I know, the standard answer is the locals assume anyone here from another country is a potential target, but by blending in and not flashing cash and jewelry and not having ostentatious items in your casa, does that help?

A lot of gringos don't get this. I'm Asian also and I've never been robbed or had any bad situations. And I'll continue to go take certain precautions so that hopefully it stays this way.
But IMO I've seen too many gringos come here then fall in love with the lifestyle then move here because they're with women they couldn't possibly pull in the states. Not saying the case with you. And eventually all 3 that friends that I know moved here have been drugged at least once. One of them was drugged twice.
Yes maybe Bello is great for you now. But the odds will always be against you as long as there's no 0 on the other side.

I think it is supposed to be 10 days, and no one said anything to me about it when I re-entered from Mexico last week. I did get grilled a little more per customs than usual though but I think it was just because it was so damned slow at the airport. The airport in Monterrey was busy. The USA side may have been the slowest I have seen since Covid began. I suspect this was just the international part though.

I think we may have another SJobs type here again.
Move to Bello if you wish. Buyer beware, it will be a very humbling experience and I would never recommend that a foreigner stay in that area.
Be careful brother.

Posts: 309I have paisa friends that know lots of people in gang circles and in the drug trade. That shit doesn't even bother or scare me. I might even join them and create a chino cartel or a chino plaza haha. Kidding aside, Bello does get a bad rep, even more so from their fellow paisas. I took a Medellin girl out in Bello to party it up at a bar and she got all paranoid about being robbed or drugged and wasn't comfortable with me talking to random people because they were young, hot, and buzzed haha. Well, that was a mood killer because that place was popping with good music, hot chicks, cheap drinks, and even cheaper party favors. I had to finish her back at my newly renovated Bello apt I was renting for $18 USD a night. You guys can stay in Poblado / Laureles / Envigado, which doesn't really mean it's that much safer considering the recent robberies. Bello is not for the average MDE visitor, and probably not even for most MDE vets. But it's all to each his own and we all roll different and that's what makes MDE una chimba hpta! In the words of Pollo Negro. Chino Amarillo is out!

Sorry you don't like I sometimes throw an extra 2. 50 usd instead of haggling over the price of a pack of gum to fuck a smoking 19 year old.

She says 40 k, I got two twenties. Perfect. I know I say I usually just give 50 k but if I have the change in bills I take the deal.
But not fat at all. In gym clothes. Alejandra. She says 40 k, I got two twenties. Perfect. I know I say I usually just give 50 k but if I have the change in bills I take the deal.

This is typical of screwing up the price structure and raising prices. You got guys perpetuating the gringo attitude of -so cheap compared to home.
Just a couple years ago reports of mongers accepting the going rate of 15 and 20 k for a street girl then giving tips or rounding off or doubling because its -so cheap compared to home.
Another one is the -pay first mentality with street girls.
Yeh I know, its your money and blah blah but when street girls and casa prices increase to 100 k and 250 k for a quickie, and more reports of cash and dash loss of upper hand etc., look in the mirror and figure out why LOL.

Tonight, this very camera shy chica is as tall as me, probably would have a good shot at kicking my ass in a fair fight. Fortunately, she's a lover and not a fighter. Regular girl, cost me cab fare.
