Posts: 3Cartagena or?
Just posted about my first South American experience, in Quito. It was fun, but for various reasons not optimal (E. G. Group tour). My next trip will be for the sole purpose of fun and relaxation with amiable companionship. Thinking about my criteria, Cartagena seems like a great pick. Here are my considerations:
Availability of high-quality, affordable companionship. I'm torn between the idea of having a "guide" for a week versus sampling a variety of ladies for multi-hour / overnights. From what I have seen here, money is not going to be an issue. Ease of hooking up, selection, and safety are the primary issues, although it relieves a lot of stress if she speaks some English.
Location. Pleasant climate and natural beauty are a must. I have a preference for nice beaches, but I'm open to other areas if they have some "Wow" factor. 420 decriminalized is preferable.
Upscale accommodations. I like comfortable surroundings and modern conveniences. I don't need five star, but 3 1/2 to 4 star is reasonable, keeping it under $100 per night.
Things to do / day trips. I like a combination of relaxing and down time with some activities, preferably with a companion. Boat trips, historical tours, parks, sporting events, or anything else to get out and experience the area.
Access from Miami. Looking for non-stop flights, the shorter the better.
Food / drink. I like good food and a variety of alcoholic beverages. Definite plus for places with a great culinary reputation, and for places with great street food.
Historical interest. I like history and archaeology, so anyplace with a good story is interesting to me. Old towns, museums, historical tours are all great. If there are ancient ruins involved that's even better.
Music / nightlife. I'm too old for the club scene, but someplace with good local music and some places to go that are interesting and lively, but mellow enough for an old man.
Putting it all together, Cartagena seems to stack up pretty well in all dimensions. Any thoughts relative to other destinations in the Caribbean / Central American / South American region?

Posts: 96Cartagena v San Andres
Hi there,
I am usually a Medellin aficionado and rarely venture anywhere else in Colombia but from time to time I find myself taking a girl away. I usually go for Cartagena as it's pretty close and pretty much a sure thing. I have just noticed however that there is a direct flight from MDE to San Andres and was wondering how it compares to Cartagena? I assume it's much quieter (which I don't mind) but is it worth it? Are there things to do during the day? Or should I just stick to Cartagena?
Thank you!
Be.

I will try to check out these new clubs and report back. Not sure of the chica quantity and quality in June. Does anyone know?
Nonetheless, I am pretty sure these chicas would move in and out of these clubs like they always do from the clock tower square and back again into these clubs.

If you taking a trip over 30 minutes out of town, they can be a good alternative to a taxi or bus.
I would not take them for short trips to and from Centro or around town. Cabs are everywhere, no waiting and only cost 8,000 per ride.

You can always just take them to a laundry and drop them off. Usually ready in an hour or two.

Posts: 172TadaiMaybe and money conversion
USA Banks have nothing to do with your conversion rate from dollars to pesos. The conversion rate is set by the bank here in Colombia that owns the ATM. You request pesos at the withdrawal and the local Colombian bank decides how many dollars it will debit from your USA Account.

Low chica count on my last trip but I went during the Barranquilla carnival. Many of them had fucked off to Barranquilla to work or hang out at the carnival. I find timing is key to going there. Any kind of holiday or special event fucks shit up.

Posts: 115Confirmation of Club Pley being shut down?
So. I feel like it's the Mandela Effect with Club Pley LOL. Has anyone been able to confirm that it's still open? It's been a ghost-town on my last couple of trips and was one of my favorite spots in all of Colombia. Sad if it's true that it's been permanently shut down.

Since I do not swing that way, I have no desire to partake in activities such as wondering about other guys sexual skills but I respect that you enjoy thinking about it. To each his own, I always say.

Although I loved the job, I never felt guilty picking up my check at the end of the week. I suspect there are many people that have fun at work and don't feel guilty getting paid, I am not sure why this work would be any different.
