Medellin Reports

[JjBee62]

I think you underestimate the gringo grandpa. Firstly the ladies are aware that an association with the gg is more financially rewarding. Secondly, at the risk of being labelled as altruistic and impressionable a gg can have a meaningful conversation, albeit via a translation app, and give her advice that can improve her life. These girls are not stupid, they are aware of the benefits.

There's always going to be guys who won't understand. There are benefits for both parties.

I spent yesterday playing gringo grandpa. It cost me 16 k for my taxi, plus about 4 k in coins, my contribution to a little girl's piggy bank. I got a home cooked meal, made friends with a girl's father (or stepfather, or maybe just her mom's boyfriend), who offered to take me to a strip club. Improved my friendship with her mother, who offered an invitation to a finca and to other family outings. It also taught me a lot about how and where these girls live. As a bonus I got a geography and language lesson.

While most guys are either anxiously waiting for some girl to arrive 2 hours late, or sitting around complaining there's nothing to do, some guys are learning how to coexist.

It doesn't mean I am moving beyond the P4P scene. I'm just finding things to talk about other than cuanto cuesta.

I believe the majority of them would rather hang in the barrio with their boyfriend and girlfriends, rather than gringo grandpa communicating thru google translate.

Some people play golf with their doctors, go hunting with their lawyers and take in a ball game or two with their accountants. "Hookers" are young women who have souls and emotions and a need for human interaction beyond simply laying on their backs as a guy twice their age humps them.

OK I've been to Secret Spa and walked away. The hostess on the first floor was drop-dead gorgeous (less than 5 ft and 100 lbs) but she took me to meet the girls upstairs. Nice if you like bigger & taller girls. She said she doesn't session so. I went to Energy! That is the place in Laureles that you need to go. A little awkward to find for sure but they have a big line-up (take a pencil / pen and paper) and you'll see something you like. Not cheap but very good looking girls and nice clean rooms with showers. Definitely the go-to place in Laureles.

Thanks! I'll check it out.

Got to find me some *shy* Filipinas when next I return to the Philippines.

Pinays are an outlier in SEA and be / see of their Spanish colonization more closely resemble other Spanish influenced countries like Colombia, Mexico, CR, etc. I'm Not sure about shy, I will say be / see of the strict catholic upbringing there are more pent up / hidden aggressions and more bi-polar Pinays.

Be / see of the English, I would highly recommend the Philippines as a starting point for SEA for those looking to expand outside Medellíand. Unlike medellíand, stuff is easier to find and more clustered. Hard to beat the prices in the casas in centro though and I do find the paisas having a friendlier demeanor, generally, like the Thais.

[Turgid]

I've never been to Indonesia and Cambodia. Thai girls will hang with you but (at least in my experience) they still expect you to have the baht handy for quick transfer whereas the Filipinas are a bit more *shy* about asking for pesos even though ALL women want the money for doing the deed.

I tried Secret Spa this afternoon and was sadly disappointed, So far the Blue Room is the clear winner for places near Laureles. At this point, I'd not go anywhere else around Laureles, though I've only been there once. My gut says central is the best place to go. Did a cruise through there Sunday afternoon with a friend. At the Blue room, I had a very cute and enthusiastic young girl, a nice big room, a shower before and after and even sex furniture!

And just for comparison, as there was a great review of Medellin by a guy that had never been to Thailand a week or so ago there is absolutely no comparison between the scene in SEA and MDE. Without too much effort in BKK or Pattaya, you can find whatever it is your looking for, I mean whatever! With exponentially better service at a much better price. I'm not complaining mind you, I'm happy to be living someplace where the game is legal. And there is no way I'd participate here the way I did there. And it gives me a reason to go back to SEA for a visit.

I have been to Thailand and Indonesia in addition to the Philippines and I have found that the girls in those countries like to hang out with foreigners. I understand the same goes for Cambodia and other South East Asian countries as well.

I am rather curious to know what is supposed to be fun about taking a hooker to a mall. Buy me this, buy me that. I would rather take a shit and fall backwards.

I think you will have few problems moving as a group in places like Lleras / Poblado / Provenza. You will also be OK in tourist oriented zones like Guatape etc, or in large public spaces like Botero Plaza. In grittier areas of Centro or anywhere off the beaten track, you are better breaking the group up into two to four guys to avoid attracting too much of the wrong attention. You would be generally safe but ne'er do wells would try to take advantage of anyone who lags or appears more impaired than the core group, rather like wolves do with flocks of sheep. Be safe and enjoy.

Thanks, I appreciate the help. Quick question do you have any advice on how a group of 10 in Medellin should move around in the city? Should we split into groups or just stay together?

It's not just the guys. When the women refuse to take the money, buy you a gift and go completely nuts with jealousy when they catch you with another chick, you know they can fall into the same trap.

Yes I've seen this too. I know a hooker in Cartagena who used to be super bubbly and happy. She was the happiest and nicest person I'd ever met there. Evidently, some monger broke her heart and "left" her. She turned into a miserable * Even her friends tell me she's completely changed.

It happens to the chica and the extranjero. Personally, I think it's a giant waste of time. Like that Cartagena chica was hooking the entire time she was chasing that guy. What's the point of a hooker girlfriend?

Some guys swear up and down that the Casa Blanca girls are still taking 150 k without complaint. Other guys (myself included) are having a harder and harder time getting the girls to take 150 k without demanding taxi money coming and going, regalos, propinas or just straight up 200 K+.

Either the 150 k guys are lying, handsome, built like fitness trainers, amazing lovers or regulars coming down monthly or those of us who are having trouble getting the women to stick to 150 k are ugly, smelly, fat, terrible in bed or just fell off the turnip truck newbies.

Whatever it is breakfast time at the big table is always interesting when the subject comes up.

Not necessarily lying. They are just willing to walk away.

More experienced mongers tend to develop the sense to walk away if they don't like the deal they're getting. They realize how much their money is worth in local terms and don't want to be taken for a fool. Newer mongers (or guys down for a long weekend) tend to pay up. This is a generalization but it's what I've found over many years in this hobby.

The counterintuitive point is that if you're willing to walk away, you usually won't have to. Looks, language ability, etc might or might not help a bit, but they aren't crucial for most prepagos.

She wouldn't let you buy her a Christmas gift but you took her shopping and it cost you nothing to take her shopping?

That's the dangerous thing about this hobby. You can very quickly get caught up in the fantasy of things. Caveat emptor.

It's not just the guys. When the women refuse to take the money, buy you a gift and go completely nuts with jealousy when they catch you with another chick, you know they can fall into the same trap.

I doubt it happens much with guys that do nothing but short time. But when you sleep with the same chicks night after night and they let you into their personal lives it can and does happen.

I now draw a line at meeting a chick's mother and their children. In fact just not getting involved with women with children is probably the best way to avoid those kinds of situations.

The only country I've been to where the girls absolutely LOVE being with you all day is the Philippines.

I have been to Thailand and Indonesia in addition to the Philippines and I have found that the girls in those countries like to hang out with foreigners. I understand the same goes for Cambodia and other South East Asian countries as well.
