I've been reading several threads about having a blackmarket exchange. Where can you find a decent place in Caracas?

[Aragorn]

Punters, mongers and other assorted rapscallions,

I have arrived in Caracas for a three year job position. I shall do my best to report on the pay for play scene in this corner of South America. Please understand that there will be constraints, family, work, Chavez. But I shall do my best to provide reports when I can.

My initial impression the that the birds here are not as good looking as I'd imagined. I have seen some breathtaking beauties, but the mean is far lower than you would think. Argentina has much better looking females, both on and off the menu.

That said, Caracas is a tit lovers paradise. I've never seen so many implants, especially ridiculously large ones, in my life. The ladies here love showing off their tits. Low cut tops abound. Thank you mild weather. The second thing going for women in Caracas is **** wear. The tighter, the lower the cut, the more uncomfortably high the heel the better it seems.
That includes offices, government ministries, hospitals, shop girls, fat and wrinkly indigenous women in the open air market. Caracas seems to have a lot of young women so they always look nicer and every woman looks good them she has my tool in her mouth.

The Bolivars futures rate is 6,100 to the yankee dollar so do not accept anything less than 5,000 from your blackmarketeer. Always insist on a higher return for a 100 euro or dollar note.

I do not know where they had their beauty queens and soap opera actresses that you see on TV. These people are mostly black or mestizo and are the ruddest people in the world. They are also very over weight. I speak perfect Spanish and I had a hard time understanding their muffled Spanish.

sorry to hear about your experience although I feel its alittle unfair to judge the country after a 4 day stay. you obviously don't know where the action is since you spent such a limited time there. many people I have spoken with say Venezuela is on par with colombia in terms of culture and hot women.

Do not bother visiting this country. This city is a hell hole and did not meet any of my expectations. There is very little to see in this country if you are interested in non-mongering activities. You can see everything this city has to offer in two days. I do not know where they had their beauty queens and soap opera actresses that you see on TV. These people are mostly black or mestizo and are the ruddest people in the world. They are also very over weight. I speak perfect Spanish and I had a hard time understanding their muffled Spanish.

I only checked out one mongering site. Angelus Club and was very disappointed.

Save the money on airfare and hotel costs. Go elsewhere. Caracas was part of my travel itenerary to Cartagena and Bogota. If you must visit, it's good enough for two days only.

The exchange rate is $3800 bolivares/$1 US at the airport. Everyone is changing dollars at the airport. It's OK, you won't get in trouble. All the cops are paid off. You won't get ripped off. Keep in mind that $100 US = $380K bolivares. The biggest bill is $5OK and it's orange.

The Monday 27 August 2007 issue of the Wall Street Journal has an article on the economy and inflation in Venezuela. It mentions black market exchange rates exceeding 4800 bolivars/dollar.

I have not yet hobbied in Venezuela but am wondering if the economic pain there could translate into bargain prices for the mongering tourist. Opinions?

You won't get 4800 bolivars/dollar exchange rate unless you are local, or introduced by a local, and talking about amount of 5 figures or more.

Exchange in black market is not so BLACK. Notes in us$100 and us$50 are more welcome. The first offer I get from different occasion.

exiting international airport 3400
national airport 3500
paying hotel with us$ 3200
jewelry/gold shop 3800
restaurant 3900

This is first offer, rate will go up after negotiation.

I plan to visit Venezuela, and wish to know which cities have the hottest and easiest chicks to hunt.

Thanks!

[Enigma84]

I read threw the whole Venezuela section and it seems the hottest of girls are in the upper classes but what about the lower end ladies?

[Ryjerrob]

So I guess I better find some other place to check out. I'm just looking for someplace south for a week before I head over to Rio. I have 3 weeks, an a huge desire for fun.

Does anybody have some contacts or tips for hot girls from vargas. Maybe even streetaction?

Thank you!

Cheers and happy hunting!

taking over the tv station seems like a way to engage the masses. you can fuck with my oil, you can fuck with my freedoms, but don't fuck with my mtv.

they are demonstrating outside my hotel as we write! (lots of very young cops carrying a lot of pump actions and riding three to a trailbike. think i may keep a low profile.)

however i get the impression that they are more worried about their loss of "soaps" than free speech. mind, if it means no more "sin tetas no hay paraiso" i share their concern.

he has his sights on globovision now......

how long is chavez going to be allowed to carry on before someone takes him out?

not that I want this but it seems inevitable. esp since he has all that oil.

just arrived back in caracas after too long a break! it is eeeeexxxxppppeensive!! the "official" rate at banks and cambiors is currently 2,114.60 bolivars to the us dollar. if you use a credit card that is about the exchange rate you will get. however, if you loiter at the airport and watch, there are money changers lurking around and you can score between 3,200 and 3,500 bolivers per dollar. lie like a bastard and tell them you have a friend in town who will give you 3,600.00. observe first to ensure you aren't getting caught in a sting as of course this is highly illegal. yawn.

taxi from airport is $60 or 130,000 bolivars. look suddenly everything is 30% off if you were to use the scored blovars!! (and it takes between an hour and 90 minutes depending on traffic.) only use the taxi negras....anything else is courting disaster.

btw - watch out for the bastards who will work the exchange rate out at 3k per $. also watch your change. they will try not to give you the 500 bols you are due - even at the exchange places!

many hotels will take cash. bolivars.

this is not a prime choice place for the hobby, although they are around, but the environment can get a bit "tense" (thanks, ford!) and a rotating neck is a must!

the good news is that the chicas are still stunning, and at car window levels the sights of their asses gave me a woody. ("i'm horny, therefore i am?") it also shocked the hotel receptionist.

suerte
