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!

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.

Hey gents,

If you looking for a Girl / Chica friendly hotel in Medellin, maybe this video can help you, this fellow has some great info.

Oh yeah ask him about the strip club video he has. https://youtu.be/nlDRssXDEiI.

It's not key. It's useful in Medellin. You get one and keep adding her friends on facebook essentially. I don't do it myself.

One last question I forgot to mention. I keep reading how Facebook is key down there and how people have many possibilities from Facebook. How do you go about finding them on Facebook? How does that game work?

For $20 for the first month you can try it out. I suspect if you cancelled in less than a month they would either refund the full $20 or prorated it.

I looked at Fi on Wednesday. In the linked article, there are several warnings about limitations on using Iphones with Fi. "iPhone use, however, is still in "beta," which means users should be prepared for bugs, and won't be able to use certain features like visual voicemail and international tethering. IPhones also won't be able to make calls and texts over Wi-Fi. ".

I think I have shilled for google Fi here before. For americans it is a great international mobile voice and data service but I have used rather in extensively in many countries including columbia, the philippines, thailand, Cambodia, malaysia, Indonesia, Australia but you get the idea. You can save a few pesos getting a local sim card but for me the convenience of having my phone on an active wheels down in a new country is more than worth a couple of dollars period. The knock on google Fi used to be it didn't support a wide varriety of phones (I love my Pixel), but it now supports many Samsung and iPhone models. If interested see below, we both get a $20 services credit if you sing up. Feel free to mesage me with any questions.

Just a quick question about Medellin. I'm looking for a place to stay when I'm down there. How is Pabladorentals.com? They seem to all be guest friendly.

Also is there anyway to change the order of the post, I'm not use to the newest at the top.
