within the greater Tijuana economy itself. I agree with you that Tijuana won't collapse if La Zona goes away. But that doesn't change the fact that American dollars make the Zona Norte go around. That's really my central point.

I remember thinking it presents a whole different picture of the Tijuana economy, that most people don't see.

Before the 2008 passport requirement.
The Liberty walking path between the border, past the McDonalds, Liberty Plaza with many Pharmacies and bars / restaurants playing noisy music, over the foot bridge, to the Mercado de Artesannia, more tacos restaurants (3 for a $1 with $1 beers), Wax Musuem, El Arco, Ave. Revolucion, the Music Plaza ect. Were lively with hundreds tourists and dozens of carts and shops selling trinkets and souvenirs. Now that path is empty, shops and restaurants closed down, the jewelry carts disappeared.
On Ave. Revolucion full of souvenir shops, there are very few gringos in the day time. Most walkers are local Mexicans and their families. Groups of rowdy students and young gringos drinking and talking in bars at night are gone, replaced by local young Mexicans. A few strip clubs were busted a few years back, not sure if they are still open.
Coahuila in La Zona Norte, with its bars and sex hotels, is the only area frequented by Gringos, usually at night. Looks to me tourism in Tijuana is dead, except sex tourism.
This was a few months back, I was in the mood for some onion rings so I walked to carl's jr on constition. Don't know what these amish guys were up to but I had to take a quick snap shot. But this is what tourists look like in the zona.Those are not Amish, they are Mennonites. Mexico has several Mennonite communities. Their primary language is German, but they are Mexican citizens.

In the last five years, the United States has deported record numbers of immigrants, including roughly 250,000 to 300,000 each year to Mexico. Mexico has 15 repatriation points, but one-third of all deportees are usually sent to Baja California, and half come through Tijuana—from 100 to 300 every day, officials here say.

Funny you should mention LOS Arcos. I was there last week on a Wed. Mid afternoon and the place was packed. I remember thinking it presents a whole different picture of the Tijuana economy, that most people don't see. I also thought might as well not even try to come here on a weekend night, probably a hell of a long wait. And as far as I could tell 0. 1 gringo there.
And oh yea the food was great.Two comments like that make me want to try it. Where is it located? Is it a safe daylight walk from zone norte?
Two comments like that make me want to try it. Where is it located? Is it a safe daylight walk from zone norte?No, you can't walk there from the zona norte, the restaurant is in zona rio. The food is outstanding!

http://www.restaurantlosarcos.com/enI went to a restaurant called Arcos in Juarez a few years back. I think they are related. Not sure if this is the one in Tijuana.
I spent Friday night in a cheap (360 MN), noisy, second-floor room at the Leyva, above the Chicago club. It was clean, the fan was nice, and the TV didn't work (but that may have been because I didn't bother paying the deposit for the remote). The bed was a bit stiff, but it didn't sag, and it was big enough for one guy and as many ladies as you can stack in. In other words, if you're looking for "boring but noisy", you'll be in pig heaven at the Leyva.
Before I settled on the Leyva, I tried to find the Mini, which has been reported here as located mid-alley. Either it's well-hidden, unlabeled, or gone. Does anyone know?
My work requires that I bring my car when I go into Mexico.
Does anyone have any experience with the parking lots in the zona?

Is pretty nice, clean quiet. The rooms on Constitucion are larger, some with 2 beds. Costing only $20 a night, it's good for crashing instead of driving back late at night when you are tired and sleepy. But don't know too many street girls who would walk there for sex.
Leyva is usually quiet all night. Don't know where the noise come from. Sometimes the back girls get off work and they can make some noise. Parking costs extra $2. Check it out. The other option is to buy HK's VIP car and park at Pepe for free, worth about $15 a night.
Hotel Mini is at the end of a long corridor next to bar Valentina. If you get a room next to Callejon Coahuila, you can enjoy the free brass band concert all night hehe. The rooms all have wall mirrors. Some girls get turned on big time watching themselves fucked in the mirror.

Reference the photo maps below. Northwest on Coahula next door to La Perla Restaurant Bar. " El Prieto Parking", 24/7 parking lot attendants. The price fluctuates depending on the time. I have never paid more than $5.00. Never had any damage to my vehicle. I have seen high end California plated cars in lot on many occasions. Never have parked at El Prieto Parking after 7:00 pm. The night game I am sure is different. I have parked on the streets around the Bars just to check if I could save a penny. Mistake!

Both Hotel Mini and hotel El Porton are very close to each other on the alley's north sidewalk, with a bar called something like 'El Cariprussa' located in-between them. Both these hotels are maybe more toward the east end of the alley (instead of the alley's center, where La Valentina sits). El Porton has no signage at their entrance, but their address appears right over the entrance inearing overhead as decorative Spanish tiles. It's address is something like 8088 or 8084 appearing overhead as you walk in a very long interior hallway to a desk next to the rear stairway.
The entrance to the Hotel Mini is next to the entrance of the bar sitting between the two hotels. It also had no signage and you walk back through a somewhat covered breezeway to their office window, which is half a stairway lower than street level. Both of these hotels have lower room rates than the Leyva, but ultimately cost more to stay at because of joiner fees. Hotel Leyve does not charge joiner fees if you bring in multiple chicas.

Historically, the girls at Tropical haven't been my type, but someone posted a comment that they now look pretty good. I can now confirm that observation. In fact, there were a couple that were top shelf stuff. That will be my first stop during my next visit to Tijuana.
About 3 years ago I met a young spinner at Hong Kong, she made near zero money because she kept to herself and was a wall flower. Then 2 years ago I met her friend who was also a cute spinner wall flower. Seldom did I see anyone take either of these girls upstairs, they were both excellent performers in the room. Funny thing happened today, they were both in constant demand for drinks and arriba. It must have taken them 2 or 3 years to learn how to play the game, but they both sure have it figured out now.
Today I bought another HK VIP card. While waiting for things to process I noticed the elevator in the north lobby. Never noticed it before today. Sure enough, it was being used frequently. The doors never opened but I could see the floor number display change every now and then.
Today was my first use of PedWest. Just for the heck of it, I timed my walk from Hong Kong to my car parked behind the Jack in the Box: 24 minutes to the Sentri agent (no waiting for me) and a total of 41 minutes to my car. Probably slightly more than 2 miles total walking. Taking a taxi may cut that down to about 1. 5 miles walking or a little less. IMHO, the beautifully constructed Mexican walkway is too narrow. General public to the left and Ready line to the right, Sentri was not labeled but this was one of those situations where you just walk through the middle until you get past the gate where there is a clear walking path for Sentri to the agent. Fortunately, the general public and ready line people stayed enough to the sides to allow a slightly obstructed path down the middle. Having Sentri probably saved me about 2 hours waiting.
I exchanged my dollars for pesos at the exchange place that is a few feet to the west of the south end of the trolley. At the moment I made my exchange the posted exchange rate was 18.159, but the actual exchange rate for me was 18.500. My printed receipt and the money in my pocket confirmed that rate. The posted rate did not change while I was making the exchange. I've noticed this before but had never paid close attention to verify the posted rate didn't change while I was standing there. I guess I got a better exchange rate because I exchanged a relatively large amount ($420). Per OANDA.com, the interbank exchange rate is currently 20.822, so, there is a good bit of margin somewhere. I think next time I'll use my ATM card at a Tijuana bank and pay my bank's $3 foreign ATM fee (or whatever it is). I don't know how these little local places can afford to buy pesos at the 19.1 that was posted today.
One of my problems in Zona Norte is finding places that serve a decent portion of veggies and fruits with meals. My body craves fruits and vegetables on these ZN excursions. I used to buy fresh squeezed juice on the east side of Constitution just north of the alley, but that place is gone. Today I had a good portion of fruit from the street cart on the alley, probably covered with bacteria from poor sanitary practices. Who has suggestions for this problem without me going far from ZN? I have seen HK girls having lunch in high and remote parts of the club, sometimes eating large portions of steamed veggies; I don't know where they came from.
Oh, I almost forgot. I had some good street tacos and got laid twice (one street girl and one HK girl). I have always enjoyed ZN.
Azul or Sonora Grill will stir fry veggies for you. Ask for a minimum amount of butter. Fresh Juice can be purchased across the street from HK alley side at the yellow juice store. Otherwise JUMEX brand juices are just as good if you look for " JUGO " not " Nectar ".

