Medellin Reports

[Orgasmico]

Looks like the earliest date for tourism is November. We'll see how that goes.

Does anyone have their visa? I'm wondering if living there is worth the tax hit. Thanks!

I have a Migrant Visa. You need to see an accountant about your particular situation if you are a tax resident.

Just stumbled across this.

Sounds good, I will give SA a try. Thanks.

You'll want this for your next trip to Medellin. Set your location to Medellin. I have been killing it with SA, this trip, and I never used it on my prior trips, aside from Nov / Dec. I believe I have Premium, and there is a higher level. I don't remember why I have Premium, compared to a standard account. There must be some added features that are worth the payment. Anyway, I have a Search parameter set up to filter my types. I also enjoy using the Search function set to Newest, to try to find some new hotties that might be dipping their toes into this new world, at the ripe age of 18-19. Maybe get them before they have 75 k Instagram followers and a new price point.

I've never used it in the US, so I can't comment on that. I have a fairly private photo, and then normal photos which you can approve access to.

It makes very little sense to ban US citizens who are living in Canada from boarding the plane, on the other hand, if the intent is to ban people who are living in the US, then what prevents a Canadian, who has been living in the US for the entire duration of covid, to go in.

I think banning flights from the US and require a covid test before boarding the plane make the most sense. Not all Americans who are sick want to fly to Canada so they can go to Costa Rica or Medellin to infect the people there.

All the statements prior to Friday made by officials in Costa Rica (as reported in the various news outlets) were about citizens from certain countries being allowed in. I'm assuming that would be citizens and legal residents. Then, when the announcement was made it talked about flights. There are no direct flights from Canada at the moment so this is meaningless in that sense (as far as Canada or Canadians).

All in all I think the intent is about allowing or not allowing people from various countries come in. Whether I like it or not. But I agree, there needs to be a much clearer statement from the CR authorities.

The answer to your question depends on your income, technically anyone with a visa who is in Colombia more than six months a year is considered a "tax resident" and must file with DIAN which is Colombia's IRS. Whether you will owe taxes seems to change from time to time and they have a weird formula based on your personal wealth and what is considered in the calculation. I believe retirement accounts such as 401 K's, pensions, etc are not used in the equation. At the end of the day, if you have a good accountant you will pay the difference between what you would of paid in Colombia versus what you actually paid in the USA. So for guys living on a pension with most of their monies in retirement accounts they might not be paying much of anything. Again, you need a good Colombian accountant, and the filing is a joke in that only a one page form is submitted with no back-up and although DIAN and the USA have what I believe is a tax treaty, DIAN is limited in how much information they can actually verify when a foreigner files a tax return in Colombia. And they are very happy when a foreigner pays taxes to them!

Every persons situation is different, and for a person contemplating living in Medellin, they should get with an accountant. Also, DIAN is becoming more and more sophisticated, and there are a lot of foreigners living in Medellin who do not file a tax return when required to, and may have issues in the future renewing their visas.

Perhaps some of the other half dozen members who live in Colombia can better explain and correct what I have said. Again you need to get with a Colombian accountant on this because everybody's situation is different.

Thanks for the emotional support! We all belong to this specific era of Medellin; its beauty is unique to our time. The only upside I can see from this quarantine is that it made me appreciate what I had in Medellin more than before.

Costa Rica just announced it would open for international travelers on 8/1 but restricted to the EU, UK, and Canada, passengers must show a negative COVID test result within 48 hours before boarding the plane. (https://www.ministeriodesalud.go.cr/...s-desde-europa) The specific language they used did not mention passports; as long as the flight is originated from Canada, they will let you in. I'm speculating Medellin will apply similar measures. I looked up the requirement for US citizen travel to Canada; it says that we can travel to Canada for essential purposes only. (https://www.canada.ca/en/immigration...xemptions.html). I remember reading one of your posts about going to Mexico for the essential purpose of seeing a "dentist," did you have to present any official documentation for the "dentist" visit?

I cross the border into and out of Canada twice each week. Except for all the other trucks, almost nobody is crossing. Yesterday was the first time I've seen more than 1 car crossing and I saw 7. Normally entering Canada is quick and painless, but the cars were taking 5 minutes and up to clear the booth.

My paperwork makes it simple for me. I'm crossing on essential business. I'm assuming you would need something official to get across. Canada is pretty laid-back, but they aren't quite as open as Mexico.

You can take a look at the first paragraph of "Entry to Hong Kong". This is how Asian countries are implementing it. If you are in a low risk country, it is easier for you to move around between countries. Passport is only significant when you are a citizen and they must allow you in so some countries wave the
test requirement.

I also live in the Bay Area, and I have been mongering there for the past 30 years. I agree with you that one can find poon at reasonable rate, if one takes the time to look for it. I had FS with a chick at O'farrell Theater, for $200, in the early 2000. She was young and eye candy.

Ofarrel use to be my favorite place when I was in my early 20's, it was 2006-7. I use to go there every Thursday for a CBJ for 200 dollars from a super tall blonde, in those small damn rooms, a FS will not be enjoyable for me. A typical FS there is fully covered and you are out of there in less than 40 minutes. Once I discovered the FKKs in Europe, Brazil and Thailand, I never went back there again. For me, spending 200 dollars for a fully covered 30 minute FS with an eye candy who is overt 21, is no where nearly to anything I can find in Medellin.

Yes, I lived there for 5 years recently. You're quoting agency rates. Go on seeking arrangement and find independent chicks. I'm assuring you that you can get an all night situation with a college chick for $500, and probably less as you repeat.

Sounds good, I will give SA a try. Thanks.

My interpretation of all of it is that citizens of those countries can fly in on whatever flights are available, and will be allowed into the country providing they follow the rules as laid out. And that eventually there will be direct flights from those places. And that citizens of countries not allowed in will not be allowed to board those planes, whether they originate in the US, or wherever (same as is currently the case).

It makes very little sense to ban US citizens who are living in Canada from boarding the plane, on the other hand, if the intent is to ban people who are living in the US, then what prevents a Canadian, who has been living in the US for the entire duration of covid, to go in.

I have been mongering in Northern California for more than 15 years. The best deal and service I can get is the following:

Hourly rate 220-250 dollars for Asians, hourly rate 350-500 dollars for caucasians, hourly rate 300-400 to Brazilian and Latina. The rates I'm quoting are for acceptable girls, all in their mid 20's to early 30's. Younger and hotter girls with reliable reviews goes up to 500-800 per hour. One night will cost 2000-5000+. If you want extra service such as bareback+, it will cost more, some will insist on using a condom for everything, the Korean girls are a bit more lenient. If I rent a penthouse apartment in San Francisco, it cost about 7-10 k per months. (My one bedroom apartment cost 4200 a month). To give you a reference point, a 3-minute lap dance in a half decent strip joint with no touching costs 25-35 dollars.

10 k a night is definitely within the right range if I want a Medellin like experience. Furthermore, I'm talking about paying for one girl only, in Medellin I rarely have one girl at a time, I do about 5-6 threesome and 2 foursomes a week, and it costs less than half of one night in San Francisco for a smoking-hot 21 year old with no rules.

Hey everyone,

Just wanted to say Hi and that I have RTFF (went back 600 pages) took me a few weeks but hate to ask annoying questions that can be found by reading. I do have a few posts on the Argentina Private forum but was looking to switching gears to Colombia. Looking forward to getting to Colombia when all international travel is permitted but realize that it might not be until 2021. Any way, just saying Hi and hope everyone is staying safe and hope I can share some experiences when I get there, I'm sure I'll have questions but this is enough for an intro post.

Lumi.
