Medellin Reports

[Mr Enternational]

As far as grabbing pros or non pros have you guys ever just paid in USD?? Instead of COP?? My thought was maybe they would be more pleased seeing that USD.

Why would you be giving money to chicks that are not hookers? You will be more ripped off trying to use foreign currency. That is why the gringo spots are fucked up these days. Guys have I guess thought the same as you and started an ugly trend.

Whenever you travel use local currency. Prime example 2 days ago in Mexico a chick asked me for $25. I said I only have pesos. She said 300 pesos. 300 pesos is less than $15. If you had paid in dollars then you would have paid almost twice as much as me using that pay in dollars theory. You are not on vacation to please chicks; you are on vacation for chicks to please you.

I've been on LAC and have a bunch of girls lined up also some that want to show me around and hopefully can turn into a fun time I am set to leave on the 18th and I am renting a air bnb.

I swear this happens to me too. I have sex with a pro once and its electric, then every time after doesn't quite match up. Its disappointing but I just came to the realization that each time will be different and satisfying in its own way even if its not as mind blowing or toe curling.

Probably about once maybe twice a year is when I find this zone of surreal sensuality and being totally connected with a chica on every level, but funny thing is later on I try to create this experience with the same gal again and well it just never can compare with the first awesome off the charts surreal experience. Go figure.

To be honest, it never occurred to me about buying an apartment in Medellin even though I've been going there 2-3 a times a year for the past 8 years. I'm not retiring anytime soon (just turned 40 this year), but after staying in Colombia for 3 months from Nov /2020-Feb /2021, I could definitely imagine myself living there full time. I have 2 passports so I can make use of 180 days each without needing a visa or becoming a tax resident. If all things go well, it'll just give me extra motivation to work harder and retire earlier.

I'll definitely keep you posted about how things turn out. At worst case, I'll still be in paradise for 2 months with or without succeeding in property purchase. And I'm not buying to get extra rental income because nobody fucking chicas in my place except for me haha.

Rice Rocket: You've given me something to think about. I have gone back and forth about buying or renting in Medellin. I am going to pass a month in Poblado in June, not because I would likely want to live in Poblado, but because I got a good deal on a monthly rental and want to see how I do passing a whole month away from my current home.

But the options you show are nice and the price is great. For me, spending that kind of money to buy a place would be reasonable, without any expectation of ever renting it out. I appreciate you sending along the videos. They both look nice and they are in the safer barios of Bello. It sure would be nice to be near the mall, to the bus state that takes you to Barbosa and other places, and to the hot chicas in Bello an in nearby barrios in Medellin. Let us know how it turn out. Maybe Ill PM you to inquire about the lawyer you found.

I'm heading back to MDE in about 2 weeks armed and ready to purchase a Bello apartment. I have done tons of research and retained the services of a reputable bilingual real estate lawyer. My Spanish is fluent, but not when it comes to Colombian real estate law and fine print. I'm giving myself about 2 months to get this done and will be looking at apartment complexes with pool / gym that are less than 5 years old or brand new construction projects that are move in ready within a year.

I'll be staying in Niquia and Las Cabanas neighborhoods the whole time. There's a reason lots of hot girls come from Bello and I'll be in the thick of it. Just remember, Bello is dangerous so don't come out here haha. Don't worry, I'll post chica stories to make my posts more entertaining. BTW, couple of the properties I'm looking at are below, less than 10 minute walk from mall and metro station. Around $80 k USD for brand new 3 bed /2 ba. Used and under 5 yrs old could be had for $70 k USD. Curfew or no curfew won't affect my mongering activities in Bello. Hope I can literarily own a piece of paradise! Wish me luck!

[The Tall Man]

My final lockdown in Medellin began at 10:30 AM on Monday, and lasted until 10:30 AM on Tuesday this week when I departed Medellin, and it wasn't a Government mandated lockdown, but a self imposed lockdown of debauchery.

My Tomboy and I spent 24 hours together, and it was like being on another planet, and going back in time on a time machine.

I felt as though I was over forty years younger than I am, and being with someone so sensous and loving at my age cannot be described with words.

The experience is etched in my mind, being totally priceless, and something I will always remember as long as I live.

I agree it is hard to describe but you know it when your in the middle of these surreal experiences and it really does set the bar for all others that will follow down the road.

To be fair your experience, my experiences, don't happen often, I should say they don't happen often enough but when they do I am like "damn I am one lucking dude."

Probably about once maybe twice a year is when I find this zone of surreal sensuality and being totally connected with a chica on every level, but funny thing is later on I try to create this experience with the same gal again and well it just never can compare with the first awesome off the charts surreal experience. Go figure.

Just my rambling thoughts laid out this Thursday late afternoon a few hours before we go into full lock down here in Medellin.

I am all set for the next 4 days, have enough food and drinks in my fridge to feed a small army for a month and also some sweethearts arriving or I should say that will be sneaking their way to my apartment over the weekend.

Much love and respect to all!

The Tall Man.

You could always stay in Manrique or join Ricerocket in Bello. LOL Wink. Curfews are not observed in those areas.

