Medellin Reports

[Lucky Nuts]

Oh come on now, how young are you guys? Since when would unshaven slow anyone down LOL I remember when all where unshaven. And back then they damn well were more likely to have some body odor hiding in that muff pie, I wouldn't go down on a girl that was dancing the night away unless she went to the shower first. Even sweat would make that unpleasant when you stick your nose it it.

About 3 years ago on the flight into MDE I talked with the guy next to me on the plane. He was going down to check on an "agricultural investment" and I told him my reason for traveling. He was surprised and happy to learn this was available in Medellin as he was recently divorced after a long marriage. I took him out to La Isla where he became wild with excitement and ended up doing a couple different chicas that night after I left. When we got back together the next day the first words out of his mouth were "WOW when did the girls start shaving their pussies like that?" I laughed so hard. We take it for granted but a guy who's been out of the game for so long doesn't even know LOL. He loved it though.

BTW, IMO it's an abuse of individual freedom when a single person's actions can harm others or does not achieve the greater good. Moving on.

Even though hospitals overall have an excellent reputation in Colombia, my friend who was diagnosed with Covid and required hospitalization here was so suspect of the care he was getting, that he boarded a commercial flight back home while still requiring supplemental oxygen.

The actions most generally discussed on this website can harm others and don't achieve the greater good.

There are two kinds of street food here. You can get soups / stews / sancocho and the second kind of fast food is fried. All of it. The bandeja paisa is an egg, some beans, a slice or two of avocado, a lot of rice, a long piece of salted and fried pork rind (chicharron) and a piece of very well done beef or pork. Most other meals start with soup and are followed with a plate of various combinations of the bandeja paisa. It gets old fast. The good news is there are many other choices outside of the barrios.

I was chatting with two Colombian teachers and they asked how I liked Colombian food and I could only say it is OK. I explained it was very bland with no use of a certain spice that sticks out into my mind. They were not happy with my assessment.

Just because empanadas are sold on every single block in Colombia does not mean it is good and definitely the would "cuisine" should not be attached to it. Hotdogs are also sold all over the place in this country it is definitely also not cuisine. It is only "food" or low level "sustenance". Seems as if all the Colombian restaurants serve beans, rice, fried plantain, and salad with some sort of meat. That is hardly special or unique tasting.

Wow is right. Not wow that he bought a scooter for a girl, wow at your response.

My personal opinion is that at some point in the future the girl will ride out of his life and live with her girlfriend in the house he's paying to build. Big deal. It's his money and he hasn't asked me to babysit. Just like none of us asked him before all the questionable choices we've all made.

He didn't ask us if he should buy the scooter. He asked about what he needs to ride it legally.

This subject just came up in June when I was talking with a friend. He might have the largest motorcycle and scooter rental business in Colombia and I believe he's been in business for 8 or 9 years.

He said he never bothers to check if his renters have a motorcycle endorsement, as long as they have a valid license, because he's never had any problems with that. The Colombian police have no idea which states require a motorcycle endorsement. As long as you have a valid license from the US you can legally drive a car or ride a moto.

You can't get a Colombian driver's license until you have a Colombian cedula de extranjero. You can't get a cedula until you have a visa valid for at least 6 months. Tourist visa is not applicable.

The only thing you might need is something authorizing you to ride her scooter..

And amazing content in and of itself.

And to that other guy. I am trying to keep up here, so be patient with me, please. Are you saying that a girl might exist in Medellin who would date a guy older than her father, just because he spends money on her? Is that what you're saying? Hmmm, I got to think about that one for awhile and get back to you. My eyes have been opened! I was sure this was the real thing. Gee, I probably shouldn't have taken out that second mortgage and sold a kidney just to come here. Hmmmmm. Oh well, live and learn.

Your first question should be whether the company allows you to install a VPN client of your choice on the machine. If it doesn't (and few companies do) your options would be (1) connect a non work PC to your Colombia Internet service. You could then set up a VPN client on the non work PC and connect your work PC to the Colombia Internet service via the non work PC that you set up as a mobile hotspot, (2) use a mobile phone with a VPN client installed as a mobile hot spot to which you connect your work PC. Of course you can also find another job or ask to work remotely.

