Medellin Reports

[CaptainMr]

Does the flower festival affect the scene? Do more girls come to town or does it drive the prices up? Seems like a cool event if it happens this year so I'm looking forward to it.

I was walking down 43 A yesterday at 7 pm and had two young dudes walking the opposite direction suddenly pull out a gun, put it to my face, and rob me of my iphone, wallet, and headphones. I just kept my head down and handed everything over and they took off.

The police came to my airbnb and were very ashamed because when looking at the map. It was right next to the poblano police station. Maybe 200 meters from Parque poblano. Cops said they've never seen a time where robbers were so brazen.

Keep your head on a swivel! Or I guess don't walk alone at night. Obvio.

P.S. - anyone know where I can buy a cheap Iphone?

Sign of the times and your to be applauded for posting about this as a similar incident where a gun was drawn happened to me as well in Poblado.

You can never let your guard down no matter where you are and your post serves again as a reminder.

Hopefully the value of your losses is minor, and I wouldn't bother replacing your I phone in Colombia if your going home anytime soon.

Again, your to be applauded for posting about what happened to you, we cannot be reminded enough of how dangerous it can be in Medellin.

Found this while cleaning. Abydos was once my favorite casa in all of Medellin. I sessioned some of the best girls in all my mongering life there back in the day when Colombia had almost the hottest hookers in the mongering world (actually probably the hottest). Then the casa started to decline steadily from maybe 10/11 years ago until they closed completely a few years ago. In my last visit the lineup was small and so pathetic that I took no one and the mamasan attempted to charge me a 10 mil COP viewing fee. Me of all persons who patronized them so often for so long. So sad.

Go straight down Calle 10 towards the metro station. The Metro station will be to your left Monterrey mall will be to your right. There are probably 20 stores selling phones. Shop around to get the best price.

P.S. It's Poblado, not Poblano.

Your guess is good as mine but probably so.

Yeah, it depends on the number of Covid cases and demonstrations. If the demonstrations keep up and there is pressure to bend on Covid, the government might let up. But the best measure is the number of cases, and that has not gone down. Every day, Colombia is still at 17,000 cases give or take, and unless there is political pressure, my guess, and it is just a guess, is the government does not let up.

I also do not think the number of cases goes down anytime soon. Lockdowns do not work (and in fact are harmful. Even the NYT had a blurb today on how rare transmission is outside) and the Brazil variant is in Colombia, and it does not seem to be letting up in Brazil. In fact, the Brazil variant hits young people.

On top of that, Colombia is doing a shitty job with vaccinations. The vaccines are way more prevalent now (states in the USA are turning them down now), so maybe, maybe Colombia will start to get more, but that is the one ray of hope in a bleak picture IMO.

Yeah, I'm definitely going to splurge this weekend and do some fine dining, drinking, snorting, and fucking! I haven't gotten my ass out of Bello in a couple weeks, so it's time to hit up Poblado or Laureles for a change. I have almost forgotten what gringo pricing and hangout spots look like haha.

Well it's been five weekends now that the curfew has been from either Thursday or Friday night until either Monday or Tuesday morning, so this is huge in that during this next weekend you won't be locked in, and with a 10 PM curfew, this will open many many places up.

Best for those in town to enjoy this coming weekend as my bet is it's going to be very lively and festive, yet they will be re-assessing things, and the following weekend could be shut down again and unfortunately nobody knows.

Does this mean that they are going to ease restrictions / curfews in June and July?

This is also why there are strict lockdowns right now.

Yes you need a negative PCR test within 72 hours of your flight. Bring the result to check in desk with check mig completed.

It's 96 hours, not 72.

[Surfer500]

Curfew from 5/10-5/17 is 10 pm to 5 am. We get 2 extra hours! Yeah haha. Pico and cedula is odd and even according to last digit of ID and date. I'm so used to these curfew / pico-cedula laws, I wouldn't know what to do with myself once they all get lifted.

It's 96 hours prior to your flight. I flew to Colombia last week and these are the facts.

It is not whether you have taken many trips here, been here a long time, or post every day. It is more about telling the truth and giving correct information. Months ago you said someone showed you how to make all this money on the internet or home business or something. Then you rented a condo for 6 months or a year and furnished it. Then you were back in the states working making all this money. So many stories and most are complete BS.

The first thing is he already knows how to make money. I think what he said was figuring out how to do the same remotely.

The second thing is that it is easy for some people to make a lot more money than usual right now, if you are one of those people, you need to be at the right place to take advantage of it, that is in US.

Lets talk about correct information. March 15, 2020- Nov 15,2020 I was in Medellin. I ran my business from Medellin and did record numbers, both in American Money and Colombian chicas. I always wondered why my American colleagues would not answer not one question about what was going on in America related to Covid.

Let's stop right there, not once have you heard me mention anything about covid, or about politics, especially in the format of finance. I am by all means a democrat, but I have never became richer until a replublican was in office. From the day the quarantine hit, I have made money like you wouldn't believe, which you small pecker, big words, older European looking, slick verb using, hateful small money bastards often mention. I for one work in an area that is directly related to Covid and there are things that have happened in America that allow me to profit from by being present here in the US that I could not do from Colombia, but my European looking colleagues would have never told me this while I was in Colombia. So just my presence and background allows me to make numbers off of every injection provided by facilities that I am assigned to so if you really want to know why I am not back in Colombia, now you do.

I am in a position in which many companies cannot function without my presence and this is all result of the great republicans who were in office and making sure their friends were being paid to administer this vaccine. Imagine that I wrote a contract for clinical offices and companies who administer these vaccines to pay me a $1.00 for every damn injection that is administered at the clinical site, why in the world would I want to remain in Colombia at this current time?

If no one has told you, I am happy as hell to be back in America at this current time, if for nothing more than to harvest this free money for making the right choices back in my younger life. These choices allowed me to obtain certifications that ensure that I get paid.

So, I am still not 50, I am still not broke, I met you in Park Botero, you saw me, I saw you, you know very well that I am well educated, self sufficient, requested nothing from you, made no judgment of you. But you have no problem making statements as though you are some young wise well put together European man of royal ancestry. You are older, geriatric, fragile, and outspoken, but wealthy, humble, easy going, you are not, so, if you and you older friends regard me as a liar, I wish your petty assumptions well.

I have never had a problem choosing money over pussy, and will continue to do so until I feel I have enough money to not need money, and where I am from, we all say, a man can never have enough money. Pollo Negro is out!
