Medellin Reports

[El Mechanico]

Why can't you be responsible enough to confirm the age yourself? Since when is it security's responsibility to confirm the age of guests of people who are staying in private apartments?

Maybe he meant Re-confirming? As in, 4 eyes are better than 2. But you are correct, the ultimate responsibility falls upon us!

I just returned from Medellin. It was my first time in Medellin and I really loved the place. I will be going back soon. I may have found my home away from home.

Let me start my report by explaining that I am a 55 year old gringo and traveling with two 70 year old gringos. We have traveled the world together to some of the best mongering spots in the world. We have been to Bangkok, Chaimng mai, Pattaya, Siagon, Phenom Penn, Bogota, Mexico City, etc. We love to see the sights and get immersed in the local culture. We also love the girls.

For this trip, we had a couple of objectives. Explore the city, meet the locals, get immersed in their local culture and meet beautiful women. All were met.

We rented a 3 bedroom condo in El Poblado, not far from Park Lleras. We dealt with Barry at Poblado Rentals. Barry was great to work with. He also set us with a local guide, Jimmy Giraldo. Jimmy was awesome. He understood exactly what we wanted. He did not take us to the tourist traps, but helped us understand the Colombian culture and meet real local people.

In preparing from the trip, I spent about 6 weeks on Colombian Cupid picking out and contacting beautiful. By the time I left for my trip I had about 18 that I had culled down to. I had heard some on this forum warning about how cupid was hit and miss. My experience was great. I would contact the girls on cupid, get their whatsapp number and message them. After a few intro texts, I would ask if they would come see me in El Poblado for sex. 95% of them said Si. Then on to price, services, etc. The girls were very straight forward about everything. So no need to try and pretend when communicating with them. They would also send sexy pics when I asked. Most all the girls were willing to come for sex. I did have a couple that didn't, but strangely enough even though they wouldn't, they had friends they would recommend. So my message to you is try cupid and be straight forward about what you want and you can get good results. All of the girls were semi pro. They all had a part time job or went to school. None spoke good English, but google translate is a great tool.

We arrive at the condo the first night about 11 pm. Message on of the CC girls and she and her two friends were at our condo in about an hour. They ranged in age from 22 to 24. All were very beautiful and very sexy. We had drinks, communicated together with google translate, got comfortable and then each others bedroom. All three girls were amazing in bed. All did BBBJCIM, sex about any way you wanted. All three of these girls dark hair and that darker Colombian skin that is so beautiful. They left the condo about 2:30 am. We had them there for about 2 1/2 hours.

The next night, we brought in a different set of three chicas. 2 were blonde and one brunette. Absolutely gorgeous. The blonde I had was amazing. She had banging body with nice firm see cup tits and an ass to dies for. We had drinks, did a little powder that our guide had procured for us and then to the bedroom. She took my cloths off and I hers. I enjoyed her body so much. I dined at the why for a while, she did a great BBBJ, we explored several positions before she climbed on top for the grand finally. Absolutely amazing. I thought I was in love. Some of the best sex I had ever had. She stayed about 3 hours.

Night 3 was pretty much the same as night one and two. I will skip the details to get to night 4. This was our last night in town. I called my blond back from night two because she was that amazing. But one of my friends wanted to have her. So she agreed to that and brought two different friends with her this time. We had vino, vodka, smoke and powder. We had a great little part listening to music and getting drunk. This night I had a 19 year old little chicha that was wild as hell. Once in the bedroom, we turned on some music. She danced and did a nice strip for me. She undressed me and laid me back on the bed where she proceeded to do this little pole dance thing over my head. She settled in for a nice long session of BBBJCIM. One of the best I ever had. We got up out to the balcony naked, had a little smoke back in the bedroom where we danced baked. A lot of grinding and dancing till I was hard again. Sex for another 30-45 minutes. She was by far the best because of her sexy attitude and her banging hot body.

With all of the girls, we had agreed on $150,000 to $250,000 COP before they arrived. I know I could have gotten by cheaper, but I would rather pay a little more for excellence and that's what I got every night. We walked around centro some during the day, I didn't see anything that came close to my CC girls. I could have went o the Casas or clubs, but didn't feel the need. The condo offered me the safety of knowing the girls would be checked coming and going by the front desk. Little less of a chance of being robbed or worse.

The moral of the story is if you are and older gringo like us and don't care too much for the bar scene, CC is the way to go. At least it was for me. I fell in love with Medellin and will be back. By far the best experience I have had anywhere.

