General Info

[Meat Loaf]

Thanks for all the direction information. Let me clarify directions.
arriba = east (where the sun comes up)
abajo = west (where the sun goes down)
al lago = north (towards lake managua)
los montanas = south (towards the mountains to the south of managua)

The map which you gave a website for is actually pretty old. You will notice the old railroad along the south side of lake managua ...... hasn't been a railroad there in 20 years. A lot of the streets are different now. The map is not accurate on the main street coming south from Laguna Tiscapa. The new east-west "by-pass" down by UNAN isn't even on the map. This map will be OK, but then again, if you don't know your way around Managua it is pretty tough to rent a car.

Cool. Managua should do like everyone else and have real addresses and directions, none of this reference mapping.

Your clarification is accurate and better than mine!

Thanks

Noguera,

Managua Directions are: (1) arriba = the direction of the airport; (2) abajo = heading towards Honduras and North America; (3) a lago = north; and (4) al sur = south. The directions are based on the lake which Managua sits on the souther tip, not the world map.

Additionally, I have relocated to Panama City as of last week and will attack this mongering scene full of Colombians, Dominicans, and Panamanians as I did Managua. Hopefully other mongers will use my 8-months of residency and mongering experience to their advantage. Grand Pollo you may re-assume your role as Nicaragua expert! And where have you been lately GP?

Good Luck Fellas'

Actually ... Meat, I think your directions will put the taxi one block too far west (abajo). Why don't you check this out next time you are over in Monsenor Lezcano. Also, from Vale Todo you can't go abajo because the street in front of Vale Todo only runs arriba.

But you live in Managua so people should actually listen to you, buddy.

Thank you all for your responses !

I'm planning a 2 week Mongering/Exploration/Diving trip to either Central America or Northern South America. I have researched alot of areas on ISG.

In your opinon, which country in Central America or South America is the best for my goals, that is, long term residency, and fishing/dving, not just mongering:

MY Objectives:

I want to both dive, fish and to monger

I am semi-retired, work as a consultant and would like a place to eventually move to. Therefore I am not there just as a tourist but rather to move there.

1. I love to dive and catch lobster and fish so a coastal location would be great. I prefer the atlantic water [caribbean] over the pacific (I am a Florida Boy at heart). Finding a cheap equivalent of the Florida Keys with lots of Lobster and lots of cute chicas would be the best place. I am not a highly skilled fisherman/hunter (for actual fish that is - not for chicas), so I need a place with abundant sea life.

2. I love latina women, but of the latinas I prefer the european looking ones. Basically I am a fan of whiter skin. Mulattas are OK. I speak a passable spanish.

3. I am more into finding non-pro / semi-pros. For me GFE is extremely important. I love a girl who has a great attitude and great enthusiasm in the sack. No fat chicks

4. Last of all (but not least of all), value (bang for the buck) is important to me.

5. Safe country

From my USG Research, Here Is What I've Found (This is based on comments I've seen in the forums, not my own opinion as I have never visited any of these places)

I am hoping the members in this forum can add to the following and give me your opinions:

Colombia: Pros: Great GFE. Beautiful Women.
Cons: Has gotten expensive, Dangerous(kidnapping). Wouldnt feel safe living there or buying property there.

DR: Pros: None.
Cons: Expensive, DArker Girls.

CR: Pros: Beautiful Women. Alot of oppurtunities for mongering
Cons: Expensive Girls. Expensive Land. OVerrun with Gringos.

Ecuador: Pros: Inexpensive Mongering, Pretty Chicas, Safe
Cons: Pacific Coast with Crappy Diving, High Altitude, Limited oppurtunity for semi-pro (all mongering is in the Chongos/Casas - which by the way is not that bad)

Nicaragua: Pros: Inexpensive Mongering, Inexpensive Land, Safe
Cons: MGA is a dump, a wreck of a town, Nicaragua as a whole is a dump(Say other people), prostitution is illegal, picking up streetwalkers is ill-advised, the quality of the chicas in the casas is poor (only a 6 or a 7).

Guatemala: Pros: Inexpensive Mongering,
Cons: unsafe, nice to visit, probably wouldnt want to live there.

El Salvador: Pros: Inexpensive Mongering,
Cons: pacific coast (poor diving), unsafe, nice to visit, probably wouldnt want to live there.

Belize (out of the question):
Pros: awesome diving, carribbean location. Zero Mongering,
Cons: unsafe, nice to visit, probably wouldnt want to live there.

Honduras: Pros: Nice diving, pacific locations. Inexpensive Mongering,
Cons: unsafe, nice to visit, probably wouldnt want to live there.

Based upon my criteria, how would you rank:
Nicaragua, Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras ?

In Conclusion: Which country in Central America or South America is the best for my objectives ?

Thank You in advance.

This is to Water boy. You will no have lucke for the local newpaper for the classified advers. There I understand is a prohibited to post in the newspaper for the electronic form. http://www.elnuevodiario.com. Ni/clasificados and then push on the mouse on Belleza. Your best bet is to change the date. Then you can get before today. Anyhows I can testify for BELLA MARY'S, they usually have some early in the AM "thick" gurls, but it depends on your fetish. If you go first of the thing in the am then maybe you can get girl in the good attitude. I am only trying to contribute to the forjum. You can catch a womean with more good attitude there in the AM and then they will not quote you $50 if you are foreigner. There at times are the girls that go "entero". I sorry about my english as I could study more.

