San Jose - 2004 Reports

[WillySP]

I agree with UnospongeBob's position. I have helped out people with exact details and have been stung a couple of times.

One where the guy didn't treat the lady with respect and one where the guy ranted and raved about not having the same experience that I did.

For the most part most that have written to me on this board and others have been great. But there are some contacts that I don't feel comfortable sharing. These are special women that I have a fantastic time with and until I know who someone is I wouldn't give out this information. I wouldn't want to take the chance that they wouldn't be treated with respect.

My experience has varied with the same woman. One great and the next not so good. It all depends on what kind of day they have had or other circumstances.

I don't mind helping guys as I appreciated all the advice I have been given.

Hola Fellow Mongers...

Did you see my post about my reluctance to give out detailed information on our girls to unknown mongers? I have been getting several requests for specific information about my girlfriends after writing these posts about CR recently.

Don't get me wrong, I am not angry at those individuals that have asked for the information. I do not think less of them for asking, but I do want them to understand why I have not responded back to them. So, rather than appear to be rude, and because I have not individually responded back to them on the issue, I had decided to post something so I could explain my position on the issue, and because it is fertile material for discussion.

I knew my position on the issue would have the potential to open the flood gates for discussion, and that I might be opening myself up to some ridicule. My post is in no way meant to be a slam to other mongers who choose to do otherwise by releasing information they have, nor do I respect a monger any less for not agreeing with my position.

I had written a short explanation of my position and posted it on the board so that all would understand why I don't want to release detailed information on the girls in shotgun effect in forums, or on private message boards, such as what we have available to us on WSG, and on other forums where I am also a member.

Many of the forum administrators and moderators have an identical philosophy to mine...just ask some of them. They love it when we post photos etc., because it enhances their site. But, some of them do not contribute photos and specific details without the consent of their girls for the very reasons I have outlined here.

I am not concerned about giving specific details to mongers I may know personally, including photographs, but I just don't like the idea of posting pictures or giving information about the specifics of my girlfriends to unknown persons in a forum such as this without the permission of my girls. That should not be construed as a criticism of mongers who choose to do so, but it is merely the way I govern my own behavior.

I am not so reluctant to release detailed information on girls that I have known in just a casual sense, but I just can't give information on the girls that I feel a stronger connection to. But, usually, if I have been with a girlfriend more than once, I am starting to feel a connection with her or I would not have returned to her.

Generally, a casual relationship with a girl results if she can not get into my heart. In that case, I usually don't even want to nail her a second time. That is just the way I am. So, in those instances, I do not feel any reluctance in distributing the photos or giving specific details. But, those instances are rare because I generally do not even take photos or write posts unless the girl starts to have some heartfelt connection.

I am opposed to releasing this information in a shotgun effect or to unknown mongers in private messaging format because some guys who receive that information are very foolish with it, and they can really sabotage you with your girlfriends if they don't keep the information and photos to themselves. My girls remember who took those photos, and they would certainly recognize the details of our time together if relayed back to them by some foolish monger.

So, for me, it is safest to keep the specific details about the girl to myself, and to just relate the chain of events. If a monger wants to hook up with any of my girls, he can easily do so from the information contained in my posts. And, if a monger has the incentive to pursue one of my girlfriends on his own initiative, and does connect with one of my girls, I hope he will keep me OUT of there discussions.

All he has to do is visit the clubs I refer to and establish his own relationship with the girl. Of course, that is no guarantee that he will like the girl. We all have varying tastes, needs, and desires, etc. I consider the logistical information provided in my posts to be of value and any specific details about the girls that might have otherwise been included to be relatively useless to most of us.

Anyway, I am receiving private messages about this issue that are running 98% in favor of my position so far. I did get one response that was nasty, calling me naive and self righteous.

By the way, that poster had zero posts on the board, so I would ask why he does not share even the smallest of his own details with us. Of course, perhaps he is commenting to me under an assumed name and does not have the guts to be identified after being so nasty.

