First it would depend on your ticket. If you are just supposed to be transiting then you may have to follow the international connection line and not be allowed to leave out. If you are allowed to leave out, then immigration in Bogota usually has hella long lines. You better order a wheelchair and act handicap if you plan on getting through that line quick. And don't forget you have to go back through immigration to leave out of the country, which is usually long too. You could do it if immigration was not a factor, but I would not even try it since it is. I will be in Lima from the 4th until the 9th of next month if you are around.

And that's not considering the traffic. The wrong time of day it's going to take at least an hour each way by taxi. If there's no long line at immigration, if he takes the Transmilenio, he might be able to spend 30 minutes, but that's a lot of ifs.

Going to Peru via Bogota. Has three hour layover and was wondering is it enough time to go to El Centro ? Not a mongering visit. Going with a girl from here. Just want to take a look and back to airport. Peru trip to see sights, macchu Picchu, Lake titicaca, Lima and other sights.

Looking online it says need only half hour by taxi. Anybody know? Thanks for the info.

Question. Which banks in Medellin seem to give the best exchange rate?

I can't say for sure, but I don't think banks exchange currencies for non-account holders. They all give almost the same rate from their ATM's, but the ATM fees vary. BBVA and Davivienda are the only ones I know of that don't charge ATM fees.

Cancun is an truly international destination and there are many Colombian tourists and families who regularly visit Cancun area and that I have met there. Yet the Mexican authorities are also aware of the Colombian girls reputation and assume they're hookers unless it can be proven otherwise.

Read your post again. There is a difference between families and groups of friends and 1 lone female. That logically sets off alarms as drug mule or transported for sex. Especially if the girl does not have a job or even one that would pay her enough to be able to travel there.

Hi,

I'm meeting a friend in Playa del Carmen that lives in Colombia. I've done this before with a chic from Peru and the she was required to show 500 USD equivalent currency at Lima airport before allowed to bored plane. This is to show that they have enough to get there and back. Any one know if its the same for Colombians departing Colombia for mexico? Thanks!

Yet the Mexican authorities are also aware of the Colombian girls reputation and assume they're hookers unless it can be proven otherwise. About a year ago, my Colombian GF who is a pharmacist didn't have any problems getting on the plane but was given the third degree upon landing in Cancun 1) because we traveled separately 2) because hotel reservation was under my name only. She had to show her official medical ID card and her credit card and a copy of my passport before they let her through.

She will not have to show a specified amount to leave Colombia, but getting out of the airport in Mexico is hit or miss. Make sure she has proof that she has a lodging reservation. She should dress conservatively. She should list a legitimate occupation and be prepared to describe what she does in that occupation. If she arrives in sexy attire and tells them she doesn't know where she is staying because her friend is meeting her at the airport, you will probably not see her. She will be denied entry.

I went to the Dominican once with a Colombiana. She was dressed super sexy (super tight pants and her big surgically modified porn star tits practically hanging out). I didn't have any issue but I traveled with her. Immigration in DR didn't say a word to us. Just stamped us in. I also did Aruba with the same chica. Same deal. I traveled with her, connecting from Panama, and they just stamped us through.

I can see it would have been different if she went alone though.

I had a buddy that tried to do that about a year ago and they did not let his Colombiana enter Mexico, so it was a wasted trip and a bunch of wasted money for him. He was in Mexico City and not Cancun though.

Hi,

I was wondering if the scene is still worth visiting during the holidays. Also are any of the strip clubs open on New Years in Medellin or Bogota?

I was in Bogota in February and had an amazing time in Santa Fe. La fiebre and paisas were amazing taking 4 girls a night upstairs. Was wondering what it's like these days?

I was in Medellin and enjoyed fade dos and La Isla girls club some beautiful women every night.

Are there any other good places I've missed in these cities?

Not worried about $20. I am concerned about not being able to make calls or texts over wifi. What good would the service do me? Asking a genuine question. I can take my Iphone and the Google FI simcard to Colombia later this month. But if I can't make wifi calls or texts, I am not seeing the benefit of having the service.

You just have to check the link. I have an Android phone a Pixel no less designed to work with the service. And as somebody who travels to four or five countries a year I could not live without my Google fi service. I understand it might be a different calculation for someone who does not travel as frequently or has a phone that is less compatible. I think the service is so great it's worth giving it a shot for at most $20, but I'm not twisting anybody's arm.

Thanks. I'm still trying to figure it out. I think I might go the way of meeting one on cupid and try to get her Facebook as a start. I don't know how else to work the Facebook game.

Much of the result you'll get from your FB, ColombiaCupid, etc effort will depend on how much time you'll have at your destination. Are you content with one or two chicks per day? Are you going to be ok if one of the "dates" you've arranged shows up late and messes up your planned day or worse don't show up at all? How much time do you want to allocate to chasing these chics over dinner, drinks, etc? Are you looking for a relationship or a just a a bang? I didn't try FB but I did try CC and Instagram but abandoned the idea once on the ground because I was there for 4 days only and there were plenty chicas all around everywhere. I had arranged to meet 5 girls; 3 delayed our date when I arrived, one was traveling, and the lastI cancelled because I had a better option available. Assuming some Spanish skills just saying hola to an attractive girl in a bar or the mall food court or Plaza Botero had more immediate results / benefits. My limited time didn't allow for multiple "dating" events to get a chica in the sack. My 2 pesos.
