Medellin Reports

[Lefeu]

...Why would you go to a foreign country and not even consider learning some of the basics of the language? WTF is wrong with you people??

Not that easy my friend! Learning a new language is difficult for some, and too much work. There are so many translation apps around to take care of that, and they work well.

Having said that, I am one of those who enjoys picking up a new language, but I don't blame those who choose not to go through the hassle.

Am I going to need a copy of my passport to check into the ST motels in Centro?

The answer is no.

But I always carry a copy of my passport.

As a 6'3 white guy with blonde hair is there any hiding the fact that I'm a Gringo,. Thus if I show up in my shorts and t shirt will I be causing myself any undue trouble?

Most people would disagree with my opinion. But if done correctly, it's fine. No problem.

If you look and sound like a tourist, then you will be treated like a tourist, so I say dress like a tourist (with shorts). These days, IMO, it's not too bad of a social faux pax. No one stares at you if you wear shorts.

People here say that you will be a target. But we're targets anyway. IF you are smart, it will be fine. I would only stay in the crowded areas and always Uber.

People here say that you will be overcharged. Most/all girls will not ask for a higher price because you are wearing shorts. Regardless, know the market and pay accordingly. That's why reading this forum has great benefits.

People here say that you will be targeted by the police. IMO, I don't think so. I don't think the police are targeting the tourists. Posters here complained about being searched. But were they dressed as locals? I never see the police target business looking guys with their sports jacket. I see the police target young, "street" looking guys. The cops point, and the guys don't say a word. No whining about rights. The cops search them, and then let them go. Note to whoever plans to carry party favors. The police ALWAYS check inside of your hat during a search.

Once you get to the Mansion, just down the hill is La Strada Centro Comercial (Mall). I'm not sure what all is still open inside, but there is a Parmessano restaurant there which serves decent Italian food. There's also a Burger King.

Not far from there are the Oviedo and Santa Fe malls. Each has lots of different restaurants. Crepes and Waffles is pretty good and there's a location in both malls.

Directly above Burger King is The Taco House which has burritos very similar to Chipotle and the guac is no upcharge LOL. It's one of my regular stops when I'm staying in Poblado. BTW the Burger King appeared to be closed all winter until I left in March anyhow.

So she's late, an hour late now. And it's past 9 Pm. I wrote her and said I'm leaving and to cancel, and then she claim she's 15 minutes away. Then 30 minutes later, 9:40 sh. Still no show, and said 15 minutes away again LOL. At that point I said this is it. I am DONE, AND DONE.

We hear a lot of talk here about "culture" and "going with the flow," but try leaving one of them waiting and see how fast your phone blows up, usually within a minute of the appointed time. I tell them all that if they are more than 30 minutes late that the appointment is automatically cancelled.

[Osteoknot]

From anyone's past experience, how many prospects do you tend have going a trip and I'm curious what is the flake rate you can expect?

The majority of them will flake on you. Not to worry, only takes one or two girls you like to get the ball rolling. Tell them they can give your phone number out to their "friends. " You'll have your hands full in no time. Wash, rinse, repeat, and enjoy.

[Balboa]

I decided to make this trip different, yes I'm here with $5 k cash in hand plus a lot more that I can allocate, but I am tired of being a bank account. Meaning these girls put on a nice front, nice show, then really they aint worth shit. I know they're hoes and I'm not looking for love nor relationships. If I mention love here, I'm just screwing around and joking.

Standby for day 2.

Cool report!

And I agree with your assessment, I'm on the same wavelength.

It's amazing how many pregnant Vennies are out there, and if you saw ten obvious pregnant ones, in another month there will be another ten out there. A defnite field day for guys who like to bang pregnant Chicas.

I damn sure was not planning on visiting Medellin this trip, but with this kind of arm twisting, I may have to pop in for 2 days.

[Ruddock1]

Am I going to need a copy of my passport to check into the ST motels in Centro? I normally don't bring my passport out of the safe with me from Poblado. Any tips on picking up girls in Centro? As a 6'3 white guy with blonde hair is there any hiding the fact that I'm a Gringo,. Thus if I show up in my shorts and t shirt will I be causing myself any undue trouble?

