Medellin Reports

[DzikaBomba]

I agree the violence is bad in Colombia, and it always has been, but it goes with the territory.

Thailand has opened back up, and will see how it goes in the next few months.

Hopefully well, so all the newcomer SEA guys who have shown up in Medellin can leave and don't come back because I consider a lot of them, and other newbies in the last six months, not you, to have kinda spoiled Centro.

Nothing personal against the SEA guys, as I like SEA as well, but I just feel as though my turf has been shit on over the last six months. And I know there are others as well.

Colombia is becoming more and more an interesting Country to travel to and will continue to do so, even when SEA opens back up.

People want to See New Things and Colombia is still a bit New and exotic so newbies will continue to come here also.

You Can not stop it or change it, its the Way it is.

I would come here also without SEA closing. The SEA closure made it only faster.

I will also travel to other countries and spoil These markets also LOL. No matter what happens in SEA.

And especially Thailand gets bored for many because its not what its used to be and people will Look out for New mongering Destinations.

You may need to change your name here on the ISG as well. Lol. 😅

I've always wondered about that. LOL.

I have done a lot of research finding guest friendly accommodations for an over two month stay in Medellin. I wanted to get away from San Peters or anything too close to there because of the noise and I wanted to be able to host three girls should things work out. I also wanted to stay in both El Poblado and Laureles. Here are some of my findings, some of which will have to be verified once I am there at the very end of December.
.

Cage Monkey, thanks muchly for taking the time to consolidate and share experiences and findings from your search for Girl Friendly accommodations. As a regular peruser of the ISG Medellin thread, I enjoy reading BM posts on their El Centro dalliances and contretemps and Osteoknot's stream-of-conscious riffs on his Medillin escapades. That said, I log onto ISG primarily to glean information of every-day, practical use in my pursuit of Paisa pussy and one's overall enjoyment of life in the Ciudad de Eterna Primavera. (A shout out to other recent posters for adding Casa Cuba to my casa browsing list.).

One follow-up question. How to do the prices for the apartment complexes that you list compare with those of San Peter's for its larger, upper floor, better noise-insulated apartments? (If not mistaken, about $1,000 per month.).

I believe he was generalizing so then he was referring to both male and female, in that case he was correct in referring to them as sacalerOs.

Except that his post specifically mentioned girls several times and never said anything about males.

[JustTK]

Papasan is the male version.

Popadom would be cuter.

[Surfer500]

Well, if they're dudes they would be called sacaleros. I'm hoping you prefer sacaler as. Sorry. You keep posting about sacaleros but I don't think you are queer.

Okay I get the humour in this. Yep, I went to EAFIT as well like Jbee2, yet I can't get things right either.

And good to know you don't think I'm a queer. I feel relieved about this. LOL.

All due respect, but seems like all your posts are about using 100% correct Spanish.

My guess is your a native Spanish speaker, where as most of the board members here are not.

Having Spanish speaking skills in Colombia is huge, yet this board is centered around finding and fucking women, and to that end, perfect Spanish is not necessary.

So with that being said, perhaps you can post something about your experiences in Colombia as far as finding and fucking women.

And don't get me wrong, everyone on this board, except the native Spanish speakers should welcome input on proper Spanish saying "dichos" in the context of what this board is about, versus Spanish textbook instruction having nothing to do with what this board is about.

I would really like to go to this place as I'm getting a bit tired of centro.

But I can't find it.

I think I'm too stupid to read the Address right.

Can please someone help with a link, So that I can find it?

Pescadería Doris Bill, centro.

That appears to be the place. It will at least get you to the parking garage.

I am comparing street area to street area of Pattaya, Thailand, Angeles City, Philippines. Not really fair in that the other two countries street girl area is mostly foreigners with few locals versus Colombia which is almost all locals. Now this does not happen all the time but it feels like it when I compare it to my visits to the Thailand or Philippines. Violence. It is like never ending here.

Colombia is cheap all around. But the food sucks. Everything is so far away from each other. The other two countries the street girls, strip bars, discos, good restaurants, hotels, and mall are all walking distance to each other. Here everything is so far away from each other that a taxi is required.

