Cape Verde

[Drifter86]

The street walkers I saw on Sal's main street are really ugly.

And yes most people in Cabo Verde speak no or very little English.

Also right in other posts. Language is a problem. People speak Portuguese and Creole and not so many other languages.

This makes is all more difficult.

You mean even English is a rarity here?

SWs on the main road. They come up to you (40-50 US for FS). Near the discos.

Sorry guys,

I did go to Mindelo and Sal.

I met nice lady out in Mindelo and later there was no reason to look for other lady.

I didn't really see any even. And in the club there are not any too.

I think also because is a small town. All people know each others, so have to be careful.

Later I was in Sal, but only 1 day. Went out on the main street and there where some ladies in there that seemed to be looking but they are very ugly.

So I went to bed early for catching flight back home early morning.

I'm sorry I'm not very good at helping. I think what was said before is true though. Cape Verde is not very good for this.

Better to find a normal local girl and go out with her.

I arrived in Praia a few days ago.

Went out hiking for few days and not spent so much time out.

Checked the old posts and searched online, but not much came up.

Only a few (presentable) ladies on Tinder and Badoo.

Two ladies seemed keen (without offering money), but they are in the next city.

And also two girls that are on Sal. They do look like they are prob. There for business (I'll verify that when I get to Sal).

Suggested some business to one that didn't seem to keen on progressing for free and asked if she would offer a "programma" and she let me know she was open to it.

Let me know that she'll not do anal and no BBFS, but she would do BBBJ (didn't ask about CIM).

On whatsapp she told me to give her a price and I opened with 4 K. She mentioned that I'm far too cheap and that it's no use discussing further..

Thanks for reopening this location. I'm looking forward to reading your reviews.

Asked her what price she'd suggest as I'm not aware of the local pricing, but she didn't really answer. I didn't inquire further.

I don't really have time today anyway before flying to the next island.

I have not seen too many talents in the street either. I'm actually a bit disappointed with what's on offer.

Covid situation.

Masks are not mandatory, but some places still tell you to wear them. Not in the bars and restaurants though.

Should be in Mindelo over the weekend and will inform on the situation there.

Is it possible to get around and maybe even score some good looking women without knowing Portuguese?

Yes but knowing the language makes your life easier.

I can't speak much French, yet I have had GFs in several different Francophone African countries. Of course it is possible to score some good looking women without being fluent in the language they speak. If you are good looking and friendly, anything is possible. If you are average to below average in looks but have a fat wallet, anything is possible. In the end, anything is possible no matter what.

On the ground day number 4,generally not particularly good for mongering, here my observation:

- Pub Experience. Visited last night was only customer there, counted 5 girls in total most casually dresses sitting&sleeping on the couch. Spoke with one, bit in English bit in french, she told me the price is 15 k escudos (135 Eur). I sad no chance, this is Cabo Verde not Paris. She asked me how much I'm ready to pay. I offered 3 k (27 eur) what she declined. After that I left her on the couch to continue sleeping and sat at the bar and had a longer chat with the lady working there. In spent quite some time there and no customers. Girls were sleeping. BTW you have to spend a minimum amount of 500 escudo for drinks which equals two beers.

- Pub Calema VIP upstairs-more expensive drinks than downstairs, couple of girls sitting around, some looking OK some not so much. Don't know how things work there and didn't ask. Left after my first beer. Barely any customers.

- Freelancers- some will aproach you but most ugly / very ugly. Took one tough, I was having a drink in Buddy bar, conversation started, I asked how much, she replied 10 k (I said no way, she asked how much I would pay I said 2 k,at the end settle for 3 k+tip. Mediocre in every way, but gave her 200 tip, so overall paid 30 Eur..

The issue is 1 language barrier and 2 competing with older mongers.

Calema girls are 60 EUR. As for freelancers. It's best during the day to get the gems.

At night you might have gotten lucky with Disco Pirata or other tourists.

One other FL asked me last night for 50 eur, she was ugly, I offered 1 k (9 eur) she was ready to go for 2 k but didn't like her so gave her a miss.

-Returning back to my accommodation a girl called me from a window offering massage, BJ but I wasn't interested and she seemed to be fat.

-Today I spoke to some local guys, one toom me to an apartment there was a fat girl she offered me massage with all extras for 60 Eur, I refused, she asked me how much I would pay but I didn't really like her, I said 15 eur and luckily she was not interested.

-another guy told me he knows some good looking chicks but the price is 6000. Didn't bother to take a look since that's more than I'm ready to spend for a shag.

That's it for now. Monday morning I'm leaving Sal, will report if anything interesting happens in the meantime.

Flight booked going there in June.

I speak a bit french, not sure if it helps.

I will stay in Santa Maria. Is Espargos worth a visit?

Only if you speak Portuguese and know a local.

I went there to one nightclub and it was packed with mulatta chicas.

Try Pub Calema upstairs and Experience club.

You can also try with the local waitresses.