[Daga2222]

Why would you do that? Why would you go to a foreign country and not even consider learning some of the basics of the language? WTF is wrong with you people??

I did do some basic duo lingo a few days before and relying on Google translate beyond that. My go to phrases right now are "hola", "gracias", "cuanto cuesta", "ok", "vamos", and "no hablo Espanol" LOL. But yeah the problem is that I can't understand any conversation because of the accent and how fast people speak.

[Osteoknot]

Quick intro.

I know I didn't properly introduce myself to the Forum so my apologies.

Carry on. Enjoy.

[BeachBumCeo]

Which is I immediately blocked, deleted all other SA contacts, closed all accounts. I'm done with all online BS for now. I didn't block the other SA girls but removed all from contact list, and there's only one if she contacts me I might partake. Otherwise no more ONLINE BS or appointments.
Standby for day 2.

I'm chatting with some girls online for my trip next month. Thank you for pointing out some common scam angles. I like having my first couple of dates set up before I get settled in. It has been well documented on this forum about the tardiness of the Colombian girls. I'm glad you put your foot down and left! Sucks you had to pay her to go away. But it's way better than causing a scene on your first night at the hotel!

Looking forward to your continued updates. I like your style!

[Surfer500]

Wow the number of pregnant chicas, the vast majority of them vennies, out selling their prego tummies and heavily 'used' bareback pussy (hehehe) is startling and of which I have not observed anytime in the past 10 years in and around centro. Counted no less than 10 of varying degrees of tummy pop out.

It was slammed with action all around centro and Botero and the vera with probably the most people and putas and activity but again this was a Saturday afternoon.

The Tall Man.

It's amazing how many pregnant Vennies are out there, and if you saw ten obvious pregnant ones, in another month there will be another ten out there.

A defnite field day for guys who like to bang pregnant Chicas.

And just think, these Chicas will be back within a few months of giving birth, and all the guys into lactating Chicas will be coming out of the woodwork to partake in them as well.

[MaddTraveler]

Quick intro.

I know I didn't properly introduce myself to the Forum so my apologies. I'm new here, from FL, early 40's, black dude, work in Finance + a day trader w few small biz. I've been to mult countries and picked up some Spanish from my adventures in the DR and Costa Rica. I've been to Colombia only a couple times before this trip so by no means I'm an expert quite yet even w my extensive experience in other countries.

MISC preparation.

- Took PCR test (Negative) although it was no longer a requirement. I wanted to ensure myself that I arrived clean. (Fully vaccinated w Pfizer).

- Check MiG is required or you won't be able to check in at the Airport (departure).

Chica preparation. SA, cupid, FB, tinder (deciding to retire from those, read on.)

- SA: Since I've had success with SA (seeking punto com) even in the states, I reinstated my membership couple weeks back and matched with at least 20 chicas daily when they add you as favorites. Lots of messages and I had at least 12 solid ones ranging from 8-10 that I each whatsapp with. But honestly SA is better in the states since our hobby is illegal there. So instead of taking risks with escorts, it's better to have a college beauty come spend the weekend in each for few hundred bucks. There are still risks and some scams but minimal as long as you don't send money to anyone upfront. In Colombia the game of the scammers is having their profile location in Medellin, then once you're communicating they're quick to say OH, I'm not in Medellin now, but if you invite me I will come join you, where obviously you must send her money for the trip and you'd just send some guy some free money somewhere. A couple of them said they didn't want money, only wanted to date and be pampered, even those I'm skipping since too suspicious.

- Cupid: Joined and had few matches, but cancelled / closed account and ceasing comm with all even real ones due to too many scams. This is now pure garbage, and I'm tired of chatting and falling in love with men pretending to me women w stolen pics LOL. Not worth it.

- Tinder / FB: I have about 200 fb beauties on an anonymous acct, all from Medellin mostly. But didn't contact any of them for this trip. I met some nice non-pros from Tinder last trip, but staying away from there this time around. Last trip was Dec 2020 and we had a curfew and made more sense to use those platforms then, but now I'm not seeing the need.

