Thanks for the newspaper link. Also I email the ecohotel however it is 7km out of town and they indicated they only have dialup internet,so I will have to pass. Sounds like good place to take your Novia though.

You can find apartments to out-call chicas and even a swinger show.

The non-pro action I think is just as easy as pros. Just a little more work, But isn't the challenge all the fun of it?

Looks to be great little clean city full of non-polluted americanized chicas.

With internet and of course chica friendly. Not too much traffic noise would be a bonus.

Glad summer is almost here, will be hitting Mde Mansion and Cali also!

Thanks,

Looks like great place. My novia found this place because I coundn't find anything decent for decent price. She paid it for me and wont tell me how much it was but she said it wasn't a lot. I'm going to call to see more or less how much are the rooms. I'm going to stay there this weekend to go see the non-pro novia. There is a English Version on the site as well but I speak fluent Spanish from 10 years of building homes in Texas. No pics but will be mongering in Bogota the night of the layover. Pics will be available from those adventures. Let me know when your exact dates are and see if we can meet up to take the chicas out.

Peace,

DDH

Hi Guys,

Is it true that one can walk out of Colombia from Leticia without going through Colombian emigration?

You may run into trouble on the Peruvian side in Santa Rosa if you have no exit stamp. Last time I was through there, a woman was stamping tourists in or out.

Women are perceived to be less inclined to be bribed in Peru than men. Although when there is a shift change you could wait until a Peruvian official of the male gender is there. I would not be surprised if border guards anywhere could be made to look the other way, as long as there is nothing about you in their computer. I did not see any computers in Santa Rosa btw.

This triple frontier area appears to be more relaxed, people less nationalistic, their common bond is the jungle. There was no one on the Colombian side when I arrived in Leticia from Peru, two years ago. I imagine one could live in this town for years and no one would ask for their papers. The police would probably know about you very soon, but they would leave you alone if you were not a troublemaker. It's much different from the rest of Colombia, as Tabatinga is a lot different from the rest of Brazil.

Hi LatinLife,

I assume you had a good time in Pereira since you were down there for 10 weeks. I am planning a two week visit either late March or late April to Pereira and Armenia.

Is the condo fairly quite in terms of noise from traffic and neighbors ?

I noticed you are not accepting private messages, otherwise I would not have posted to the board.

Thanks

Turbo is really dangerous, full of paramilitaries. I hope she has no problems, well come to think of it Detroit and New orleans, in certain areas are just as bad.

I have rented a 2 bedroom penthouse in pereira from jan' 07 to jan ' 08.

There is a room with bathroom for hire for short periods.

Located in the centre of the city it is very secure and excellent for the Pereira night scene.

Just returned to England for xmas after 10 weeks in Pereira, there are the usual chicas available in the streets and clubs. Prices from 25k (wouldn't touch them with yours!) to 120k but with a little time and effort the non pro scene here is very rewarding. If you have a car you are made.

David33,

When you leave Colombia from Leticia, do you see any official Colombia EMIGRATION? Colombia may give me shit to leave the country, so I am just wondering if going through Leticia would be an option to leave that Hell hole I'm in.

Leticia Colombia, Tabatinga Brazil, and Santa Rosa Peru share a common border. When one arrives from Peru from down the Amazon river, a customs officer boards the Transtur boat and checks some of the luggage (he checked mine). Leaving Iquitos on the start of the trip, an immigrations officer boards and does the passport thing. You will need an entry stamp for Peru in order to be present in the country legally. I would go to the Transtur office in Tabatinga and talk to the Peruvian there, Max. He can probably tell you what you need to know. I was in and out of Brasil without a visa and nothing happened....but I had to go to the airport in Leticia and get an entry stamp for Colombia.

For those looking for some action in Santa Marta.

A lot of streetworkers on Carrera 1 downtown (just in front of the beach). Many ugly ones, but some seemed acceptable (but have not tried). However, be careful where you put your feet (and the rest): I've seen (or better: I've heard) a few tranvestites there. Also seen in the afternoon three "cantinas" with loud music and some chicas in Carrera 4, east of the cathedral plaza. But I've not been there at night (be cautious: the area does not seem quite friendly).

All this is fairly downmarket. In case you have more costly tastes, you should probably try the beaches area (El Rodadero).

I think Santa Marta is also a good place for non-pros. I'm not especially attractive, but I had some difficulties to get rid of my hotel's receptionist, who did not look bad at all (unfortunately, I had another date). Won't tell the name of the hotel, of course!!! (I plan to come back for business in a few weeks).

Anyway, enjoy your stay there.
