Medellin Reports

[Paulie97]

I assume your friend fought the muggers otherwise I don't know why else he would've gotten stabbed. Word the wise, never fight back and never bring anything you can't afford to lose going to sketchy places whether day or night.

This is of the most popular assumptions and is worth correcting every time it comes up. Everyone expects a gentleman's robbery, one or more guys facing the victim, displaying a weapon and asking for money. You might get that. But it's at least equally likely that they will attack, hit your pockets, and run without making any requests. These simply lack the sophistication of gentleman robbers. Wink.

P.S. It always pay to have some cash on you, though not a large amount. If they go to all the trouble to find only pocket change they might take their frustrations out on your head.

I wish these girls understood how sex that clean body is to some guys. That is why I dabble in non-pros. More likely to find someone without tats (or maybe a small one). Unless you are rooting around in the ghetto.

After I saw that foto posted, I thought, JFC, she looks like someone just delivered her from the morgue. I promise she was alive and kicking and happy when she left with 200 mil COP more in her bag, jajaja.

I talked my ex-wife out of getting tattoos a couple of times in the beginning of the last craze when all the girls were doing it, still are I guess. I told her in the end, you will stand out for NOT having tattoos in a favorable way. Now she agrees, and when your ex-wife agrees with you about anything, it's gold.

3 of us went out a few times at night. I kept thinking I don't feel safe. When I'm in Centro at night, I walk from A-be with purpose, I don't saunter. On the night in question we were out around 7 ish, dark. I picked up a girl, went back to San Peter, she got refused in the end. Later I get a knock on my door, it's K, he's asks if I have seen HappyShiva as he got split up from him. He then lifts up his top and shows blood coming from his abdomen and proceeds to tell me how his phone died and he got seperated from HS as he was talking to a girl, then got jumped on by 4 guys. This happened coming from the strip behind Veracruz, heading towards Victoria Taberna, behind the Antioquia museum where there is like a quiet stretch. Yes he looks like a very obvious gringo, Chinese decent. That's as much detail as I have.

I know exactly where this happened based on your description. Given how quick a group of guys can rob you, makes sense where he got jacked up where there weren't a lot of people. The lesson to be learned here is that if your an obvious gringo, and in your friends case, an obvious foreigner who doesn't fit in based on his race, you have a big "X" on your back marking you as a target, and need to be very cautious while in El Centro, especially after sundown. I hope your friend is okay.

I feel like we need a sticky in the Medellin section for people going to El Centro, this isn't Asia where practically everywhere is safe & you never have to worry about any of this.

ISG is a great forum but damn its infrastructure is antiquated. I'm on all types of forums and this is the hardest to navigate. If it were better organized less questions would repeated and less people would be scolded to RTFF, LOL. Each city should have annually updated stickies, I was just reading up the newest Bogota FAQ "sticky'" from like 2018. Well, maybe its better the lay person not know of our exploits.

Stay Nasty.

[Osteoknot]

I now have around 2 non working girls which are easy to find around here. By non working I mean I don't discuss price or how long they will stay. The main one stays 2-3 days cooks cleans and fucks like a champion. No matter how long she stays she gets fed, watered, stuff bought for her kid and a $100,000 COP, no more no less?

From the Section rooting for regular girls.

[Osteoknot]

I like deals. I'll set up my 2 days off work, car rental and hotel, plus airfare, once you've sent the money. Call it $3000 in advance. I'll even video it for you. Now, what self-respecting monger who couldn't teach you anything more taught you to walk around with your wallet? You don't need no wallet. Nobody is going to ask to see your high school prom photo and your social security card. You might as well carry a sign pointing to your money.

Left front pants pocket, phone. Right front pocket the majority of your money. Also ATM card if you're going to the ATM. Left rear pocket, hotel key with enough cash to get you back to your room. Right rear pocket all your small bills with a single 20 or 50 k wrapped around it.

"Come on now, send a mongerer I never met, $3000 cash up front with no collateral or guarantees? Do I seem like I fell of the turnip truck yesterday? After pre-paying chicas for pussy and blow job credits that has to be one of the stupidest ideas I ever heard, jaja.

But I like your willingness to engage. Did I say something about my wallet? I'm too lazy to check. I don't carry one unless you count this (foto). At least you have a spine without being accusatory and defensive, for this post. I don't remember the others. I like short term memory for places like this. I liked your pocket tips. That could go into a book about mongering. Hmmm.

What is your opinion on this set up? The foto with it under the arm is how I wear it. If I leave it even partially open. EVERYONE tells me to zip it (yeah, I know, straight man set-up), strangers, police, chicas. I'm assuming the pick pockets here are talented. I heard about the "cut and run" where they cut the strap so I picked one with an extra heavy duty strap.

Bought it in Chiang Mai, Thailand, have been to at least eight countries with it, here, USA, and SE Asia, no problems. I always wonder, do you think the appearance Invites trouble or not?

When people say El Centro is dangerous and people should avoid going there at night it's definitely naive people like you and your friend.