Also, tired of everyone trying to rip me off. This time International Smiles. My quote was $2900 three months ago. It just jumped to $10,500 with a discount that came to $8100 because I have a special situation which is true but not that unique of a problem. Like they could not have contacted me several months ago as soon as they knew? Nope. It will take a month to do the work and they know I leave in a month. They put me in a time crunch thinking I will cave. No, especially when I get pissed off. I can return in February and have someone else do the work or get it done in another country. They do not like giving out receipts or giving estimates by email or written on paper. Very professional and want to send by Whatsapp! Tired of feeling financially raped.

So when Asia opens up I will be gone. I think I will visit Colombia for 6 months every two years. This is a place for me to visit but not retire. Very little peace of mind here. Can not wait until I can return to Asia and try some new countries there.

A new hotel with 2 bars and 20 rooms is opening in late Nov in Poblado, large 16 person outdoor Jacuzzi can be rented for parties as well as rooms by the hour, I was told the the bars will have a large selection of independent working girls, something to look out for in the coming weeks, located between calle 10 and calle 10 a 1 block down from avenida Poblado.

Last night at 8:00 pm two guys get into a fight at the corner of the Botero church. Police grab one guy but not the other who of course magically gets away. The guy they capture it seems was stabbed or beat in the head. Not much blood but he soon lays down, loses consciousness, carried to the police truck, and taken to the hospital.

Last Sunday at 1:00 in the afternoon on the corner diagonal from the back of the museum where the bars start. There is a man and woman in their late 50's or early 60's drunk fighting. They wrestle to the ground. She is trying to kick him in the face. At first it was funny because the whole thing is like watching a replay MMA fight in slow motion. He gets away and backs up 3 meters and pulls a knife. Then another guy walks him across the street and he leaves. Unreal!

Same day a street girl standing in front of one of the statues near the corner of the statue. Her loser boyfriend is on the side of the statue who yanks her hair where her head hit or nearly hit the statue.

Later that same day another street girl and loser boyfriend are fighting and she bites his chest to get away.

Two weeks ago two girls are fighting. I have seen enough hair pulling on other girlie fights so ignore it. Minute later I look and the girl on the bottom is bleeding. The top girl was punching, not pulling hair, and gave her a bloody nose. Police come but let the both girls go 3 minutes later.

Even when these people talk they get in each others faces pointing fingers and waving their arms around. Puts me in attack mode when they are doing this next to me. Not use to it and do not like it. It is not relaxing to be around. God knows what all happens the hours between 9 pm to 2 am when they are all nice and drunk. Oops reminds me of a time last year I was out at only 8:30 pm behind the church at the bars. Some guy got hit in the head with a bottle and lost a lot of blood. There was a puddle equal to the size of a basketball on the ground and plenty on his shirt. Not sure how he did not pass out.

For the new members on this board, they are called Sacaleros,

Well, if they're dudes they would be called sacaleros. I'm hoping you prefer sacaler as. Sorry. You keep posting about sacaleros but I don't think you are queer.

YMMV but Centro was a bust this October overall. Some of my observations.

1. It feels more dangerous this time around, especially after dark. More weirdos who I feel are are trying to approach me, especially around the less lit areas. Probably because more foreigners attract more thieves.

El Centro is dangerous after dark. Always has, always will. It's not because you're a foreigner, its because you're there and you shouldn't be. There's a reason its empty after dark of locals, they're not stupid, they leave. Get an Uber pickup where you're at, and get out.

For the newbies: El Centro can be dangerous at any time of day. Don't take your flashy shit, don't pull your phone out looking at the map on the corner ("Hellooooo I'm LOST and I have a $1000 phone. ! and stay low key. El Centro shouldn't be a place you have any problems but you need to have a lot of common sense. If you don't (and if you think being in el Centro after dark is a good idea, I politely question your common sense), you might be better off staying away as that cheap pussy might end up costing you a lot more from silly mistakes.

Cheers, BM.
