Bogota Reports

[Bango Cheito]

Attached is the actual homicide rate in Bogota, by area.

Wow, that's WAY down from 10 years ago. You kids don't know how good you have it LOLOL!

[Xpartan]

99% of people who have their phones stolen are waving them around on the street kindly offering them to those less fortunate. It would be rude not to take them.

It would indeed! Love it.

In Chapinero there are or were casas near the Transmilenio stops particularly Calle 63 and Flores. But Marly, Calle 57, Calle 72 and Calle 76.

I will be talking a walk here. Hopefully with you.

All these guys are making it out to be harder than it is. Just don't be stupid. Who cares if they know you're a foreigner. You won't be the only foreigner there. Its true you can spot them a mile away. Theres just something funny about them. But who cares. Don't be stupid. Don't bring more money than you can spend in 1 night. 200 cop is more than enough for santa fe. Don't bring valuables. If someone holds you up with a gun or a knife. Give them what you have amd walk away. So you've lost your 60 bucks and your hopefully cheap phone. Don't bring an exprnsive phone. You can get a good phone for whatsapp for 150 bucks these days. So you've lost your phone and cash. Shit happens. But unless you're stupid you should walk away okay. One more thing. Don't drink. Helps with not being stupud.

You are not being condescending. We are all adults here and everyone speaks from their own experiences. Totally agree with all points you mention. Money, phone not getting drunk. I am naturally cautious. This being my first time and the general reputation of some parts of the South America here in the US. We sometimes have a false sense of security here in the US. Even though I live in the DC area and I remember a time here when this was the murder capital of the country. Thank you for keeping it real.

Just want to add. Not trying to be condescending. I've done plenty of stupid things in my life. Which I'm lucky and happy to have lived through.

No. They won't. They will spot that you're not a native from 2 blocks away. Skin color gas nothing to do with it. Your body language will be all wrong. You'll walk wrong. You could be fluent in Spanish, with 2 Colombian parents, but if you've spent your whole life in Boston you'll look like someone from Boston.

Fair points. I am brown skinned so they may even take me for a native (until I open my mouth). I will work on my Spanish 101.

Where exactly do you get the daytime Chapinero action? Which intersections? Thank you in advance.

Get a hotel, at least you'll know what you're getting. Also, you don't need someone to hold your hand in Santa Fe. I've been there solo multiple times and never had a problem. I wear sneakers, jeans and a t-shirt. Don't try to look like you're on guard, then you'll stick out. I don't know why people overthink this, or think they have to get online for a lay. Just be confident, walk around and do your "shopping", and then take your girl to a love motel in the area (she'll know where to go), and put down the GD phone. It's as simple as that. Next, don't come to Colombia without knowing at least basic Spanish. You don't want to rely on an electronic device to communicate. Put in the effort and you'll be rewarded.

Hi all,

First, I want to thank all of you who contribute here. This is what makes this awesome. I am a newbie on this board (sent in my $25 last week to get the subscription) but have mongered in US and the Middle East before.

Will be traveling to Bogota for the Thanksgiving weekend and really looking for some relatively few but good experiences that may include the whole night.

Still can't figure out between staying at a hotel or an AirBnB. Most properties I checked have the additional guest charge of 60 mil per guest. AirBnB's may not be as safe as the hotels (I could be wrong).

Have read the forum and the FAQ but still hesitant to do the Santa Fe tour unless I have a wingman with me. I know practically zero Spanish and find using the translator on the street a bit awkward.

Would appreciate some thoughts on agencies used by others here or independent ladies they can recommend.

Thanks in advance.

Go to the main Colombia page and scroll down to the lower section it is down there. Great info and I used it my first time in Bogota, I still have not been to Santa Fe but I travel solo and the daytime Chapinero action was good for me. Maybe this next trip in Sept I will venture down there, I do like me a pretty vene.

I can see her getting an odor as it appears she may be more escort than SB. It seems like she has said yes to every guy who reached out to her. The reason I said that she is SB material is that she speaks English, is attractive, is fashionable, pretty much will do whatever you want in the sack, no time limit IMO, and she was fun to hang with.

As for the ones I kept to myself, all but one and she lived 2 hours from Bogota, were working and / or students, and they had much tighter schedules.

What was funny is I looked at her whatsapp photo a couple days ago and she is posted up with some "BF" type in her profile photo. SUCKER! She changed it back though, I guess maybe he caught on. I dunno without all that constent hair dye animie look, she really is basic. One and done.

[Elvis 2008]

Hhaha banged this one, you are right, her body is a little off and truth is, she had a slight odor. Not terrible but def musty. The head was super mechancial and she just had one speed that went up and down fast like a robot, not much passion but she took it in the face which is cool.

There's more flavors walking around over there than Baskin-Robbins.

LOL. Amen. Even something for Bruce, excuse me, Kaitlyn Jenner.