Friday night I took 2,000 pesos from the Scotia ATM next to Adelita. Scotia's terminal fee was 9. 5 pesos. Bank America statement said the withdrawal was $97.84 total, worked out to 20.44 pesos per dollar, no other bank charges.
Why would someone waste time and risk being mugged waiting in line at the Cambios for 18.50 pesos per dollar, when they can withdraw money quickly and safely at 20.44 peso to the dollar at the ATM next to Adelita's door, with an armed Commercial Policia, a few beefy security goons, the huge Tequila mesero with his Pancho Villa hat, the kinky little dwarf mesero, and the continual flow of sexy, young, good-looking half-naked chicas going up the stairs for sex all night with their sexy fragrance wafting behind them?
For fresh vegetable and sea food dishes, walk across Ninos to Cafe China Kim Mon and order their fresh steamed / stir fried veg dishes. I usually have to have a few wingmen to go to Kim Mon as their dishes are huge, twice the portions served in the US. Half a block South of Kim Mon there are a few fruit shops and a market with all kinds of restaurants and vendors inside, worth checking out.
La Zona is very exotic, safe, sexy, juicy, tasty, exciting, satisfying for all senses and very affordable for the mass. La Zona should be the model for developing the New Sexy Society under our new El Presidente and the Republican Congress.

There is an additional charge when your statement arrives from BofA. Everytime I used that ATM, I get a an additional charge of 5. 50-8. 72 depending on how much I withdraw.

Besides Scotia's 9.5-peso terminal fee, I never got billed any other transaction fee for withdrawing from a be o A VISA business debit card. The 9. 5 peso terminal fee is buried in the total amount.
I hold frequent business meetings with clients, creditors, suppliers, directors, investors, stock holders, sometimes even with sexy and horny employees etc. In La Zona's bars. So they are perfectly legitimate business expenses.
I think certain types of be o A accounts, depending on the average balance, may be charged ATM fees.
Withdrawing cash from credit cards, Master Card or American Express, overseas usually incurs a $10 transaction fee plus whatever the terminal charges you.

The noise was music from the club below. And they said "no" when I asked if they had parking.Hotel Leyva (at the their oldest wing) is adjacent to Chicago Club, not above it. The hotel that is above Chicago Club is called Hotel Jalos.
The Leyva's south-most rooms have small bathroom windows that face south, right into the big wall of the Chicago Club / Jalos building. The two buildings are only about six to eight inches apart. If you hear loud music in your Leyva room, it's coming from the Chicago Club next door.
The Leyva has a three story parking structure, more parking than is needed for their 48 room hotel. So they offer fee-based parking to the general public. However they often fill up early in the evening on Fridays and Saturdays, and reach their max.
Rooms in the (relatively newer) 4-story tower have parking included in the cost for the room. The rooms in the 3-story (older, southern, 'jail') wing of the hotel do not include parking in their room rates.

Hong Kong is still my favorite place for watching, but I sure got super services from one of the Tropical girls on Tuesday afternoon. 800 pesos for her plus 160 pesos for an all night room with my HK VIP card got me about 55 minutes of bliss. So good that I tipped 200 pesos. She spoke zero English and I couldn't even understand her name, so I can't give you a name. Thin girl with fake rack and big ass (fake?). Slightly longer than shoulder length straight black hair.
Interesting chat with Sonya in Hong Kong. Her English is perfect and she is interesting to talk to. Amongst other things she said she favors men who don't drink alcohol in the bar because they get drunk too often and then cause problems for her. It would be interesting to know how many girls think the same thing. I'll continue drinking one beer per visit and then water after that.
After walking to PedWest a couple days sago, this time I took the HK limo. Felt much safer. Tipped the driver $3.
Zero wait for anybody at PedWest at about 8 PM Tuesday. Looked like about 2 hour wait on Sunday evening for general and ready (I have GOES). Is PedEast still open? Lots of buildings in that area have been torn down but the limo driver thought PedEast might still be open.
Favorite find of the day was the fresh made juice in the little store across the alley from LC. Excellent stuff for very little money. That will become a regular stop for me. Thanks to Artisttyp for another good tip.

Yes Pedeast is still open. Seeing as how I do not have sentry, I have been avoiding Pedeast due to finding much shorter wait times at Pedwest.
The line at Pedwest can be deceiving. The worst I have seen it was backed up a few hundred feet from where the spiral staircase begins and it was only around a 20 minute wait.

On Sunday evening the general and ready lines started long before the spiral staircase, closer to the up ramp than the spiral down ramp. Very little movement was noticeable while I walked through the masses of waiting people; perhaps 2 or more hours wait. On Tuesday there was no wait for anyone.

Someone here probably a few shares of hotel Leyva, plugging it as a luxury Resort.
I hate to rain on someone else's parade, but hotel Leyva is all walled in with a small concrete courtyard in the center, that looks like a prison's exercise yard.
It feels as exclusive as a maximum-security federal penitentiary. It can also be an inclusive resort if you like prison chow.

The Liberty walking path between the border, past the McDonalds, Liberty Plaza with many Pharmacies and bars / restaurants playing noisy music, over the foot bridge, to the Mercado de Artesannia, more tacos restaurants (3 for a $1 with $1 beers), Wax Musuem, El Arco, Ave. Revolucion, the Music Plaza ect.

True there are lots of Mexican Americans living in Tijuana and drive to work in San Diego in the morning. The new trend finds hundreds young Asians living with their sweetest-looking young girls, setting up families, producing babies.
Every morning thousands of California cars cross the border into San Diego. I know an attorney who lives in Playa and drives to courts all over LA and Orange Counties. Don't know how he hacks all that driving, but he has a sweet, pretty young girl waiting for him every night with her hot meals and her wet, throbbing pussy. Hehe.
Life is good in Tijuana as long as they get along with their cartel neighbors who slit throats and boil off dead bodies in their backyard.

1000 pesos for an hour of hot sex is a goo deal. Define "good service" in details. Did she do DFKs, BBBJ, DATY, act hot and horny like she wanted to fuck your brains out?

Of course they hate rude, useless drunks. If they have to spread their legs in bed, they may as well have a few orgasms.
They also hate the old geezers who swallow a fistful of vitamin V, then fuck them long and hard for the whole hour, trying to bust their 3 or 4 nuts for the night. The poor girls do get sore after fucking a few guys. Don't know how they keep doing it every night. Must be their love and devotion to their jobs. Wish the US executives love their jobs the same way.

It's a free ride to the border, though I typically tip the driver about $3. I've never seen anything to make me think sex in the limo is a common event.

Caught a taxi in front of Hong Kong. Got to la linea and handed the driver 60 pesos before getting out; same as I did on the way to the zona.
No problem coming back the old way. Global Entry so went past the line up to the front of the building where you would see the Mexicans going in to handle their visa stuff. The building that you would get processed in before is what is torn down (see my previous post for pics.) Entered the visa building and read a sign that talked about Ped West being opened and that there are 12 lines there. It also talked about the buses that could take you there. Said this way would have reduced lines. I counted 6 lines but only 2 were operating. The sign said it would be this way for 3 years until the new building is ready. The sign was dated October 2016.

The sign was dated October 2016.I did the same thing, probably a couple hours later.
Like Mr Enternational wrote, the old PedEast has only 6 lanes and can no longer process as many people as it could a few months ago. Sentri people can walk to the right up to the processing building, but once you get to the building you need to wait in line with everybody else. None of that is a big problem.
The problem I had with PedEast was that the traffic getting there from Zona Norte was terrible. It probably took 15 minutes longer to drive to PedEast than it would have taken to drive to PedWest. The last 200 yards of the drive probably took 10 minutes. I should have just gotten out and walked the last little bit.

Then the driver complained saying he does not know why they do not do something about this traffic. He suggested they put a ramp to the left through the woods to the bridge. He definitely is not an engineer; I tell you that.

I used to drop my wingman off on SENTRI lane right at the turnstile gate, so he could go through the Ped East entry on foot.
Now CBP just built a wooden wall with 10-foot high barbed wire fence along the Ped East walk, apparently to prevent people from leaving cars and cut into the pedestrian line.
Anybody knows how far South that wall and fence go? Can you still get in the Ped East line at the foot bridge and giant screen TV?
Hotel Leyva (at the their oldest wing) is adjacent to Chicago Club, not above it. The hotel that is above Chicago Club is called Hotel Jalos.Thanks for clearing that up for me. I had that all backwards. (It was a long day.).

Besides Scotia's 9.5-peso terminal fee, I never got billed any other transaction fee for withdrawing from a be o A VISA business debit card. The 9. 5 peso terminal fee is buried in the total amount.
I hold frequent business meetings with clients, creditors, suppliers, directors, investors, stock holders, sometimes even with sexy and horny employees etc. In La Zona's bars. So they are perfectly legitimate business expenses.
I think certain types of be o A accounts, depending on the average balance, may be charged ATM fees.
Withdrawing cash from credit cards, Master Card or American Express, overseas usually incurs a $10 transaction fee plus whatever the terminal charges you.BofA adds a 3% FX fee to Scotiabank ATM withdrawals. It's deceptive, because they don't charge it at the same time, but rather, as a separate fee that posts overnight on the night after the ATM withdrawal.
The best ATM deal is to use a Schwab Investor Checking account - they offer free ATM transactions worldwide, with no FX fee, and they even refund the added 9.5 peso Scotiabank ATM fee, in fact, they refund all other bank's added ATM fees.

I noticed the personal checking account's debit card was charged $3 overseas transaction fee, but not the business account.

