Medellin Reports

[Member #4398]

Gringoloco,

If you want to end with your ass in jail like your role model Jake, you are doing a good job. Keep offering your puta consulting services with your friends that will do the tours. Wait a minute, isn't that some of the shit Jake was doing? In Medellin, there is not such thing as puta consulting business with tours. By the way that type of business in Medellin is called pimping and promoting sex tourism, two illegal things. If you don't believe, go visit your buddy Jake and ask Jake for advice. If he made a copy of your passport when you used his good service as you mentioned, then don't visit him or you will be in the news too and put together with jake as another gringo pimp. Jake is going to be in jail for a very long time, probably many many years. Leave the pimping to the locals, you are in a fucking foreign land that despise gringos doing these type of things. Learned the lessons that we just learned from Jake's arrest and Cubadave in CR.

Cerebro.

I am only offering to help. I am just saying that getting girls is the easy part. We don't need Jake for that. I was only offering to help anyone that wants to go there. I stay at a nice apartment in Poblado that is dirt cheap and I have friends there that can help find things or even take you on tours. I have some taxi drivers already vetted out. I want people to go to Medellin. I want them to meet girls and get laid. Why not. But I think it can be done in a much different manner. Jake made it out to seem like you needed him. He made himself a pimp. But he was just skimming off of an already thriving industry. He did provide a good service. I visited him my first time there and never needed him again. And I'm meeting local girls that are not hookers and fucking them. Isn't that better?

I think I posted a link to an article here about the gringos getting murdered in Medellin. There is a new mayor. And he wants to get rid of the image of Medellin as a sex and drug tourist destination..

True, the city has been trying to clean El Poblado. But not sure if that is the real "cause" of the arrest of Jake. If that is the case, Police would have arrested him without any involvement by the US embassy since the guy's address is shown everywhere. The involvement of the US embassy could implicate that they marked Jake first, and then requested the National Police investigating and arresting him. Remember, there had been an investigation of him for a year before arresting him. The investigation had begun before the mayor began cracking down prostitution at P Lleras.

Jake's legal troubles aside, barring intervention by the admins, there was no problem with Jake posting on this thread. The problem was with the people complaining about the posts. Anyone who didn't like his posts could scroll past, or place him on ignore. Anyone who read his posts, read his website and thought "this is perfect for me", needs a babysitter. If they ended up getting all their answers from Jake, it kept their stupid questions, already answered 100 times, from cluttering the thread.

Does any of that penetrate through? You were upset because Jake "littered" the thread about once a week, but oblivious to the fact most of the litter was from people complaining about Jake. Now, with the thread busier than ever before, almost exclusively with posts about Jake, all you can think of is making up an imaginary scoring system, calling me a dummy and doing a victory dance?

I think I can speak for a number of posters here and on other boards where Jake has (had) been spamming his "services". It's okay to promote your business, but don't be a complete shill. Throw down some cash and pay for a banner ad or sponsored post like everyone else. He was spamming ads on boards and not contributing anything of significance, just plug plug plug all day. I don't blame any site admins for clamping down on him and outright banning him because he was just getting free advertising.

My flight arrived yesterday at 11:45 AM and I got thru immigration and customs in a total of twenty minutes. My bag was the first one off the plane. I always get a seat in the front of the plane because immigration can get backed up in Medellin. I hit the ATM machines at the airport and took out about 3 M Pesos and lined up a cab into town. I was approached by an attractive woman about thirty years old at the airport who asked me if she could go with me into town. I was a little bit dazed from flying all night and said no thanks. She was probably watching me withdrawing all that money from the ATM's and figured I was a rich gringo!

Good report Surfer. And probably a good thing you followed your instincts about that woman at the airport.

There is another guy on the floor in handcuffs along with Jake. Look at the 4:53 marker in the video.

The other person is the undercover cop that set up the sting. And this was at a hotel it was not at his apartment. They broke into his apartment with a door buster even though they had the keys. Makes for better news and camera action.

Aren't you the same dummy that was defending Jake, telling us he should be allowed to litter this thread bc he provides a service for idiots or the lazy, just a day before his arrest? Nice shooting, you're now 0-2.

Did you get that autograph for me yet? No?

Neither of us is an admin here, we don't set policy, censor posts or make the decisions. All we can do is read and respond (or choose not to respond) to what we see here. Are you with me so far? Does the entire population of Colombia, who you represent, understand? Good.

In the weeks before Jake's arrest there were several complaints about non trip report posts in this thread, each followed by more non report complaints. Then there were several complaints about Jake. The complaints about Jake posting here and cluttering up the thread outnumbered the posts by Jake, by about 5 to 1.

It appears the people of Colombia need a new official spokesman.

I always get a seat in the front of the plane because immigration can get backed up in Medellin. I hit the ATM machines at the airport and took out about 3 M Pesos and lined up a cab into town.

She was probably watching me withdrawing all that money from the ATM's and figured I was a rich gringo!

I got in the cab and headed into the Industralies area of Medellin called Ciudad De Rio and checked into the IBIS Hotel. Got a corner room on the top floor with a great view of the mountains and surrounding area. This is primarily a business hotel with small rooms but with everything you need including a queen size bed, security box, strong WiiFi, cable TV, etc. The pricing at this Hotel ranges from $ 30 to $ 60 a day US depending on the day of week and what's happening in town. There's also about 15 places to eat and drink within 300 feet of the hotel.