[SavePros321]

So what does this mean? Are restaurants open or only takeout / domcillios. I have heard that taxis are fine to get girls to your place? Can anyone in MDE NOW help me understand. I fly out Friday morning on Spirit. My biggest fear is being stuck in MDE.

I don't think anyone will be allowed to leave their homes, so not sure about getting chicas to visit you during a complete lockdown.

The author (Jeff) responded to a comment about going to the grocery store and the vet here on Medellin Guru:

"Hello Jeff. I am a Patreon member. I have 2 questions concerning the lockdown April 8-12.

1. I assume we will not be able to go to the grocery store. Will restaurants still deliver via Rappi, etc.?

2. I have a dog. I assume I will be able to walk my dog during the lockdown. Is there any maximum distance I must remain within my apartment area (i.e., within 1 or 5 km, etc.)?


Jeff: No leaving the home for grocery store.

Confirmed deliveries are permitted, taking pets to vet. Also, airports will remain open with passengers able to travel to / from airports from this source. https://www.elcolombiano.com/antioqu...uia-BF14885325".

I've never been clear on what are the boundaries of Raudal. I've walked down on DeGrief many times a few blocks further than Conejitas. Down by where Bar Hilton is. Is that DeGrief?

Basically the NW and NE corners of Car 54 & Calle 53 (DeGreiff) with some more chicks going and up Car 54 on the left.

[Gbaby32]

A better question is, what's been your experience?

There are 3 areas where guys usually stay, Poblado, Laureles and El Centro. The Mansion is in Poblado. Poblado is also home to Parque Lleras and the club Gusto.

Poblado is the upper class area of the city. You'll find better restaurants, better hotels, more gringos and higher prices. If you're planning on going in the near future, your best bet is probably the Mansion. With the curfew in place you'll have an easier time getting what you want there, as a newbie to Medellin.

If you decide to stay in a hotel in Poblado, be certain of their guest policy. Some won't allow guests, others charge a high fee for each one.

Laureles is more of a middle class area. Prices are lower and the hotels aren't quite as nice. It's a nice area to stay in and it's closer and quicker to get to El Centro from there. There are also a few casas in the area, so there are mongering options.

El Centro is the original heart of the city. It's where you'll find the lowest prices for everything. Expect crowded sidewalks, noise, and passed out glue sniffers. It can be intimidating, downright scary to some.

Appreciate your information I am set to leave the 18th still have not canceled my trip yet and will be in a air bnb in Laureles.

El Colombiano is reporting a complete lockdown, from 8 pm Thursday to 5 am Monday.

From the Government of Antioquia full text of decreto: https://antioquia.gov.co/images/PDF2...1070001332.pdf.

And flyer with details.

El Colombiano is reporting a complete lockdown, from 8 pm Thursday to 5 am Monday.

A week ago on last Wednesday for Semana Santa the first lockdown / curfew within the last couple of months started with a 5 PM until 5 AM nightly curfew to last thru Sunday. Then it was announced over the past weekend that there would be a daily curfew from 6 PM until 5 AM thru the 19th of April, and now yesterday the announcement that there will be a complete lockdown until Monday as you mention.

To put things in perspective, I arrived in Medellin on February 25th and had been tracking every week the cases of COVID being reported, and what has been happening in the surrounding Countries, notably in Chile and Brazil, along with other Countries and started to get "spooked" as Medellin had now become the epicenter in the Country and I was debating to either stay or leave.

Upon entering into the lockdown last Wednesday evening, things basically became a ghost town after 5 PM, yet during the day I was able to go out, hit the pool in Bellen, and then go to EL Centro in the afternoon, so it wasn't that bad, except I didn't like being "confined" in the evenings.

Then on last Sunday I heard that Bogota was talking about a total weekend shutdown for the coming weekend just like in Medellin, and I started to get concerned in that I could not imagine being confined 24/7 in my apartment. And yes, I could get company to stay with me, but being confined, or just the thought of it wasn't going to work for me. So on Monday morning at 6:15 AM I went to Aqucatala, got tested, and then booked a flight home Tuesday evening, arrived Wednesday morning, and now, low and behold, a complete lockdown, but the handwriting was on the wall.

I know there are board members who live here permanently, so the lockdown drills are not new to them.

However I can see this as very challenging for others who are just visiting, as I suspect given the gravity of the situation with COVID, that the "new normal" as mentioned by others might be total weekend lockdowns for a while, and who knows, maybe something more drastic like before.

For guys visiting, I hope things work out for you, as this is a very sad thing that is occurring right now.

I was in Medellin in January during full weekend lock down and indeed during that time the things are quite boring as you are confined in your apartment or hotel and do not have activity. You will not have problems in bringing girls to your place if you have made any contacts on FB, SA or CC. But the centro, casas and strip clubs will be closed where there is action. All restaurants, bars, clubs will closed and streets empty. Only way to find food is through during curfew is through Rappy app. If you fly out on Friday, then you will be in curfew for 3 nights and 3 days by Monday things will be normal for another 4 days. Good luck.