But, the other mongers that have been writing to me have been really, really supportive of my position. Thank you all for your support, and for those of you who do not agree with my position…well, you have a right to your opinion, and I respect your opinions none the less.

I think this might be an excellent topic for a poll discussion. It seems to be causing emotions to flare.

Firebird,

Little bit off the Gulch ( about 15 min walk from Del Rey), but you can have a suite with Jacuzzi for about $65 a night. Hotel Royal Dutch, located Calle 4, Av. 2. Phone: (506)233-3927. Very nice modern rooms.

Don't pay more than $79 per night for the Junior suite at Presidente. Roof top Jacuzzi should be booked for the desired time slot in advance. No extra charge for that.

If you want 6th floor rooms in Del Rey, book in advance. They are always in demand.

I have received private messages from guys on the boards as a result of posting some my exploits on this and other boards, and they are asking for specific information about my girls.

Over time, I have adopted a policy to never provide detailed specific information about my girlfriends to anyone unknown to me unless requested to do so by the girl, and I have even decided that posting their photos without their express permission is immoral at best, and I do not feel comfortable betraying them in such a way.

However, if I am personally acquainted with another monger, I do not mind giving specific information because I am not worried about my girlfriend's safety. But, when asked to indiscriminantly distribute detailed information in shotgun fashion, that is when I become concerned.

I know what we do would be considered immoral by many "citizens" out there, and that many people would assume we are all just a bunch of perverts and *****mongers, but my experience has been that most mongers are morally decent law abiding good guys, and many are actually pillars of the communities they live in. Most of us do care about the girls we form relationships with.

Because we are good guys, we do not want to place our girls in any position where their pride or safety may be at risk. If you are like me, I develop relationships with these girls that go way beyond sex, and I actually do care for most of them a lot.

That is my reason for "holding back," and I hope other mongers will understand. This and other forums are for the purpose of making things logistically easier, and the forums should not be a pimping service.

Guys need to find and cultivate relationships with these girls on their own, and not rely upon the results we as individual mongers may have obtained.

I say this because we all have different personalities, and we all probably solicit different and varying reactions from the girls we meet. So, our success is NO GUARANTEE of success across the board.

In addition, preferences differ from monger to monger. So, unless you do your own interview, and turn on the charm yourself, how will you actually know whether a girl is what you are looking for.

I hope most other mongers can understand my postion on these issues and those who are asking for specifics will think twice before they ask in the future.

More from San Jose: I went back to see Brenda at Zona Blue on Wednesday and she didn't disappoint. However, I think she's a definite case of YMMV, and it takes a little work to get her going. That won't be everyone's glass of Pilsen, if you know what I mean.

Last night I visited Molino Rojo. We arrived way too early - about 9:30, and the selection was ver weak. After waiting until around 11:00, things picked up a lot. I spoke some Greek with a chubby but pleasant Tica (Karin), and you know, that's hard to beat for 6,000 colones. After a brief recovery period I hit the cell, I mean room, in the back again with a "blond" Dominicana, who wasn't particularly personable, but gave a very nice CBJ. She wasn't "open" to Greek, but her tight mico made up for it. I can't remember her name, but she's the other blond girl's (the one in the photo section) sister.

All in all, I'd recommend the place, but be careful getting a taxi to get out of that neighborhood. I had 3 guys trying to hustle me for change, which didn't bother me that much, but it might freak some people out. Another similar place, which is a little more expensive (10,000 colones for FS) is Pantera Rosa. I'll have to go back there when I return from Manuel Antonio on Sunday.

I visited a number of other clubs while in San Jose, and most were a disappointment. I started out mongering along the border towns of Mexico, but I’ve settled on regular visits to Monterrey Mexico due to the relatively close proximity of Mexico to the Midwest, and because of business interests that permit me to formulate an excuse to visit there. So, most of my evaluations are based upon comparisons with Monterrey Mexico where I am a frequent and seasoned monger.

