Lima

[Sun08]

I have never been to Peru but have read all of 2015 trip reports. First, it looks to me David is missed. All the help he was providing without making money.

I have a question about Tequila Rocks. In the map I see other locations besides Miraflores. Do those locations have working girls as well or they are just normal bars?

Are there any bars in Lima that have room inside the bar? I have read about Las Cucardas and Trocadero and already aware of those two places. Thanks,

I guess Guerinto can cross Harem off his list then. (or was he the ISG member?

Thanks for your series of reports. Keep 'them coming and don't leave us hanging on all the contacts you made that potentially are later hookups!

I was the ISG member, but I did not go to Harem. It looks like I will cross it off my list, since a S /. 200 takeout fee plus S /. 400 per hour is delusional. Can't see this place doing business for long unless there are a lot of stupid people who enjoy giving away their money. I'll stick with Tequila Rocks, thank you!

Last night started the evening at old pub with an ISG member. Mucho eye candy. Decided to checkout harem club.

The door guy tried to charge me 100 soles when the charge is 50 soles. Arrived to no chicas. The ones that arrived were all fat and not my type. This strip club is horrible and a rip off. Admission includes one drink. Beers are 30 soles. Takeout fee is 200 soles. Chica rate is 400 for una hora at hotel. Left after one beer and headed back to old pub.

Yesterday met a nice normal chica from Buenos Aires while walking around the malecon. She was knitting a dress while sitting on a bench. We walked down to the ocean which has many stairs. She is a chef. Visiting family and staying with papa on Diego ferre street. Hopefully we meet up today or tomorrow.

Good crowd. Nice selection of chicas that love flirting with gringos. Found a taxi driver that was helping me find chicas. No luck. Drive to a chica place in barranco that has a private electronic gate. Price was 130 soles. Passed. Joint was called Soho.

Taxi took me to a few local places in San Isidro. The first was golden pepper's. Decent place. One doable but she was busy. The second place was bad. Returned to pizza alley. Went to the night club next to old pub. Packed. Found a sexy chica with a pretty face, fake eye lashes and nice fake rack.

Annie spoke enough English to make it work. Single mom whose baby daddy is Russian. 10 year old son. Drove to hotel. While entering hotel, discovered my wallet was gone. Taxi driver thought it could be back at the restaurant. Drove back to pizza alley to drop off Annie since I had no money.

Luis the driver inquired with other taxi drivers about my wallet. An older driver gave it to me. It dropped out of my pocket while returning to pizza alley. Some soles were missing but everything else was there. Drove to ATM to get soles.

Returned to hotel. Angie wanted soles first. I told her after complete which I said from the start. I always mention this. Agreed to half up front. Good love marker. Loves sex. Also wanted anal which she says is part of completo. Declined. Kissing was decent minus tongue. Very willing.

Sucks sack well. BJ was good with good teeth action. Wanted coca, cervezas and watching porn during the session. Chica loves sex and cums easily in sideward positions. Good performer in cowgirl and missionary. Refreshing to have sex with a horny chica.

Discovered later that Sandra the black chica from Ecuador was attempting to contact me at 330 am.

At my hotel, she refused to provide ID. Staff still allowed access. At the room, she demanded $ first. Denied. Showed her the soles. I then proposed one half upfront. She declined. While this was occurring, kept the door open. Finally asked her to leave. She was surprised. Walked downstairs. Provided her 10 soles for taxi.

Tonotcreate drama at the hotel, I usually clear lot of things before hand, like payment afterwards, BBBJ, Cola (anal) etc. Why waste time when there is other fish.

Yesterday while shopping at the Inka market, I spoke to a merchant about chicas. Showed me a personal ad that tourists had utilized. The ad was for Paola, 940.642. 660. The hotel front desk spoke to her.

She rents a room directly across the street from old pub at 270 calle bella Vista room 401. She buzzes you in. Large apartment with many rooms. She was there alone. Rates are 80 soles for 30 minutes and 160 for 60 minutes. Average looking with big saggy Tits. No kissing. Very much like a normal street walker. Las cucardes and ying yang were much better.

Old pub was good last night. Young and old chicas. Chicas want you to speak Spanish. Hot young ones. Older ones were not bad. Met a black chica from Ecuador on holiday. Naomi Campbell like. Walked back to my hotel. Speaks good English.

Hairdresser is normal profession. Hooker on the side. At my hotel, she refused to provide ID. Staff still allowed access. At the room, she demanded $ first. Denied. Showed her the soles. I then proposed one half upfront. She declined. While this was occurring, kept the door open.

Finally asked her to leave. She was surprised. Walked downstairs. Provided her 10 soles for taxi.

Decided to find some Centro massages. Banos turcos revival is just a relaxation place with no chicas. A referral lead us to a massage place called Banos turcos spa.

The place has the feel of a prison. 30 soles for entrance but you can not see the lineup first. Only 3 girls at around 300 pm. Lady said around 730 there would be 7 chicas.

Upon returning to the hotel decided to return to ying yang spa. Place was full and needed to wait. Better lineup than previous visit. Upon returned selected a very sexy chica Mariella.

Allowed French kissing and was very service oriented. No rush with a nice tight small ass and fake perfectly round Tits. Provides excellent oral. Nice licking of the sack. Good Swedish type massage.

Taxi driver friend found a willing young neighborhood single mom. Shall meet up tomorrow. May also visit las Cucardes tomorrow as well.

Arrived in Lima today from Arequipa via avianca air. Maybe less efficient than LAN but cheaper for gringos buying outside of Peru. Double booked my seat. Upgraded me to first class minus the meal. Tacky.

Last night a guide from Arequipa was going to take me to a place called tequila. Mentioned they had many Colombians and Brazilians. Rate is 100 to 150 soles per hour. Also said la acromar is decent and open. Unfortunately we both got too hammered from our day tour which included a visit to two pisco distilleries and cervezas.

