Cali Reports

[Tom 33]

Hey Guys, just got back from a heaven sent, lustfull, debaucherous, 10 days in CALI, good news "CITIBANK" there is one in plaza versailles is now giving 700,000cop and 500,000cop amounts = less trips to the ATM which = less bank fees! You all know that those add up! Peace "Chino"

Actually the number of trips to the ATM remain unchanged. You can make as many consecutive withdrawals as you want until you reach the daily limit set by your home bank. But, for those charged a fee per transaction, the 700K per transaction is great news.

I've already said enough about how much i love Cali. But what is the situation in Armenia? BLue and Green eyed girls with the classic latin face? Can we get a visual?? This is really worth checking out...

No Cali is not overrun with Gringos outside of the casa/stripclub scene. If your hanging out in Menga or 6thave/calle 26 area you wont find a single gringo....besides me maybe. But you will find alot of hot young girls. Suerte

[Surfer]

the man TRULY tells it like it is without playing favorites at all.

Cubanut: the road to Buenaventura is VERY dangerous for gringos (a good friend was removed at knifepoint from a mini-bus, tied to a stake out in the middle of nowhere, and was lucky to escape his harrowing ordeal alive; I will ask his permission to post his epic story on this website if there is interest but I think you are a member of the site where the story was posted.)

Also, the beaches are mud, the the water black, thge climate Cartagena like and it is a VERY unpleasant place that is not worth the effort (unless you LOVE Black girls in VERY seedy casas). Ask Screwed Up or search these threads for his report.

Ditto the road to the South past Jamundi. The highway NORTH is the ONLY reasonably safe escape from Cali. I know I sound like a broken record but it is easy to develop a false sense of security in Colombia.

I admit that I DREAD the opening of a Mansion like facility in Cali; one guy, Batman, tried it and failed miserably. I hope any succesors meet the same fate as the big plus of Cali, the friendliness of the people (chicas included), will go the way of Laguito and Poblasdo once the flood gates are flung open.

I am pretty much over my Colombia phase as I do NOT like the changes taking place there at all and am moving on to greener pastures (much applause from the peanut gallery!) That being said, I will still return occasionally as I have good friends who live there AND there are still secret corners not yet inundated by the gringo invasion. But IMHO, Colombia's best days as a mongering location are but pleasant memories. ):

I've spent a lot of time in both Cali and Medellin ...

I'm pretty sure Robert (of the Mansion / Castillo) and I were the first gringos seen at both Energy and New Life in Medellin, as well as many other places really ... and since Robert is not a true gringo (of course he's PRican) ... I get the honors ... whoop-dee-doo.

Anyway ... since those days I've pretty much settled in Cali ... hanging with my novia and playing around a little when the urge strikes.

What Cubanut says about the general attitude of people from Cali is correct IMHO ... more open, more chevere (cool).

The daytime casas are MUCH better in Medellin ... as far as quality goes ... I actually think the whole PFP scene in Medellin is better.
It's the non-pro scene in Cali that is better ... like Cubanut says ... the chicas don't seem to be as stuck-up / cold as the hot Paisas ... especially the ones in Mangos / Poblado.

Medellin is definitely a much prettier city and the climate is much better also.

I stay in Cali because that's where my work takes me now and my girlfriend and her family are there (even though she's a Paisa ... hahaha) and I'm way less into the PFP as before.

I wouldn't come running to Cali just to chase the PFP ... Medellin would be better IMHO ... especially with the Mansion there and it's competition.
If you like to mingle and meet normal chicas ... you speak at least conversational type spanish ... and you have a cool personality to mix it up with the Calenas ... Cali is nice.

Just my take on the comparison ... buenas suerte to all!

by the way .... it's Avenida Sexta ... not Sesta (Sixth Avenue) ... come on Cuba ... get on the ball! Just joshing ya amigo ... sorry I missed you guys that night ... we missed eachother by about 5 minutes ... take care.

How gringo infested is Cali at the moment?

I hear its becoming like Cartegena now :(

Cubanut,

Yes I agree 110% percent with your report and you comparison of Medellin vs Cali. Due to business i have lived in both cities for over a year and in my opinion Cali is THE place for girls. The city itself may not be as nice as Medellin, but the girls are always open to meeting a foriegner and are always ready to party.

The culture there is so much more open and fun and it really shows with the girls. I am not really shure why Greg and Robert did not start there first as
Cali is al lot more geared to their type of business.

Any one on the fence deciding about which city to go to (Cali or Medellin) should take heed to your report as it is right on the money. Both Cites have their fair shares of pluses and minuses but if it's the girls you are looking for then IMO Cali is the better option.

Great comments Cuba, I really liked the Chipe Chape mal too. Plenty of friendly cuties around and good food too. Also lots of possibilities in the Palmetto Mall to the South on weekends. Maybe I´ll check out Armenia next trip. My small town experience this time was hopping over to Ibague on Aires. The plane stops in Pereira on the way. While I was in Ibague there was a report on CNN on the girls in Pereira going on a sex strike so that their gangster boyfriends would lay down their guns. Fat chance! The girls were having a great time talking to the reporter and getting their 5 minutes of fame. I can imagine their boyfriends gleefully taking advantage of the opportunity to jump on other girls with the excuse of the "crossed legs strike".

