Bogota Reports

[Marrowbone68]

Santa Fe is indeed buzzing. Street walkers all day and night, Troya full by 9 PM, apparently stays open till 3 am which I understand is 3 hours in to the nightly curfew.

Street walkers quoting 40 k for 20 minutes (means 10) and 70 k for 30 minutes (means 20). I've RTFF and get that I should be telling not asking so presumably others are paying less and getting longer times. I was struck by how they all quoted the same, that's new to me. I always find them a disappointing experience, unlike the casas.

Worldtraveller69, Blancos why Negros Rumba bar seems have closed down, changed hands and be something else now.

Santa Fe is wide open as far as street chicks and restaurants. My freakin barber shop is closed so that sux. Well they are actually there but all the chairs are out on the sidewalk. I asked if they were doing business and they said no. I came to eat chicken at the spot next door to it though. 2 big ass pieces, a pile of fries, and juice for 8,500 pesos.

There were already 4 chicks eating in a group among other people. There is a railroad crossing display and the chicks wanted to take pictures in front of it before they left. They went one by one but they were about to leave and wanted a pic together. They asked me to take the picture for them. I said only if I can take it with my phone too. So I took them with mine then tried with hers. Her phone was a piece of garbage and I could not even fit all of them in the frame. I showed them the pix in my Galaxy Note 20 and they were estatic. I got the one chick's whatsapp so I could send the pictures. They asked where I was from and I said Brazil as usual. I asked another one of the chicks (Karen) if she had whatsapp and she did not. She said to just send a message through Erica.

Good to know about.

Cendiatra. You didn't need to go by Cab however, it was easier walking, usying the pedestrial bridge across the highway. By car you need to go all the way around.

35 minute walk. I was staying on Calle 95. Taxi was 7,500 plus I had my luggage.

[Routard]

Cendiatra was good. No appointment needed. Takes 1 hour. And best of all 80,000 pesos.

I spent time online yesterday looking for a place to take the covid test. Everywhere was closed on Sunday (except for the airport which was full), but I managed to make reservations at 2 different Synlabs because I did not know if I would leave Chapinero and go stay downtown or not. Most places were wither 140,000 or 150,000. I had found one place for 100,000 but whenever I tried to pay online for that place it would give me an error message.

My ex-girlfriend from Cali flew back home last night so I had my nurse come over. I told her that I had to find a place to get a covid test. She told me that Cendiatra was good. No appointment needed. Takes 1 hour. And best of all 80,000 pesos.

This morning at 10:30 she left to go to a meeting. I booked a hotel near Atlantis Mall and called Cabify to take me to the clinic. We passed one and I shouted out. He said chill, you are in good hands. He dropped me off at the address. I went in and told the ladies I needed an antigen test. They said they did not do covid tests there, but gave me a slip of paper with another address. I asked if that was the one I had just passed and she said yes.

It was raining a little, but I walked the few blocks with my suitcase back to the other location. I arrived at 12:15. There was one person being served at the counter and the line was outside. There was one guy in front of me. Other people lined up behind me. When the guy in front of me went some moron pulled up and went inside and got behind him ignoring the line. I did not say anything to him although I usually would.

I told the lady I was there for an antigen test. She asked if it was for some company or if I was doing it on my own. I gave her my passport and email and 80,000 pesos. She gave me a sheet to fill out about symptoms and if I had been anywhere that has covid or around anyone with covid. I was to fill that out and hand it to the lab tech that was going to call me.

The lab tech called and I went into the back room and sat in the chair. She had me lower my mask below my nose. She stuck the swab in each nostril and told me they would call me back to the desk with the results in 15 minutes. I went back out to wait and in 14 minutes they called me with the results. I was out of there at 12:59. So no appointment, 80,000 pesos, and 44 minutes arrival until departure.

Now I am at my hotel. I am going to catch a Cabify down to Santa Fe to see what is going on. Bogota is pretty much a ghost town. Some restaurants are open, but they are take away only. Everything else besides health centers and I guess supermarkets and convenience stores is closed.

Santa Fe is dead as of Saturday and Sunday. There are few chicas, but they are not good at all.