You make the airbnb apartment agent confirm in writing that female guests are allowed. Make them spell the rules out for you via email so they can't go back on their word later. There are many buildings in Laureles sans security, but I would not recommend this for newbies! Never leave your drink unattended, and always check ID and take a picture of her ID and email it to yourself. Trust me on this, never violate this rule. There are a lot of shake downs and scams now and the police are in on it. As long as you are low key and aren't bringing in barrio rats that just huffed paint into your new strata 6 rental lobby, you should be fine. Pick them wisely, the girls down here have gotten real slippery the past few years.

That is pretty funny advice given Colombians never give you a straight answer. They can't even tell you what time they are coming to meet you.


A friend and I were discussing that it is way under reported that number of visitors that are shot/stabbed/killed given Colombias drive to improve tourism

[Bdb013]

I just got back from Medellin. I set up everything with Barry at Pobaldo Rentals. He is great to work with.

Addresses. LOL.

That pretty much means the police entered and found a hooker and this guy stabbed several times. Sounds like a drug deal went bad. At least the hooker stuck around!

Not at all. This reminds me what happened me several years ago, maybe 5-8 years ago (I am sure duly reported here, but now I am too lazy to search the link).

I have been subject to robbery or robbery attempt only two times in my life in Colombia, and both times it was entirely my fault. Call it a drop of attention, or my stupidity that at times emerges from the cover of care that I exercise 99.9% of the times.

That time, I had the bad idea to accept the solicitation from a girl met at 2 am in the street of Maracaibo. We went to a small hotel at the beginning of an infamous small street at Prado (no, they do not ask for cedulas LOL, but the room costed me around 5 k). In the room, she extracted a small knife and asked me to give her all money. She even carefully inspected my shoes (that seems to be a popular place for street people to hide money), the inside of the wallet, etc.

I guess I could have easily fought her and taken her knife from the hands, but then what? Should I fight with a girl in a room of a sketchy hotel where she must be friend of the owner? She calls help and I am fucked.

Once again: the best thing to do under attack in a place like Medellin is RELAX. I quietly waited she finished her inspection, took my money (100 k?) and left the room. I left the hotel under the smiling and insolent eyes of the doorman ("Que pas?"), definitely aware of everything, who unlocked the gate for me to leave me out. I lost $40 but my skin is still intact. More experience gathered.

I do confirm age and check cedulas myself. But I'm glad you reiterated this point because it's an important one. To clarify: I like staying at official places with reputable professionals working there. Why? Because (1) they corroborate the age so that I've checked myself. And they've checked. Which is an extra barrier of protection preventing somebody from framing you or at worst. An assassin coming into a centro hotel w / no security guard and taking advantage of a situation (as seems to have happened just this past weekend). And (2) I ensure that I'm doing anything illegal in a foreign country. I know what the laws are and am meticulous at following them. I actually despise the foreigners who come to places like Medellin to try and prey on [CodeWord902], vulnerable, and exploited girls. Not only are ruining it for those who like to enjoy some legal fun with adult women. But they are contributing to a global crisis that must be addressed.

[ThadMax]

Unfortunately it takes just one dick for the entire building to lump us all into this idea of a gringo. After a gringo gets murdered here or dies read the comments below it in the news. They stereotype us all. You can be cool as shit Thadmax and from what you wrote I bet you are. But it's that asshole that rented before you that threw a empty bag of coke over the terrace and it landed below because he didn't give a shit because he's on vacation and or the guy that threw a condom out my window like it would magically disappear and not land on my neighbors terrace. They are nice sweat people who love to gossip all the time. They say soccer is the national pastime only second to gossip.

But yes as of now Blux, Cyan, Energy are safe to book many months out and not worry that you will get a email saying "sorry the building has changed the rules and I am going to have to cancel your June reservation"

Very good points. And of course I've acknowledged the anti-gringo sentiment. But I haven't run across many Colombians who have flat-out disrespected me or lumped me with the "Ugly American" simply after learning of my nationality. Granted, many think I'm South American until I open my mouth and speak broken Spanish. So that helps in keeping a low profile. But your point is well-taken as it can just take one asshole who has no class and just rampages across an apartment complex for the short-term rental agreements to Americans to be invalidated.

During my last trip to Energy. I noticed a lot of new signs up in the elevators with notices of newly enacted police policies / rules governing partying, pay for play, and even smoking cigarettes on balconies. I hope more Americans understand that Medellin is not Las Vegas. And you should never treat it as such. Hopefully it can be preserved for a bit longer before the Ugly Americans ruin everything. Which they are so adept at doing in other parts of the world.