During the morning, visited the Indian market in miracles. While wandering around, I ran into a slim hottie selling jewelry at a stall. Inquired about pricing for a silver souvenir spoon. Walked away. Returned and purchased the spoon. Chica is attending an English institute. Told her I can help her practice speaking English and homework. She immediately pulled it out with her colleague wanting to learn. An issue was the continual rolling of the letter are.

Asked Melanie if she wanted to accompany me to jockey plaza. Promised her a propina for her time. She quickly agreed. We also talked about drinking cervezas at pizza alley area to do her homework. She agreed to do after her 5:30 pm shift on future days. Unavailable on Monday night.

Chica is 18 years old from Callajo area. My taxi driver friend said girls from this area are known for being more open minded and daring. Tomorrow my taxi driver will tactfully probe her to determine if there are any red flags. My biggest concern is seeing her ID.

Anyway I registered her at my hotel. The girl at the desk said it was fine because she is a normal girl.

Thanks. I would say the average cost of a decent one bedroom in Bangkok near the main entertainment area and the Sky train is about $800 to $1000 per month when converted from baht to USD so basically about the same. I found a new place recently for $700 plus utilizes but it's a bit of a one off.

I pay $950 USD per month, furnished with internet, landline, electricity, water and cable. No additional costs other than good, drink and entertainment. Plus a cleaning lady once a month. It is quiet at night and I am about a 6 minute walk to the church in Kennedy Park.

The apartment is fine. I know I could get nicer, but then I would pay $300 more a month. Also, privacy is very important to me and I have that here. Nobody questions my comings and goings and I am the only one on my floor at night,

[Guerinto]

I used to think the same way too but when I lived in Peru (2011-2013) the conversion rate was $1. 00 = 2. 70 Nuevo soles. In the end, I decided not to live there. It was not that much cheaper in Lima than Europe or US if you wanted to live up to that level of comfort.

Now it's $3. 50 NS, a whopping 30% devaluation. Then, it was more expensive than I anticipated, especially Miraflores and other upscale neighborhoods. I wonder if this devaluation and related decline in mineral commodity exports has resulted in a decrease in apartment rentals and other mongering costs in Peru? What's a decent one bedroom going for in MF these days?

Of course, the personal safety issues, particularly outside of the expensive areas, was always a concern. After living in Asia, I can vouch that personal safety issues are much greater in Peru and South America in general.

I had the same conclusion.

If you would have asked me 10/15 years ago I would have been " sold " on the idea in a NYC minute. I seriously thought LIMA was my destiny.

I 've contemplated retiring in Lima (on a "rentista visa") but the rising cost of living and the decreasing mongering climate are reasons not too.

Did you live there and that is the reason you left?

Curious to know.

I never "lived" there except on my last ten or so visits there I rented a flat in Miralofres. Renting makes you feel lile you live there much more than staying in a hotel. I 've contemplated retiring in Lima (on a "rentista visa") but the rising cost of living and the decreasing mongering climate are reasons not too. Earthquakes are another good reason since renting a seismically secured place would render accomodation prohibitive. I'll have to die some day but I don't want to die crushed between slabs of concrete. I've studied earthquakes at some scientific depth and they're something you can't stop being scared off by studying/understanding them. Quite the reverse. You can stop being scared of AIDS the more you know about the disease but earthquakes are different. The indiscriminate and geotechnically naive building of high-rises going on now in Lima is downright criminal. The contractors/planners should be the ones going to jail, not the pimps.

Oh latinlovesearch is another site that used to be big down there. I haven't logged on that one in years so I don't know if it even still exists.

Latinlovesearch still exists and met one keeper off that site. They've redesigned the site, but it is still slow and not a lot of volume on there. Definitely a higher than usual amount of scammers on there as well. When I switch my address to Canada, I get numerous webcam offers and Nigerian / Russian scammers posing as ladies looking for love.

Latin American Cupid is definitely a good site with minimal scammers, although there are working girls on the site.

Mr. E's prior report reminded me of an experience several years ago in Lima involving Craigs List. I had been to Lima few times at this point but stayed in hotels, which I considered over priced and not very private.

For this visit, I decided to look for a one week rental with Craigs List and found a one bedroom apartment in a new building in Miraflores. I arranged the rental through the owner and only had her name and limited correspondence with her before my arrival. The plan was to pay for the unit upon the following morning after my arrival. I arrived in the late evening on Friday with enough time to go to Tequila Rocks and find a date for the night and she left before the owner came by for the rent. I frankly was expecting an older lady -- you know the type -- middle aged, Peru style thick rimmed glasses, frumpy, and unattractive. Instead a gorgeous girl appeared at my door and sat down with me to chat about Lima.

I was meeting a friend at a nearby coffee shop on Balta and she offered to show me a short cut. However, my friend was not at the shop (a lucky break). She mentioned that she was carrying the rent money for several units, as she was a property manager, and needed to make a deposit. I volunteered to accompany her and off we went.

After making the deposit, I suggested a late lunch at Punta Sal, a popular fish restaurant overlooking the Pacific and the Malecon in Miraflores. We had a nice lunch and several glasses of wine and I made an excuse about going back to the apartment. When we returned, I mentioned that I had nothing to drink and suggested going to the market to pick up some wine while she waited in her apartment. She readily agreed and it was at this moment, I realized that I had a real shot with this chica.

After drinking most of the wine, we went to the patio and in no time we were making out. Within five minutes, she was in my (her) bedroom. She was incredible and in fact I came on her face *(a first time for me) as she asked me to come there. I never asked but it may have been her 1st time also. Over the next few years, we maintained a passionate LD relationship until I blew it but that's a story for another day.