Tuesday is opening (hopefully) -- Should be pretty good.

[Silver Turtle]

I was there tonight until about 10 pm. Girls there told me that if you get their number, they can manage to go see you in your hotel during the lockdown. So the implication I took from that is that Santa Fe may be pretty dead if not closed down til Tuesday early morning assuming lockdown does not get extended. Since movement around the city should be severely restricted, I don't know how anyone would be able to get to your hotel but a couple of girls seemed confident and offered their what's app to arrange.

By the way, you are supposed to be allowed an hour outside each day for exercise and doctor's appointments and certain other reasons (presumably going to airport to catch international flight for example) get an exemption so there should be some movement outside.

Very little traffic but there were a fair number of girls-- Many Hot! I was just walking through. Definitely could have had some fun.

Seems like the police are not really chasing them away.

Some guys were trying to get me to go to a club, so some are open although since many Colombians are staying home the clubs are probably not as good as usual-.

[Taiwan Laowai]

I do not know how it is now. They were open when I was there this afternoon. And the other night.

The clubs were open all through the past lock downs, they are obviously paid off. I don't see why this latest restriction would be any different.

Thanks for the repose. Interesting but not at all surprised, just the ebb and flow here in Colombia hehehehe.

Dude it's crazy how many Colombians are on there. Seems like a pretty easy way to get manipulated though. Like you tell them you're looking to meet in person and they will just tell you to buy their whatsapp number from them for a pretty hefty price, and you have no way to tell if they actually have any intention of meeting or if they just want tokens. There are some really hot girls though who seem like they don't make that much money on there so I don't doubt its potential. Care to elaborate on your approach?

Yeah, there are quite literally thousands of Colombianas on Chatturbate. They come in all shapes, sizes, and backgrounds. Some broadcast from their house, others from a studio.

Easy way to get manipulated? If you're careless and without a clue, that's absolutely possible thru Chatur, any of the other sites, or in person. Use discretion and you should be fine. Buying a whasapp number with tokens is a big no for me, as are upsells. Ignore all of the tips menus, and tokens for content (whatsapp numbers, snapchat, insta). Also, you can pretty easily spot when someone else is doing the typing.

Sidenote: On Chattur and IRL, my experience is that paisas are most likely to upsell. And not just a simple upsell but a whining one that is a real turn off for me. Other veterans please comment if that's consistent with your experiences.

So then, how have I succeeded?

So many of the girls there are bored out of there minds and are happy to chat by PM with anyone who has tokens (color by your handle indicates you are not a freeloader). Start chatting by IN SPANISH about every day stuff. It's a great way to practice your Spanish and / or get good with copy / paste from translator. Have them talk about what they are interested in. Favorite foods, travel destinations that they have been to or want to visit. Same as you would IRL at a bar. Chat for a while, maybe do a private show, and then return to chatting. Doing a Cam2 Cam to show you're not a monster is a good idea.

Most of all, bring up Colombia and how much you love the country (if you have been) or how much you are looking forward to discovering (if you're taking first trip). Tell them about a great restaurant that you know of that just happens to be their favorite cuisine. Trip advisor can help if you don't actually know one. I've had many honest offers for a personal tour.

Sometimes you can get a whassapp on the first encounter, sometimes it takes a return visit. I've been given numbers without even asking, but never followed thru on those. I've had luck in BOG, Bucaramanga, and a few much smaller cities.

I'm most into 30-45 yo MILFs, but a wingman I know has connected with 20-25 year olds because that's his thing.

Woodman, the clubs are open even with the quarantine in full effect in Bogota?

The Clubs in Santa Fe are open all night-- Lotsa Hot Girls-- I was in Troya and Venus last night-- Nice!

[Diviant]

I believe I posted the question but it was one among too many.

I believe I read that you guys don't prepay.

Normally, I have, not always but I was hoping to get your ideas and strategies. Is it different per type of agreement e. G. SW vs. PP vs. SA?

Is it clear upfront? I guess that applies to when negotiations are over the phone / text / internet.

Do you just say sorry no way or?

Thanks.

P.S. I'm flying out tomorrow.

[Pussycat123]

Just curious, what does CC stand for?

Just a wild guess.
