Medellin Reports

Well that is it for story telling for a while. A dying monger.

VJ

Very nice story VJ. Thanks for sharing. I am curious. Are you a dying monger because you are planning to retire from mongering, planning to settle down and falling in love with the main chick of your story? How do you prevent from not falling in love with some of these great chicks?

For guys who like to go dance and chat with girls and maybe find a non-pro or semi-pro, can anyone recommend any spots that are good earlier in the week? Wednesday and Thursday especially. I like to start at a discoteca then either end up at a place open late like Fahrenheit, or a strip club, but the few times I've ventured out during the week I haven't found anything really busy.

This girl has an infant boy maybe 2 years old with her. It isn't hers, it's her sisters. She doesn't want to talk about her sister. Maybe the sister is trying to turn tricks? Who knows? I feed the little boy with the milk bottle. I extract a bunch of info from her over the next 15 minutes. She shows me pictures of her in a bikini and her 25 year old good looking European boyfriend. He is in Ecuador right now. I ask her if she thinks that her good looking boyfriend cheats? She says that she doesn't think so but can't say for sure. Come on, I tell her.

Thanks for sharing VJ.

I enjoy reading of your adventures and thoughts.

Jeff, you are an adrenaline junkie!! Maybe you got to take up free climbing or something. Haha.

[Vegas Jeff]

Made a run into El Centro. I had my eye on a particular girl. I spoke with her briefly and got a nice feel on a different day. Would have taken her then but wasn't sure if it would go BB or not. I normally don't need BB all of the time and do it only with select girls. I pull her. Another tough one to get BB sex. I did all I could while holding the mood but she wouldn't relent. I told her that I respected her standards and this is a good thing. I tell her, though, it must go BB next time. She says no problem. BBBJ is just great. No terms mentioned. Next, sex is great and I am rock hard. I am not going to cum, though, not even close. This is a terrible sign. I have not had this problem before to this degree. Over the years, I have lost some sensitivity starting about 5 years ago. I also want to add that of the 500 hookers I had sex with in CR, 480 I would say were with condoms. I had friends that were having BB sex a bunch and I never felt inferior to them. This is an inflation that I am paying, not something to brag about! Continuing, sex is connected but I need BB. Great session but lacking in sensitivity. Afterward all I had was 6 - 2 mil notes and a 50 mil note. I give her 12 mil and tell her next time I will give her 30 mil for BB. She smiles, kisses me, and says chow.

I eat some lunch. I go back to the place from the other day where I BB the other girl. The other jefe is there and I explain that I am going to take the girl outside for 10 minutes. The jefe says no problem. She puts her flip flops on and we head out again. We are smoking on the corner of a fork in the road. She is standing against the wall and I am blocking her. Cops are walking up the street but stop halfway. She goes to throw the joint away and I say no and tell her to relax. I am watching, leaning in towards her taking hits off the joint. Cops aren't moving so we continue to smoke. 3 minutes later we head back. In the room she tells me we can't have BB sex again. I told her we have to and offer her 40 k. I gave her 20 k the first time. She relents. Sex is good but it is too active. There is a difference between active and horny IMSO. She wants to come to my place. I live near her since she lives in Belen and attends the university. I tell her that she needs to relax and I want her for 2 hours in my apartment and I need a more connected slower session in my place with at least an hour of sex. She understands. I tell her that I might call her or come back there.

Afterward, I run into a guy on the street who runs a casa for a jefe. We sit on a bench in Parque Botero for an hour and talk. I offer to buy him dinner. About 22 k including drinks. $10 USD. He says to call him and he knows some barrio chicks who don't want to work the casas. Afterward, as we are walking across the square after dinner there is a smoking hot barrio girl walking through the square. I love her essence. She gains almost half block on me. Two Colombians are talking smack toward her. She gets this all day long for sure. I get up next to her and start talking to her. She is completely ignoring me. I press on. She finally lets me close and she has responded to two of my questions? I get her to sit down next to me in a cafe. She is 19 and has an amazing body. Amazing! She is really shy also.

Casa jefe catches up and I tell him that I am good. I tell him that there is no way this girl wants to work in his casa in El Centro. He hears me but continues to sit there. I tell him "por favor. " he continues to sit there. I tell him that I need to have a talk with him outside and say excuse me to the girl. I ask him what he wants. He says a little money. I give him 10 k and he is happy. Nice! This girl has an infant boy maybe 2 years old with her. It isn't hers, it's her sisters. She doesn't want to talk about her sister. Maybe the sister is trying to turn tricks? Who knows? I feed the little boy with the milk bottle. I extract a bunch of info from her over the next 15 minutes. She shows me pictures of her in a bikini and her 25 year old good looking European boyfriend. He is in Ecuador right now. I ask her if she thinks that her good looking boyfriend cheats? She says that she doesn't think so but can't say for sure. Come on, I tell her.

