Medellin Reports

[Huacho]

Thank you, I learn another thing, next time I should google in Spanish for Spanish question too.

Actually I googled in English 'el Mar. Vs la Mar.'

Now I hope no one takes this as a complaint about the autocorrecting software, which is truly awesome, but periods and commas go inside quotation marks. Semi-colons and colons go outside quotation marks. I write correctly.

[Nounce]

I will do 250 Colombian pesos I thought she meant US.

You are not in Medellin, right? Based on your reaction to her price, think about her reaction to you not in Medellin. The other member reported similar price also not in Medellin, that is easily two reported in a short time, it can easily be 100 men not ready to session contacting her. Based on this reason, I won't necessary write her off.

I'm not much of a poster, but the information here really helped me, so I want to give out the info that I have accumulated this past month. First off, I came on the first of January and just took a taxi because I was tired as shit and paid 90 k. I didn't speak more than 5 words in Spanish, so I recommend a few apps preloaded. 1. is sayhi by amazon which I enjoyed when talking to the girls but required internet and 2. Is of course google translate when you got no internet and need to say shit at a snail's pace. Regarding hotels, I moved between Leblon suites hotel and Estelar apartments Medellin. For both I recommend to book for two people then even though you bring different people they never charge the guests (at least in my experience). During my stay I hung out with a couple of ISG guys, and they were great guys and showed me great things. So, I recommend you try to make some friends here which if anyone is coming into Medellin or is here message me and we can meet up because I am in Medellin till the end of February.

The internet Chicas:

In my experience Medellin is a place that can make any man happy, you just have to know what you like. Me as the ISG boys would say am a sentimental * and so I came in with my shit ready. I added up a lot of Facebook girls' weeks before coming as well as started tinder Platinum for that non pro experience. Facebook girls is once again based on what you want. I like to make an hour session into a 3 hour or an overnight stay. So, I try to go with girls who seem less pro and always smoked weed with them to get them to relax, not to mention the better sex. Tinder girls on the other hand is an interesting game to play which I enjoyed because I am too much of a * to talk to girl in real life with just a translator. I am 30 so I think that helped me with getting matches as well as the premium. I was honest with them about my language skills but told them half-truths of what I was looking for. Something I recommend for guys going this route is understand your assets and use them. I am never going to as interesting to them as a native speaker will or will have the shared experiences that they would share with their male counterparts. But what I do have is money and a different attitude towards things which I think really helped my game. So, I used them, I would pay for things like dinner and transport while they showed me places that I would otherwise never see as well as amazing Latina sex. I was never really afraid to show that I had money because let's be honest there really isn't too much else a gringo can offer and a lot of them were OK with that. When it came to drugs, I got tired of people trying to hustle the gringo so I would just get these girls to bring me shit I wanted to do with them which was weed for the most part, other than a few times in which I wanted to try Colombian drugs which made them open up to me and made the experience more authentic.

The Street walkers:

My boy Blingz loved the street walkers and did well with them. We would go to Lleras park, and he taught me a great method which as a non Spanish speaker is a fucking blessing. He would just put in +57 on his phone and go to the girl and she would just put in her number, and you could talk to her later and set whatever you want up. A couple things of note and keep in mind I'm a sentimental * so your experience might differ and your end result might be different because of your expectations. These girls are trying to get back to the park as fast as possible. So don't expect an amazing experience often or anything more in regard to service. The Lleras park club is not really a club but rather a stupid way to waste money because every single girl there is a working girl. So, picking them up in the club is kind of pointless because they also have a deal with the club to get you to pay 50 mil on a drink as a way for them to make more money. Also, don't take taxi from the park because they will overcharge you, but rather just take Didi or uber. But like I said the benefit of these girls and the park is that you get what you see and they seem good for the most part, but make sure to use common sense and remember that you are in foreign country at the end of the day.

Non girl info.

Like I said try to get these girls to take you places once you trust them because why the fuck not LOL. Go see some of Medellin because it's honestly beautiful and so different to the garbage I see in Canada. Places like Comuna 13 with the graffiti as well as the cable cars that take you to Avri park. Sabaneta at night or even for breakfast is such a beautiful experience so make sure you hit that shit up as well as all the other places I forgot to mention.

Things I stumbled on:

- Don't stay in Botero plaza past daytime and make sure to watch your surroundings.

- While I haven't been robbed, I have had a few close calls, so make sure to take some precautions. Like separating your money in case, you get robbed and need money to get back to your hotel.

- Don't fucking think your special to these Facebook girls and grow feelings for them. Understand what you are and try getting a better experience, but no matter what they say, know that you don't mean shit to these girls.

- If you are a non Spanish speaker like me, don't be afraid to ask for help and try to remember that we are all people so most people are nice enough to help.

- The first few days of being here, I really had trouble getting rid of the street hustlers, but just learned to say gracias and not give them attention as I walked.

- if you sit on the patio right beside to walkway in a restaurant and you are accessible from the street, by the pedestrians, be prepared to get hassled by guys trying to get money from you.

