Medellin Reports

[Psychman]

your funny dude. I'm actually a grad student going to Colombia for Spring Break to scope out cities to help decide which one to move to when I graduate.

Its an ambitious itinerary with my timeframe but I think I can make it work. As long as I get one day and 2 nights in each city thats all I need.

Sorry you were the recipient of some snarkyness without good cuase. It seems to be a hobby of some posters. I was in your shoes 20 years in Central America, and used working girls as back ups for when the club scene did not work out, just as you are planing. Now, I'm too lazy and 20 year old chicas are way too much work and my rate of sucess is far to low- but you get go get them.

I would say that perhaps cutting out on your longest leg would make the trip far more enjoyable. I personally like to sink into a spot for a bit longer, especially when I am working for the freebies.

One options also is getting a cheap flight from Bogata to one of the Costal towns. Really not too expensive if you buy a one way flight in country.

Has anyone used the online websites to find prepagos? How do they compare with the chicas at the casas. I am going to give masajistas paisas a try.

Sounds like something that would go big in Peru or one of the cultures / countries that (legally) comsume (crew) the coca leaves.

A couple years ago I also read the Maxim article about this elixir but in my travels to Medellin and Cartagena I have never seen or heard tell of it. I believe the Maxim author bought it in Cali. It is as far as I know not approved nor legal to buy it in Colombia. If anyone knows different please weigh in. (BTW. Coca sek is an energy drink made with coca leaves that according to the Maxim magazine writer puts Red bull to shame!)

So, you're going just to get an overview. Sounds like an interesting but not the usual Yankee trip to Colombia. Please consider writing a report about your trip. Besides, nothing is written in stone. If you find a city that you don't want to leave, then don't. I'm curious. What drew you to Colombia. I take it your're not the retired type, but just starting on your professional career.

Only good energy!

I love everything South American. The women, the music, the dance, the vibe. I've been to Brazil last yr soo the country with the next hottest women is Colombia imo.

Def not the retired type. Like I said I'm 24 and have a passion for travel with a addicting taste for hot exotic women! American women do nothing for me anymore. After I get my second degree in 2 years I'm leaving the USA

I'm not going to Colombia to bang hookers. But I like to have a plan B if I find myself empty handed at the end of the night. I loved Rio. After going out to the clubs, I would go to Balcony Bar and in one week had 3 girls go back to my apartment for free and even cooked for me the nxt day! I'm hoping to have the same results in Colombia!

Ill throw down trip report upon my return.

I think this is just a broke ass gringo trying to get by coming to Colombia with not a centavo in his pocket. His post does not even make sense. Look at the destinations he is going to, and the time frame he is going to be in Colombia.

Has anyone tried Coca Sek? I was reading about this drink made with coca leaves. Whats it like? Can you buy it anywhere in Colombia?

This would have made for a truer story but "through the openings between the seats." as you claim, in the back rows does not allow for much of a gap to converse through a seat.

You live with that story, not really important, not that interesting. Would not be that big of a deal except you are insulting the Colombianas I care about and you are belittling those on this board with your poor writing and exaggerated tales.

Jeeze, this guy has never spoken to anyone on a plane one seat in front of him! What a loner!

I'm done with you people. Jajaja

[Mr Gogo]

That is exactly my point! I am sure these folks (LOL) would love a bite to eat but what they really want is to get a buzz or keep a buzz and since I can totally relate to that, I am cool with that! I sure is hell am not going to start trying to reform a guy down on his luck. No fucking way, I want the guy to be happy! He already has enough problems!

Reform the guy? Nobody said grab his hand and take him to church. But if you want the guy to be happy and if your comfortable doing it that way, its all good.

I like that. Tell them to get high not go eat.

One time when I lived in a rough area I walked out of my house and a guy asked me for money to go eat. At that time we had just finished a real good dinner and had a lot of good leftovers. I tell the guy wait a minute and I will help you out. I go in my house and make a great sandwich with crisp Italian bread and I then go outside and hand it to him. He looked like I had just given him a sack of monkeys.

[You Can]

Hey Bud, this runner up guy is a total piece of crap! Hopefully he will travel to an area with a beautiful beach and ocean and walk down to the ocean and just keep walking till its over his head and put himself out of his misery. He is a total dickhead!

Why do you and so many mongers feel the need to prove that they are not really mongers or have graduated to suddenly being real men who don't pay for sex anymore?

Never in his life has Donald Trump bragged about having money.

Brad Pitt never had to tell his friends "I'm a ladies' man with game, chicks dig me"

Lady Diana never said "I have class" or "I am affluent"

Einstein never told anyone,"I'm a smart feller"

These people don't have to say it, in fact they don't even think about. They just ARE.

People who DO brag about how great they are really aren't. Because greatness, class, being a real man etc, is understood, no need to brag about it to a bunch of internet strangers.

The braggart at one point in his life has come to realize just what he lacks and was not born with and thus becomes resentful and also lacks to ability to be happy with himself. The common and classic traits are bragging as a way to fill in what is missing and treating others with little or no respect, especially women as that is who he blames for his shortcomings. Our friend has already demonstrated that tenfold.

Inferiority complex? Low self esteem? A need for approval? Yes, yes, and probably yes.

Runnies, is my approval really that valuable to you? I am so flattered. I pat you on the head and hang your drawing on the fridge, whatta good boy!

Does it bother you that you had to weasel your way into the club instead of being born a great ladies man? Are you really a member or are you faking it a little?

Obviously you are leaving us as why would such a great man need to part of the monger community?

I for one could all use some education to get to your level, oh swami, can you write a book perhaps?

Hi All,

Wanted to ask any Canadian who have gone to MDE what airlines they used. I am in the process of doing the reaserch but wanted to know what others had used. I have seen AA and Air Canada that have flights but if anyone else has other recomendations please PM me. Debating about MDE or Brazil so any info on flights would help

Thanks.