I am starting to wonder if because of my experience in Monterrey, where the strip clubs are really quite good and relatively cheap compared to San Jose, I am starting to become somewhat spoiled. But, generally speaking I thought the strip clubs in San Jose where extremely, extremely, expensive.

The cost of a salida for the girls is out of sight in San Jose. It costs at least a minimum of $200, and it can be as high as $315, and then you must generally pay something extra in the form of a tip to the girl in addition to the salida. The salida doesn’t generally cover “todo la noche” either. It’s usually only for a couple of hours.

If the girl stays longer, as was the case with my girl from Josephine’s, she can get in trouble with the club for not coming back to work on schedule. Plus, if you want to get to know the girl before you decide whether she is worth a salida, and only Shakira would probably justify paying the price of these salidas, then you must spend a relatively high amount in drinks to spend the time to converse sufficiently with your sweetheart in order to make a decision about whether she is worthy of those kinds of expenditures.

Drinks are a minimum of $15 for you, and sometimes they give you three drinks for that amount, or they don’t charge a cover charge. But, some of these places have the guts to charge a cover charge and to demand a $15 dollar minimum in drink purchases.

Drinks for the girls are generally astronomically high in price. The girl’s drinks are generally at least $20 each. I could live with a $20 full size beer, except that a $20 beer would also be an astronomically high price, but at least it may take her a while to drink it. But, for $20 they bring the girl a small itsy bitsy glass of wine, or a watered down mixed drink. They can drink that in no time whatsoever. Pathetic…really! Compared to Monterrey, the strip clubs in San Jose are an absolute joke.

However there was one exception to the rule, and that exception was D’Pelufos strip club, which is located outside of San Jose. If you’re staying in San Jose at the Presidente or the Del Ray, you will have to take a cab ride for about 15 minutes to get there. I think it was North of San Jose in San Pedro. I’m not sure of the exact directions to the club, but they are available on the boards. I just took a Taxi, and the driver knew where it was located, so I didn’t have to spell it out to him.

When you arrive at the door, you will be checked for weapons using a wand. So, don’t bring you machine gun, your Glock, your brass knuckles, knives, etc…I arrived very early and I had to wait about 10 minutes just to get through the security checkpoint. So, if you arrive close to the starting time for the show, you may get delayed significantly in trying to get through the security checkpoint. This seemed like a very safe bar to be in, and it is in a safe part of town. I think they complete all the security precautions just as a routine practice simply because there are so many guys there when the show starts, and I guess they know guys will be drinking a lot, so they want to avoid any potential violence that might occur due to alcohol. But, the place seems really very safe, and I was totally comfortable the entire time I was there.

The show doesn’t start until at least 10:30pm, so don’t even bother to show up too early unless you want to reserve a good seat and get through the security checkpoint without too much delay. It is very important to reserve a good seat, because the club is not too comfortable. There are not many chairs to sit on, and most of the guys who show up are required to stand, or to sit on benches around the periphery of a stage area. In addition, the chairs that are available, which are situated only around a few tables near one of the stages, are merely plastic lawn chairs.

This is not a cushy club like Josephine’s or Elite. If you are a Gringo, you may be the only Gringo in the place. But, that having been said, I was perfectly comfortable, and I was actually befriended by a local Tico that was sitting next to my table, and he treated me like a part of his group. He spoke perfect English very well, and was an excellent companion because he would explain what the girls were going to do, etc…

My Tico friend was a professional Engineer, and many of the Ticos that were in the place were dressed business casual with a few guys in ties. So, I assume it is relatively upscale in clientele, but the club isn’t really too expensive, nor does the club have an upscale image. So, I assume that the local Ticos know they can go there to have a good time, to see some really raunchy shows with some really good looking girls and it won’t cost them an arm and a leg to be there.

