Cartagena Reports

[LoveItHere69]

Last night there was a 10:00 pm curfew. Tonight it was 6:00 pm. The amount of people walking the streets is about half what it was 3 days ago that I got here. Only 5 girls working the Clock Tower scene at 3:00 pm. Later at 5:00 pm saw 11 girls trying to get customers around the Clock Tower.

ARA store like a Dollar Store has 1/2 cleaning stuff and 1/2 food items but 1/2 the selection of a Dollar Store. Yesterday bought some water. Not busy. Do not remember anything being out of stock. Today between 3:00 pm - 5:30 pm there was a line of 10-15 people to get inside. They would let them in in spurts of like every 10 minutes. Not sure why. Nobody came out with loads of bags, just 2-3 bags.

Exito = Walmart = Tesco.

They were a little slow yesterday and today. Paper napkins and toilet paper a plenty. No problems there.

My Airbnb host said he has had many cancellations.

All boats to islands cancelled. Verified with my Air bnb host who's friend is a boat operator. I wanted to see the dolphins. That's out. Beaches also closed. Went to Clock Tower for my 10:00 pm date. Police running everyone home starting 9:30 for 10:00 pm city curfew. No date. OK, I had a date with my hand which was older and fatter than I remember. That sucked! Afraid how many girls will be scared to see foreigners or any guy with the virus scare. If they need money bad enough? Just hope we can find an ST hotel. This virus thing is crazy.

It sucks can't do anything I'm leaving right now to Bogota and flying home tomorrow. Staring today there is a curfew from 6 pm to 4 am and a 24 hour curfew during the weekend.

My man, everyone has there own way that they get down. I'm not a cheap cat that worries about a few drinks. I strike up a conversations with regular people at a hotel bar and the next thing you know, I'll buy a few rounds of drinks for a complete stranger just because. I like partying with fine women, which is why I fly all the way to Colombia. That's just how I roll. I'm going to buy a chick that I'm hanging out with in any of the spots a few drinks if she's cool. Your way works for you, mines works for me. I apologize in advance if me buying some babes a few drinks is making it more difficult for you when your out doing your thing. I'll be there in a few weeks and me and all my boys will be having a great time. Certainly not taking any of these babes to dinner but a few drinks, not a problem for me. BUT, I do feel you when the random babe walks up out of no where and goes "one drink for me". And your not even talking or said one word to the babe. But If I full on dancing and partying with a babe, drinks will be aflowing!!

I've had times that I have bought drinks for these women. I have done it mainly for girls that I have already fucked and if they were deserving then yes I have offered. But it's a turn off when they ask. If I'm feeling nice then yes I have offered. But this also goes to the fact that my standards are not being met here. These girls are all asking high ass prices so why am I going to add more free shit to the mix. Especially for average looking women in my perspective. These girls are not completely fea. There are girls who I would definitely fuck with if it was on a regular basis but since I'm paying then I want the best of the best. I think that's my personal problem because that has given me many problems in the past because the really hot ones are the ones less likely to budge from their certain high prices because most guys will pay without negotiating. I have fucked so much this trip that even when I take a cialis if the girl I'm fucking isn't fine my dick can't stay hard. Had that happen one day. Thought I was having issues but then the second girl was way more attractive to me and I had no issues fucking her for like an hour straight. So In essence I'm not knocking the next guy for doing what he wants with his money. Or at least I'm trying not to. I was just stating my opinion on the fact that these girls don't give shit for free so why should we. And yes I tell a lot of them this statement. God thing my Spanish is good enough. Also many of these girls will dance on you just for the chance at a date. Maybe a beer will keep them grinding on your dick longer though. Most of the time I don't even have no intentions of fucking at night so I'm not one to waste anyone's time. I see something I like and after a few minutes I decide whether I want her number or not and move on. The few ones I have seen that I like either don't even bother with the club and just stand outside or some guy decides to wife her up for the night LOL.

Yes, I paid 50 K at nearby Ofi Hotel. Some accepted 150 K, but others flatly refused, and some only started at 300 K and not even budged. 100 K is basically what I paid in CTG 10 years ago. I see 200 K as fair rate, but parted with much more on occasion.

At the clubs you increase your rate chances at the very beginning of the night before the crowd and clients and towards the end of the night when they are choosing. The clock tower is more prevalent with reasonable rates after 11 pm. The beach has its own dynamic. If you know how to work the beach it will be to your advantage.

Ohhhh geez, LOL.

For me it just depends on the particular chica and the moment.

If she's a whiner, taker, pain in the booty, etc, of course I ignore her, get rid of her, whatever.

If she's sweet, cool, I'm diggin the vibe, of course I'll offer her a drink.

It's for my enjoyment as well, to chill with her, chat with her, feel her out a bit, plus I think it's a cool thing to do, if she's a cool chica as well.

I don't lump all WGs in the same heep.

There are the good, the bad and the ugly.

May be your blanket policy not to buy a drink for a chica.

That's great. For you.

You say they give you nothing for free, well I too may not get it for free, however, I do get it Good.

I'm good at sensing and building a good, cool vibe.