Airport arrival.

- Trip was slightly delayed from my departure, but worked out ok since I would've arrived too early for check in anyway.

- Medellin Airport was a breeze, approx 30 minutes in line.

- Once you pass immigration, luggage and custom, you can go upstairs before the exit to exchange money. The money exchanges downstairs were offering 3100, upstairs it's 3560 LOL, huge difference and.

It's close to what you can get at a good exchange in the streets. So I exchanged some of my stash there and went to find a taxi. Mafia asked for 100 k even though the going rate is 80 k. No biggie dude was.

Cool, we joked the entire trip, he has farms and small business trying to get rich. Took his number and paid him 120 k to show him I wasn't a cheap gringo after we got stuck in traffic ourselves.

Hotel and chica day 1. Arrival Sat 6/26.

- Ok this is the fun part. I usually stay in Poblado or Laureles. But since I'm here for 3 weeks, I only booked first week and decided to stay at Nutibara (845 k for 9 nights, double occupancy and can bring chicas at no fees). I booked it as such but during check-in they said it was for one, I negotiated and showed from booking what I requested and paid for, and they corrected it for no add'l charge (Great svc, thanks). I always stay in mult places on longer trips, why? Cause I'm partially nuts and get bored quickly. Got a nice room, high floor, glad to have a nice desk so I can work remotely (trading).

One of my fav hotel is Dorado la 70 which I might go to next week, but to do a quick comparison: Nuti has a safe where Dorado doesn't and it's big plus, hot water took 5 seconds vs Dorado which takes forever, Nuti is more chica friendly, breakfast just as decent, and can save on taxi roundtrips for the centro adventures which are within walking distance. I've been working from home like a cripple past few months, and can use the exercise, see people and walk around during the day. Besides Centro to me is the real Medellin, and I'm tired of feeling like a bank account especially in Poblado. Although my 3rd week I may spend few days there.

- So here we are, took a shower and updated few chicas I'm in town, even though I'm not feeling the vibe and planning to eliminate all of them later (Explained what happened below). Arranged for first SA chica to come at 8 p. She was the most friendly and most eager, solid 7.5 attitude 9. Meanwhile I went to two local bars, didn't write the names but had some ugly strippers, had one beer in each then left (5 k beer). Grabbed some food on a restaurant behind the hotel, food was good (12 k). It's now about 6 Pm.

- Back to room to nap. Now you might be thinking why stay in a dump comparing to the other fancy hotels and airbnbs in Medellin, also how could that impress the SA dimes? I have no pool, no jacuzzi, etc LOL. Well honestly, I cancelled some bookings on my previous plans to pamper some of these beauties. I did so after my overwhelming experience and aggression from many of them including the scam attempts, the lies, etc. WG are getting desperate.

I decided to make this trip different, yes I'm here with $5 k cash in hand plus a lot more that I can allocate, but I am tired of being a bank account. Meaning these girls put on a nice front, nice show, then really they aint worth shit. I know they're hoes and I'm not looking for love nor relationships. If I mention love here, I'm just screwing around and joking. I grew up and matured a lot since I became an investor, hence spending and doing wiser transactions even with hoes. For ex, many prev trip reports incl mine stated few Centro girls would charge 30 k, then put on some make up to charge 200 k in Lleras going after the suckers. Nothing wrong with that, just don't be that pappy chulo always. Why not spend half of your time in Gusto or Lleras, Isla or pricy girls, then other half with local down to earth girls that will ask for less at times? Yes Centro is not the safest and not for everyone, but it's not as scary as some make it seem honestly. These are mainly poor merchants in the streets trying to make a living. I just wanted to be around real people, see real life. Lleras to me is all fake, and all after my money. A pig with lipstick is still a pig LOL. Yes late at night I will go to lleras and will probably outspend you, and it's a fair balance to play the game.

Chica time.