I was both fortunate and unfortunate when I visited there because I showed up very early, about 9:30pm, and because I was early, and an obvious Gringo, I received the personal attention of the owner of the club, Eric. Eric is a very gracious host and spent a lot of time talking with me and making me comfortable. Because I was early, he urged me to sit at one of the tables where I would have a good view of the stage. He took very good care of me, and if he knows you are there, you are a Gringo, and you show up early, I would expect that you would probably receive the same treatment I did. At 9:30pm there is almost nobody in the place, and nothing, I mean nothing is happening. There aren’t but a few girls, and you only get glimpses of them as they run around the establishment getting ready and tending to whatever bar girls tend to. So, if you show up an hour early, you will just have sit patiently at your table until things start to jump.

I say that I was also unfortunate when I visited there because I was only able to stay until about 11:15pm that evening. I had arranged a date that night with one of my girlfriends. So, I know I missed a lot of fun because I wasn’t able to stay for all of the show. If the rest of the show is anything like what I saw for the first 45 minutes, this place has a lot of promise, and I highly recommend it.

I don’t remember the drink prices exactly, but I think they were reasonable. You pay a cover charge upon entry, which may be relatively high ($10-$20 perhaps-I don’t remember exactly), but it is worth it because I think you get two drinks with the cost of the cover, and the show is worth the cover charge alone.

I don’t drink alcohol, and I am usually ordering Coke Light, so I don’t know what the cost of beer is, and in this case, I didn’t stay long enough to order more than the two diet cokes I was entitled to. But, I don’t think drink prices were too bad. The place was absolutely packed with Ticos by 10:30pm, and the drinks were flowing. You don’t see that kind of crowd in Josephine’s or Elite, so I assume the drinks were reasonable or the Ticos wouldn’t be there.

By the time the show starts you can only see one of the stages because there are so many Ticos in the place that there is standing room only and when you are seated, you just can’t see over the crowd to view the other stage. There is also a bench area around the periphery of the other stage, but I would imagine that if you are seated on the bench area, with the standing crowd in front of you between the stage and your bench, you would have a hard time seeing if you continued to remain seated yourself. Get there early…you won’t regret it.

The show starts off like any strip club. The girl comes out onto stage as the music is playing, and she proceeds to dance, and seductively remove her clothing just like any other strip club you have ever been in. I noticed that the girls were all a little better looking than you would expect in a club like this. They were all very clean girls, and very good looking. They were the same caliber as the girls at Josephine’s or Elite, maybe even a few of them were comparatively better looking than the majority of girls at clubs in San Jose.

But, here is the unbelievable thing. As this girl is dancing she slides up to the end of the stage, and offers here pussy to sample, and if you are sitting in close proximity, or even if you come out of the crowd, you can eat her out right there. Of course, usually it was only one guy per girl electing to do it because no guy wants sloppy seconds, but it was guys in the audience who participated, and not set-ups.

I had seen a show earlier in the week over at Casablanca one night when I was spending time in the club with my girlfriend, and they had brought a guy up on stage, stripped him completely, and done a show with him. But, he never ate a girl out on stage or anything. Then, later, I noticed the guy hanging around near the bar around closing time. I think he was merely a setup, and he was waiting to get paid. I forgot to ask my girlfriend about it, but I’m sure it was all just a show with a paid set up between the club and guy.

But, that does not seem like it is that way at D’Pelufos. My Tico friend indicated that it is all legitimate, and that the guys are just guys from the audience. I think he indicated that he had known some friends that had been on stage with girls in the past, and it was not a setup.

I wasn’t able to stay too long that night, but I saw one guy eat at least two girls that night. This guy was no setup either. He was just sitting at a table along side the bar, and he was in a good position. So, he dined well that night on at least three girls. I think the girls would have let anybody in on the feast if you were interested in sampling them. Of course, I am kind of grossed out by the thought of following somebody else’s act, so I stayed put in my chair. But, these girls were clean and beautiful, and they would have tasted really sweet.

