Probably like you I have been all over in close to 30 countries and places more dangerous but they were very adement. There was no way they were taking me. I know I am safe inside and I get less...

There are a shitload of them here in medellin. I wonder if that affects pricing much.

They flat out did not want to go for their safety the way I read it. I am obvious gringo but very fluent. I see no need to push my luck 1 day before I go. Fase II seems to be the best option but they...

I was heading out to this location but 3 or 4 taxi drivers refused to go there saying it's too dangerous. Not sure if things have worsened in the area or maybe some are open to more risk.

I went there last night about 11 pm and only maybe 25 girls but then again it was the valentine day of Colombia yesterday. Still 10 k entrance. Clean. Good mix of girls. Nobody was approaching me...

I used these in San Jose, Costa Rica. Lots in Ecuador too. They are not a new concept.

Good idea. I needed one in thailand and Cambodia too. Can't deal with the heat.

The two don't compare and are both very unique. Cartagena is also extremely hot and you might find yourself sleeping in the day and going out at night. Sosua is far far easier to get action day or...

I went to energia. I thought they might give you a chance to sit and chat a little but they wanted to usher all the girls in. The mamasan was not too helpful although I saw some other latino...

Thank you everyone for the info. I rarely would do a bus in the day in most countries. The 60 k info keeps me from being ripped off.

Can someone tell me what I should be paying for an airport cab to Hotel Central Plaza around midnight? My flight gets in late and I have not been to Medellin before. Are some cab companies more...

We have over 101 chongos here in Quito (North, South, Central) according to a recent news article in the paper. Places are hit and miss and the girls move around but I would say it's better than a...

I would bring at least $400-500 in 100's as a backup plan and then try the ATMs. If you don't need the currency, you can always take it back home. Traveling overseas without some cash is asking for...

Nothing like a buncha hos with chips stuck in their teeth and smelling of the chip-flavor to turn a guy on :)

Not that good of a pickpocket I take it. I had a stripper in the US pickpocket me (and at least another half dozen guys, including an off-duty cop) one time. One guy was yelling looking his $400...

I too have AT&T/Cingular service and although I've used it in several countries while roaming, it's EXPENSIVE. It's $2 in most places per minute, as you know. Makes for a good emergency phone though....

I like my Bank of America ATM card. They send me an email with EVERY transaction. If anything funny is going on, I will know right away. And it has a limit of up to $1,500 per day (you have to ask...

The main thing is use common sense. I have traveled to Colombia a number of times and the people that get themselves in trouble are usually the ones getting totally skunked or stupid (or careless /...

I was commenting on the comment someone made about their money getting counted, being fingerprinted and getting their passport copied.

Not sure it deserves such drama, however, it would not be smart to pay girls in dollars right now as you'd be taking a big hit. With the dollar so poor, the girls aren't going to favor it anyways...

I've never had them even look at my money before. I break it up between locations (on me, carry on, etc.).

Sounds like some bad luck.

David

why don't you bring more cash with you and then when you run out, you hit the atms? that's what i do. the exchange rate for cash will probably still be better than the fees it sounds like you're...

A little more danger and drama than I prefer but I'm glad you made it ok to Medellin.

I found the gay announcer comment funny. It seems like all the girls have gay "safe" friends.

I take it...

I think you're more in love with yourself than the Colombian women, honestly. I haven't run across such an arrogant/cocky person as you in quite a while.

Congrats on the love affair with yourself....

Sorry to those wanting to read about issues of Medillin. I'm guilty of partially hijacking this forum. There is no value in further discussing this issue in this forum.
