Posts: 16Assumptions of a newbie
I have been lurking on ISG for a while now and have never been interested in international mongering since I believe I live in a city that has lots to offer on that regard. That impression has changed after I viewed a couple of pictures of Colombian ladies, so in the past couple of days I have read almost all the forum on Colombia (yes I have become obsessed).
I am posting here the conclusions I have come to and the plans I am making. Some of my logic might be wrong but it is based on the ‘general feel’ that reports gave me.
First I had to choose between Medellin and Cartagena. Cartagena seems to be more fun because of more ‘hunting’ and has a beach but I speak no Spanish so I decided to choose Medellin since they have facilities that offer you ‘more assistance’ and I really like the Paisas look.
Once I made that choice then I had to ask myself what seems to be the one million $ question: VIP or Mension?
Lots of finger pointing has been exchanged:
-MM has been ACCUSED of having a drunk commander in chief and the presence of younger ladies has been hinted at.
-VIP has been ACCUSED of posting pictures of unavailable ladies and overcharging in some cases.
Fortunately they seem to have buried the hatchet (and please do not respond to these critics I have capitalized ACCUSED for an obvious reason)
On the opposite side the good points seem:
- MM has tons of ladies always available and has more of a ‘party feel to it’.
- VIP seems to be a bit calmer and to be a bit more customer service oriented.
So the choice depends on your preference but for me I can fit in both these environments so after some reflection it hit me: WHO CARES? Where are the girls I like most? So I copied all pictured in each of their thread dating until beginning 2007 and compared them to see which I like most. It didn’t make it really easier for me but I have a small lean toward VIP so I sent them a request for room availabilities and have not yet received an answer (it has been 48 hrs). My vacation is only planed in March so I am in no hurry but if they do not answer soon then I will have to take my business elsewhere.
This is my impression and the summary of my readings. One thing is for sure as soon as I learn minimal Spanish I will try Cartagena.
Hope this helps newbies like me and thank you to all mongers that have contributed extremely useful information.
PS: I would have liked to upload these folders but I do not know if it is against board policies (they are not my pictures but the ones already posted by other mongers) plus even after being zipped they are 2. 6 and 4. 2 MB so ISG will not permit their upload unless if Jackson wants I can email them to him and he might want to upload them.

You looked like a ¨pooffter¨ at Mango´s the other night ¨Hallowen¨dressed as a ¨well I´m still scracking my head¨
I was going as a brocken down Aussie rugby player, and then I thought Huge Hefner, well maybe next year, I still got drunk !!! thats the main thing.
(I also got back with the misses, she realized, after me, no other men can come close !!!!!!)

Gregg,
Thanks for your comments and your business. We will certainly reciprocate
whenever possible.
We certainly believe that in the future there will be more business than either of us can handle.
Sincerely,
Albert Licht

As for stupid gringo´s buying property in Medellin, I guess there are quiet a few now.
Down Under Group has never owned property here in Medellin, they lease both the property´s and nobody has purchased a interest in the property that I know of, its all very interesting isnt it.

Not too hard to understand I hope.

PS. Oh Yeah, stay at either place and they can set you up with HOT! Paisas like this one below. Afterall, isn't this really what the bottom line is all about gents?

Posts: 207Are you kidding
Isn't El Castillo apart of the mansion, offically? Or were they able to sucker some stupid gringo into giving them CASH for a percent of property? And now its a seperate entity? WOW, I hope that isn't the case.

Posts: 44What about Elcastillo?
We are just two streets up from the mansion. Don't forget about Elcastillo.
We have 11 rooms great staff. Read about our service. You can book with Yule at the Mansion. I give better service than both of them IMHO.