I explain that I have a Paisa girlfriend and we got in a fight and I am lonely and depressed which is not true. We are making a solid connection but sex won't happen today and it doesn't matter. I give her 5 mil for phone minutes and told her I would call her later. We have a nice phone conversation 30 minutes later. She asks me if I want to have sex with her. I told her "obviously but it doesn't matter right now". I tell her that I respect her and her being comfortable with me is my priority. She can come to my apartment, I can meet her in El Centro, I can meet her in her barrio, doesn't matter. Just let me know and I am there. I told her that I respected her boyfriend and I am not like the other selfish foreigners in Medellin. She will have money in her pocket, giving her more independence. It will be discreet also, only talking through whatsapp. Even in my shit state right now, having a fever, I am hot for this girl. I called her this morning and could hear the dysfunctional chaos in the background, which is common for these barrio girls. She says that she can't meet today and I say no problem and that I will call her tomorrow. Just letting the seeds grow a little more. We shall see what happens.

On another note I accidentally send a whatsapp to my girlfriend today that was intended for this girl. It says, "When do you want to meet with me?" OMG, I am such a dumbass! My monger buddies give me shit about these things and I deserve it. I do these incredibly crazy things but screw up with a minor detail when my guard is down and sitting on my couch alone. I had spent the entire day with my girlfriend the day before and had a great time at her parents house. I got a chance to spend time with her kids, who I love to see. They are my friends and I don't talk down to them. Continuing, I told her that the whatsapp message was intended for the guy delivering a washing machine which was actually being delivered. I was quick and fluid. She knows that I am lying and hangs up. This crushes me. I feel so selfish, changing her mood. I call her a little later and explain my situation, pretty honestly. I tell her that I have not had sex in my apartment in the first two weeks of my trip, which is true. I wanted to get my feelings for her in the right place before having sex in my apartment, which is true also. I explain that by having sex with a few other girls occasionally, it takes the edge off. I tell her that I love her. She knows it is the truth. I am trying to hold back from crying and I thank her for her understanding. She speaks with a soft voice, telling me that she loves me, and thanks me for my honesty. She has had my heart in her hand for awhile now, which was not earned easily, and she has a huge impact on my feelings daily.

One last thing. I have never even remotely had a girlfriend in the 700+ girls I had sex with in Latin America. This is the first one for me. I have never been more in love, not even close. There is a line that must be drawn with these hookers, and can't be crossed, or everything becomes jaded. If one eats off the tree in the middle of the garden every day and can't keep a sane mind there will be a loss of esteem. The older guys can handle this hobby much better than the younger guys IMSO. I see plenty of under 50's falling for the wrong girls. I suggest making a commitment to not get into a serious with any of these Paisas until you have at least 6 months of ground time in Medellin.

For you guys out there looking for REAL girlfriends, meet girls at their jobs, face to face! This would be a no brainier if I were looking. At least you will know that she has a work ethic and I find it comfortable meeting girls at their jobs anyway. Also guys if you don't have a least 6 months per year on the ground in the Third World, forget it. At best you will miss her to death. Every other scenario is only worse. Don't fall for these hookers! Just my opinion on this one. Guys, do as you will with it.

As my brother Wilt says with a REAL girlfriend you can't just give them money and shut them up. This is the difference between a slam dunk contest and a five on five basketball game. Big loss of control with the basketball game. Something to think about.

Well that is it for story telling for a while. A dying monger.

My best friend's uncle died from being scoped, it is real and it is very dangerous. If the girls you are talking to say they haven't heard of it watch out because they are lying to you, and FYI they aren't your friends. I belong to a Colombian Facebook group and a few guys got scoped when they took a bunch of girls to San Andres, I don't know the guys personally but I know that there are several members here that know them. Most of the "stories" that I have seen on this site aren't bullshit scare stories sir, they are usually pretty factual and are posted to help others. You have 5 posts to your name and you are calling out people, come on now.

I have also known someone that guy "scoped" in Medellin. And I know someone who had it happen in Rio. Hell I knew a guy from my city (not a monger per se) who was shot and killed in MDE. None of this stops me from visiting these locales, but it certainly makes you pay attention. FWIW, the only place I will not return to is Caracas, Venezuela. Risk is not worth the reward.

