Hi,

Someone mentioned Testosterone is bought OTC at any pharmacy. How do you buy it? Is it in an injection form?

As for the overall price, the CPI in Colombia approximately increased by 40% (95 in 2008 to 138 last quarter) in the last ten years. As for the economy per person, GDP per capita (in terms of Purchase Power Parity, not the unstable market exchange rate for USD) increased by 30 percent in the same period. So, rich businessmen got richer and poor workers / consumers became poorer in terms of real income independent of inflation.

As for the casas in Centro, the price was about 30 k ten years ago while it is 40 k now. It is 33 percent increase, slightly lower than the CPI increase.

For those with income in terms of the USD, however, the appreciation of USD outweighed the modest inflation in Colombia in the last two years. But we don't know how long the current exchange rate will continue.

The tricky part is that when the USD depreciates, the price in Colombia does not go down in response, though it usually goes up in response to the apprecItion of the dollar.

Fusion is gone. I don't know if Lindas Chicas is still in business. I thought it close severaal years ago.

This is the only Map you will need.

Yes, prices have remained pretty stable. I first went to Medellin over 11 years ago and stayed at the Mansion the first time. The "standard rate" at the Mansion was 150 mil. More recently some of the chicas have tried to push it to 200 mil, but for those who read or have any sense, you can still get most of them for 150 (which is rather generous, given you can pay much less outside of the Mansion for the same or better quality). That said, the cost to the gringo is actually down. When I first started going to Colombia, the peso was about 2300 to the dollar. During the time I was married to a rolla, the exchange rate went as low at about 1750 or so. And then last year it was as high as 3300 or more, if I remember right. So that same 150 mil costs you anywhere from $45 to $85 depending on when you visited during this time period.

Out of curiosity, just went back 10 years in reports, and it seems the chica prices in Colombian pesos has basically been flat. I understand the dollar has fluctuated in value, but chica prices seem to have remained flat. Still I guess the 20 mil por media days are numbered.

Can't imagine what it was like 10+ years ago, was there even a metro back then?

It's been 10.5 years since I lived there, and yes. The cable part that goes up into the hills and the barrio had recently opened. The rest of the system was about ten years old then. So I think maybe 1996 or thereabouts, was when it opened. Somebody else can google that one, but it's been around for a while. Buenos Aires had the first subway system in South America, I do believe.

It's always been more than enough. The holy grail of most prepagos is 100 USD. For a time this was about 150 k to 200 k but that's changed to being closer to 300 k. This goes for Colombians abroad in places like Panama City. It is rare to see them turn down 100 USD. Most will still go for 150 k to 200 k. I think the reason is it is still a lot of money for an hours work along with the fact that life is fucking poor in Colombia for most people. I've met prepagos who have built an entire life out of hooking; they do it both in and out of Colombia for a good stretch of time and save up well.

Local prices for locals still start around 30 k to 60 k depending on where you are. I guarantee you, you could find for less but that's cheap enough I think, hahaha.

If you compare this to Brazilian hookers its not too far off their price point but they have considerably higher priced hookers in much more expensive and nicer places (some of the hooker night clubs in Sao Paolo can easily cost you 200-300 USD with food + drinks + hooker). Those kinds of prices haven't been seen in Colombia unless you're a sucker who just wants to flash more money and pay more. And that's fine if you are.

There are places like Club Gusto in Parque Lleras where hookers will try to get 200 USD for short time. I've seen visitors there pay it without blinking an eye.

However, there's a difference between not blending in and standing out. Not much hope of ever blending in, but I also don't attract negative attention. I'm quiet, I stare less than the typical Colombian man, and I give a polite "Buenas" if someone greets or smiles at me in passing. I also save my cargo shorts for Ciclovia.

It's true that we get made as foreigners no matter what, up close, but from a distance not so much if you dress correctly. And it also comes down to what sort of foreigner they make you as. Are you are clueless tourist or a gringo slumming it living down there on a budget? Is much better to be thought of as the latter, so people that come here advising guys to walk the streets wearing whatever they want give bad advice.

I also read the last 500 pages of the MDE thread on this site, then read back a further 500 pages before my 2nd trip

That's super RTFF! Clap clap clap! Amazing

That took me back about 6 years which I figured was enough + about a week looking at Streetview to avoid bad looking areas

But then you missed the best... <grin>
(ooopppss.... <blushing> ).

If you want mature, try around Parque Botero and Parque Bolivar. Also, the pedestrian walk by Parque Botero and the red light strip one block below Parque Botero. Most of them, unfortunately, are hideous. However, there is the rare diamond in the rough to be found.

Mostly younger ones around Botero / VeraCruz, the older 25-40 ish are over in the raudal block. Didn't see any 50+ though.

Any choices for mature escorts in Medellin, like 50+.

I think you should be asking Vatore007..

Why ask me?

[Dickhead]

Please tell us some kinky shit we should seek out which would be on par with Thailand and Germany.

I saw so much weird shit in Thailand, it left me blind for several weeks. In Germany, you may wish to try the 'plate glass lunch.' I'm sure not going to.