I think I may have seen about five girls dance before I had to leave, and all of them did really raunchy dance routines that were very, very, erotic and raunchy…more so than your typical dance routine in a place like Josephine’s or Elite. These were all very good-looking girls too. But, not all of them offered themselves up for the taste test, but I think I saw at least two girls do that same pussy eating routine.

In addition, they have guys come up on the stage and they do all kinds of things to them. I only stayed long enough to see one guy brought up on stage, but they were stripping him down completely and doing all kinds of things to him. I also saw a lesbian show between two girls and they were eating eat other out on stage.

I assume the show was more of the same kind of stuff the rest of the night, maybe even better. Afterall, I was only there for the first 45 minutes, and from what I saw, I would definitely return to see the remainder of the show. Unfortunately, I never made it back there due to time constraints, but I have to assume that perhaps they save the best performances for the last half hour or so just so they can get guys to hang around and keep buying drinks.

D’Pelufos…a very good time. More of my review of San Jose to follow…

firebird,

while staying at the del rey a few months ago, i secured a standard room on the top floor. during my stay, and while the rooms were opened and being cleaned for the next batch of mongers, i took a look around. the top floor rooms were very large, some with connecting suites and outdoor (wrap-around) balcony. these, i thought would be ideal for the "wolf-pack" mongering that i am planning with a few of my compatriots. by the way, those mongers that have stayed in these rooms, always request them on their return stays. the shower areas were large enough, however, i don't recall seeing any jacuzzi there.

i have also stayed in one of the junior suites during a couple of stays at the presidente. these suites were great in terms of size, style and amenities, and yes, they have decent showers for two. actually, the suite i stayed in was newly remodeled, think they all are. two draw backs: first, my junior suite was very noisy, given its location directly above the main pedestrian walkway. each morning i was awakened by a street musician - very loud from my 5th floor location. second, i hate those super thin pillows and the lack of fitted sheets. just a pet peeve of mine!

unfortunately, i don't remember the presidente room cost, only that it was about us $150, give or take a few.

hope it helps.

[Ace00]

Barco,

They are required to show ID to prove they are of legal age.
That protects them and you.

There is no "health card" in CR.
(Sorry)
Always do the deed covered to protect you and her.

This is a continuation of my original post about my first visit to Costa Rica, and it is painful long. Sorry for the wordiness, but I figured if I am going to relate the story I might as well do it in detail.

I have received a number of private messages indicating that my first segment was generally well received, so I have decided to write a follow-up segment to elaborate on the final hours of my remaining time with my girlfriends from Josephine’s and Casablanca. My third installment may be a review of other clubs if this post is received as well as the first.

On my last night in Costa Rica, I had created another dilemma by agreeing to simultaneously see two girls at virtually the same time. Both of my girls, the one from Josephine’s, and the one from Casablanca, had expressed a strong interest in accompanying me to the airport when I was to return to the USA.

I knew I would have to come up with some kind of game plan to go to the airport with only one of them, but I really couldn’t decide until the last few hours in Costa Rica which of the girls I wanted by my side.

My girl from Josephine’s was constantly on my mind the evening before I was to leave town. I planned to see her in the evening and during the early night hours, and then to get rid of her around 2am, just like every other night, and I assumed that was going to be the game plan because she usually had to return home to Mama and Papa by a certain hour each night.

I wanted to see my Casablanca girl again too before returning to the USA, but I just had to have my Josephine’s girl one more time before I left San Jose. I just couldn’t get that thought out of my mind. I had seen her sin condom by this time, and there didn’t seem to be any additional danger associated with seeing her sin condom again. So, it became kind of an obsession to see her sin condom “one more time for the road.” She is so sexy and so alluring that I just had to have one more bite of the apple.

However, by this time I was not as emotionally attached to the Josephine’s girl, but she was really gorgeous, and I just couldn’t leave her out of my plans. I found that my fondness for her personality was fizzling, and that I actually liked her personality less and less over time. She was not special to me like my girl from Casablanca. But, lust has little to do with love, so…

Lust got the better of me, and I agreed to meet my Josephine’s girl one more time on the evening before I was to leave the next day, which was dangerously close in proximity to the time I was to meet up with my girl from Casablanca for the last time.

