Posts: 151Uber / Taxi Money
I get that request all the time in Medellin & San Jose. To get around these requests sometimes I will negotiate a price before hand and say that it includes taxi fees.

Posts: 151Parque Arvi
I use All Trails app on my iphone when I was hiking in Parque Arvi. I would fire it up when I got off of the Gondola / Food Court and start it there so no matter what trails I went down I could always find my way back to the Gondola. It's pricey at $30 per year but having been lost a few times in the Colorado back county it's priceless.

He might be screwing the most beautiful women in the world, 4 or 5 of them a day, spending more money than I earn in a month, but when the taxman comes knocking that's not going to matter.
If someone posts an intention to do something I consider unwise or dangerous, I don't take the time to talk to everyone who has met him before responding. Because, who he's met (or what he's like) has nothing to do with my response.
"You're wearing $10,000 watch and $20,000 in jewelry and want to walk around Manrique, drunk at 2 am?" I don't care if you have perfect teeth and fight MMA. I don't care if you're really nice and are dating Miss Colombia and her twin sister. I don't care if your net worth is over $1 billion. I'm going to tell you it's not a good idea. Being a nice guy doesn't make you bulletproof.
If anyone is planning on starting a business, particularly one that employs people in another country, it's in their best interest to consult with someone with a knowledge of the local laws. Doesn't matter how great of a party they throw, or whether they can dance.

Posts: 572 days in MDE
I had not been back to MDE in about 6 years. Stayed in Poblado and took metro down to El Centro. Then the heavens opened and the rain fell in buckets. The Gods were angry, or so I surmised with all the thunder. I have never been in such a violent storm. One guy told me it was because of the altitude. We were closer to the clouds. In any event, I was dodging the rain just like all the other people. Girls included. Hanging out drinking beer under an awning, waiting for it to let up. In the meantime, it got dark. Got into a conversation with a pair of Paisas who told me that their business was selling pot, but that they'd offer me a "Trio" if I wanted. The price was eventually decided to be 150 K. Not wanting to repeat the mistake of yesterday in BOG, I asked all the relevant questions. Yes, they had no problem kissing. No, it didn't matter if it was a girl on girl kiss, they were used to it. We were in the lobby of a hotel around the corner when I pulled them aside. What about BBBJ? No. Never. Funny, they had no problem doing lez sh*t but BJ without rubber? That crossed a line. So I said no thanks. Across the street was Brillidh. That is a name, by the way. It's how she spells Brigid. Great GFE. Open to all kinds of kissing, as long as I provided her a beer so she could wash the taste of nicotine out of her mouth. She smoked a lot. Very flexible young lady with digital skills. Price was 30 k + 20 k for no rubber. She paid for the room. Lovely girl who lifted my spirits. Rain came on again as I left. Same intensity. I sat and had a beer, to decompress. Then metroed back to Poblado. Two observations: I never felt unsafe walking around El Centro at night. I was only in the Plaza Botero area, chasing skirts, but no one bothered me. I didn't see any other gringos out. Just locals. Second, the rain was a nuisance but it sort of bonded us all together. It was ridiculous to be out in the torrential downpour and as I chatted with vendors and others standing under the Metro or in doorways, we saw the comedy of it all. So, maybe if it had not been rainy and there were more people out and about, maybe it would have been different. But I enjoyed it.
Day 2 in MDE: Visited El Centro -- Calle 11 -- in the afternoon this time. No rain yet, which made me happy. Smell of Maryjane powerful all over the region. I retraced my steps from the day before and found a whole new flock of talent standing around. One QT looked just right and smiled in a way that warmed my heart. I made sure to discuss terms first. She wanted 40 K but would not perform oral without condom, so I had to excuse myself. Not far away was another QT of questionable age. After a conversation and a closer inspection, I saw she was legal and would meet my demands. She warmed up considerably after we got to the hotel room. Funny and joking. Loved how her body looked and posed in the mirror. She told me to take pictures of her (but not naked) and then we got down to business. Total GFE. She wanted to get off as badly as I did. Demanded I DATY and she reciprocated. No clock watching and she didn't ask for money until it was over. The original price was 30 K but with the "extras" I asked for it came to 80 k + tip. She was sweet and told me that next time I'd receive a discount, since we were now friends. Rain on the way out of the hotel. I stopped and drank a beer to wait it out. I went back to the house, rested, then the sky opened again. Crazy rain. Walked to Parque Lleras. Not much activity due to rain. I didn't approach the three or four girls who gave me the come hither look. If it had been dry out I might have stood and chatted, but I wasn't in the mood to get friendly in the rain. Wound up at a great pub called Patrick's Pub and met some cool folks. The Lleras area seemed dead, but it was a Monday and a holiday on top of that, so maybe that was it. Or the rain. I could see really enjoying this spot if I had more time. Back to the house and tomorrow off to CTG. More in that section.