But I do know that a "Schwab One" account is actually two combined accounts that (I believe) just about anyone can open with a $1,000 initial deposit. It is a brokerage account combined with an online checking account and they will automatically transfer available cash funds from the brokerage account into the checking account with no fees to cover checking account overdrafts. Charles Schwab does not require that you maintain any balance after the $1,000 initial deposit. Despite that rule, I did have a monger friend experience Charles Schwab's involuntary closure of his Schwab One Account.
In the first month after opening his Schwab One Account he used the ATM next to Adelitas. A lot!
He wanted pesos in small denominations, so from his brand-new Schwab1 account he made ten or twelve (or more) small ATM withdrawals (which must have cost CS much more in system fees compared to one large ATM withdrawal. Charels Schwab was true to their terms. They refunded all of his ATM fees at the end of the month, then closed his account and mailed him as check for the balance he had in his Schwab1 account. I don't even think they wished him well.
I like to give fellow mongers useful advice. If a fellow poster was asserting that a specific type of account was not waiving ATM fees, or charging a fee I was too clueless to notice, I would at least specify exactly which type of account I thought I was successfully using in order to have a helpful and meaningful discussion instead of just a boastful one.

This is way off topic, but I thought this group might enjoy this story.
My regular routine is to take a taxi from the border to Zona Norte and then take the HK limo back to the border. I don't walk too much these days. I usually engage the driver in conversation and sometimes have some interesting chats. Last Friday's cab ride to ZN was the most interesting.
The driver asked me what I did for a living. I didn't want to seem wealthy and thought it could lead to an interesting conversation so I told him I was just fired an hour ago. I had expected to hear some condolences, but what I got was quite different. He actually offered me a job as a drug mule! Told me I only needed to carry a small bag of pills across the border and deliver them to LA and I would be paid handsomely. Didn't need to worry about border inspections because there would be no weed and the dogs couldn't detect the pills being transported because of the packaging and scented sprays. He did that job for a couple years and was able to buy a Mercedes and pay cash for his $120,000 house in Tijuana. I told him I couldn't do that kind of work, but he insisted that I take his name and phone number. I accepted the information just as he dropped me off at the entrance to AB. If anybody is interested in that job, you will find the information written on the back of a business card at the very bottom of the large AB trash can near the entrance of the bar.
I'm guessing that most of the "taxi cab confession" stories are told by the passengers to the driver. Not so this time.

The two accounts do not have a minimum balance to open them, at least not presently. I opened the pair of accounts with an initial $200 deposit last week. Based on information from other mongers that use it. As I have not gotten my ATM card yet, I haven't yet used it, but I would not be surprised if Schwab involuntarily closed an account that was ONLY used for a large number of small ATM withdrawals in foreign countries. I certainly plan on using my account for other things as well, and I plan on withdrawing at least 1400 pesos at a time (that number was chosen because it gives me 2 x 200 peso notes as well as the larger 500 peso denomination notes).
The BofA Account I was referring to that charged me a 3% FX fee, but no out of network ATM fee was a BofA Advantage tiered checking account. Formerly named a Master Relationship Account. And before that formerly named a Prima account. It's their typical personal account for a preferred customer. But one tier down from a private client personal account. The 3% FX fee is disclosed on the BofA website as applying to all international transactions. But I would not be surprised at all if they waived those fees for their top-tier business accounts, as well as for private client-level accounts (which require at least 6 figures in BofA account holdings). But they do charge the 3% FX fee for their preferred-class checking accounts - As I said, they might waive them for their highest tiered business and personal accounts, but this was still a relatively preferential level of personal checking account in which I was charged that FX fee - but no out of network or out of country ATM fee when using Scotiabank - who is a global ATM partner of BofA's. The point was, though that other banks ATMs in Mexico besides Scotiabank are not given the preferential treatment at BofA.
Just about any U.S. bank will offer better fee structures to their preferred clients than their standard clients. But some fees tend to be more universally charged than others, and just how much of a preferred client you have to be, well, certainly YMMV.

1) I'm probably going to take an uber / lyft from the train station to the border crossing (I could take the trolley, but that seems like a pain in the butt if I'm taking a small carry on with me). I found the address for the San Ysidro port of entry (720 E. San Ysidro Blvd) is this a reasonable place to get dropped off or should I input another address?
2) I'm staying at the Ticuan Hotel, will most cab drivers know where this is / be able to find it if I give them the address?
3) Is it true that you need to carry your passport with you at all times? Or can I leave it in my hotel room?

I have seen large SUVs carrying wives, grandmas and children searched and caught with drugs store din hidden compartments, all arrested.
I have seen 2 chinos in a brand-new, bright-red BMW sitting duck in the CBP line, caught by a CBP dog. When the dog sat down next to that red car, wagging its tail and refused to leave, the CBP guy shouted a code into his radio. All lanes were shut down and half a dozen CBP agents ran toward the car with guns drawn.
There are also lots of stings set up by the feds. Don't be stupid and tempted by small smuggling deals and get locked up in Club Fed for decades.

Sorry for the very newbie questions, this is my first time leaving the country since I was a kid so I'm a little nervous.1. any address in that vicinity would do, like jack in the box, this is where you would most likely be dropped off. I know a couple of people who do uber, according to them, drop off to the border is quite common.
2. yes, any taxi will go to ticaun. I've taken both the yellow cab and libre, the white / orange cab, never paid more than $5. When heading back to the states, take one of the cabs outside the hotel, don't have the hotel call one for you, they will charge more.
3. like traveling anywhere abroad, make copies of your passport. Leave your passport in your room and carry the copy with another ID like your drivers license. Most people just carry their passport on them, they don't have a room, and only there to drink, party, and head back.

The UBER driver will likely drive as far as he can take you to pedestrian East crossing, somewhere near the jack In the Box. Just follow the stream of people walking South, behind the McDonalds and the Greyhound bus stop, to go through the turnstile gate into Mexico.
You have to check in with Mexico's Immigration to buy the tourist visa, then follow the stream of people heading South to the taxi pick up spot. They all know hotel Ticuan. The fare should be no more than $5 or 50 pesos or they will laugh at you.
By laws, copying passports or US currencies is a Federal crime, but people still do it. Tijuana's policia will accept US driver's license as good ID. If you are stopped and searched by the policia goons, hold all money and valuables firm in your hands so they can't steal them. They just play with you for some beer money. Nothing grave will happen to you unless you screw the Cartels over for a few kilos. Hehe.

...You have to check in with Mexico's Immigration to buy the tourist visa...Actually, for short visits there is no point in buying a visa. I don't remember the numbers, but for about $20 you can buy a visa that is good for about 6 months and is valid for multiple entries into Mexico.
The other option is a free 7-day visit that is clearly marked that it is valid for only a single entry. But in practice they allow you to use that 7-day visa for multiple entries. About 2 weeks ago I got in the wrong line and got a free 7-day visa by mistake. When I entered the next day I went to purchase the 6-month visa, showed the agent my 7-day visa, and he just shrugged his shoulders and let me pass with no extra paperwork. Subsequent days I just waved my 7-day visa to the guard and they let me pass.

Various attorneys have provided legal opinions on copying passports.
As in most criminal cases, it's the criminal intent that makes an act a crime. If you copy passports with the intent of making fake passports, then it's a crime. If you copy your own passport for your own legal use, even in colors, then you are correct, it's not illegal, as you are not using the copies for any illegal acts.
Similarly with copyright laws. If you buy DVDs, games or software, you have the right to make copies for your own use, but selling or giving away copies would be illegal.

Someone had asked, should they carry their passport on them. I only made a suggesting to make copies as you would when you travel abroad and provide copy along with a driver's licence should you get asked. There was no criminal intent on his part. I also told him that most people traveling to Tj carry their passport on them because they dont have a place to keep it safe.
When you travel to some countries, like say vietnam, Cambodia, loas and some hostels in thailand will ask for it. The hotels will ask you to turn over your passport and visa, so they can register you with the local police and will return it to you upon check out. I always refuse and provide them with copies. I had lost my passport while working in Hong Kong, when I went to get a replacement, the staff at the embassy advised me on making copies and keep it in a safe place so the process of making a replacement is quicker. They also advised me to never hand over my passport except to authorized immigration and custom officials, to avoid travel traps, in which you can be scammed to get your passport back. I have seen it happen.. the more corrupt the government is in that country, the more likely you will be scammed to get your passport back.
I travel out of the country for about 5-6 months out of the year for the past 20 years, when someone besides immigration and custom officials asked for my passport, I've always given them a copy and they are okay with that. No one, even police should be in possession of your passport at any time except for immigration and custom officials.