That's all I can think of right now, but hopefully this helps somebody who is interested in Medellin. Also, I just want to say this community of guys is great and I wouldn't have had the experience that I had without the guys I met in real life from this message board. But I am still here for a while so anyone who is cool to hang, private message me.

I will do 250 Colombian pesos I thought she meant US.

She wouldn't be asking for $5 taxi fare if she meant $250 usd.

So I get stories, pictures and lessons in economics. Ostee is a true legend.

I blocked him. A woman's asshole does not arouse me. Or photos of them.

And it gets down to 20 degrees at night so be sure to bring a big down jacket. But seriously, any country that uses pesos makes it more complicated for the newbie gringo, because the $ sign is also used for pesos and in fact originated that way. Gringos don't face that issue with euro, yen, sterling, etc. Because the symbols are different. Then there is the height and weight thing. If a chica says she is 1,70 and 60 that doesn't mean she is 5 feet tall and weighs 170 pounds. That would be kinda fat to say the least. She means is 1,7 meters tall (between 5'6" and 5'7") and weighs 60 kilograms or 132 pounds. So get a bit familiar with the money, the temperature system, the measurement schemes, and so forth before you go.

But this seems to be a sloppy way of trying to get it. Is it that many guys that fall for this? (Well I guess so since people are afterall sending money for pics and videos.) But it seems she could have at least tried to be sweet and lure me in instead of biting my head off when I asked for things to do in her hometown.

Nobody ever accused these chicks of being smart businesswomen. Yes, lots of gullible, desperate, and / or dumb gringos who fall for this nonsense.

Thanks for the interesting post, What is the difference between la mar. And el mar.? I see many restaurants are called "la mar." and not "el mar.".

I cannot say for sure that the restaurants are playing on this or not but you might want to blame Ernest Hemingway (he had a second home in Cuba) for the restaurants calling themselves that, here is a quote from "The Old Man and the Sea" which was written in Cayo Blanco Cuba.

"he always thought of the sea as 'la Mar.' which is what people call her in Spanish when they love her. Sometimes those who love her say bad things of her but they are always said as though she were a woman. Some of the younger fishermen, those who used buoys as floats for their lines and had motorboats, bought when the shark livers had brought much money, spoke of her as 'el Mar' which is masculine. They spoke of her as a contestant or a place or even an enemy. But the old man always thought of her as feminine and as something that gave or withheld great favours, and if she did wild or wicked things it was because she could not help them. The moon affects her as it does a woman, he thought. "

So that one is like radio but not for the same reason. Nouns that can be feminine or masculine depending on context are known as 'sustantivos ambiguos. ' With 'Mar.' the story I heard was it was originally a neuter noun in Latin. Interestingly, and there are few other nouns like this, even though you can say 'el Mar.' OR 'la Mar.' in the singular, in the plural it is always male, 'LOS mares. ' What I would hear a lot in Spain was 'el Mar.' for the sea but 'alta Mar.' (feminine) for high tide. Here is a decent explanation:

https://www.diccionariodedudas.com/la-mar-o-el-mar/

Note that you will fairly often hear native speakers of Spanish say 'la problema' and one time in a shit hole called Clorinda there was a kid selling water in the street yelling 'La agua la agua la agua' (agua is a feminine noun but takes the masculine article because the initial -a is stressed). Yet another time I heard a chicano in Guatemala bragging about being bilingual and he then said 'la agua,' 'la problema,' and 'la DIA' (should have an accent over the eye) all in the same paragraph. My point is, just like native speakers of English say shit like 'if I was you' doesn't mean it's correct and as you learn Spanish you will hear a lot of bad grammar on the streets.

[AtlNightmare]

That is something you should always clarify. It's very common for girls to say 200 or 250 when they mean 200 or 250 mil pesos. However, there are some girls who expect you to think they are talking in pesos, bit they want dollars when in your room.

The solution is simple. Respond with, for the girl you mentioned.

Siempre pago 200 mil mas taxi, o 250 mil no mas para taxi.

I always pay 200 k plus more for taxi, or 250 k with nothing more for taxi.

Noted will do thanks!

Until such time, I will continue to document this journey. I have no idea what is next, but I promise it will be different and better.

... Of course her angle would be money. But this seems to be a sloppy way of trying to get it. Is it that many guys that fall for this? (Well I guess so since people are afterall sending money for pics and videos.) ...

I think that may be her handler who can be a man if you have not confirmed before. That person could be talking to many men so is not keeping track and sending out the pictures to everyone.

Me too and it's served me well over the years. Apply some kind of minimum standard such as '6' or '7' or whatever and then it should be about the vibe with the woman. That will result in the best sex. That's what the board should be about: the best sex and how and where to get it as quickly and cheaply as possible with the least hassle. Running around looking for the elusive '10' or your narrow idea of a '9' will eliminate a lot of great sex. And I don't know from personal experience but I bet chasing '10's' gets mighty costly with only occasional results.

It's very time consuming and expensive. Fortunately I'm in a great financial situation. I'll agree there performance isn't always the best, but when it is? Or when you end up having some chemistry (I'm fluent in Spanish) it's fucking awesome.
