Medellin Reports

[Knowledge]

I can't make new life comparisons because I haven't been in the place in several years but providers at other Centro casas are comparable to Camila the smelly luggage burglar. The real point is you would have to explore beyond Poblado to discover any of this.

You can find better quality at New Life. Way cheaper hotel visits too.

It's official. A taxista spoke. But seriously, I don't know that crime statistics back any of this up but I do know it's helpful to be reminded guys should not let their guard down because they are surrounded by things and people that feel familiar. This is a big city people, crime can happen at any time. You have to maintain, or develop, some situational awareness to reduce the risk.

Cab driver also told me the same about Laureles. Less safe than pre pandemic.

Went sight seeing with Metro and cable cars. You can get to all major attractions quickly and cheaply. Came back to P Botero for food and girls. Its' the liveliest spot in MDE with thousands of shops and tens of thousand people milling around the blocks around Beerio Metro station.

Lots of girls were hanging out and front of the church. Policias with patrol cars were in the plaza but they did not bother the hos. I took a couple pics of policias with cars and putas next to them, looked hilarious. When I snapped the girl in black short, she protested loudly shouting. I told her I would call policia; 2 came over. I explained that I was snapping the church thinking policias would be on my side but they told me no pics. Did not know when MDE had that la win place. Meanwhile the puta was shouting and a crowd of 20 surrounded me. Policias shouted at puta to shut up.

I kept arguing but policias insisted no pics. He wanted me to go to the station and took out his cuff. Damn. I said OK, no pic, delete what you want. They went through the pics, laughing at those with putas surrounding patrol car. They deleted all girls pics, but left a few with the church. I took off.

Later they arrested and put her in the back seat. Her friends followed and talked to her thorough the window. Looked like they told her to leave the front of the church and she acted up. After that no girls would stand at the front door of the church.

There were lots of hot young spinners around the church, on streets around P Botero, beat P Lleras by a very wide margin. One spinner with frizzy blonde hair looked so sweet but told me to wait while she went into her hotel. I quickly picked another young slim spinner among several, 30 K cops ($7. 50) for her and 7 cops for a pretty nice, clean, bright room. I was tired with all the walking but her CBJ was pretty good, got a quick hard on. She was very pleasant, fun and sexy, moaning and gasping for breath through the long session, said "Muy rico".

She gave me her tel but no pic. There are so many hot spinners around P Botero even in day time, never short of selection, far better than the heavy tattooed hoes at P Lleras.

The picture thing in that area may be related to the zoning of it as a "zona de tolerencia". When we went on a bus tour by that area (behind the museum) we were told the same thing. Don't take pictures here out of respect for the sex workers. But they did not say it was a law.

There have been a lot of guys doing picture tours and putting it on Youtube and places like that, and I would not be surprised it the government wanted to quash some of that. They do not want to be seen as a sex tourism destination.

Here's Camilla's face.

I would have given her a lot more if she had no played hard ball all the time, also tried to get into my luggage. And fishy pussies are not for me.

One warning though about brokerage debit cards. Unlike credit cards, you and not the institution are on the hook for theft or fraud.

So I stuck my card in an ATM / cash machine / cajero in Nicaragua and then went immediately to Honduras. Someone in Nicaragua withdrew several thousand dollars over the weekend, even more than the balance in the account (because I had margin privileges). Schwab made good on the money after a brief investigation and sent me a new card to the small town in Honduras where I was staying, overnighting it. Now I don't know about a kidnapping type of situation but for unauthorized withdrawals, unless you gave someone your password, you're not liable as long as you report it promptly. They can hold you liable for the first $50 but typically they don't. It's $500 if you don't notify within two business days (but I did).

I live in Los Angeles and I have been enjoying the scene in Tijuana for over 30 years. Lot's of great options but you really never have to leave Hong Kong. The owners really get it. During the lockdown from Covid they almost doubled the size of the club by expanding into the adjacent properties. On a typical weekend night, there must be at least 150 girls. Also, I think because of the overall hit to the Mexican economy, there have never been more beautiful girls than right now. That said I'm ready for some new adventures and I am landing in Medellin the 3rd week of January. Would appreciate anyone that already knows the ropes there and will be there during that time to contact me.

Have fun HK sucks now imo. It peaked in 2012-2016. Barely any hot girls in there now compared to before. I have high standards though. Medellin and Bogota is levels above Tijuana imo in terms of easily finding hot girls with good attitudes.

I've read and heard Laureles isn't as safe as it was pre-pandemic. I like the neighborhood because good restaurants and markets are within walking distance (without the hills of El Poblado). I'm typically not afraid anywhere I want to go in Colombia, but I know Bogota far better than Medellin. Any thoughts on the notion that Laureles is more dangerous now? Thanks.

I doubt she could pass a drug test.

Thanks sounds like the place is heating up with hot new girls, also what's the cleanest st hotel around their with hot water would be great and what should that room cost! Thanks.

Pluses and Minuses of Brokerage Firm DEBIT Cards.

- Create a Second Account with a Separate, Unlinked Debit Card.

A number of brokerage firms offer debit cards with no foreign ATM fees charged to your account. In comparison, my bank does charge a fee for international withdrawal. At $2 - $5 per withdrawal, that's a big savings.

One warning though about brokerage debit cards. Unlike credit cards, you and not the institution are on the hook for theft or fraud. So I would recommend a second brokerage account with just enough cash for your needs while abroad. (You can always keep the account balance low and transfer more money to the account.) By creating this second account, if you debit card is stolen, or hopefully it is not the case that you are held up at an ATM and forced to keep making withdrawals, the thieves do not have access to your entire brokerage account assets.

The last step in this process is requesting a separate, unlinked debit card that only can withdraw from the second account. If the debit card is linked to both accounts, this defeats the purpose of creating a second account.

This is funny. Charles Schwab is like a religion on this website. I won't respond to what reads like a product promotion brochure other than to say I stand by my post. My advice was to shop around. Anyone who doesn't want to do that can base their personal finance decisions on what is posted on a punter web site, good luck with that.

If you can't get schwab get starling, but schwab is better as they refund ATM fees. Zero margin and zero fees is as good as it gets (and it gets far worse). Srsly, if you know any better deals please let us all know, I'll apply immediately, I hate paying bank or any other fees.