[Member #4394]

These guys in El centro are professional thugs. They are always looking for preys. Usually these robberies are led and organized by somebody else who are not at the site of robberies.

I had two robbery attempts in El Centro, one successful and one remarkably unsuccessful, in two months, one at dusk (the successful one) and one in broad daylight. Neither time was I drunk, and I've never been successfully robbed anywhere else in the world. This was in 2008. Maybe it's safer now but Colombia is dangerous, always and everywhere, and things are never as they seem.

So let's be careful out there!

[Nino Bravo]

Last time I was at La Isla I was with a few guys and they were asking for some sort of bottle minimum. Do you know if you go there solo, can you get away with buying solo drinks or a half bottle or something? The cover and prices were pretty fair considering the quality, other than the ridiculous bottle charge.

The times I went I just bought a half bottle of aguardiente, so no problem there. I was pretty generous with buying girls single drinks though. My waiter was cool as hell, so were the security guys. They treated me like a rock star. And gave me VIP treatment every time I went. Tipping these guys helps alot. The girls were cool, although some were hustling a little bit too much. When that happened I just had one of the security guys give them the boot from my table. Spent a fortune, but that's how I am and had a grand time.

[Vegas Jeff]

After dropping my friend off, I don't want to go home. It is about 11 pm. With no babysitter around I can do some crazy things. I am bored and want to drive around the city. I have about 5 minutes until I reach the highway. I like the taxi driver alot but I need to press him with some very fucking serious questions. The guy totally gets it and he passes my tough radar test. He is a super laid back guy who has been a driver for over 20 years. He tells me he can show me some spots in Bello. He also says there is a good place to meet girls in the daytime about 10 blocks from where we are walking below Santo Domingo. I am not even horny but don't want to go home. We smoke a joint and head on. He heads back near the starting point and shows me the spot. He says that he knows a girl in Santo Domingo. He calls her as we are driving up the hill but he can't get in touch. 90% of the streets we are on we would be able to pickup a girl if one was available. As with my luck, not so simple. We are now driving on a narrow sidewalk. I am in the backseat with my head inside the passenger headrest paying attention. We turn left down another street that is very narrow also. Tough gang members on the corner and in the distance at the other corner. At the middle of the street there are four girls holding their arms together blocking the taxi. The girls are harmless, one trying to talk through the window. The one on the left is smoking hot about 19-20 years old. This street is too hot to stop on, though. I tell him to try to make a quick connection with the hot girl. He says that it is too hot and he keeps moving. Damn it. WTF. He says we can come tomorrow and it will be safer and he knows the spot. I plead with him to go back and relents. I am praying all of the guys will disappear. We pass through again with the same setup. He tries to get her attention but can't stop. We move on.

We head up into Bello and there is a two block street of clubs. My taxi driver knows what I am looking for. A girl with a nice essence, who isn't working at a strip club. He and I are on the same page. We pull up in front these two clubs that are pretty small from the outside. Typical Colombian, aloof and rambling. I tell him what I want very clearly. He seems like a guy that might have something but I don't trust him. My taxi driver tells him that I don't have time for games and I want something quick. I love this guy as we are bonded. He says to park the taxi and come inside. We park and head in. There are about 30 people in the place, half guys and half girls. These girls are amazingly hot, at La Isla level or above. Jackpot? Not so fast. These are regular girls hanging out with their friends. These are upper class circles. I lean into my taxi driver and said "these girls aren't putas?" he clearly shakes his head No. The top 2-3 girls in this place are as good as you can find in Medellin and this is saying something. I tell the guy putas. He shows me 2 but they are not up to par. I tell the guy to forget about the crazy hot girls and show him some examples from the middle level girls who are more than hot enough. He says to come back tomorrow night. We call it a night and head home. Taxi fare 35 k, about $15.

Please guys don't come here and do this crazy stuff. Most of my friends who live here won't even do this stuff. I am a little crazy. Don't be like me, please.

Getting tired and not feeling well. This enough for now but I will write a little more going forward.

[Vegas Jeff]

You are an absolute riot dude!! I love reading your posts!

Thanks for the kind words, bro. Like you said I walk around stoned by I am not acting it either. I am almost always the one in my group to spot potentially dangerous situations first. I am also very good with Colombians and I know how to encourage them to go with my ideas and on my terms. 95% of time it works. When it doesn't I lower my voice and speak slowly but seriously. I tell that I am not like like the rest of these selfish, lying here in Medellin. I tell they are part of my plan and these are the details. Comprende? Normally I get a "Vamos". If this doesn't work I move on which is rare.

