Medellin Reports

[VsebudetNY]

The literal translations of the Spanish verbs "estar" and "ser" are the exact same in English (to be), but they absolutely do not mean the identical same thing in Spanish. Keeping it really, really simple the former can be temporal while the latter is about the essence of something or someone that is more of a fixed or permanent characteristic. In English we don't have multiple verbs for "being". This makes it confusing and challenging, at least at first, to learn the differences between estar and ser and how to use those verbs in Spanish correctly. English also doesn't have "masculine" and "feminine" which I find to be (ser would be appropriate here haha) really fucking annoying! Why? Just to make it harder to learn Spanish? LOL!

The guy was born to be a teacher- Watch the videos and you will know when to use "ser" and when "estar". Watch his other videos to understand how to conjugate most of spanish verbs without memorizing all the forms.

Medellin is well forth the extra travel time and it is a hassle to get there from the West Coast, expect at least a 14 HR - 20 HR trip. Is it worth it? Hell yes, you will be throwing rocks at Tijuana after you visit Medellin. I usually stay 2-4 weeks when I visit so the 2 long travel days is not too bad. For $62 you can have a girl for a few hours and have GFE too if you play your cards right.

Absolutely agree with this. Tijuana is cool, yes, however, once I experienced the parade of women presented to you in the casas in Medellin I lost excitement for Tijuana (not entirely though because it's so easy to get there for me). Medellin is a great city to visit IMHO.

You've mentioned this a few times and it makes no sense. Lower your daily withdrawal limit? When they withdraw money they see your balance (at least at most banks here). Which means they take out what they can and come back the next day and the next and the next until they have it all. What do they do with you? Keep you unconscious or just kill you.

The smart way to handle this, if it concerns you, is to have an account with Fidelity or Schwab. You keep your cash in the investment account. You transfer money to your bank account when you want to take money out at an ATM. If you were to get 'scoped' or kidnapped or something. They would take out the daily limit money but see the balance was almost gone. There wouldn't be any motivation to keep you after they got all the money. ATMs don't show balances in investment accounts at the same financial institution.

Same with a transaction limit on your credit card. Usually that means notification if your do more than 3 transactions in a day (or whatever you set it at) it doesn't mean you can't do 4 or 5. Even if your bank allows you to set a hard limit, that just means they wait a day to get a few more charges, and the next day and the next etc. BTW what do you want to do with your credit card anyway? Colombia is mostly a cash based economy. Prepay your hotel or place your are staying and pay cash for your restaurants, taxis, bar bills, etc. So what happens if there is an emergency and you need to buy a plane ticket or something else? Just transfer money from your investment account to your bank account and pay in cash. It shouldn't wreck your lifestyle if it happens to come up.

At the very least hide your damn credit card somewhere no one could ever find it. A lot of better hotels have a security box in the reception area (at my hotel it is like a safe deposit box). Put your card in an envelope and leave it there.

As to the passport. You call the American Embassy in Bogota and they will help you get an emergency passport. You won't be able to fly on a copy of our passport.

You don't have to have schwab or fidelity to do what you are saying; you can use any bank in fact. I myself use Capital one. What you do is you open a checking and a Savings account but you only link the checking account to your debit card, not your Savings account, you can call the customer service at the bank to have it set up this way. Then you keep your big money in the non linked savings account and whenever you need to use the ATM just get on your banking app and transfer what you need from the savings to the checking and then withdrawal at the ATM. There used to be a limit of 6 transfers per month out of the savings account this used to be called Regulation the and they used to charge you a fee if you withdrew or transfered out more than 6 times per month, however that Regulation the was suspended as of 2021 because of Covid and it hasn't been reinstated, capital one even confirmed this when I called and asked about it. So you can make as many transfers out of the savings per month as you want. So don't be afraid to keep your thousands in that unlinked Savings account and just transfer and withdraw as needed. If anyone ever steals your debit card, the money in the savings will be untouchable (unless if they also stole your phone and had access to your banking app in which case you would be fucked). But you can minimize that by using a burner phone that doesn't have your banking app on it or just leaving the your phone at home / hotel or whatever.