Love my investor Schwab account, wife has no clue about it! Yesterday I removed 5000 pesos from the Las Pulgas ATM (one outside Adelitas is broken) and it accounted to $248.78.Yesterday I went to an ATM inside of Soriana while I was buying some juice boxes and Mexican cheesecake. Got 7000 pesos and the 33.35 pesos ATM fee will be refunded to me at the end of the month. Charge on the Schwab account was $342.49 for an effective / actual exchange rate of 20.54 pesos to the dollar.
I looked at the Bank of America website on Wednesday. Under Business checking accounts they are offering up to $200 bonus for new checking customers. But they only detailed two business checking accounts (Business Advantage checking and Business Fundamental checking. No mention of Business Analytical Checking, even after using the search function on their site). The two business checking accounts listed many features, but probably not all the features. No mention of charging nor waiving any 3% FX fee. So to get the lowdown I will probably need to make a branch visit. For the Business Advantage checking the bank charges $30 a month that can only be waived with high average account balances or $2,500 per month in net credit card purchases. The costs for waiving the $16 monthly fee on the Business Fundamentals Checking account were lower average or minimum balances ($3,000/$5,000) or just $250 in "net new qualifying purchases each billing cycle", so that might be the account to consider if they waive the 3%FX.

It's fairly well hidden in the fine print, but it is there, if you search thoroughly for it. They will not charge any ATM fee on their end if you use a bank listed under their global ATM alliance. In Mexico, the only one is Scotiabank. Up to about 2 years ago, Santander was also one, but no longer. If you use a foreign ATM from a bank that is NOT a global ATM alliance partner, BofA will charge $5 fee for that.
Now, for any selective upper tier account, it's certainly possible that these fees get waived, but unless the specific terms of the account say so, those are BofA's default terms for their standard level accounts. BTW, my experience with BofA is that they only disclose information about their more selective higher tiered accounts after they have pre-screened you as being qualified for them.
BTW, my Schwab Investor Checking Account is now up and running: The hold came off of my initial deposit this morning, and my checks and ATM card arrived in today's mail. I'll be putting it to it's first use some time in the next 2-3 days.

Are you getting hit with the 3% FX fee when you make ATM withdrawals of pesos?
BofA adds a 3% FX fee to Scotiabank ATM withdrawals. It's deceptive, because they don't charge it at the same time, but rather, as a separate fee that posts overnight on the night after the ATM withdrawal.

After 9/11 and the draconian Patriot Act, it's wise not breaking, skirting or even having appearances of skirting Federal laws. Federal and local law enforcement agencies now have extreme power in the land. Individuals have little protection under the constitution. If you are ever charged with a federal crime, attorneys cost around $600 per hour. They are in high demand so they would never discount their rates. You will probably run up $200 K to $300 K easily just to prove your innocence, even in simple Federal cases.
Ex OC Sheriff, Mike C, was one time the shining star, appointed Senior Emergency Advisor to then president George Bush. But then he was trying to intervene on a [CodeWord123] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord123) case of the son of his associate, Don H, and had a run in with the Tony are. He was investigated and prosecuted for corruption in federal court in a long trial, finally convicted of 1 count of witness tampering by coaching his friend Don H what to say on the witness stand. Don Haidl was wearing a wire for the FBI to save his own ass. He was sentenced to 6 years 6 months in Club Fed.
During the trial, prosecutors were delighted in describing to the jury and large audiences of supporters, families and friends, how, which positions, when, where and how many times he was fucking his mistress, his friend's secretary and his sisters in laws.

If you make copies of any ID with criminal intent it's illegal, just not passport. Someone had asked, should they carry their passport on them. I only made a suggesting to make copies as you would when you travel abroad and provide copy along with a driver's licence should you get asked. There was no criminal intent on his part. I also told him that most people traveling to Tj carry their passport on them because they dont have a place to keep it safe.
I travel out of the country for about 5-6 months out of the year for the past 20 years, when someone besides immigration and custom officials asked for my passport, I've always given them a copy and they are okay with that. No one, even police should be in possession of your passport at any time except for immigration and custom officials.
I have been reading that it is much easier to park overnight in Otay mesa than it is in San Ysidro. Also it seems that it is quicker to cross back into the USA. I assume that the taxi to HK will be more, but no idea how much more. Thanks for any info you guys can provide.
I will finally be coming back to my home away from home, Tijuana beats Texas by far! The current exchange rate from BoA to get pesos from the bank is 19.56 and the money gram rate is 20.011. Has anyone out there ever sent money to themselves using money gram? Also, what is the current exchange at the boarder (US side)? It may save a lot of hastle getting pesos before I leave unless the exchange rate suggests otherwise. I'll maybe try the debit card thing with a smaller amount but not to much for my first time. I'll be in Tijuana on the 12-14th and would like a wingman who speaks more than my 75 words of espanol. I've always been solo but always had a good time, if any of you seasoned Tijuana pros would like to share a wingman experiance, I'd appreciated it. I'll be spending my two nights in the master suite. I figure if the nights are cold enough, a SW may like to spend some extra time in the hot tub LOL. I'll try to get some more pics this time around. Sharing is the key!! Hopefully there will be plenty of girls needing Christmas money. Any one planing to be around please feel free to PM me. I used to go to Nuevo Laredo at leat twice a month but Boys Town is a deadly ghost town, so now I go to Tijuana once every 3-4 months (twice per VIP card).

A lot of guys get hooked on Tijuana and the pretty chicas, spending all their vacation time in Tijuana hehe.
With my be of A debit card, I get about 20.4 pesos to the dollar after all fees from the Scotia ATM next to Adelita. Just get enough cash for the day and don't carry too much pesos.
I will be in Tijuana a few times that week, usually Friday or Sat night after 8, and happen to speak at least 76 words if sexy Spanish. Would be delighted to have a few drinks with you. If you see any pervert near bar Kowloon and Pista Norte with glassy eyes and a big bulge in his crotch, just ask "Are you Captain Solo from ISG?" I may meet El Capitan in the flesh, or at least you will make new ISG friends and have some fun.
Between sessions with the chicas in bed, It's always lots of fun flirting with new girls, drinking, smoking, immersing in Latin music, and bullshitting with the bros.

I only do quick daytime bombing runs from San Diego, and I generally do them on Sunday to Thursday during the day. I've NEVER not been able to find a free parking space for my trips in San Ysidro (which typically last 2 hour, to 4 hours max).
But Friday evening and all day and night on Saturday are MUCH tougher to find parking in San Ysidro. But I never go during those times.

I got 20.5 this afternoon at one of the ABCs. I could have gotten 20.59 if I had been willing to wait on a line for maybe 15-20 minutes. I chose the slightly lower rate, with no wait in line, because I was only changing $50. Which pays for 3 typical SG sessions.

I'll maybe try the debit card thing with a smaller amount but not to much for my first timeI was in Tijuana last Wednesday night thru Friday night. The cambios in LZ were selling pesos in a range of around 18.9 to 19.25. LZ cambios were buying pesos at about 19.6 to 19.8.
As I recall, on Friday night in San Ysidro the cambios that I saw near the border were selling pesos in a range of about 19.4 to 19.55 and the domestic located exchange houses were buying pesos in the same range as the Tijuana cambios (19.6 to 19.8).
I used an ATM inside the Soriana grocery store on Revo. To acquire pesos on Wednesday night and Thanksgiving Thursday morning. Both transactions were at an exchange rate of 20.54 (7,033.35 pesos for $342.40). I never saw a compra or venta rate above 19.8 on either side of the border. So debit cards in Tijuana ATMs might be the best route for you to get the most pesos for your dollars.

I always cross through the casino to get some bet sheets. There are many taxi's there and are much cheaper. I don't pay more than 150 pesos, but start at 120.
Also I always find parking on the street. But beware. There is broken glass to be found.

Are white with gold trims. They pick up along the main drag across from the border entry, and drop off on Constitucion between Calle 1 and 2. Fare should be 10 pesos?, maybe more, per person.
I have seen these collectivos lined up on Constitucion waiting for riders as late as 11 PM.
If not, Diego, an old Blue cab driver in front of bar Gloria, will take you to Otay for $10 or 120 pesos last year. May be he would still take 120 pesos now.

Just talked to an ex US Marines back from Iraq.
They have to get up at 5 AM every morning, eat their chow, then hump about 12 miles a day with their 90-lbs weapon load. Weekends and off time they have to stay in the tents, cleaning their weapons, not allowed to go outside, socializing with locals, drinking in bars or fucking local honeys. They are 100% US Government property 24 hours a day.
The recruits in Camp Pendleton, as well as all military personnel in Southern California, are forbidden to cross the border into Mexico for any reasons. I have not seen any soldier in La Zona since about 2008. What's the point of gong to war for your country if you are not allowed to screw local honeys? May as well stay home and do crimes with home boys for more money and more sex.
Needless to say, morale is very low. That policy needs to be reversed by the new Secretary at the highest priority.

Some clubs, body rubs and out call girls will offer discounts. They can get some in most oil and desert countries but no weekend passes and unfortunately don't get transported by ship otherwise a stop in the Philippines, Thailand or Japan would empty their pockets and loads. Gun oil is used more for porn than weapons but thinking about Jody banging your girl and not getting tail only helps if their taking it out on the enemy. Always faithful jar heads.

