Medellin Reports

[Socker]

Also, it was on my last trip that a chica introduced me to a word I had never heard before: "Viejito." She said she was disgusted that there are so many "viejitos" at the mansion that wanted to fuck her.

It's fucked up, but that's how she felt about it. Not my words.

Yeah these are your words! Who the fuck cares about what some thinks? For you to quote her here is to hit older dudes below the belt, that's the purpose or maybe to enlighten us older guys of who we're really dealing with. Either way your info here and now does nothing to improve anyone's time in Meddy, your info is meant to malign older dudes, congrats bro, well done!

I thought better of you, too bad you need to pass on negative bullshit that helps no one.

This forum should be a positive place for all interested in Medellin, young, old, big, small, attractive, unattractive, pro, non pro.

But hitting below the belt is easy and the Medellin Forum is ground zero for this kind of (uninteresting) petty shit. Too bad.

If guys like staying at the mansion then that's their business, plain and simple, there is no justification for put downs. None!

But for some here they don't tolerate other methods of operation, everyone has to be like them. In stead of having fun and good connections here we have the put downs.

This place is a joke, a bad one.

And the down side to staying at an apartment is that some women just don't want to go to some guys apartment that they have never met in person.

The only time I have run into this situation was when trying to deal with chicas who were not "in the game". The other 99% of the time I've had no problems with a chica I've never met in person (conversing only via fb or whatsapp) coming to my apartment.

Believe it or not, but these chicas have a network and they talk to one another. On my last trip, I had one chica who told me that the only reason she agreed to see me was because she asked her amiga about me, and her amiga told her "Siii. El es muy cariño!"

So if you (not the OP) are a duchebag, word gets around quickly.

The only real down side to staying at the Mansion is that some women just don't want to be seen there.

There are some chicas that are at the Mansion Mon-Sun because they don't have shit else going on in their lives. You know, the ones who's photos are in EVERY Mansion newsletter that goes out. Johanna Castro, Barbiee Steph, Tk Torres Torres (A*K*A Kathe Sierra) are a few that come to mind. These broads would live there if staff didn't kick them off premise every night (Barbiee A*K*A Yamii actually was living at Mansion 2 off and on for a while in the room on the bottom floor close to the pool).

Then there are those chicas that actually have shit going for them outside of hooking at the Mansion that only come there occasionally, like during Super Bowl, 4th of July, Halloween, etc. These are the chicas most concerned about where I am staying when I ask them to visit, and are relieved once I tell them I have an apartment and am not staying at the Mansion.

Also, it was on my last trip that a chica introduced me to a word I had never heard before: "Viejito." She said she was disgusted that there are so many "viejitos" at the mansion that wanted to fuck her.

It's fucked up, but that's how she felt about it. Not my words.

Ran into a second, sometimes mansion girl asking for 200 k.

Last week, two acquaintances, both.

Very Latin, veteran mongers, but visiting MDE for the first time, werre asked for 200 k by Parque Lleras party girls.

I think it has to do with the devauation of the peso.

I do not think it has anything to do with the exchange rate. These girls can't even follow a monthly budget or save up for their semester payment and they know exactly when those are coming!

The hotter girls have always asked for more because they can get it. Some girls are following suite it seems. That Mery Mari girl loves to scream about $200 plus and she's one of the newer queen bees.

Yes I'm sure a party girl prostitute stays up on the currency market. She asked for 200 because she thought you would pay it.

Was she right?

Yup. Vast majority of these girls have no idea what the USD / peso exchange rate is. Only exceptions if she travels a lot outside Colombia or if some loser gringo explains it to her (thinking he's getting brownie points?)

I'm personally insulted when a prepago pulls that shit on me. She's basically treating me as a fool.

If the peso devaluation caused the 200 k Ask, why aren't Centro casas more now than they were when the peso was in the 1800 to 1900/$ range? Why aren't hotels 80% more than they were?

I think my examples are typical but the situation you describe is unique to the micro-economy of the niche Business. Good on them, no one is putting a gun to the heads of guys who ay those prices. They want the service that is provided. It's not a Bad thing because it has no effect on guys who aren't customers.

Can anyone provide an in progress review?

Use Uber and forget about fake bills, having cash, or a dodgy taxista. Best of all, its cheaper than the already cheap little yellow guys.

I respect your opinion (no sarcasm). You are as well travelled as I am or may be more. I represent the other end of the spectrum though. I exclusively use taxis in all countries and I have never used public transport in north or South America.

Interesting thing about fake bills. I asked a friendly middle aged taxista about it once. He said (I am paraphrasing him), " taxis deal almost exclusively with cash. We don't print those bills and we end up with them ourselves. We can't take them to a bank because we have to deal with police and legal system and we can't afford the hassle for a 10 or 20,000 peso bill. I am sure some taxi drivers try to pass them off to tourists since they are less likely to recognize".

Use Easy taxi app and you can even have your CC info in there. Works like a charm. Just tip the guy in cash. Don't have to worry about fake bills or having exact change. He he.

I'm interested in what others think. I think a drivers license, Colombian or one from any other country, comes off as less suspicious at military and police controls. Passports are for immigration purposes. I agree a copy is a better way to carry it around but unless you need it for banking or other official purpose, I've never had a problem with a government ID like a passport card or drivers license. I agree with Surfer, it's always best to have some kind of ID to avoid law enforcement hassles.

I agree. Colombian cops are used to seeing cedulas when they run these checkpoints. Closest thing to that for foreigners is a drivers license. If you show a foreign drivers license you will be fine. These checkpoints aren't looking for gringos who have overstayed their visas. They are looking for drugs, weapons, stolen motos and other contraband.

I have been through these checkpoints on a moto and they wanted to see my SOAT (insurance) and cedula. I have been searched and not searched, but mostly when they realize you are a foreigner they don't fuck with you that much. I've only had good experiences with Colombian police, but my Paisa GF swears that they treat foreigners better than they treat Colombians.

La Mayorista has been really busy the last two nights. A lot of women and not a lot of customers. Many bargains to be had! Some cute talent to go with the veterans.

Tonight at around 12:30 in the morning I was returning from El Centro to Poblado in a taxi. On Calle 10 going up the hill before Parque Poblado there was a checkpoint and we where stopped. I was searched and then asked for my "credentials" I had a reduced copy of my Passport that was laminated in plastic along with a US Passport card I showed them. They looked them over and than said they needed to see the original documents. I told them that they could see the original of the Passport but they would have to come to my Hotel as it was locked up in a safety deposit box. After that they said I could go.