I expected my girl from Casablanca to get off work and meet me at the Presidente by around 2am, but even that was tentative arrangement because she had sometimes shown up early in the past. So, I knew it was entirely possible that she would take off work early and show up by 12:30am or 1am, and that I would possibly still be in the company of my girlfriend from Josephine’s. Not a good position to be in, but as I said, my lust won out over my better judgement.

Actually, I was concerned about whether or not my girl from Casablanca was going to show-up at all because she was frustrated with me earlier in the day. I had upset her a couple of hours earlier by telling her that we would not be able to have a permanent relationship, which she was really pushing for. She had left for work frustrated at the notion that I had said that a permanent relationship was not going to be possible. At this point in time she did not realize my family commitments back home, and that a permanent committed relationship was going to be impossible.

She had to go to work, and we never had the time to discuss her frustrations so I could set things straight before she left for work. She displayed a hurt and frustrated attitude prior to leaving to go to work and I just wasn’t sure where I stood after that. So, I wasn’t sure she would even show up after work like we had originally planned.

So, with my relationship with her now hanging in the balance, and rather than chance her not showing up, and possibly not have a girl for the evening, I decided to arrange something with my girl from Josephine’s just to cover all the bases. At this point in time, I figured I had nothing to lose by satisfying my lust for my girl from Josephine’s, and I just couldn’t get her out of my mind.

So, my Josephine’s girl showed up at the Presidente, and I had a good time with her. It was pure lust on my part. But, actually this girl doesn’t really provide the best GFE experience. But, in her favor, she finally started to loosen up by that time. She had several problems that do not make her a great GFE in bed. She had always exhibited an apprehension about receiving oral sex. When we first met, she was actually embarrassed by the prospect of receiving oral sex. But, by this point in time, I had shown her the upside to oral sex, and she was beginning to understand the benefits. I could tell that she was actually now starting to get into it.

As I said, this girl from Josephine’s seemed relatively innocent. It is hard to believe that a girl who is a breathtakingly beautiful professional stripper might be relatively inexperienced and innocent. But, I have run into them before. I know she is relatively inexperienced because a seasoned and experienced pro is not embarrassed or surprised by a guy’s desire for oral sex.

Furthermore, the girl from Josephine’s had to be lead by the hand in almost every way, and she never once showed much initiative in bed. She is not bad in bed, just inexperienced and timid. She reminds me of a typical inexperienced 19-year-old girl with little or no understanding of what it takes to have a great session. You remember them from high school? Some were naturals at it, and some are like a Deere caught in the headlights.

It is for this same reason that many seasoned mongers will testify to the merits of seeing an older women (23-27 year olds) just because of the experience factor. I have learned that lesson too, but as I said, lust got the better part of me on this one. But anyway, she was still fun, and I don’t regret seeing her one last time.

By the time I had finished seeing her on this last night in town, her love making skills were showing some definite improvement, and she was starting to understand how to enjoy sex, which is something I don’t think she understood before.

As I said before, I planned on maybe hooking up with my other girl from Casablanca by about 2am for the rest of the night. Then, my plan was to go to the airport with the girl whose personality I liked the most, and by this time my girl from Casablanca was winning the contest hands down.

So, when I met my girl from Josephine’s that evening I was surprised to learn that she had fabricated a story to her Mama that she was spending the night with a friend. She was intending to be with me all night, and she was planning to see me off at the airport the next day.

She had gone to a lot of trouble to get away from Mama long enough to seal the deal with the Gringo, and possibly reserve her place in the land of milk and honey. I understand her motivations, respect her entrepreneurial spirit, and identify with her need to do as well as she can. But, I know a calculated scam when I see one.