But with some really bad incidents from the servicemen in South Korea, Philippines and Japan, the rules have been tightened for all. Unfortunate for the majority who like the beer and spread their sperms without getting into trouble nor hurting or killing any locals.
It's been said again and again but I'll repeat it one more time. Exchange your dollars for pesos!
Stopped at ABC Exchange (510 E San Ysidro Blvd) before crossing this afternoon. The exchange was 19.88 pesos to the dollar. The rate was one of the better ones, so the line was long, but it moved quickly.
Paid a visit to AB, and was told "1 mil" for arriba. At today's rate, that amounts to approx. 15% less than the usual $60 quote by AB chicas. How could I pass on that?
Wandered about through the alley for a bit until my attention was grabbed well enough to engage in "negotiations" near VB. 20 USD was thrown out first by her, so I mentioned pesos, and was told 200. Asked for more than the basic service and settled on 400. Do the math. That's 20.12 USD.
Grand total for an enjoyable session with an AB chica and an alley chica in a room at Cascadas, including room fees and a few tip 10 peso coins thrown out - 90 USD.

Used to go out to the bars in Subic City and hang out on the second floor patios to watch the "newbies" whenever the fleet pulled in for a port call. One time we saw this sailor naked carrying his clothes walking across the street to another bar. We yelled down and asked him what he was doing. He yelled back, "Saving time!" Miss the good old days. And yes a few rotten apples have screwed liberty for so many.
I'll be in San Diego from Dec 23rd-25th. I was just wondering if it's worth heading to Tijuana for a day? Are all the chicas spending time with their family rather than working around Christmas?

My favorite SG, who I was with again this afternoon, told me that she was not going home (Veracruz) for Christmas, because the plane ticket was too expensive. She then asked me if I was going to be around for Christmas. I am, although I was not originally planning on coming into Tijuana during those few days. I will be around in San Diego, and I don't have any family plans that conflict. I am wondering if I should try to take it to another level with this chica. Who I actually like very much as well as enjoy fucking. I'm pretty sure that she gave me an invite to do so. She's smart, she's drug free, she does not appear to have a padrote, and she is doing this while working her way through a business administration course. I may get myself involved here.

Strippers in local strip clubs in San Diego actually love military folks. They know that young, healthy, strong, and good-looking soldiers don't mind to share the same stripper for a "date" due to their well-trained military camaraderie. As a group the young soldiers have an irresistible "bargaining" power to a lone stripper who can make the most amount of money out of them in the least amount of time by taking them all at once or one after another - the "fast-food" style. San Diegan strippers don't care for a lone wolf, they prefer and give priority for the whole pride. The bigger the pride is the better because of the "economy of scale" and time-saving.
Every day or night each stripper at some local clubs goes home with her own group of "admirers".

Someone should attempt a new World Record $50 for 6 skanky street walkers. Hehe.That's actually NOT the record. Now that the Peso can be gotten at over 20 to the dollar, I've paid as little as 900 for 3 SG sessions in one afternoon. Which, at the rate of 20.45 is actually $44. So really $44 US is my personal best for three SG sessions in one day. And I usually go for sin ropa sessions, which is generally a cost adder. If someone else was willing to dispense with that, they could do it for even less - even as little as 750 pesos without hard negotiation.
It's actually quite possible to get a good SG session for just under $12 US including the room at some of the dumpier SG cuartos (such as the Eduardo or Theresa) at the current exchange rates. The last time I did the very well regarded SG Edith at the Eduardo, it only set me back 240 pesos with her keeping her top on. That's just under $12 at the current exchange rate. So you could actually do 4 GOOD street girls for under $50 US without too much difficulty. 5 or 6 of the fatter skankier ones is probably also do-able on a slow weekday during the holidays for under $50 US if enough chicas are desperate and one negotiates for the bottom peso rates. But I'll leave that record-breaking adventure in low-cost fucking for someone else. I'd rather get the quality SGs for 280-330 pesos including the cuarto and sin ropa adder.
I should add, if you're really going for volume - say at least 5 SG sessions or more in a day, the economical approach could be to book one room for a whole day, and bring multiple SGs back to that same pre-paid room. But you'd need to do at least 5 SGs in that day, and get some that will go to a different hotel than the one they stand in front of, to make it work. Since I usually only do afternoon quick bombing runs with 2 or 3 SG sessions at most in a few hour timeframe, I don't use this approach.
Cool user name by the way. How are you getting those exchange rates? I got 18.8% even though the sign said 19. Xx (under. 5). There must be a fee on top of the exchange cost and it doesn't sound like any of you guys are factoring that in. I got quoted 700 pesos or 25 dollars, that's 10 more usd paying with pesos. I think if you can deal with the lines buying in Tijuana or closest to it is the best rate (not sure about selling but no need if you return). It doesn't sound like you including tips and room rates with your frugal monger records.

I think if you can deal with the lines buying in Tijuana or closest to it is the best rate (not sure about selling but no need if you return). It doesn't sound like you including tips and room rates with your frugal monger records.Last week, during midweek, most of the Cambios on the northern part of San Ysidro were giving rates between 20.35 and 20.5. The highest I ever saw at a Cambio was 20.64 last Wednesday afternoon on Northern San Ysidro.
It was lower yesterday, typically around 19.6, but I exchanged pesos 3 times during the previous week, at rates between 20.35 and 20.6. Because I had lots of pesos left over from last week at those high rates, I didn't exchange any more at 19.6 yesterday.
Also, I have a Schwab High Yield Investor Checking account, which charges no ATM fees (and they refund the ATM fees the other bank charges), no FX fees, no fees of any kind. I used it once last week at a Banamex ATM last Thursday, and got a rate of 20.46 - that's after the ATM fee gets refunded back to me, but even if they didn't refund the fee, I still would have gotten 20.15 effective rate. Most other ATM cards would hit you for a 3% FX fee and you'd also be looking at $3-6 worth of ATM fees per foreign withdrawal, but not the Schwab ATM account.
BTW, it sounds like you used a Cambio that charges a comission. If the cambio says No Comission, you should get exactly the "Compra" rate, which is the lower of the two numbers on the spread. Last week, many cambio places on northern San Ysidro Blvd. were sporting signs that said something like "Compra 20.45" and "Vente 20.60" along with "No Comision"
I actually WAS including the room rates (typically 40-80 pesos per SG session) I did not include tips, because when I go to a real shit-hole SG hotel, I don't tip them, but if I did, it would be 20 pesos max (just a buck). The 240 peso session I referred to below with the well regarded SG Edith, was actually the 200 peso base rate, where she kept her top on, plus 40p for the dump room at the Eduardo. I could have had her fully nude for 50 pesos more.

They need to be at the same time to be a gang bang. Anyone can get 10 of the fat ugly ones in an afternoon for $50. There needs to be a "quality requirement. If any wingmen are available on Monday or Tuesday, I'll be the tall middle aged white guy drinking beer in HK. That should make it easy to spot me.

We were simply talking about maximum fuckage for minimum buckage, and it was suggested by Captain Solo that I was doing very well at 3 SG sessions for under $50. I simply pointed out that those numbers were really nothing out of the ordinary, and with current exchange rates, I actually got 3 sin ropa sessions for $44, and if someone was willing to dispense with the sin ropa adder, that one could easily pull 4 well regarded SGs into basic sessions for under $50 total.

I guy banging multiple girls in a row is generally refered to as " Our Highness". I think you owe me a beer now. Monday evening will be fine. The real rule is, "just have fun".

Yes. Lighten up and have some fun with the bros. That's what La Zona is all about.
I met quite a few ISG bros in HK over the year and became good friends. A few guys went through horrible life-changing events. I was glad to be there and give them some supports.
Will buy you a drink when we meet in HK. Just go to the South end of bar Kowloon. If you see a guy with glassy eyes, wearing a flight jacket, looking like St Patrick, that El Capitan.
Or if you see any horny and nefarious-looking guy in HK, just ask him, " Are you from ISG?" Chances are you will find an ISG bro to drink with.
Cheers!

Donorita was just having some fun with you. You are entitled to having some funs at his cost as a virile, macho man, but don't be so testy and sensitive like little, bitchy girls.
Everyone knows you are a serial banger, not a gang banger. If you keep gang banging, sometimes the gang will bang you. Hehe.
Gang bangs usually means MMMW due to shortage of women, but it can also mean MWWW for the Sultan of Brunei. What would you call the MWWW? Banging Gang?

There are usually only about 100 pasty, middle-aged white guys in HK every night on weekends. Hehe. Well, perhaps also 10 Africans, 1,000 Chinos and may be 10,000 Latinos.
How are we going to find you to claim our free beers?
Perhaps the bros should ask a sexy HK girl to kiss and leave her lips stick on his left cheek. Anyone with lipstick on his left cheek is an ISG perv.

