Talk with them the same you would any other woman on the planet. A grown man needs tips on how to get a girlfriend? Two people meet, they talk, they like each other.

No cultural differences in picking up Latinas vs western women? My Spanish isn't there yet anyway but wondering.

General tips on getting Colombian GFs? Except being Tall hah.

The Tall Man has been everywhere in Colombia over the past 30 years of travel here, yep 30 years, now living in Medellin for over 10 years and still traveling to every city and town and pueblo in Colombia. Have had probably 1,000 Colombian women, most great experiences along with a handful of horrific ones but only a handful so good odds, have had Colombian GF's lasting from 2 weeks to 2 years with Colombians from every different region, and my biggest trouble is not wanting to fall in love with some of these beauties, not bragging but still (if I wanted) get 3 to 5 whatsapps from chicas just about every time I venture into Medellin on the metro or in a restaurant or a shop, that's the beauty of life here full time. You have no idea.

Back on point never forget the cardinal rule with most Colombian women, "she is not YOUR girl rather it's just YOUR turn".

Carry on grasshopper.

The Tall Man.

Damn, that's a lot of experience.

...still traveling to every city and town and pueblo in Colombia.

Is there a P4 P venues scene (casas, strip clubs) in pueblos and small towns or is it a city thing?

I can only say that I have met a young paisa, Valeria!

She is a typical Pocahontas; very cute, small, 150 cm, and slim, long black hair, nice eyes; hot temper!

(150 centimetres = 4. 92 feet.).

She is 23 years old, I am 43, she is real, authentic!

I can tell the difference between an ordinary interesada and Valeria. She is truly passionate about her four-year-old son, she is passionate about getting out of poverty, not just about getting high and becoming a well-paid prepago and webcam model.

Which I don't see anything wrong in itself, but most of the profit is often wasted on luxury, not investment in education or language learning!

So she wants both a new world and a man; there are no opportunities in Colombia while "you have everything". She wants to go to Scandinavia! She is very affectionate. She's not looking for luxury in the first place, but wants to be a "professional woman", preferably in some slightly outwardly boring profession for a young beauty, as she likes maths, organising and all that.

But also incredibly in love, this can only happen in magical Medellin / Colombia; not in the cold North or in Buenos Aires or Peru!

In Skandivavia, maybe also USA, Buenos Aires; it can't happen!

I mean; so beautiful, so young, very intelligent. But without resources.

Now for no reason that I understand, the Dollar began to rise again. Now between 4000 and 4100 Having exchanged many many dollars on many years and trips to Colombia I will never understand the whole currency thing.

On a side note lots of chatter in the states about masking up be / see of the new variant. I had it about a month ago, much worse for me than the first covid which was 3 days and good as new, This one kicked my ass for a solid week, headaches and fatigue like I never felt before, 7 days in bed and then another week or so to get close to normal. In my case it started with a runny nose, and got worse from there. If you get a runny nose be alert! I hope we don't get back into the whole quarantined thing and mask rules.

Went to exchange yesterday, no cabrios in Cartegena wanted to budge over 3700.

The latest installment in the never-ending saga of the CheckMig form, it appears they've fixed it. Going through the Migracion website link, it worked perfectly, downloaded and emailed the completed form to me.

My timing was good today. Flight got in early, short line and no problems. Rental car company gave me a double free upgrade and less than 1 hour after landing I was in Medellin.

Its better than before with the new update, I finished mine in less than 2 minutes and received 2 emails in seconds (appeared to be duplicates). Some are still going to ivisa.com and paying but to each their own.

What I liked most about the updated site is that my country of birth is now in English so it's easier to find, but my nationality its still in Estados Unidos.

The check mig is just going to confuse readers if they should do it or not.

It's that there are multiple variables and when users post some info is omitted.

1. Origin departing Airport code.

2. Airline.

3. Airport of first entry into Colombia.

Last week I flew in on Jet Blue out of JFK to CTG, they did not allow me to bag drop or board unless they saw the form was filled out.

My boy flew in Sunday the 20th, same shit with him, but them made him print out a paper pass and see the gate agent to pre check his form was filled out before they started pre boarding.

Another one of my boys flew in yesterday, Monday, same shit. He had to show it was filled out and got a smiley face on his paper pass.

This have been happening since 2021 on every trip out of JFK on Jet Blue. But for 2 minutes of time I don't want to be that person getting stopped at the last minutes because I didn't fill it out. With my luck, I would be that person to get stopped LOL.

Maybe this can explain: Petro wants to renegotiate a trade agreement with the US.

Yes, but that is already reflected in the "real" rate of interest, which is based on risks such as default and liquidity.

And we all know how this one will turn out.

She is like a little black female cat, gatita. Hot and willing, but also intelligent.

She wants to study and be "demasiado seria".

So this doesn't cost any money, because being a monger is hardly a cheap lifestyle.

I don't really want to, but she's already taken over. She's so passionate and strong-willed that there's no stopping her; she gives everything sexually and is usually happy and lively, interspersed with typical Latin energy outbursts, which I'm lucky to have escaped with my life.

Perhaps this is a way of paying back to Medellin / Colombia. I give her access to a rich welfare state with free university education and healthcare!

She will leave me for a younger guy later, but first we will have fun for a few years!

Did you still have to do check mig I did 1 and 2 months ago Bucaramanga though.

I did not do it entering or leaving the country.

Bogota has revamped the entrance to the exiting immigration. Today I went to use Biomig. Foreigners use the bigger machines. The slim ones are for Colombians. You put your passport in. After it scans, you type in your flight number. Then it takes your picture. Unfortunately the machine was not recognizing my face so the chick helping with the machines took me over to the shortest line. It worked fine for another American guy. I even tried the kiosk he went to after, but nope.

Inflation is another case. You got the definition right there (thanks for quoting me and not giving me credit)

Actually, I wasn't quoting you and did not notice you had made that exact reference. It's not original to you either and you didn't cite. But as you pointed out, it's in every Econ 101 textbook. For a more specific quote, you have Milton Friedman: 'Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon. ".