Everyone has been very cool with me on this board and I appreciate it. Even when I first wrote, BMs made kind suggestions regarding looking at dates on stale posts before responding and things like that. I wish people were cooler with other BMs. SavePros and Slam get on me from time to time about things but I appreciate it. Sometimes I drift off and need the rudder for the ship. I always try to bite my tongue with guys who are givers versus guys who are takers. Both of these guys give almost exclusively hence one should go slow IMO in criticizing these guys too much due to their giving nature. I also want to add that I was very depressed during December, when I wrote some lengthy posts. I am not a depressed-type person but everyone has their breaking point and I had reached it. The combination of negative things happening was overwhelming. I can grind through mentally and now I am recovering.

I have been traveling to Medellin for 3 1/2 years and have been a BM since shortly after arriving. I have seen some truly incredible things in Medellin. These things have shocked me to the core and I have never been the same since. All of my experiences have happened while a BM yet I had nowhere to put my stories. I have read very little that resembles some of my extreme experiences.

Well I am smoking pot and have a fever so I will write a quick TR. By the way, I have never written a TR I don't think. Well here goes.

Trips starts out terribly as my bad luck continued. I traveled with my 14 year old cat for the first time. Gave him a small piece of benadryl to calm him. He has an allergic reaction and throws up and is foaming at the mouth. Craziness continued and I made it to Medellin. Upon arriving the craziness continues. Lost my sim with Claro. Their records go back 6 months and for some reason they don't have my info. Lady proceeds to type in my passport with one number incorrect and someone else's info pops up. She proceeds to call a manager because I might be trying to pull something. 2 1/2 hours later everything gets straightened out. My apartment has all types of problems and no washer. The drama continues.

My girlfriend arrives on the second day and stays with me for 3 days. I am still not myself after 5 months in The States, my longest continuous stretch outside Latin America in 10 years. The pain of being without my girlfriend has been overwhelming and I will never do more than 3 months again. I have the sweetest girl and can't imagine living without her in my life. I told her that I have shut off part of my heart to cope with being without her and it will take some time to adjust to her and Medellin. She is sweet and mature and understands. I am very much in love. I talk with regular girls who are way, way prettier and I am not even tempted. This is a good sign that I am deeply in love. I would give up mongering to be with her but I am not feeling the pressure and may never feel it. At some point this might end for me but for the near term future I am still good. My phone never rings because I only allow texts from the working girls. I am very clear with them that I have a girlfriend and no drama will be tolerated. All of them are cool and there is rarely a problem.

I always hit the ground and get laid multiple times in the first few days. I waited a week until I had a few consistent dates with my girl so I could my feelings in the right place. After a week I am getting better. It is time to get out.

I head into El Centro to my pot smoking spot in the back of a casa. The jefe who I have known for 3 years is not there. They block my friends from entering. I have to have a talk with these two jefes who are watching the place. I said I have known the jefe for 3 years. I tell them that I give a 5 mil tip plus buy drinks and bring them clients. They say, no problem. After entering, the group of girls is the best I have seen in looks and attitude. I want to add that I have not had sex in this place in 2 years and enjoy the girls as friends. One girl I am clicking with. I usually just ask for BBBJ and go for BB in the room if this is what I am looking for. I ask her in the waiting room for BB sex and she agrees. Girl is slightly aloof and once in the room she thought I said BBBJ. I hold the session together and she was actually very sweet. Session is very average because I don't feel anything with the condom. This has just started to happen recently and this is not a good sign. Girl was fine and this average performance is on me. My ego is bothered as I am hungry for BB. I tell my friends that I am going to hunt for a girl with less than one month experience and have BB sex within the next two hours and will hunt 20 casas if necessary. On the hunt I go.

Pass through a bunch of casas and find a girl. She has worked there for two weeks. I always ask the jefe this question and then I ask the girl the same question shortly after separately. I ask her if we could smoke in the room. She says there is no way. I pull the jefe aside and asked him if there was a room with a window that I can smoke in. He say there is not. I ask him if I can go outside down the street and smoke with her for 10 minutes. He says no problem. She puts flip flops on and we exit and go to the corner. We smoke some while talking general things Medellin and I find out a bunch of things about her. Back in the room the session goes well and I get BB at no extra charge from the original 20 k BBBJ. I leave satisfied and call it a day.

