Medellin Reports

[Chaman]

Beside Bar Gustos, is there any other bar where most of the girls are mainly prepagos. I heard about Bendito seas, but not sure if there is more a normal disco and maybe with just few prepagos.

I remember seen one more on Lleras, not sure if it was something like Hacienda, but that day very few girls where there.

Also for casas that suppose to be more high end, what is recommended, I have not seen comments on Loutron or Candy house, are they worth the price? I am usually looking for young looking and natural girs without silicone and better without too many tatoos.

Ok then, high end is not the correct wording. I just want to look for natural girls, few tattos are ok, but no sillicone. Last time at Gustos I meet two girls, without tatoos without sillicone, they were chariging 400 K COP pesos.

I would get the advise to look for other discos.

Thank you all.

I would throw a few pesos on my SIM card using ding.com.

You can top it up yourself online using several websites. The one I use is etopuponline. Com.

Undoubtably a good (and obvious) advice. I admit I thought about that only minutes after posting. It is also possible to top up on the Movistar web site. I will do that the week before travelling.

Still, I need to buy a new SIM card for data, to place in my mobile wifi router (MIFI). That's less urgent, but I hope there will be some shop open at late hours in the MDE airport.

When I went on that Pablo Escobar tour, the guide said that it started from chicks trying to impress the drug dealers and get their attention.

I doubt that the guide of Pablo Escobar tours is a reliable source of information about Colombian society. To say the least, he claims what he knows can impress the average participant to those tours. Mr. E, what did you do in such a tour?? You disappoint me! (joking).

Why is every other post, or so it seems, about how much one is supposed to pay, bragging about how little one pays, blah blah?

Not to digress, but I had to change plans about going to MDE in November due to work. I'm thinking of January. Is that considered low season and less touristy?

January is typically when Colombians go on vacation. No idea what that means for MDE but Cartagena will be packed.

I face the risk to be overwhelmed by a load of RTFFs. Be free to do that. I won't complain. Still I hope someone can shed a light on this with a summary of his knowledge.

I will arrive to MDE airport late at night (22:30). Therefore, even assuming instant luggage delivery, I will be in city not before 23:30.

I have a very old SIM card by Movistar for calls, which apparently never expires (it never did in the last 5+ years, and I never registered it, even with 1 year of no use between usage periods), and I also have a Claro SIM for data only, which I am sure expired already after 3 months out of Colombia.

Is there any place in the MDE airport, which is still open after 22:30, which can top up my Movistar card? And even buy a new one for data? In BOG, I know the booths are open till later, but in MDE?

If not, do I have any chance to do that in town around 24:00? I need to have a working SIM card, to get in touch with a lady (not a stunning one, around 30yo, without tattoos, no silicon, yet one of the most incredible naughty ones) the same night even if I am out of the hotel which gives me the WIFI.

Thanks in advance.

I hear all these guys talking outside by the balcony area of how much the girls want etc etc and now I find myself laughing cause I know better than to pull from there.

Unless I see an absolute stunner that I just got to have. I wouldn't even consider it but it is fun to go check it out and have a drink or 2.

I think we need educate these guys when possible, the information is available for anyone with little effort. But if these guys keep coming and pay the 200 USD at Gusto, then more girls will flock to Gusto and it should have an effect on the rest of the market long term. This could end up in stunners being hard to get outside of Gusto prices range.

I can't see how these two market can co-exist long term (we shall see), where one is asking 200 USD and next door is asking price 200 K pesos. I know the guys paying 200 USD are still an extreme minority and novice travelers, that's why the the market hasn't changed but when the tourist volume to MDE increases I would expect changes to have an effect. Unless guys stop paying those dumb 200 USD we may have a Morocco situation here which was inflated by rich arabs. I can understand that occasional 200 USD where you say I can't find a girl like this anywhere else but that excuse is not valid in Colombia.

The question is are these guys aware of what they're doing (probably not) to their pocket and possibly the market, because stunners are not exclusive to Gustos. If I heard those guys talking in the balcony I would definitely ask them to open their eyes or fly to Paris or London and pay 200 USD and sleep at a 300 USD hotel, there you can live your western life to the fullest and no need to learn spanish, win-win.

Are you sure it is all of Colombia or is it a product of the narco culture of primarily Medellin and partially Cali? I am talking about the enhancements and not the tattos.

You can use etopup. Com or ezetop. Com to recharge your SIM cards from any Internet connected device. You don't even have to RTFF.

There are dozens of more normal discos. Most discos, especially on Friday and Saturday nights, will have at least a few working girls. Working girls in Medellin like to go to discos on the weekends. Quite a few of the discos know this and frequently offer free drinks to women.

If you go to the high end places, looking for the high end girls, you're mostly going to find silicone and tattoos. The Colombian ideal is big boobs, big butts. So they go out and get the option package as soon as they can afford it.

If you're looking for good looking Colombian girls with no tattoos and no silicone, you're looking for a possible long visit in one of Colombia's fine government run extended stay facilities.

You are implying that only under-aged girls have no tattoos or silicon enhancements. You have been in Medellin long enough to know better. I have almost a hundred female acquaintances in Medellin, all 18 and over, and probably half of those have no tattoos or enhancements. Other guys have said that many of them are very attractive.

[ColombiaLover]

High end is often silicone (ass and tits), but not necessarily tatoos. I have seen lots of high end girls with no tatoos or, if they have one, it's one and its small and tasteful. IMO, tatoos are ore for the true ghetto girls. Especially the ones that have sleeves or large tats on their thighs. Or tatoos that are poorly done.

Seeing that the ones with silicone and tattoos is usually what is called more high end, I think you have a choice to make.

What is this extended stay option? I have never heard of it. Hehe.

[Knowledge]

I was including the cost of one of the girls. I assumed that they are part of the attraction. It was mentioned that many attractive women attend the party. I did not mean to offend anyone by suggesting we could fuck them at 200 k or so each. Was I wrong?

Where did you get a half million pesos from? The price is $220,less than a quarter of a million pesos,75 bucks for a night out having a good time is too much? Wow.

[Manizales911]

I'm not the biggest drinker so close to half a million pesos to pick amongst facebook girls in costumes and rub elbows with the Cafe Juan Valdez crowd is not the deal for me. I hope others enjoy it.