I don't think Tijuana's La Zona is the right place for you. Hehe.
The girls would be screwing a squad of horny soldiers all night.
What clubs that have take outs?They all do it but very discreetly by the nature of their business and the repressive local laws. You need to invest a lot of time and money to earn their trust.
If you're a lone wolf you may eventually get lucky with a "newbie" stripper. However, it doesn't take her long to learn the rope from her sistas, and fully realizes the awesome power of her sexuality. She'll move on to bigger and better offers and drops you like a rock.
"Are you here by yourself?" or "Where are all your friends?" aren't necessarily social greetings but could very much be how they would size you up and count the "ka-ching!" in their head for a possible date later.
Hey guys,
How do I go about getting a MFF threesome?
I want a porn style threesome where the girls kiss and go down on each other. Getting a BBBJ would be great but not required. I want to be able to cum more than once.
What would be the best place to do this? Street girls, Adelita, HK, classified adds?
Around how much would it cost?
My Spanish is pretty poor so what would I say to specify what I want? I saw the post in the Spanish language section that gives the phrase "Quiero hacer un trio con 2 mujeres bisexuals. " Would I just say that girls I'm interested in? How do I say that I want to cum more than once?

The guy probably recorded the sessions over a few days then spliced them together.
The girls were afraid of the foreigner's huge dick size. He probably won the ISG dick size contest last week. Hehe. The pimp apparently has before dealt with the girls' fear of penetration by huge foreigners' dicks. He was urging them to have sex by their legs (or feet) instead. Don't know how they would do that.
The other ISG guys said audio in the Youtube indicated it cost the guy 150 K VnD, or about $7, for 1 hour sex with those girls.

HK has hot, sexy lesbian shows with girls licking, sucking, eating pussies, toy plays and full penetration on stages on both floors every 2 to 3 hours.
Quite a few good-looking HK chicas do the lesbian shows and are experts in eating pussies, masturbating, screwing their GF's with toys, sucking dicks bare back etc. HK would be the easiest place to arrange a Menage a Treis.
The easiest way for newbies to arrange this affair would be grabbing a floor manager or an English-speaking mesero and explain to him what you want to do with the girls. They know which girls on hand would do all these kinky acts with guys in the hotels.
The majority of HK girls would be open to do it for the right prices, as they routinely do the lesbian shows on stage in front of hundreds poking, licking, sucking horny guys. Exceptions would be a few top-tiered girls who would never do the lesbian show.
Every rotten, kinky, perverted sex acts is available in Tijuana for the right price.

TTM.I travel to vietnam twice a year, my mom is half viet so I can speak the language. I don't believe he paid as low as $8 an hour. First off, they are speaking with a northern accent of Hanoi. Prices in Hanoi tend to be higher than in the south like Ho Chi Minh City. Second, the girls are brought to him by a pimp/hotel staff. They charge more because they have to pay off the corrupt police.
Girls with pimps tend to start off at 1 mil dong or about $47, and he's a foreigner so I doubt prices for him would be less than 1. 5 mil dong ($72). Freelance girls start at around 500 K dong or $23. These are the prices for 1 pop. Higher end freelance girls at clubs tend to charge the most, easily $100.
When I am in vietnam, I like to go to hoc toc parlor (Hair salon), and get a BBBJ. They take you to a massage room, do your deed. Tip the girl 200 K to 300 K dong or about $14, pay for the room another 150 K. Damage about 350 K-500 K ($18-$23). Of course, I get a manicure and pedicure for $6 first. Eventhough, it's a hair salon, you won't be able to get your haircut there. Should you insist then they will call someone to come and cut your hair. LOL.
They reason half the girls refuse is, his size. some even said he is too big.
This is how it's done in vietnam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IwG0rjCdhj0&t=356s.
Zalo and wechat are the new thing to use when in vietnam. the app will tell you who is near, you contact them, make arrangements. These are freelancers. prices range from 500K-1mil dong ($23-$47) With these girls, there are a lot of fake profiles, so i meet them somewhere first to see if they are like their pics.

TTM.The guy was tall, large, white. They were surprised and, in some cases, intimidated. The girl at 2:13 was saying basically that she was "afraid" that his dick was as thick as her forearm.
A common misconception is Asia is that Americans have huge dicks. All they know is what they see in American pr0 n, so all of us are hung like Johnny Wadd.

Adelita / HK. Possible, you'll have to find one, then have her choose the other. It's doable, but IMHO not worth the effort. Price may range from $300 - $500.
Classified Ads. Much easier, many ads advertising for such services, and you can place your own. Downside is you'll probably need more Spanish than just a couple of phrases. Cost probably in the $200 range for an hour, plus motel.
Escort. Most likely your best bet because you can book a sure thing. Lack of Spanish shouldn't be a huge problem. Cost will probably be similar to HK, maybe a bit less, but maybe more time, certainly in a much nicer hotel.

Phordphan is right regarding escort availability for MFF, but, the price goes quite high. Cumintj.com advertises each of two girls will charge $200/ hour. So, your one hour dream session will run you $400 plus your hotel.
These same girls charge $125/hour for a session with just one girl. So, you can spend $400 for a 1-hour session with two girls or you can spend $375 for 3 separate 1-hour sessions with one girl.
Depending on your financial situation, it might be fun to try a time or two.

To answer your last question: Quiero terminar mas de una vez. Or, Quiero terminar dos veces (I want to finish more than once / I want to finish two times).Actually, there are some Street Girls who will do threesomes. But only with their known preferred partner. The well regarded Edith and Karla, who both work daytimes out of the Eduardo will do threesomes with each other and known clients. I don't know the rate, but given that they both do 200-250 quickies + the Eduardo cuarto fee of 40, I expect that you could get them both for no more than 1000 pesos combined for a half hour + 80 for the room. So, all in at current exchange rates, under $55 if you paid in pesos. As I have never done this with them, I can't speak to the degree of interaction between them during the session.

When I asked one of the CPB guys when the other direction is supposed to open, he said that they haven't set a date, but it won't be until some time after the new year starts. From the walkway heading back into San Ysidro, you can look into the facility for Mexico Entry which is on the ground level, and it appears to be physically completed. They may just be dragging their feet in staffing it.
Sept 12 was the date they opened the permanent walkway going from TJ into the U.S. entry.

The web site doesn't really say that much about threesomes but if you ask they go for $150 (2400 pesos) to $175 (3000 pesos) depending on which girls you ask for. Also all Musas are MSOG, so coming again is no problem. I downloaded Google Translate (and spanish pack) on my smartphone and have it in airplane mode to not use phone data.

You can park free all weekend on E Beyer, 1 block East of San Ysidro Blvd. , behind the Rodeway Inn, if you can risk some one breaking in your car. A few times I walked that street, there was fresh broken glass.
Don't drive a Pimpmobile. Drive a cheap, Oldsmobile or Phord and park for free. You'll be OK. My wingman was cheap, always parks his pretty new Lexus SUV loaded with sports equipment on that street. Never been broken in.

I went and sat in the back of my hotel drinking tea and they would call and girls would start showing up by the dozen. I paid 200 k to the girl with a 100 k tip. I went with a Japanese guy that could speak Vietnamese, which helped as no one spoke English, because only Vietnamese people go to these places. So yeah I think he very much did do all those girls as it is the cheapest place I have ever been.

Those prices seem super high. Why would a threesome at HK be $300-$500 when a girl by herself is $60-$80?Because of the high level of services that you have asked for.
Need I remind you of exactly what you were requesting?
Hey guys,
How do I go about getting a MFF threesome?
I want a porn style threesome where the girls kiss and go down on each other. Getting a BBBJ would be great but not required. I want to be able to cum more than once.Phordfan gave you a very good summary of what to expect from different classes of Tijuana sex workers.
Have you had a threesome in Tijuana or know somebody who has?Yes I have. I have had over a half dozen threesomes with Adelitas chicas, probably closer to a dozen threesomes with street girls and, in the last 2/5 years, far too many to threesomes to count with walkers.
The threesomes with Adelitas chicas were all done better than a decade ago. The threesomes were usually suggested by the chicas and all were conducted at the (then) base pay of the chicas (600 p each except for my first one that was suggested by two gorda chicas for $40 each). But I didn't ask for or receive the level of services that you are asking for.
With the street girls, also mostly conducted a decade ago, the same thing except for when I took Sandy of Cascades up with her (then allegedly) novia and wallmate Angelina. With those two I asked for and received your level of service for Sandy's regular price with me (200 p). But I was an established very regular customer of Sandy at the time, with whom I enjoyed most of my SG threesomes at that time.
These days walkers show up at my door in ones and two when I am in town. Its not unusual for me to be just beginning with one walker when another arrives at my hotel door & joins in on the fun. I don't request your level of services with walkers, just their approval to pair up when one of them doesn't know the other chica well. My standard pay to walkers is 100 pesos + regalo for a BBBJ or 150 pesos +are for full service (with the exception of three walkers that I regularly pay 300 or 350 pesos to.
But I'm not a stranger to any of these chicas, except when one already known provider brings along a new amiga with her.
You are asking for a lot of special services from total strangers when you have no lay of the land and practically no Spanish skills. So what Phordfan is telling you is exactly what is realistic for you.
Those prices seem super high. Why would a threesome at HK be $300-$500 when a girl by herself is $60-$80? Have you had a threesome in Tijuana or know somebody who has?
$200 for classified ad girls seems more reasonable. I don't have any idea how to set that up though.
Thanks for the language answer.$200 per girl is American escort prices. No way I'll pay that much again.I assumed you'd want more than 30 minutes, so that's why I posted the price I did for HK. Not many guys get HK girls for $60 these days, and many report 30 minute sessions for $100. A specialty girl is probably going to command somewhere in the $150-and-up range for an hour. Multiply that by 2. Add the price of the room and drinks.
Just read Craigslist and look for girls advertising trios. Most of the top notch girls on CL go for about $100 for an hour. Double will be $200, plus about $25 for a nice motel. Less is possible.
Yes, I've had a few in Tijuana. I have a fave who is bi on occasion. I set them all up via CL. They ranged from free to $60-$80 to cover gas and babysitter for the night. And, frankly, they look a lot better in the movies than in real life. I'm not saying they're not fun, they're just not as much fun as they appear in all the porn flix.
The parking lot with entrance immediately to the right of the Jack in Box charges $7 for 8 hours. At least that is what they charged a couple weeks ago. It might be different on Saturday, I only used it Sunday through Friday.It is the same rate over the weekend. But the caveat is the line to get in on the weekends when it is more crowded. It can be a half hour wait to get in.