1. I assume that part was deserted at 7 pm, this isn't Parque LLeras, why the hell are you guys looking for street walkers at 7 pm in El Centro and are obvious foreigners?

2. Covid19 has decimated the global economy and the longer these lockdowns continue the worse it's going to get. People are hungry and desperate, as much of a budget traveler I am I wouldn't be going there until covid is over, atleast not at night & hell even in the daytime I'm sure there are more pick pocketing etc going on if you were to listen to the news.

Please tell more about "the" girl being denied entry, no ID? Because I texted the manager from San Peter apartments and he said, as many girls as you want still, just one at a time, when read your first post I was thinking you had two, but now you cleared that up saying girl,.

And why you checked out, and did you find a better place to stay? Sorry about what happened to your friend, glad he's somewhat OK!

[ChuchoLoco]

I'm loving it so much that I extended my stay here. I do have a lot of things to write about but I'm just going to add cliff notes now and go into more details later.

I could have more of these arrangements but San Peter is hampering my efforts as it's almost impossible for me to get girls past the gatekeeper, so much so I've moved out yesterday. On my next post I'll go into detail on this.

3 of us went to Centro one night as we usually did, one got seperated from us and got stabbed and mugged by 4 guys, not badly injured but traumatised and he went home. I was in centro alone last night. Walked from Avenida to Barra, I survived but I wouldn't go near botero alone.

So did the girl have a cedula as required? Did reception see your buds stabbing and blood or hear about it? There is more to this story for them to be "hampering your efforts".

And after all that you go to Centro at night solo?

[HelloIm]

My question is, if these girls get pregnant from BBFS, do they even have the financial resources to get you to paternity test? How will they even find you after you switch hotels / accommodations for the umpteenth time? How will they even know your real name?

[MMHikeus]

Unless the plan involves someone picking me up at the airport, I don't even go that far. There are a few girls I'll let know when I'm arriving, but that's it. I also tell them "if I have time."

I had one girl who was upset this last time because my illness kept me from seeing her. She told me she wasn't worried about getting sick and still wanted to come over.

Plan where you're going to stay, figure out what source you're going to use to get laid. Everything else is best left until you're checked in.

Good advise. The last time I returned after the quarantine, I wanted to get laid as soon as I checked into my room. Unfortunately, my flight arrives at midnight, and it was 1. 30 am by the time I got checked in. I did have food and drinks delivered to my room ahead of time. I had 3 chicas on standby, knowing that some will flake, but one of them came through. She showed up at 2 am, by the time I showered. She came and showered, and after the physical excersion, we eat and she left, and I passed out. Good times. I usually keep at least 2 girls on standby for each day. They will flake for any number of reasons. LOL.

[JohnnyO]

Can you provide details on this as to specifically what time and where. And was this victim an obvious gringo? I ask because a lot of times members unknowingly let their guard down and when they least expect it they get jacked up. I hope this guy is okay.

It is, I was there for 10 days a couple weeks ago. I had 2-3 girls a day visit me (even during the lock down) and had no problem with staff. Maybe its the staying for several days? Though I don't see why that would be an issue. I had several overnights and they never said anything to me. I'm interested in hearing what happened.

I stayed there Dec 7th to 31. No problem with girls visiting or staying overnight. Their policy has always been that all visitors, regardless of gender, need to present a valid unexpired ID for admission. Girls need to be over 18. Colombians need to present a cedula. Non Colombians, an unexpired passport. No other documents accepted. Documents need to be originals, no pictures, photocopies etc are accepted. This effectively rules or Venezuelan chicas. Other than that, they really don't care, as long as you keep the music down and not do any lewid acts in public areas. They will scan the ID into the system, and announce your guest with a phone call. Also, they will call you if your guest is leaving unaccompanied, and with extra bags, LOL. I gave some stuff to a friend, and they wouldn't let her leave before calling me.

The only change due to covid-19 is that, only one guest allowed at a time. So threesome's or more not possible till covid-19 protocols are lifted. They also check temperature when entering.

I'm also curious to learn the details of Johnny O's lament about the San Peter gatekeepers, especially given my planned return there in a few weeks. When I stayed in the building for several months back in early 2020, I found the ladies at the front desk to be admirably Girl Friendly (courteous, not just permissive), albeit super strict about IDs. I had one Venezuelan amiga whom they wouldn't admit even though she had a very legit looking, photo Cedula issued to immigrants like her. I appealed to the manager who told me that this form of ID was too easily faked, and insisted that my chica should obtain another form of ID (I forget what it was called but one supposedly available to persons of her problematic status).

A couple of months ago, when I was contemplating a return to Medellin, I wrote the San Peter asking if their guest policy had changed due to the pandemic. They wrote back as follows: You can have as many guests as you want, but only one at a time. Everyone must have a valid id and enter and exit with a face mask. Maybe something has changed since then, but I'd be surprised.

[BootyBandit84]

Has their visitor's policy changed? I thought San Peter was one of the few guest friendly apartment buildings.