Gents,

Having just returned from Cali I must say that having a monger oriented place to stay like the Medellin Mansion would be ideal.

I think Robert and Greg have made Medellin a no brainer vaction spot for the avid monger. Should they decide to do the same in Cali, I think the party potential will be even greater. There are so many more party places and unique sex venues in Cali than Medellin. The Chiva traveling party buses are real cool as well.

6th ave (Avenida Sesta) is the place a Cali Mansion should be situated, in my opinion. This is a major party district and is really happening Thursday through Saturday and on Sunday when there is a three day weekend. It is in the Versalles are in North Cali. There also are some very nice upscale neighborhoods as well towards south Cali (beyond the south area slums). I also like the Avenida Roosevelt area and found a very unusual night club that my friends and I now call "The Secret Place". If I were to take you there I would noty tell you why it is so unique but you would see for yourself once inside. It takes a little getting used to. Everyone likes the place though.

Medellin definately has more malls than Cali but with Cali malls like the Chipe Shoppe and Uni Centro you don't need many more. Again the attitude and reaction of the girls to me and my friends advances were more welcomed than in Medellin. We eventually picked up six 8 different girls at Chippe Shoppe in the afternoon and invited them to later party with us at Avenida Sesta and they naturally came back with us to the Windsor Plaza Hotel for an overnight stay.

One big difference between the Calenas and the Medellin Paisas is attitude. The Medellin girls are beautiful but rather cold. The Cali girls on the other hand on a whole are notch lower in the beauty dept but a whole lot of notches higher in the hot passionate GFE dept than Medellin girls.

I think one should take advantage of Cali's close proximity to other nice smaller cities like Armenia, Pereira and Manizales which are driving distances of 2 1/2 hrs, 4hrs, & 5 hrs respectively.

I managed to get over to Armenia in 2 1/2 hrs problem free and was impressed that in this smaller city I saw more beautiful women in it's El Central (downtown district) by percentage than what I have seen in Medellin's El Central. The women in theses areas are also referred to as Paisas. I believe it is because these cities are within the Antioquia region.

I have found that in Medellin once you get outside of El Poblado the percentage of a constant flow of beautiful women drops off greatly. The other problem in Poblado is the tremendous amout of fake tits that are almost the norm for the richer Paisas. Not so in Armenia. The girls are naturally stunning.

One other MAJOR difference in Armenia from Medellin is the abundance of natural blonde and lighter eyed colored women. I don't know what genes are flowing in the Armenia region but green eyes are very common as well as a healthy sprinkling of blue eyed girls.

I asked several girls what predominent tourists come to Armenia and was very surprised to find that most said the French are mostly what they see. I don't know how long the French have been coming or really why. Maybe it's the French that have contributed to the lighter hair and eye coloring I spoke of earlier.

I found Armenian girls very friendly and talkative. They responded easily to my greetings and most were exited to meet an American for the firs time.

Lastly, I saw no problematic areas in Armenia as well which are abundant in Cali and sprinkled about in Medellin.

I plan to visit Periera and Manizales as well in the near future. I also will take advantage of Cali's close proximity to Buenaventura which is in the North Pacific Ocean and only about 1 1/2 hrs away from Cali.


Cheers,


Cubanut

Most people say that the pay for play in Cali is just OK, not great. You would never travel across the world just to hit Cali's casas for a couple of weeks. Better options elsewhere.

Medellin is not full of gringos, in fact you almost never see another one, save for a few places in the city.

[VipMedellin]

My name is Albert I would like to know if anybody knows of big places in Cali to rent to open a hotel there.

[Member #4351]

Looks like Greg is going to make another ton of $$s with his Cali Mansion...if someone doesn´t find a decent hassle-free alternative place to stay. I don´t understand why Greg is the only one with some vision...He starts the Medellin Mansion, things go great and everyone else jumps on the bandwagon. Cali is a great place to visit..really friendly and not loaded with gringos like Medellin, but needs a monger friendly place for us to stay.

Hey Ricker,

Sorry me an Robert missed you. We had dinner at Tony Roma's on Tuesday and walked over to the IC but you were out. Next time amigo.


Wolfy Baby,

Sorry but I left Cali the next day after you posted your message (Sunday Oct 1st). Would have been great to meet up as well.

I stayed at the Hotel Windsor Plaza and they too have implemented some new rules. Before this week there was no guest fee for a girl staying less than 3 hours in your room and $33,000 cop if she stayed more than 3 hours. This week however the new management has imposed a fee of doubling your room fee for a guest staying more than 30 minutes. My daily rate (with corporate discount) was $82,000 cop and they wanted to charge me another $82,000 cop for my guest. The guest fee change occurred in mid week starting with the third girl I had brought in and I told the manager I would not pay it because I was never informed of the mid week change of policy. After 5 minutes of explaining what good customer service is about, the manager and I agreed to a charge of $33,000 for girls staying over 30 minutes. I had three more girls stay with me after that. In no instance was any girl ever asked to provide an ID nor did they ever confront any of my guests for any reason (such as leaving alone).

I later found out that if you pay for a double room you will not be charged a guest fee. This works out cheaper of course than doubling your rate for each guest and also if you plan to have at least one guest a day/night.


Cheers,


Cubanut