Was in La Zona Friday night. It was fairly cold outside, like 65 deg. The whole block was lit with Christmas decorations, full of people, walkers, gawkers, street girls, food vendors, bar touts. It was very lively.
There were lots of street girls, some pretty, all layered up in warm clothes. I drove on Constitution past hotel Irma. Did not see any girls attractive enough to warrant a check out.
Adelita was packed with guys and had the most girls I have ever seen in any weekend, may be 30 to 40, a few very attractive, flaca, doable. For a change, the stripper was also flaca, very hot and knew how to dance.
Las Chevelas had a pretty girl doing body search at the door. She patted me down then squeeze my crotch. OUCH! There were a dozen guys and about 2 dozen girls, most thicker than my taste. 4 girls were dancing on the high stage, all thick and heavy with big butts hehe.
Tropical no longer pat down people entering the bar. A few girls were dancing on the stage to Banda music. There were lots of girls sitting on chairs around the bar, but they all look odd, just not as pretty and feminine as girls in other bars. The bar is dark and damp, reeking of [CodeWord109] (http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord109), with scruffy, uneven floor. I got disgusted and walked outside for fresh air. Did not see any girl walk to hotel with guys while I was there.
HK had the most girls, may be 50 to 60, lots of hot girls. Most of my favoritas were there. Pasha was stripping dreamily. She has a pretty face and a very nice body with long, shapely legs. Guys like her. She made lots of tips. A girl was walking around naked with her black-lace girder and a crotchless panties, showing her tiny hairy pussy. Hehe. HK is always so sexy and so much fun.
The meseros set up a pretty young girl on a stretcher, loading California rolls on top of her nude body, encouraging guys to tip her for the goodies. I tried one and found the rice uncooked! YUK! That chef in Prada is a stupid pendejo and should be fired! Without drawing guys' interest, the Sushi buffet was canceled early.
Will be back to La Zona a few more times before Christmas and New Year. A few guys seem to celebrate all their holidays in La Zona bars with their bar-girls family. Hehe.
It is the same rate over the weekend. But the caveat is the line to get in on the weekends when it is more crowded. It can be a half hour wait to get in.I never bother anymore because either the line or it's sold out but I was originally referring to the one behind jack in the box which is smaller and fills quickly. For escort or a standing girl in ZN, I will buy one item in the outlet which gives me a few hours of parking. I have several shirts with tags on them in the closet. Do not do this if you expect to return past 10 pm and definitely not over night as you will get towed. If you are lucky enough to get the 8 dollar parking, there is a shuttle bus outside of ped west that drives to the train stop for a buck.

Did Buddha find his nirvana in that Northern beach town with dozens girls for $8 a pop?
A few beach town in the Northern parts have turned into sex destinations for natives. The videos showed girls who were fairly crude, typical farm girls turn prostitutes. They sure make more money faster going in the hotel than breaking their backs on the field.
Hanoi has much hotter girls with polish and city sophistication. Average rates for natives are $10 to $25, up to $50 and $100 for alleged models. If you know a little of the language, Hanoi girls can be very sweet, pretty, fun, sexy and personable.
These places are not where tourist go and many girls will not go with white guys. I went and sat in the back of my hotel drinking tea and they would call and girls would start showing up by the dozen. I paid 200 k to the girl with a 100 k tip. I went with a Japanese guy that could speak Vietnamese, which helped as no one spoke English, because only Vietnamese people go to these places. So yeah I think he very much did do all those girls as it is the cheapest place I have ever been.

A few solid days of eating, drinking, partying, screwing chicas non stop should satisfy your body and soul for a while. That's the nice thing about La Zona. You can stay in 1 place, I. E. Hong Kong Club and hotel Cascada and have access to hot girls 24/7 without wasting any time traveling or looking. The sexy chicas will find you!
Even early morning, 3-6 AM, there are still quite a few younger girls partying in HK. They tend to play late. Lots of girls would still go up to the hotel that late, and the costs are quite a bit lower compared to most other sex towns.
Ever since HK brought in dozens hot girls every night, I have not much desire to go any where else for girls. I was in Asia a few weeks this year and actually miss the fun and the sweet, pretty girls of La Zona.
Between sessions, have some fun flirting with the girls in the bar, or find the other ISG pervs to drink with. Asking them if they're from ISG and you may find a few perverts. Hehe.

TTM.From my perspective, there is still plenty to recommend about a trip to South America or Asia, but not if the ONLY reason you are going is for economical sex. If someone is from Southern California, you simply can't beat the economics of Tijuana. OTOH, it's much easier to find real passionate GFE in P4P in some other locations. But once you find it in Tijuana (I have, but I have spent a lot of time and effort looking for it before I did find it). For me personally, I've found a small contingent of hot looking ladies from whom I can get true, Thailand-level uncovered GFE service, for rates that are no more than 1000 pesos (which nowadays is $50 US) for a half hour. If I'm not seeking that much time, or true GFE, I can get a quite good quickie in Tijuana for less than 1/3rd that amount. And either way, it's a half-hour drive from my house in Scripps / Poway area. Which beats the snot out of an 18 hour transpacific flight each way.

Varieties are the spices of life. You do need to get away once in a while.
Many beach towns in North Vietnam have discreetly turned into sex destinations with local government's tacit approval.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMLAPTIT3Rg
When Central Security Police do vice raids, locals usually have early warnings, leaked to them by local police, to halt the vices until they leave.
The girls look fresh and pretty, unlike the scruffy and hardened hos of Bangkok and Pattaya. These towns will be the new sex destinations with lots of fun.

I am headed to Peru knowing I won't find what I get in Tijuana. My rate is usually $40 per hour in my room with a Walker or SG. So why am I going to Peru? I want the urban adventure and to work on my civie game. My expectations are low but if all fails there are a few brothels to keep me busy and lots of good food. Not to mention it will be summer time when I get there which usually means salsa music festivals.
Living in and next to Tijuana is GOLD for americans that like to play the pfp game.

If you really want to pay very low, there are a couple of brothels which are cheap and not bad. There's always the Pizza Alley and bars there with FLs. I was lucky. A guy there used to arrange sex parties and I attended one and got contacts and got good pussy from there on. After the initial contact at the party, it was just word of mouth and the girls would arrive at the apartment at the stated time. Not even phone numbers. There's fun to be had there. Have fun.
Hey fellas,
Been a long time and am finally heading back tomorrow. Am super excited to return to the land of chicas and fun. Was wondering if anyone else will be down there. Would be nice to meet new friends or run into some old ones.

Damn! SlickVick! Where haveve you been hiding?
The main difference is, HK now has hot girls for partying and sex 24/7. Early AM there are lots of hot, fresh, young girls partying in the bar. You will never be out of hot, fun companies any hours, any days of the week.
You can just stay in hotel Cascada and bring in girls after girls from the bars and the street. Life is so wonderful, huh?
I will be down Saturday night. Look for El Capitan near bar Kowloon.

I am from DC and next week I am free. Is it worth going to Tijuana for a few days or it's better off be in DC? Certainly there are more girls for the Buck but not sure if the total cost ruins it. Would 1 k suffice for 3-4 days? I can probably see 3 in DC with that.
Thanks.