After getting unpacked I headed to the Metro station and rode into El Centro and got off at Parque Berrio. My true home away from home. I started making the rounds looking for a brief encounter. I circled the Museum, Botero Plaza, the Church, and park area by the statues. Lots of glue sniffers "sacaleros" and drunks laying around on the sidewalks, etc. Lot's of girls out as well, however most of them where pretty "skanky" however there were some cute ones available.

After about an hour and a half, I started talking with a small blond haired cutie by one of the statues. I asked her how much money she wanted and she said 35 K. I've had girls quote me as low as 15 K before and asked her what she was going to do for that. Her response was, "you can do anything you want to me, but you cannot have my "culito" ass. So I said okay, lets go. We walked over to the Premium Plaza Hotel my secondary choice of lodging in Medellin and got a room. No Passport or ID required for checking into this Hotel. She was very sweet and I could of barebacked her if I wanted to but passed. Condoms are "optional" with a lot of these street girls, some of which don't look to healthy and you need to be very careful.

After this is I had some problems with my Colombian cell I got resolved and then rode the Metro back to the Hotel. I then called my Novia to come over later in the evening. We had a great session, drank a bottle of wine and went out to eat. Instead of eating at one of the trendy eating places by the Hotel we walked about four blocks into the barrio and went to a BBQ place. We got a full rack of ribs, 1/2 chicken, french fries, beans, arepas, and a water for 30 K. It's amazing how cheap you can eat here, and even cheaper in El Centro. We headed back to the room and fell asleep. I woke up around 3:30 in the morning with a hard on. I didn't have to go far! The novia left at 7 AM to go to work and I took a cab over to the sports complex in Belen. I hit the Olympic Pool and swam for almost an hour. What's odd is that I didn't even feel winded from the altitude. Got back to the Hotel and am getting ready to head back to "El Centro" for some more fun before having the Novia return after work. Just another day in Paradise with more to follow.

Shouldn't it be the other way around -- the consensus now is that the middle class Colombians don't want that shit in their backyard (Poblado).

Parkinsons, if you look at the many escort sites in Medellin there are a lot of women that have their incall in mostly middle to upper class neighborhoods (Lleras, Poblado Laureles, etc.). 99.99% of their clients are local Colombianos.

La Isla is right up the street in Las Palmas. That's not a cheap barrio at all. So to say they "don't want that shit in their backyard" is somewhat of a misnomer.

This isn't Walking Street in Pattaya, Thailand. In Medellin, no one knows your business unless you go out of your way to make your business known.

Hi,

Has anyone ever stayed at the Charlee? Any reviews?

[GringoLoco66]

I'm sure you will find someone to take you up on your offer. There's a sucker born every minute, lol!

Feel free to take over Jake's old thread. He won't be using it, just like we wasn't using it before all of this happened.

My first visit to Medellin (5 years ago), I stayed at M2. While I was there, another guest told me that he went with [CodeWord902] girls. He was an Asian-American guy from California. He told me that there were casas downtown that catered to his type and that the Police were in on it.

I told Boyd that he had a [CodeWord911] staying there, but he did not kick the guy out.

[Gagoo]

Because he provided lodging for his customers, according to his website. I'm pretty sure the law requires a copy of either a local ID or a passport.

The big purpose of this is a tourist, you will not have to pay a 16% tax on your rental stay. I have only used Airbnb for quite a while in Medellin now. They want a copy of your passport so they won't have to make you pay a 16% tax. I could look it up, but from memory, I think you can stay in Colombia up to 90 contentiously without having to pay that tax.

So, A Colombian from Bogota staying at a hotel in Medellin will pay more for it than you.

[Gagoo]

I think we need to be careful about scaremongering. Guys who took up ColombiaJake for a tour of the centro have nothing to be concerned about. If the authorities want to nail Joe Monger, they don't need to go thru ColombiaJake to do it. I think this is all part of an effort by local authorities to clean up Poblados image. Didn't someone on the board mention a couple months ago a local authority had stated something was going to happen soon. I understand its only been several months since the policia started seriously policing Parque Lleras, now Colombia Jake, what's next?

I think I posted a link to an article here about the gringos getting murdered in Medellin. There is a new mayor. And he wants to get rid of the image of Medellin as a sex and drug tourist destination.

Colombian Jake wasn't exactly being careful. He had stupid ads on Craigslist for God sakes. I have a small unrelated Youtube channel, very very few subscribers. But I had some normal videos of Medellin, and he comments on my video to stop wasting time and look up Colombian Jake. I replied that I seen him a couple times, but I never said Hello, to him. I didn't see a need to. Doing this type of stuff on YouTube or Facebook is just asking for trouble. Some people ask me questions about "working ladies" on YouTube, but I said I won't talk about that here.

Colombia already has drug dealers and pimps, or people that run houses of pleasure. The gringos that were killed here (yes, I am here now) were dealing drugs. The Colombian people don't want some damn gringos coming in to do the same. If you want to be a pimp or drug dealer you have to do it in your own country.

[Gagoo]

Y'all ain't got enough of that shit yet? You better let these dudes finds their own broads and let these broads find their own dudes.

Finding a cute spinner in Medellin doesn't take much effort. I fuck a different cute spinner daily. And if I'm frisky two. If it's raining, then I'll use Whatsapp and have a woman deliver.

Just go to the basic places described in the forums and you will see all the cuteness and hotness that you will need.

Cuba Dave, David 33, and now this clown!

KISS; travel, have fun, post a TR, don't mention many names and show faces, and repeat!

I don't feel sorry for any of them!