Anyway, when I was in the room with my girl from Josephine’s, I had disconnected the phone in case my girl from Casablanca showed up trying to find me. I figured I would just tell her that something was wrong with the phone if I talked with her later that night, and I wasn’t sure she would show up anyway. But later, I checked with the desk clerk and he informed me that she came looking for me around 1am. Again, I felt like a real jerk that I had stood her up again. It was the second time I had stood this girl up, and she was my favorita. I definitely wasn’t using the right head, and in retrospect, I would probably have preferred being with her all night rather than my girl from Josephine’s.

Anyway, the next morning I decided to ditch my girl from Josephine’s. There was a final straw that broke the Camel’s back . It was when she began asking me for money so she could pay for her future apartment. I guess I just snapped at that point and decided I was wasting whatever time I had left in Costa Rica. I was starting to panic that I may not see my favorita from Casablanca again before leaving Costa Rica, and love won out. I ditched my Josephine’s girl as quickly as I could. I used the excuse that I had to get packed and that she would not be coming to the airport with me because I didn’t want an emotional goodbye scene.

After I ditched my girl from Josephine’s, I called my girl from Casablanca and asked if she was mad at me. She said she was really hurt that I didn’t answer the phone when she came to see me at the hotel that night. I asked if she would come to see me and have breakfast with me before I was to leave for the USA. She agreed and told me she would be at the Presidente by 9am. She showed up with a big smile, we kissed and hugged, and we acted like real lovebirds. I was really glad to see her. I really like her personality a lot.

Anyway, she asked me not to return to the USA, and wanted me to stay another 4 or 5 days. I told her it was impossible, and I asked her to come with me to the airport to see me off. Prior to going to the airport we lay on the bed in my room and kissed and hugged and listened to some classic rock and popular music from the USA, and she was like a kitten purring on my lap. There was no sex, but it was a wonderful, warm, affectionate GFE. It was just perfect in every way.

So, we finally left the hotel around 11am for the airport. She waited with me at the airport, kissing me and hugging me all the time. She cried several times as we talked because she realized that I would be leaving soon. She asked me if we could be novia and novio. She asked if it would be possible for me to return to see her at least as often as every month. I said it wasn’t possible, but that I might see her periodically. I explained to her about my family obligations, and she began to realize that we were not going to be able to see each other frequently.

I told her she would always be in my heart. I assumed that she also probably wanted to be in my wallet as well. I know that sounds cynical, but I don’t think she loves me any less for her desire for money. The two really don’t have much to do with one another, except that some girls are great actresses, and their efforts are only to solicit money. This girl was not like that. She really loved me, but she needs money…don’t we all…I don’t fault her for it.

Anyway, I went through the security checkpoint at the gate, and we looked back at each other and I waived goodbye. She waived back and turned and put her head in her hands as she started to walk away. We both looked back at each other as I walked toward the gate, and she started to cry again. Ahhhh, what a beautiful GFE it was, really.

Anyway, we have emailed every other day since I returned, and I have contacted her on her cell phone once just to say hello. Her emails have been heartfelt and sad that I am not there with her. She told me she has such feelings of loneliness and that she misses me deeply, and with this one I believe it.

It is sad really because here is a girl who has a job in a club where she meets men all night long, she sees at least one man sexually every week to make extra money, and she is still extremely lonely. It makes my heart ache. But, my experience is that many of these girls are really lonely. It would not take much to convince them to leave the profession and go legitimate if the need for a reasonable amount of money, and the need for a loving committed relationship were satisfied.

I am not saying I would choose one of them as a steady girlfriend or as wife material because you would always wonder if they were being faithful wives or girlfriends. But, hey, girls who are not professionals are not always faithful either. I think it just depends on the girl. Anyway, she is my buen amiga, and a good part-time novia, so I will see her again in August when I return to Costa Rica. I plan on returning to Costa Rica for a day or two, and then it’s on to either Colombia or Rio. I haven’t decided which of these destinations I am going to visit next.

Next report…a vicious attack on all the other clubs I visited in San Jose, most of which were a BIG disappointment.