Thanks.Depending on airfare, 1 K in 3-4 days should go a long way. When you leave the airport grab the 992 to the train station (America Plaza), then jump on the blue line to the border. You'll need to get a card for the bus and train and pay the $5 one day fare. It takes a little over an hour total. Monday, I missed the first bus by about 10 seconds and had to wait 15 minutes for the next one. That is no big deal but when we were pulling into San Ysidro, I saw the exchange rate at 20.175 and 20.625, as I was crossing the street to exchange $350, the price drops to 19.625. Missed that by 30 seconds (damn bus). Back to my travel suggestions for what ever it's worth. Take a cab to Cascadas and get your room, addition to HK, most SW's will go there, also Las Chavelas and Tropical BG's will as well. Hong Kong had a bunch of great looking girls in a wide varity of shapes and sizes. The quantity and quality of the SW's was down but it was cold which resulted in few hotties being out (pun intended). The hot tub came in handy at night with the SW at night. You can get a half off coupon from Las Chavales (sp) if you buy a bucket of 10 beers for around $20 if paid in pesos (use pesos for everything except your room deposit). Unfortunately the exchange rate at most places in the sone is now 17. Finally explore the zona and don't tip every agressive BG that bumps into you and everything is negotable. El Captain has far more words of wisdom than I do. My expertise is limited to traveling to Tijuana by air and having a great time with a 100 word spanish vocabulary and 7000 pesos.

I read that it is usually good to use dollars (1's & 5's). I did a quick search and the airfare is looking at 800 after all said and done so travel-wise I am out 1 k before paying a girl a cent. Maybe the price is high because of holidays but if lets say I go sometime in Feb the airfare is basically cut in half. So more time for fun LOL?
I am assuming it is safe to store suitcase in the hotel near HK and it is OK to bring a girl home overnight if things go well? Or if bringing a girl overnight it should be an escort (more trustworthy?
And would you say the majority of the girls down there are Mexican or there's a range of hot Asians / Caucasians as well?

With $1000 budgeted to just fucking, you can have about 60 street girl quickies. You could also have over twenty-five more prolonged SG sessions. You could also have maybe 10-12 hour-long SG sessions with as many extras as you can ask for. You could probably also have 3 all night sessions, but the question would be, with whom?
If you budget $500 of that $1000 for your travel expenses, (say $350 for airfare, and $150 for 3 nights in a hotel) it's more of a question. I think the real question is, what are you looking for? Lots of variety? More passionate GFE? (In Tijuana, I find you need to repeat a few times before the Street girls will even be open to offering real GFE. I can't speak to the escort agencies, or the bar girls).
I could certainly get 3 nights of all the bilssful passionate fucking I could handle in TJ for $5-600 (I'm local) but I know my way around and what I'm looking for, and who will and will not provide it. I suspect that the first day or two for someone not familiar with the place would be mostly spent learning the ropes, having some trial and error, and seeing who strikes your fancy. I believe that that's a long way to travel to a place for just 3 days in a place where you don't know the ropes.

Since topic is on Asia I am going to Australia in 2017 and I am contemplating on going to the Philippines without knowing their culture\custom or language. I've got to read the PI thread more but would like to ask for those that have experience there some advice. Such as if they have a district\area like in Tijuana and places like Adelitas\Hong Kong. I like Hotel Ticuan in Tijuana because of the closeness to the Zone and style so would there be a similar type of hotel there.

Spartan.Hey Spartan,
I have been to Ticuan and Tijuana so many times and also to Phil. Phil is different and not like Tijuana.
Angeles City is bigger and crazier and it is a must see if you have 5 days or more. You can even fly into Clark Airforce Base right next to Angeles, which is highly recommended if you get for an extra $150 airfare. Manila traffic is crazy and you may spend a day (8 hrs) just traveling to Angeles if you are traveling during normal hours.
Manila is more organized and there are some hotels on Burgos Street that are like Cascadas with the action in the street and you take the girl with you upstairs. Or you go to strip clubs and pick up hookers like you do at Hong Kong.
If you are looking for elegant hotels like Ticuan then they do exist. ShangriLa for example. But you need to transport the girl to your hotel in a cab.
For me the personally the Burgos action (in Manila) was too slow especially during the day so I moved on to Angeles after my first day in Manila. I'd recommend not focusing on the hotel as much but first focusing on the location. In Angeles there are several hotels that can compete with my favorite Ticuan. Angeles Beach Club is definitely in the same league. Lewis Grand Hotel is great. Central Park Tower (a new hotel) will beat even Ticuan quite easily.
Fundamentally be aware that if you come from Tijuana you will be shocked that maybe 30% of girls would not go near our average Tijuana white monger (picture overweight 40+ american) but good, rich looking white guys may draw more attention. Many of the top 30% are in fact the hottest girls and are interested only in Korean or Japanese men. To me this was a shocking thing as I am used to negotiating only price with chicas in Tijuana. The act is almost never in doubt. In Phil the girls will not even smile or talk to you. Quite an ego killer.
But do go. Phil is different. The girls are less puta-like, more loving, and uncovered sex is also almost always on the menu (rare in Tijuana). Some readers here may be into that. On other side of the coin they are also less talented in bed. No 15 min quickies here. Most girls will stay with you for 40 min to 2 hrs. Pretty bad at oral compared to that in Tijuana.
All in all. If you have not been to both Tijuana and Phil you are missing something. Must do.
Howdy.
I am contemplating on going to the Philippines without knowing their culture\custom or language.
Spartan.Dude,
Almost everyone you will meet in Phil speaks decent or even good English.

You only have to remember a few phrases.
For street girl: "Dos cientos y cinquenta (250) or treis cientos (300) pesos para sexo sin ropa con chuparme (sex with blow job totally nude).
For bar girl: "Quiniento (500) Seis cientos (600) setecientos (700) ocho cientos (800) noveciento (900) mil (1000) pesos para sexo en la cama.
A few of my wingmen speak nada Espanol, but they still manage to get good lays every weekend. Hehe.

This is the last week before Christmas. Lots of girls are hanging in there trying to make last-minute money.
You can tell the girls are all trying hard to make some extra money for a good Christmas. A few pretty young girls seemed to be having a hard time making ends meet, and plaintively appealed to me for extra tips for the holidays.
Generous tips to the girls for "Feliz Navidad" are usually appreciated and remembered very well into the new year. The girls can be very appreciative with just a little extra above and beyond the contractual agreements, and will act more like friends, not workers, to you.

PH is a number of islands and many differing cities. Mongering is different in each city. First decide where you want to go to PH. Clive talked about Manila and Angles City. There are many others. As it is your first time, Angles City may be easier for you as it is a cesspool with bars and clubs full of girls to go. In the past you could see a out of shape smelly older monger with a 18 year old Philly tagging along but this may have changed with the invasion of Koreans and them owning bars to cater to big spenders Koreans. But there is still a lot of pussy available there. Not much to do there other than fuck girl (s) and get another one, repeat. English is spoken there. Have fun.

For me personally, I've found a small contingent of hot looking ladies from whom I can get true, Thailand-level uncovered GFE service, for rates that are no more than 1000 pesos (which nowadays is $50 US) for a half hour. If I'm not seeking that much time, or true GFE, I can get a quite good quickie in Tijuana for less than 1/3rd that amount. Hi Member #2041, looking for tip where to get these GFE girls that give the uncovered service like in Asia. Are you talking bar girls (HK, Adelitas), SW's or FL's? Please specify. Thanks.

Hi Member #2041, looking for tip where to get these GFE girls that give the uncovered service like in Asia. Are you talking bar girls (HK, Adelitas), SW's or FL's? Please specify. Thanks.They are all street girls, but it takes work, and repeating, and developing a rapport with them. I don't think I've ever gotten BBFS GFE service from any chica the first time I went with her. Usually, it takes a minimum of 3 sessions before they will be open to it, and that is really dependent upon what happened the first couple of times I was with her. I can't really explain it other than to say that, generally, my first session with any street girl is a basic 250 peso sin ropa session. During the course of that first session, as well as the next one if the first one was promising, I will get a sense of what she offers, and how friendly and amenable she is to certain things, such as FIV, FIA, and DATY, and multiple positions without upselling me. Rather, is she going with the flow and just getting into the session. It's also somewhat unpredictable trial and error. But I can often tell based upon the chemistry whether any particular chica will be open to it down the road. There isn't any standard playbook for getting it done, it just takes having a feel for the specific girl and what she feels about you. But right now, there are 3 chicas who I have seen recently and continue to see regularly who will do BBFS sessions with me for either 500 p for the quickie or 800 for a half hour. There is also a fourth chica who I had been doing BB sessions for at least the past 7+ years, but I don't see her anymore, because she had a baby and has put on a solid 30-40 pounds, and she just doesn't do it for me anymore. But I try to avoid where she stands, because I feel guilty about not going up with her after many years of getting BB service from her, because I don't have the heart to tell her honestly that she just got unattractive with all the weight she put on. There are another couple of long time chicas who I used to do BBFS, but they retired a while back.

Hi Member #2041, looking for tip where to get these GFE girls that give the uncovered service like in Asia. Are you talking bar girls (HK, Adelitas), SW's or FL's? Please specify. Thanks.Just curious StudBucket: What distinctions do you make (regarding Tijuana chicas) between Street Walkers and Freelancers?
Or did you mean street girls when you wrote "SW's"?
And a hearty shout out Member #2041 for such an excellent response to this question!
