I finally enjoyed myself and had the time to take off my pants without worrying.
Chicas cost $15 for 30 minutes which is what Im looking for. The girl was really pretty and I thought I made the mistake of choosing a ***** but she wound up giving a really good covered blowjob which is hard to do and she finished me off with a handjob no rubber. I havent gotten that here yet.
I tipped her $5 so the next time she knows there is a good tip coming to her if she treats me right. I want to go down on her for sure but I didnt have my mouthwash.
Tommorow I will try masajes medallin. Until then.

Hi guys,

Sorry, but I did not mean to upset everyone with my comments about screaming like a "Loco Gringo" maybe it was a bad choice of words.

But being a business owner here and having to deal with a daily load of BS from various customers & public service companies, it is not easy to just wash your hands and accept customers that owe you $25,000-$50,000 and do not want to pay or when Andinatel & TV cable cut off your service even though you paid on time, just because they do not have the internal systems to properly monitor their customers. Or when customs (Aduana) here wants to charge you 30-40% of the value of the goods you are importing (when the published rate is 5%) just because one of the customs agents reviewing your cargo needs additional income to pay his own expenses (don't forget, Ecuador was rated the 3'rd most corrupt country in the world). Or when a Hospital purchasing agent has the "BALLS" to ask for a 50% Bribe to give you a $100,000 order when he is being paid by the state to do his job properly, if I paid that who do you think pays the ultimate price-- The Ecuadoran People, that's who.. and I do not think that is fair....

I have tried for over 2 years to be tolerant, understanding and accepting, but NO MORE, sorry but if you all had a business here, and not just visiting for a short time, you would totally understand what I am referring to. Every time I have done things the way it is done in the States, I have had shit piled on top of me, since I adopted the Loco Gringo attitude, my business has prospered because my customers know I mean business and that we are a serious and professional company that will not tolerate CORRUPTION, LIES, & TOTALLY BAD CUSTOMER SERVICE.

Make no mistake, I respect the Ecuadoran people otherwise I would not remain here, but I will not be trampled upon nor will I accept things because that is the "WAY IT IS DONE" when it is my livelyhood and that of my employees at stake, I have not run numerous successfull businesses in Latin America by acting that way, No Risk No Gain Guys.

Again, my appologies if I have offended anyone on the board.

Globe trotter,

If you're running a business and that's the way things have to be dealt with, then you have my apology and my sympathies as well.

On the other hand I just don't think it's good to recommend getting in people's faces when things don't go your way down there. I've seen too many times where a tourist loses his temper and becomes really ugly and confrontational and it really makes my stomach turn. And it really always ends up being Americans which just makes me ashamed and embarrassed. I just hope someone reads this and keeps it in mind next time they're ready to raise a fuss over somehthing stupid.

Sorry to go off topic.

I dont think anyone needs to yell at anybody thats why america is so awful.
One of the reasons I love south america is for the service. I feel they really appreciate your business.
Sometimes when Im shopping in a store the female clerks will drive you a little nuts showing you crap you dont need and doesnt relate to what your looking for but thats retail.
Americans have a bad reputation for being spoiled and its true we are very self involved. We demand alot.

I hooked up with an absolute 28yo hottie, with kind of a low self-esteem!

This chica is absolutely smoking, educated, lives with her sister and get this NO RUG RATS! LOL!

I forgot I have some Starwood points in my account so I'll be at the Shearaton for one night then headed to the northern coast for a few days and back to Quito for a day! Love to hook up for a beer and a quick run at your favorite casa!

Dirty: Just my two cents but, I don't think Globe meant it like that, from what I gather he owns his own bussiness I think, and if you have ever tried doing business in South America, somtimes you have to use a persuasive argument to get things done down there, or else you will be stuck with the ole Manana attitude! And nada will get done.

[Dirty Willy]

I strongly discourage yelling like a gringo loco to get your way. No one deserves this kind of treatment (Maybe some people do, but I don't if you're yelling at them 5 times a day, you should consider chilling out a little bit). And behaving like this just leaves the impression that gringos are jagoffs who bring down nothing but their money and are worthy of being ripped off. Have some consideration for people coming down later. If they experience enough of this, you'll see more of the working women behaving like putas on a downtown NY street corner. Mean, cold, corrupt and businesslike. Have some consideration for the future mongers if nothing else.

Even if you adhere to the idea that it's an 3rd world country, behaving like a spoiled child is really not a ideal way to demonstate your superiority.

You answered my main question pertaining to apts avaliable and a hotel suggestion. I have reservations at the Marriott but my buddies will be looking for cheaper places to stay which I might too but I got the Marriott for 80 a night. As always though, if I can be happy for cheaper, then so be it. lol.

What info do you have on cell phones, in particular sim cards. We all have unlocked quad band phones so sim cards would be nice. I saw that bell south and porta are carriers but not much else info wise.

Thanks again, I'll keep an eye out for your informative posts and those from other members.

Latina,
There are temporary apartments available fairly cheap, can check for you and let you know. As far as hotels, there is the Hotel Quito located next to American Ambassador's residence in the center of the city 5 minutes from Mariscal (GringoLand)which offers rates of about $50/night and is 4 star. Let me know what price range you are looking for and I can check out some alternates, hotels like Radisson & Marriott get about $150/night. Hostels are another matter $5-$10 range but you can forget about ladies coming there with you plus no privacy. Private casa are better but you go with the girl in their facility.

The better hotels tolerate a Lady visitor provided she gives her documents when going to your room, sometimes the hotel charges a small fee but if you register as a DOUBLE when checking in you can avoid the fee when the girl comes to your room, sometimes you need to scream like a LOCO GRINGO so they get the message. Ecuadorans by nature are very complacent and do not like verbal confrontations with Americans. I scream at them on an average of 5 times per day to get what I need done. So is the 3rd world.

DPILZBO-- Just let me know what particular info you need and will be glad to help.

[Dpilzbo]

I have the same kinds of questions and look forward to your reply here in the general forum or PM me if you like. Thanks for taking the time to help those looking forward to the answers.

Stay Safe!

Planning my first trip to Ecuador in mid January, will hit Quito first then maybe the beach!

I'm reading a lot about the casas but not much about bringing chicas back to your room, what is the todo la noche scene all about?

Thanks in advance,

LP!

Artisttype- Voltage in Ecuador is 110 vlt 60hz same as us.

Lan is one of the best airlines in Latin America, AA needs to learn from them, the stewardesses are fine not like the old hads working for AA. Hahahah

Tuna Man- Copa is a great airline and duty free shopping in Panama which is the transit point is great for bargains.

Latin Passion- Manta is a party Beach City as well as Esmeraldas but personally I prefer Manta, more babes and cheaper prices.

I have been living in Quito 3 years and love it here, lots of ladies 3-1 Ratio and they love Gringos because they don't haave a macho bullshit attitude..Plus they like our $$$$.

Let me know if anyone needs any other info, glad to help out.

[Latina Passion]

What is the best beach city for overall night life and action?

Thanks In Advance,

LP!

Copa is 49% owned by Continental. They use the same frequent flyer plan, Onepass. You can get free upgrades to FC if you're an elite with CO.

All the Copa planes that I've seen are 737's. 800/900 series, I think. Connections in Panama City are pretty easy, as it's not that big of a hub, and you can walk from one end to the other in 10 minutes or so.

Can someone confirm that I can use the same electrical outlet plug in ecuador as I do in the states? I think I was able to last time I've just forgotten.


Thanks,