Upcoming first trip to SJ. One of the points I look for when selecting a hotel is that the rooms are large, comfortable and that there is a fairly large shower area for me and the lady. Once in a while I get a room with an jacuzzi or a large bathtub for two to play in.

I have heard some good reports concerning the Presidente Hotel.
I am thinking of booking the Junior Suite.

Can anyone tell me if there is a shower large and comfortable enough for two? Do any of the rooms have a "jacuzzi"?

I have heard about that it is possible to rent the "roof top" jacuzzi. Has anyone tried this? What is the cost for this "rental"?

Can anyone recommend other nice quiet hotels with large rooms and "comfortable" bathrooms to play in near the "action"?

Cost is not an issue.

Thanks for help.

keep dreaming barco,

girls are not required to show any sort of health papers to enter the del rey. according to a few girls a talked with, a lot of girls get tested very rarely or not at all. also, she said she new of 1 girl with the hiv who she blamed on "dirty men". the girls are required to show their id at the door to verify age as so that us gringos don't get arrested for **** activities and probably for the protection of the bar. all girls are required to show id before going to your room at most hotels, and most hotels will call your room before the girl leaves to verify that your still alive (joking, but i'm sure there are some girls that would attempt to rob you while your in the shower). but anyhow, on my first trip i heard the rumor of health checks and such, but soon realized that was just a fantasy to help justify bad my habits.

so be safe and don't be crazy with all the dfk, bbbj and bareback. (dfk after a girl just gave another guy a bbbj, yuck)

Barco,

I MAY be mistaken about this, but my info on the so-called HEALTH CARDS that the Chicas supposedly have to show, is that there isn't any such thing.

What they all carry is a CEDULA, or an ID card which is issued by the government of their respective (Latin American) country, usually only when they turn 18. I have gotten to know several Ticas over the years and asked them about it, and that's the answer I always got. There MAY be a health card per se but I've never seen one in 11 years, and one of those Ticas I've known since my second day in CR. She speaks perfect English and I don't believe she would have misunderstood the question.

I hope this clears up a common misconception.

Regarding possible STD's in the Del Rey:

I thought all the women were required to show current health cards to even enter the Del Rey. Is this correct?

I will be going to CR for the first time on oct 9th for 2 weeks. If someone is planning to go at this time, I can use your company.
Please email me at [Email Address deleted by Admin]

Thanks,

First trip report from San Jose: I arrived 7/13 and after some initial repulsion at the Gran Hotel I went out to procure some necessities. It turned out that the hotel isn't so bad -just old and noisy during the day.

In the early evening I made my way over to Zona Blue and was given a tour by Tatiana. Wanda (very nice) served me a (free) beer and then I started to feel a bit odd since all the chicas came into the room and just sat there waiting for me to choose one of them. What do you guys do in this situation? I attempted some small talk which wasn't too hard since my Spanish is decent, but I still felt a little awkward. Anyway, sitting closest to me was a delightful Tica named Brenda, and off we went to a room.

Initial conversation revealed that Brenda is 23 with 2 kids, but you'd never notice. She's brunette, fairly tall, muy flaquita, small breasts, which is just exactly what I like. I'd give her an 8 or 9, but I wouldn't expect others to agree. I skipped the sauna (not my thing) and received a so-so massage. Then the fun started - BBBJ, DFK, DATY (she had been a little standoffish up to this point, but magically warmed up), multiple positions, then a hand finish. Oddly, she offered uncovered FS, which I declined. She's apparently new and could use some education on health hazards. I didn't ask about Greek, but it might be on the menu.

I chatted with Wanda a bit afterward, and I have to say ZB is a first-class operation. As a matter of fact, I might have to head back right now!

I also checked out the BM and Key Largo, but didn't see anything I liked. I bought beers for a Colombiana and Venezolana to practice my Spanish, and they were cool, but nothing doing.

More tomorrow. Hope this is helpful.