- My date with first SA chica was to go have dinner, then go to lleras area for some drinks, dancing, then back to my place and she'd likely spend the night. No talk or discussion of money. It's one advantage of non pros on SA if you have the patience for it. Still going to eliminate it, but I must say it's still a valuable hunting source. So she's late, an hour late now. And it's past 9 Pm. I wrote her and said I'm leaving and to cancel, and then she claim she's 15 minutes away. Then 30 minutes later, 9:40 sh. Still no show, and said 15 minutes away again LOL. At that point I said this is it. I am DONE, AND DONE. That same rollercoaster happens each trip to many of us. I immediately decided I won't let any chica, who not only sees me as an ATM machine, to ruin my mood and vacation. Many others wanted to see me, and maybe I just chose the wrong one, oh well. I made it to Lleras alone, walkd around and found this beautiful blonde blanca. I had no chance (ya, a black man's kryptonite as they say). So I attempted to go the nearby Cabanas for two hours, but they only had deals for 6 hours 120 k, and another hotel in Lleras wanted 120 k for 1 hour, no gracias. I told taxi to take me to my hotel, and girl had askd for 200 k, but I offerd 150 k and acceptd. All smiles, very GFE and OMG she was sooo pretty, soft skin, already feeling a bonner and as I said. She had me.

Taxi cost from lleras back to Hotel incl stops at Cabana 14 k total, was one of the honest ones.

I expected to find SA chica waiting in lobby and she was. Wow. Almost two hours later, likely didn't have enough pesos for a trip back home. I walkd in, told Lleras chica to give me a min, walkd SA girl outside of Hotel lobby and askd her how much spent on taxi and how much to go back home. She said she don't know, she was very upset, almost about to cry. I said 80 k and she said sure but I gave her 100 k and she left. I really hated that, not just spending money for no reason, but the way some of these dumb bitches are. Told her clearly like 3 times to turn around and I'm not going to be there but she still came. I understand the need for money and the harsh times some of these are going through, unemployed, etc. So I can empathize even though I am not here to do charity, or maybe we are. The overall aggression and expectations sometimes is what gets me, and I know there are worse cases and this one could've really been stranded with no cash. It's better to not deal with someone who's too desperate or be in the unknown. This is why some guys negotiate everything and have everything in writing and I don't blame them.

It's the part of what I mean by being a bank acct, she prob spent 10 k to arrive and wanted to get paid for her time anyway, and wouldn't treat a local Colombian that way. So the more I can eliminate those events and me a foreigner being taken advantage of, the better. Which is I immediately blocked, deleted all other SA contacts, closed all accounts. I'm done with all online BS for now. I didn't block the other SA girls but removed all from contact list, and there's only one if she contacts me I might partake. Otherwise no more ONLINE BS or appointments.

- Llera chica was super freaky yet classy. She put on some nice raggaeton music, bluetooth to my speaker, danced, lap dance, then naked lap dance, super hard bonner. Then great BBBJ for at least 20 minutes. I don't go down on putas but I was tempted since she had a beautiful pussy. So we kissed a little, condom, missionary, sweet moans OMG she's feeling great. I almost nuttd but decided nah. Let's flip you around. Doggy it is and she likes it and moaning louder, turned around for kissing while in doggy. At this point I'm grabbing her and some hard pounding you know it's coming. LOL, then ohhhhhh shit here it is. Damn girl, that was some good shit, she smiled and didn't understand what I just said. We layed down and cuddled a bit. She dressed up and left. 150 K, 11 k propina for taxi. Look is Solid 8, performance 9.

Standby for day 2.

[MiamiSammy]

First time here. Did zero prep work. Don't speak a word of Spanish. I didn't realize how fucked I was until the immigration officer said something in half English and I could not understand until she wrote it down on paper. I'm in a hotel next to parque Lleras for the night. Just getting my bearings and getting some rest after a long flight. Tomorrow I'm checking into the mansion for several days. Will I be alright there or should I learn some basic Spanish? Also, any good casual restaurant recommendation near parque Lleras?

Thanks.

Why would you do that? Why would you go to a foreign country and not even consider learning some of the basics of the language? WTF is wrong with you people??