He also has the means to do whatever he wants, go wherever he wants, his VIP parties are legendary and he has the street smarts to make a go at whatever he does yet not pretentious, a cool guy and we share some gringo and Colombian friends in common and never have heard a single snide remark about him.
You should see some of his chicas, top 10 that are completely out of my price point. What he can and does at times spend on his chicas in one night is my play budget for a week.
To each his own, much love and respect to all!
The Tall Man.

Posts: 1643Heads up on an old chica trick
Some of you newbies may not have heard this one. Obvio, your novia, amiga, chica, puta are always on their cell phones. As Secret told me one time, "My cell phone and I are one. Without my cell phone I would die. " Just be careful what you say in front of her when she is staring at her phone. She could be listening to you on her translator.
Ostee Out.

Just something to consider, and your not the first guy on this board that has proposed something like this. I believe Jb2 illuminated many of the obstacles you may encounter in your quest.
Personally I wouldn't think of doing anything like your proposing. Up until the Pandemic many locals were starting up tour companies and it will be very difficult for a foreigner to compete with them.
Regardless, good luck on your venture.

If you weren't interested in any of the input, there wasn't any reason to ask for it.

Posts: 3225Sure, the potential in Colombia is unreal. I was looking at toll roads and asked my gal why it takes 8 hours to drive from BOG to MDE, and she said corruption. I know there are mountains but we have built roads through the Rockies here.
Then there is the beauty. There is so much in Colombia but if you are not close to a city, it is damned hard to reach. I drove to Doradal from Medellin. It took 3 and a half hours and is like 100 miles.
Thing is they have a great river park near there. I cannot imagine how busy they would be if it were an hour or hour and half hour drive from Medellin versus 3 and a half to get there. So much of the country is undiscovered because of this.
Then there is the food. You have the source of great ingredients and the cuisine is well, not good. Peru has turned their access to freshness into a foodie kingdom. So there is a need for great chefs.
And I do think you are onto something because my friend quizzed me before I got there, and I helped him feel way more comfortable. I even got him to get Global Entry even though he has not gone through the entire process yet. I got through USA customs in a minute while it took him 45. There are so many gimmicks like that you pick up along the way. For him, though, he was shocked at how smooth the flight was.
Also, if you do meet someone like I did, going on a 2 hour flight to Cancun or Mexico City is something very intriguing to American men like him (and me) frustrated with the sex prison. You can get a better looking, better performing Colombian for a weekend (or longer) for what you would pay an American hooker for an hour.
And yeah, the medical tourism is huge. The biggest thing is just asking around and knowing who is good and how much they cost.
And lastly, you have the women. The Feds are making whoring in the USA more and more difficult every year, and I have noticed that if you want to do drugs and fuck, there is one country better than any other. Again, people are going to want guides though.
When I have asked people why Colombia is as poor as it is, time and again though, I hear the same reason, corruption. I just wonder if the government will let you make any real money there.