Stay safe bro.

I agree 100%. Lots of hypocritical comments on this subject.

And yes, I was stopped by police on a taxi with a girl without cedula on the back seat, and all questions were for her and not for me. I am not supposed to ask cedula to any girl I talk with or I make the favor to give a lift.

I think you are assuming that those are chicas who I don't know. I have at least three friends, all over 18, who have lost the ID.

Sure. Same for me in CTG. I had to bring several girls to motels, instead of to my apartment, because they did not have the cedula (my porteros in most cases are adamantine in refusing entrance without being able to record the cedula number), and they were not under the age for sure.

Some people did not want to understand this, but I cannot repeat enough that in Colombia:
1) missing the cedula does not imply necessarily that a girl is unde*age,
2) neither featuring a cedula is a proof that the girl has legal age (in Colombia, a "fake"* cedula may cost around 100k). Beware of that, if you think that the cedula is the discriminating factor for you feeling not passing the limit of what is illegal or nonethical. Be responsible of yourself and do not commit to others.

* Note: Once again, the meaning of "fake cedula" in this context is not something sophisticated enough to enable someone to pass airport borders under a fake identity. It can be a lost or stolen valid cedula, with an plausible old photo (maybe in black and white) of a girl who does not look really different and therefore can be reasonably taken at first glance as of the holder. The doorman in low-end hotels is not really interested to act as a policeman. A quick glance at the cedulas and everyone is welcome.

You can bring women (of legal age) into those apartments. And you want the buffer of a security guard confirming legal age.

[Combo]

That wasn't my experience at all. I think it depends a lot on you, your attitude, and the kind of friends / women you bring to the apartment. If you're respectful, composed, and professional / dignified in how you carry yourself, you can have a very good rapport with the security guys at Energy / Blux / Cyan etc. The people who have problems are loud, disruptive and disrespectful of the local residents who live in the buildings. And often are bringing drugs into the buildings and being very loud about it. Further, they probably are bringing way too many women / pros into the building. And likely are pushing the envelope on under-aged girls as well. Which *should* make a security guy hate your guts.

If you're respectful and low footprint. You can bring women (of legal age) into those apartments. And you want the buffer of a security guard confirming legal age. In a place as beautiful and tolerant as Colombia. One should play within the rules at all times. Particularly as a foreigner.

They might smile at you, but chances are they don't like you. They know what you're in their country for and they know you're paying these girls more than they make in a week. They will generate hate in a lot of men. That doesn't mean they won't do their job and be friendly with you.

You are certainly correct that you're better off being respectful and keeping a low profile. And obviously not bringing comuna rats into the building.

[Bbrocs]

I couldn't agree more with the advice. I'm not sure what to make of the newspaper report. It is extremely light on details. It mentions a USA Citizen being stabbed in a Centro hotel while reportedly in the company of a woman. It's not hard to draw conclusions but I am very interested in the circumstances.

He's dead, from Jersey. Gossip about this today was unreal, they saying she was a assassin. I don't know what to believe. Stabbed to death I believe. Everyone is talking about this. I see a lot of you guys posting these $20 night hotels in centro. Look I like cheap to why not stay in Itaqui. Same priced room. Mayorista same 22 dollar girl and much safer?

I think you are assuming that those are chicas who I don't know. I have at least three friends, all over 18, who have lost the ID. I have known them when they had their ID, so I have no reason to doubt that they lost it. As for keeping my relationships private, I am not looking for young girls. I have more ladies than I can handle who are of legal age. I have friends who want to work UTR as much as possible. They will not go to hotels, and are picky about the apartments they will go to. In other words, they don't want a paper trail of their activities.

Best of luck to you if your ever with them and the police roll up and your a gringo and she looks borderline of age with no cedula.

[Fun Luvr]

9 out of ten times. If they "lost there cedula" they might be [CodeWord902]. ... Anyone maybe not you that says they want to keep there relationship private is normally looking for young girls. In today's age where everything has cameras how is anything private anymore?

[Knowledge]

I think it could be the same case. It's hard to say because the report in El Colombiano had very minimal facts. Either way it's very sad. The minuto30 report says the woman fled the scene. It does not identify the hotel. The victim is named but the woman is not. That tells me the hotel did not collect an ID. More news to come I suppose.

WTF? A stabbing & now a murder?

WTF is going on down there guys? Or is same incident as the stabbing but misreported (hopefully)?
