ALL - FARC is out bombing the hell out of different areas of the country (Northwest Colombia (normally safer)). Many dead and many wounded.

This to celebrate the 40th anniversary of their start of the "war."

Please see the link below for the CNN story:

Good Luck and please be safe. Gringos are easy to spot and although that might help you with the ladies, it also makes you an easy target for the FARC.

Hey Pilgrims ,anyone have info on San Andreas island ?

[JT]

JWADD,
YOU are the man! Seriously! I have wondered about the action in and around Leticia for a while now. You frontiered this frontier for us mongers! Can I ask some questions?

1. What hotel(s) did you stay. How much? location?

2. Do you have any descriptions of the chicas? Any chicas on the Brazilian side?

3. Since it is a frontier area, is the Brazilian visa still required for U.S. citizens?

4. My Spanish is not good. Do you think I will be totally lost there? Is good Spanish necessary to pick up girls?

5. My email: iceman_is_your_daddy@yahoo.com Please drop me an email. I will be in Bogota and Cartagena next month and want to take a day or so and go to Lecicia.

Thanks again for the report!

LETICIA, COLUMBIA (and TABATINGA, BRASIL):

These two towns form part of the so-called "Triple Frontier" between Brasil, Columbia and Peru. Peru has no town represented here.

The area seems basically safe enough. I encountered no problems on either side of the Brasilian-Columbian border.

The place to stay in this area is definitely Leticia. One can cross back and forth between the borders without any problems -- but make sure your documents are straight when leaving the area (get Columbian passport necessities done at the Leticia airport, and Brasilian formalities done at the federal police deptartment on Rua International in Tabatinga -- Lonely Planet is not up-to-date on this).

I wasn't able to find any action in Tabatinga. The main road is Rua International (which turns into Rua Amizade in Leticia). There's a club -- the Oasis Disco -- right near the border that's supposed to have some action. Went in to check it out, and it was totally dead.

On this same road is Escandalo -- Tabatinga's main disco. Supposedly there's action to be found here, too. It was closed on both nights that I went (Tues., Weds.).

Taxi drivers mentioned other places, which I couldn't undertand (due to that damnable jungle-Portugese they speak). It might be worth doing a little more research on it. Keep your eyes open, though; Tabatinga looked a little rough. Rua International might have a good early-evening SW scene.

Leticia, on the other hand, was very mellow with a decent little scene.

Rua Amizade, after about 200 hundred feet away from the border, becomes tree-lined and fairly residential. It is along this stretch that about 3 small, live-in brothels may be found.

The best is called "Te Esperamos," and is more or less central to the others. Find this place, in other words, and you'll see the rest. Get a taxi driver to take you there for about 1 USD. No addresses available.

Most of these girls charge about 10 USD for a couple of hours, with beds on site for a dollar or two. Drink prices were a little elevated, but still relatively cheap. And, believe it or not, there were more than a few good looking girls here. The area seemed totally safe.

Most of the bars down by that last main street before the incline toward the river have available girls hanging out in them. The scene is very basic and easy to approach. Basically, any place with neon lighting, single girls and loud music is a pick-up joint.

Have fun -- and know that you're doing some real travelling if you've got yourself here!

Happy Hunting,
JWadd

To Surfer

Thanks for the negative recommendations. Tips about places to avoid are precious.

Keep us posted about Santa Marta!

[Surfer]

XXL: If you go to BAQ, AVOID the "strip clubs" Lusitania & Zona Roja like the plague (the night I went there I WISHED I was in TJ!); TONS of hot nonpros in the discos on weekends, best in El Prado area. There MUST be plenty of casas too (4th largest city in Colombia), but I had a novia there so didn't get to check it out.

RE: Santa Marta-I am likely going there on my trip next week and will report back. I have high hopes but we'll see.

[XXL]

Santa Marta?

Tired of Cali. Might try Barranquilla.

I heard Santa Marta could be quite pleasant because of the beach etc.

Is there a substantial night-life in Santa Marta?

You found some XXX vids with girls from Periera?
What were the names? I'd love to check them out.
I met a puta from there one time in Spain and she was
awesome, so I'd love to check it out in Columbia,
but have a hard time finding any info.

[Eric7]

I'm throwing this out to anyone who might have info.
Is Periera really all it's cracked up to be in terms of
women,sex and mongering? I've heard reference in the
past, and have run across a couple of XXX Latina viedos
that were shot in Periera. I've also heard the best putas
in Colombia come from Periera.
Thanks for any comments/feedback.