If you manage to get any of the above done your remaining challenge would be to avoid fucking and partying so much you would be incapable of meeting your work commitments. Let us know how you make out.

The work laptop is connected to the company's network via company VPN. Are you saying there's a way to use a third party VPN to fool the company VPN? I work for one of the biggest tech companies and I assume they have controls in place to prevent that.

I answered his question. Go see a lawyer for less than 30 minutes.

You mention he might need something authorizing him to ride her scooter. Which means you do not know either. So my answer is still the most correct (lawyer). Thank you.

Getting any kind of legal advice off any chat board is not a good idea. Generic info to get you started sure but for the nitty gritty specifics you need to see a professional.

If you've got questions or want some leads on girls feel free to PM me.

And said you were "new" to the game. Honestly, I try NOT to focus on usernames and instead concentrate on content so I don't bias myself for or against other users here. BUT, JFC, I've been called a "Quick Study" before but you're fuckin' unreal. If you really were as green as you said, you have an amazing ability to process, analyze, organize, and the highest function, synthesize new information. Golf clap. Tip of the cap. Suck my dick. I hate you. Jaja. JK. Obvio. Keep up the strong work. You are a credit to this Board. Ostee Out.

Get a proxy. Problem solved. I have been working "remote" in different countries for 10+ years and have a full paid proxy subscription so all my traffic (phone included) route back through the US.

WOW!

First you buy a motorcycle and put in your girls name. That means you bought it for her. You will never get it back or any proportional value of it, except maybe the helmet as a token of remembrance.

Now reality hits you and you realize you have no rights to even drive the thing legally? Now you ask for the information you should have started out with before buying. Please brag some more about what a good deal you got on a motorcycle you do not have any rights to. You should be talking to a lawyer and not asking fellow story tellers here for advice. You said you heard stories about police taking motorcycles. Be the big spender you claim to be and see a lawyer for 30 minutes and find out the truth.

I wish I was your neighbor so I could watch as she breaks up with you and drives away on your motorcycle. I will happily be eating my popcorn.

Now please go buy yourself a condo or house and put it in her name. Then you will learn how much she really loves you (your money only).

Does anyone know for sure what I need to do to drive this moto legally in Colombia? The moto has all it's "papers" in mi novia's name, but what if I want to use it? I would take the chance drive it right now if needed, but I've heard several stories about when if the policia stop you and you don't everything in order, they take the moto away from you right then and there on the spot. Obvio, I would like to avoid that situation.

Anyone sending money to girls, buying gifts for girls, or whatever you feel like doing, go right ahead. It's your money. Unless someone on ISG is paying all your expenses, how you spend your money is none of their business. My only advice is to remember, the money you spend doesn't buy you anything. The only guarantee is that you'll be asked for money again.

Normally, I too would of opted out, yet I was horny as hell as well and didn't let it deter me, and it turned out to be a good experience.

Next thing you know you will be eating ass, jajajajaja.

Which proxy do you use, do you prefer one over another for a particular reason and why? Thank you in advance.

I'm interested too.

I do not know what your situtation is. Are you going back and forth? Do you have a motorcycle license in the USA? I follow this guy on YouTube who is / was an expat in Medellin, so he had a residency visa, who explained how he got his Motorcycle license. But he had some residency visa status. Here is the video where he says at what I do not know is if you have to have residency first -.

At 5:25 he explains the process from his point of view. He also tells the story of how his bike got stolen out from under him at gun point but thats not the point of my point you toward this video, even if it is worth hearing about

AI heard a rumor that you can go to this Academia Automovilismo on the northeast corner of Calle 9 and Carrera 43 A in Poblado and pay the right amount of money to the right person. And they pave the way to get your license. That was a couple of years ago that I heard this so it might be worth looking into but take it with a grain of salt.