For me that pays off Big.

Heck, I'll go one step further. If I like the girl and I think she would look really good in a certain type of dress, I'll take her shopping. 20 k? I get to enjoy seeing her in it, I get to enjoy taking it off of her and you can be certain she is going to show at least 50 k worth of appreciation.

I also bring nice smelling, good body wash and shampoo. I get to lather them up and rinse them down and they're guaranteed to smell good for me.

Buy a few drinks, drop a few compliments, and the risk of getting mechanical or rushed service drops way down.

Anyone have any recent recommendations for massage parlors here in Cartagena? I am not looking for a brothel or a prostitute. That obviously isn't hard to find here LOL. But I'm looking for some spots that I can get a nice legit massage and a happy ending of course. Tried searching this thread but nothing specific came up and online Google searches aren't helpful. Let's not even start with asking around. These taxi guys only seem to care about taking you to brothels because that's obviously where they will get the biggest cut from bringing customers. Any help would be very much appreciated.

My advice, Pop up Google maps. Search for "masaje", then scope out the results. You might have to try a few to get what you want, but I'm sure it's available.

Weak mongers will be weak mongers.

Like Forest Gump says "stupid is as stupid does".

You don't have to give her extra 30 or any extra anything.

Do you pay extra anywhere else for things?

You are willfully damaging the economics of the market.

Please stop.

No! LOL. I'm not going to be haggling all night. If I can't get the babe to budge from her price and I really want to tap it. I'm breaking bread!

I read a lot of information on this forum before making my first trip to Colombia, and, even though I doubt I have a lot of new information to share, I thought I should contribute at least a little bit. Maybe it will help someone?

I stayed in Centro. I wasn't very adventurous being my first experience with the place. I spent a few days just taking tours, sightseeing, and enjoying the atmosphere. The beaches in the city aren't great, but it was only eight mil to get there by taxi, so I saw no reason not to stay in the heart of the action and night life instead of at some tower down in Bocagrande.

I stayed in hotels. No they weren't guest friendly. It doesn't matter. There are several hourly places within easy walking distance of the clock tower / clubs, and they're perfectly fine for what you're using them for. The girls know where they are and it's perfectly safe. They charged 50 mil. I have no idea whether that was right or for how long I paid. No one ever knocked on a door, and I was there for more than a hour sometimes.

I didn't feel like picking up anyone from the plaza de Los coches (clock tower). I could have. It's just very public. Also, there are definitely some of questionable age there. Better to go elsewhere where you know they're checking ID unless you've seen them in both places. And you will. The same girls in the square will go to the clubs later...

Great post! I roll the same way. I love Dulce Vita! Guys been giving me a hard time here for paying 250 k mil for the babes in Dulce Vita. I'm going to keep tearing that 250 k off and not looking back! Glad you had fun.

LDV Space Isis the clock tower. I seriously don't see what his are talking about. Regardless if it was a weekday or the weekend the talent was disheartening. The girls prices are so obnoxious here that I can't find it feasible to pay for a girl unless she is fucking fine. I keep reading on here where everyone keeps saying these girls are super hot but I'm just not seeing it. After coming from Medelland this talent pool just isn't cutting it. Yes I know that everyone has different tastes but regardless of your into flacas like me or thicker women. Young or older. Tall or short. None of that matters in the scale of how hot a girl is. Pretty face nice smile nice natural ass. That's the bare minimum that I seek. Obviously energy and personality mean a lot more at times but the only spots worth hanging out at are LDV and the clock tower and all I see are average or below average looking women. And these ugly ass bitches got the nerve to ask for 200 mil plus for a fucking hour. I swear this scene is pathetic. I've actually seen hotter girls at playa Hollywood during the day then I've seen at night. And trust me I have tried to lower my standards. My main point is these spots are not full of 8 and 9's. Your lucky to find one or two of those on any given night. Just giving a new perspective to anyone getting hyped from reading so these fantasy stories that are on this thread so you know to expect reality.

Man, I don't know what your standards are! Beyonce gots to be a 6 or 7 to you because me and all my boys love Cartagena over Medellin and we all pull some fine ass babes from these joints. We have been to Medellin and prefer Cartagena. Don't really like the places where you got to tag the babe on site. I like the Ducle Vita scene. For those that know, its a miniature Club Help in Rio to me. I've seen some real stars and some not so cool ones also. Never left empty handed in all the nights I've partied in CTG.

Why are you buying drinks for prostitutes? Are they giving you anything for free? With me it's the principle. And I enjoy rejecting the ones who even dare asking me to buy them a drink. That also shows me by their reactions if they are even worth me wasting my time and money on. If a ***** gives me a stank attitude after I tell her I don't buy drinks I can only imagine what sex will be like with her. Ya'll out here wining and dining these hoes are the reason why they all seem to feel entitled to a fucking drink from me.

I totally agree with you. But most of the time you can tell after you have a few drinks with the babe if the odds are in your favor in landing a beast in the bed. If she's fine as hell and there's some good chemistry. I'm going for it and giving up that extra 30 bucks. All day, everyday, twice on Sundays.