And as Villlany noted alot of banks will show on the ATM receipt how much is avail in the account printed on the receipt, but when using this method it only shows how much is left available in the corrientes (checking) account and the ahorros (savings) option doesn't work or show anything, it will just give an error msg.

Do you guys think having an uncovered BJ at the casa is taking a big chance for std?

Another question, some regular girls just come over to get paid, after ine nut they want to leave and GFE experience is super hard to find. Has that been other peoples experience?

Yes your dick will fall off in a month.

Ask thd airbnb "Hi what's the guest policy because I have some meetings for work and some things I wanted to show clients".

That ususally is the best way to know if its unlimited or if it's strict. If its strick they will say "no more then 3 or so per visit".

I know what buildings are cool if you want to dm me I can tell you some to look for.

This is funny to me just be straight out and ask if you can bring dates and overnight. Why beat around the Bush? They know you're a sex tourist and there's no way around it. I do this in all my travels Latin America and Europe.

Was in Medellin in November and had a great time. Stayed in Laureles and Poblado. Parque lleras is an experience and near by road. Wished the construction was completed though. Met another monger and hung out a few days. Checked out Gusto but won't be going back, priced both of us out as we could had stayed home for the price. Visited El Centro but didn't partake.

Overall it was fun and a great first experience!

Met an Uber driver who offered personal taxi and other services. He was willing to do mongering tours but I didn't take it up as I didn't have time. His brother has a boat on Guatape and seems like he helps throe parties or at least helps with logistics such as finding sites and girls. He knows some prepagos which I got their contact, but did not partake, again not enough time.

Never used his services but seems nice enough, speaks English pretty good. Feel free to PM me for his contact.

Best, I think, to be more direct and ask the host about whether they allow guests overnight. Most places have some system for monitoring guests and if they don't like what you are doing they can boot your az to the street with no refund. And Airbnb will not be on your side if they say that it is because you are participating in sex tourism. Sex tourism is hugely different than having a friend or co worker drop by for a tea in the afternoon.

I am going to make my first trip in a few weeks. I will fly from Bay Area to LAX and take Avianca to Medellin. I am looking online and You Tube for AirBNB at El Problado or Laurels. I am talking to women on Seeking and Tinder. It's hard to know which way to go. I am total sex-pat want to be. I don't care about "drinks" I am intersted in meeting women. I might try to go to a club to get takeout. Any ideas I am open to.

I am thinking about a visit to Medellin later this year, planning to stay in an AirBnB, if I can figure out how to ensure that I can bring ladies to my place.

I am fluent in Spanish (amazingly).

What I would like to know if Medellin is worth it, compared to Tijuana to warrant the travel time and expense from California. Tijuana ladies are now asking for $100 for a quickie, and they can be very mechanical.

Those numbers are from several years ago, it's at least double that now.

Thanks for the catch. Currently it's 1,087,500 COP daily (1,087,467 if you're being picky). The point still stands.

And then be prepared to be confused AF since ser and estar is the same word in English, and since ser and ir have some identical meanings ("I was" and "I went" are the same in Spanish, for example). But yeah, flash cards work great. Keep them in your pocket and look at them while you are wasting time in lines.

The literal translations of the Spanish verbs "estar" and "ser" are the exact same in English (to be), but they absolutely do not mean the identical same thing in Spanish. Keeping it really, really simple the former can be temporal while the latter is about the essence of something or someone that is more of a fixed or permanent characteristic. In English we don't have multiple verbs for "being". This makes it confusing and challenging, at least at first, to learn the differences between estar and ser and how to use those verbs in Spanish correctly. English also doesn't have "masculine" and "feminine" which I find to be (ser would be appropriate here haha) really fucking annoying! Why? Just to make it harder to learn Spanish? LOL!

Thank you for suggestions Recondite,

I have found working girls a useful tool to practice Spanish too, apart from those that speak gutter / barrio Spanish. Many of them don't have a gigantic vocabulary and their level of Spanish is not so advanced. Plus they are usually very patient.