At this point I have been in Medellin for over a week and need to go in the tougher areas of the north. My girlfriend lives in a very dangerous neighborhood but I am not ready to go there and visit her parents just yet. I beg one of my friends to take me out. I have no excuse to go into any tough neighborhood. He relents and we meet in El Centro and head North into an area just below Santo Domingo near the metro. It is about 6 pm. We hang out at a bar with a good scene of the locals. Pretty girl is sitting near us and we start chatting. She is dressed like a high end prepago and doesn't belong there. She lives in Floresta and says she works for the metro bus system. She says that her father lives in Santo Domingo and she is bored and just wanted to drink some beer. Her story doesn't add up. Very likely an internet prepago. Girl is pretty but I pass. My friend exchanges whatsapp with her. By the way this neighborhood is better than average for safety for The North. People are all around. Not to bad on safety. We wander around and I am smoking pot. We wander up the hill around 9 p. Guy in the street says there is a good restaurant a ways up the hill. Awesome. An excuse to wander further up into the darkness. After eating we wander into a park. Lots of pretty girls but lots of guys also. This is not a safe place to be so we leave. It is now after 10 and we are both a little buzzed and tired. I usually don't drink too much so the combination is hitting me a little. I grab a cab and drop my friend off in El Centro. Time to go home or so I thought. To be continued in Part 2.

[Dickhead]

I had two robbery attempts in El Centro, one successful and one remarkably unsuccessful, in two months, one at dusk (the successful one) and one in broad daylight. Neither time was I drunk, and I've never been successfully robbed anywhere else in the world. This was in 2008. Maybe it's safer now but Colombia is dangerous, always and everywhere, and things are never as they seem.

So let's be careful out there!

[Speculator]

I have never been robbed or drugged or had anything happen to me in 10 years of travel in Latin America. Part of this is luck and part of this is using my brain and blending in. I know of 3 locals who have been drugged by scopolomine in Medellin, but don't know of any foreigners. Over the next few months I expect to be involved in some crazy shit in Medellin so maybe my luck will run out. I have been walking around El Centro drunk and stoned recently. I hear of these stories in El Centro regarding the danger. I am an easier target than ever. Also, I only have between basic to intermediate Spanish. I am still waiting for these things to happen that I hear about. I am not too proud to write it here if something happens. We shall see.

You are an absolute riot dude!! I love reading your posts!

I too have spent an inordinate amount of time in El Centro. In the day mostly but also at night. I have never had a whiff of a problem in the day, and I'm talking lot's and lot's of time. I've read the scopalmine stories, and I do think about it from time to time as it would take away my power, which is the scary part. Who you are and how you carry yourself, luck and timing has a lot to do with staying out of trouble. Even though I walk around el centro stoned sometimes I'm not acting it. I'm still aware. I find being drunk is way worse. I did have an issue once at night in El centro, but I was very drunk, and I attribute this particular instance to that. However, I've been drunk in too many cities, too late, too many times and always got away with it. Rio and Sao Paulo oh my! This I don't like doing any more. Not in el centro for sure. I love centro in the day. At night it "feels" more dangerous for sure, but I love it also! It's not for everyone.

[Manizales911]

I'm so tired of hearing people spreading these bullshit scare stories.

Have you or anybody you know ever been drugged by scolpamine? Has anybody else on this forum? Mongers would be most susceptible to this yet I have never heard of this happening to anybody.

I've lived in El Centro for 2 months and got to know many of the girls that work there quite well, some of which became my friends. I've asked all of them at some point if they have ever heard of this drug and none of them knew what I was talking about.

My best friend's uncle died from being scoped, it is real and it is very dangerous. If the girls you are talking to say they haven't heard of it watch out because they are lying to you, and FYI they aren't your friends. I belong to a Colombian Facebook group and a few guys got scoped when they took a bunch of girls to San Andres, I don't know the guys personally but I know that there are several members here that know them.

Been in Medellin for a bit, back to Bogota tomorrow then back to the states. Had some wild times at La Isla. Though expensive, I highly recommend.

Last time I was at La Isla I was with a few guys and they were asking for some sort of bottle minimum. Do you know if you go there solo, can you get away with buying solo drinks or a half bottle or something? The cover and prices were pretty fair considering the quality, other than the ridiculous bottle charge.

[Ricker]

No need to disparage the older members in our mongering community. Those "old farts" may be the ones to pull your ass out of the fire one day.

Most of the mongers that have given my guidance over the years are twice, sometimes thrice my age. They have a lot of valuable wisdom to impart on others if you are willing to listen.

I agree, most of these dudes are very cool and chill.

I enjoy my conversations with them and have learned a lot, not just about Colombia but worlwide info, and more than just about the hunt.