Your description is exactly correct. There is a #14 on the house (at least there used to be). Let us know about your visit.

[Brazil Lover]

I will share my experience with you..

I found GFE to be largely lacking, but I did have one very good GFE experience with a casa chica. She even came to my hotel on another night.

Lookswise, I'd say you can generally find 3-6s or so in the casas, but I can't say I saw anything higher than a 7 in any casa I visited. I did see some pretty nice ones on the street, but that's a dangerous proposition. The girls in the stripclubs, however, were very attractive, albeit extremely expensive for a 3rd world country.

For semi-pros, try the Malecon (on the lake) or Matrix. The girls are better looking at Matrix, but they're 'easier' at the Malecon.

All that said, however, you should not have much trouble finding a girl who is of the "Me Gusta" level (but I must admit I don't see much difference between her and the "Mejor Que No" girl).

I'd like to go to Nica in the next 1-2 weeks. Will stay for 2 weeks. I will spend 1 week in MGA one week on the beach.

I have read thru the Managua forum (pretty much all 27 pages). I am especially indebted to Gran Pollo and his tireless efforts and time spent posting useful information and helping out others on the forum. A El Gran Pollo: Muchas Gracias - estoy agradecido.

I speak a passable spanish. Say at the level of a 3rd grader. Dont talk too fast and I'll be OK. I dont need a translator. For some reason I am not that good understanding precios (the numbers) in a checkout lane. For a mongerer - this could be a serious downfall.

Question What Is The General Beauty OF The Pros & Semi-Pros in MGA? (Specifically the Casas Girls)

From the posts, I realize that the Nicaraguense are not as pretty as Colombianas. I am concerned by the fact that their are alot less photos in this forum than say Guatemala and Panama. Why is that?

As El Gran Pollo has admonished repeatedly: I am specifically interested in the Casas girls, and secondarily in Semi-Pros.

I have heard people ranking women in this forum as 7's 8's and 9's these numbers dont mean much. One man's 6 is another man's 9. So I will try to describe my tastes:

Of course, I love latina women. Mulattas are OK, but I prefer the european looking faces. I am not a big fan of big titted Playboy Model type. No escort types for me. I really like natural looking, but pretty. I like skinny women. 18 - 29.

For me GFE is extremely important. I love a girl who has a great attitude and great enthusiasm in the sack. Of course I love a girl who is willing to do everything: BBBJ, Swallow.

To illustrate, I posted two photos gleaned from this forum. I like the "Me Gusta" picture. She is my favorite. The "Mejor Que No" girl, while doable, really isnt my cup of tea. (I hope the "Mejor Que No" girl is not anyones novia.)

To the members how many of the Casas girls (i.e. what percentage) are "Me Gusta"s or better ? 10% 20% 5% ?

Gracias

Hello,

Has anyone put postings to here for while I been gone? Trying to visualize the Claudias to my head, if I go up the main avenue and the intersection where the vale todo stree is to my left and the of the statue to the saint is to mi right, then I go up more one bloque, then I direction to the left, one bloque then my right, then it is to the second or third building on the left of the street correct?

[Noguera]

Actually ... Meat, I think your directions will put the taxi one block too far west (abajo). Why don't you check this out next time you are over in Monsenor Lezcano. Also, from Vale Todo you can't go abajo because the street in front of Vale Todo only runs arriba.

[Meat Loaf]

Thanks Noguera! Go to the Monsenor Lezcano statue and face towards the lake. To your left maybe 5-10 meters is the major street going north/south. Take that main street north (al lago). Cross the street that goes past the front of Vale Todo (this is a one way street going east, arriba). Go one more block and turn left on the one way street going west (abajo). Go one block west and turn right (al lago). Maybe the 2nd or 3rd house on the left is Claudia's, with the #14 on the front.

Another way to get there, via taxi, is "Vale Todo" en Monsenor Lezcano, 1 cuadra abajo, 1.5 cuadras a lago, casa #14 is written on the front of the house.

Post a report on your adventure. This is a pretty young thing that I last did at Claudia's.

Thanks Noguera! I shall go to see this place now once return to Managua.

[Fantasy]

I am currently in the middle of my managua leg of my trip. I will post a report when I finish. Maybe it will help make your decision a little easier. One thing I can tell you is, no need for a wingman here, but I have run into very few gringos here, so someone to hang with during the day might be a more appropriate description if thats something that interests you.

[Stevewxly]

I'm looking for a wingman for a mongering trip in Managua or San Salvador....then San Jose, then David, Panama then Panama City......on or about October 5th....for a 10 - 12 day trip.

I've been to Costa Rica and Panama many times....so I know the drill there, but it will be my first trip to El Salvador or Nicargua.... and I've not yet decided which destination will be best yet. Nicargua is easier to get into and get out of.....but San Salvador looks like the women may be slightly better, and prices better. ?????

Please PM me if interested.......Steve

[Noguera]

Sorry Meat

I haven't been there in quite a few years. I used to like the place though!
