Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=Kavin76;2275180]I arrive in Medellin in a few weeks. I have never been there before and wanted to get a few thoughts from everyone. BTW, my Spanish is limited to last minute flash cards for 30 days. Not the best.

((I recommend that you get the DVD collection of the telenovela "La Munecas de La Mafia," the one with subtitles. The actresses are gorgeous, a lot of it was filmed in Medellin and Bogota, the storyline is good, the production values are excellent. You will learn the local dialect and idioms. Oh, did I mention the actresses are gorgeous?))

- What is the best way to grab a cab to get to the El Poblado area from the airport without getting ripped? What is the average rate in pesos?. Also, if I am stuck on the street waiting to meet someone to get into the apartment I rented, am I going to be a bulls eye target rolling luggage and a bag around on the street in the afternoon? Haha.

((At any given time, there are a few people rolling luggage, or worse, walking around in sandals and with one back pack on their back, and the other on their chest. Afternoon is fine. That neighborhood is fine. Just limit your exposure and get that loot into the apartment, pronto. That is when you are most vulnerable. Have the company know you are coming. Heck , they might be even waiting for you, as they might wait until the last minute to clean out the apartment from the previous tenant.))

- I am staying right around the Carrera 43 A & Calle 10 crossing in a apartment. Is the walk from there to the Parque Lleras area safe at late night / early hours for a solo American?. It seems like such an easy distance, but if I am dressed up, is a cab best?

((It's a safe neighborhood. I've stayed in apartments there.

Be observant. If the streets are crowded with regular people, local people, walking the same streets, and you do not stick out by being dressed differently, wearing jewelry/watches/etc., flashing your cash and expensive cell phone, you will be OK. If you the streets are deserted, take a cab. Sure, it is a short distance, and you will pay the cabbie the minimum even if you did not reach it, but it might be worth it. Heck, sometimes you don't need the exercise and you don't want to walk the hill. Sometimes, that $2 cabfare is what saves you from being victimized.

Don't carry anything you are not willing to give up at gun point. Get a second passport that is limited to travel to only 2-3 of your top mongering destinations. Yes, a 2nd, 3rd, or even 4th passport that is good for a designated country or two are available. Bring two passports, hide one, put the other in the safe. You do NOT want to lose your passport and have to go to the embassy in Bogota to get a replacement.

After a couple of times of drinking or dining in LLeras, you will realize that does not have anything to offer you. The chicas working the park have crazy price expectations, and some of them are age traps. Besides, if they get back to the room and they rip you off, what recourse do you have? FaceBook, casa girls, club girls, even the online ad girls, you have some feedback and a way to keep them honest.))

- Are there any rooms "by the hour" or for $10-20 if I need to make a detour in this area? Seems I may not want to bring everyone back to my apartment for safety. If there are Street girls in the area, I'the assume they have to go somewhere.

((Just two metro stops away, or a 5-10 minute cab ride, are the short term hotels around the Mayorista. Clean, comfortable, not too expensive.))

I have 11 days in Medellin and then I return to Bogota for 6 days and then head home. I am excited to see what happens.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Dennisr35;2275903]I've been to Medellin, Colombia back in 2007 for a year. Not bad, and food was good, but now I would no longer go back to Colombia. The legislation regarding porn and prostitution has got to harsh for my liking. Child porn is now 10 to 20 years in prison. Being with an [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord902][CodeWord902][/url] hooker can buy you in for 19 to 37 years. Back in 2007 there was no such law.[/QUOTE]Or you could just fuck adults like a normal person.

The hardest part about communication will be understanding what other people are saying.

[QUOTE]- I land in Bogota. I regretted not flying into Medellin, so I made a jumper flight to Medellin about 3. 5 hours after I land in Bogota. Anyone see a problem getting through customs in that time and onto my vivaair flight to Medellin?[/QUOTE]Getting through customs in Bogota should only take 30 minutes or so. You should have plenty of time.

Haha.[/QUOTE]First stop at an ATM (marked "Cajero") and withdrawal some Colombian pesos. When you exit the airport, look at the wall of the terminal. There's a big sign posted with the set rates for lots of destinations. I believe Poblado is 70 k right now. You'll see a line of white taxis. Go to the front of the line and ask "cuanto cuesta?" If he gives a price more than 5 k over the posted price, go to the next one and ask.

Calle 10 and Carrera 43 A is a busy, safe area. You should be fine. Just put your luggage against the building and stand in front of it.

At night you might want a long sleeve shirt or light jacket. Temperature will get to the low 60's. Depends on how you are with that temperature.

Walking to Parque Lleras is no problem day or night. It's slightly uphill, but not too bad.

I have 11 days in Medellin and then I return to Bogota for 6 days and then head home. I am excited to see what happens.[/QUOTE]Las Cabanas is nearby. Any taxi driver can take you there. Cost is 98 k for 6 hours. Farther away, but nicer for about the same price is Motel Ibiza. Once again any taxi driver will know where it's at.

In Mayorista there are some cheap ones that charge 16-17 k per hour. No idea on cleanliness or quality.

Keep your valuables locked or hidden away. Don't leave the girl unattended at any time. Don't go to sleep while she's in the apartment. Don't shower, unless you shower with her. Don't pay her until it's time to leave. Don't let her fix you a drink. If you drink anything with her, don't leave her alone with your drink.

If you pick her up in the park, ask to see her cedula. The Colombian cedula looks similar to a US driver's license. Front left is a picture. To the right will be her full name. On the back is the date of birth. The card is sort of a dirty white color. Compare the picture to the girl. It's common for girls to borrow a cedula. If she doesn't have a cedula it's safest to assume she is too young.

If I remember correctly, the Venezuelan cedula is red and white and I think all the information is on the front.

The street girls in the area are hard to come by before 11 pm. Between midnight and 1 am is prime time. There are usually a few across from the Medellin Beer Factory, or you can find them in most of the discos. Be wary of girls working on the more deserted streets around there, or girls that some guy tries to offer you. Also be aware of 2 girls wanting a 3 some. Those are situations with too much risk.

[QUOTE=IguanaSix;2275965]What kind of condom are you using? One whose basic design has not changed since the 19th century?

Try the new female condoms. An extra dab of lube on the inside and you'll be slipping and sliding like you were going bareback. I like a few drops of water and / or an edible lube. Female condoms are also great for 3- and 4- ways: each gal gets their own condom, so you can go from chica 1 to chica 2 to chica 3 without taking off or putting a new condom. Also, if you lube with a nice flavored edible lube, you can pull out, get some oral, and then go back in.

I often get resupplied with these for free when I go to the free clinic for my 90 day tests. Your local Sam's Club or Walmart can order them for you.

A few years ago, me and a favorita went downtown, a medical office building en el centro, and got tested. I think we went in on Thursday and got our results Monday.[/QUOTE]I've tried almost every recommended condom out there. If its the first fuck of the day I'm ok, but it still takes 30 minutes of going at it to have an ok orgasm. If I'm not using a condom I can climax as many times as I want. I remember I got a casa girl to go bareback for an extra 50 mil. I went back to her about 7 times that day. Even with the extra fee it was only 100 mil a session which is like $30. I just don't want to use condoms anymore as it feels infinitely better without them. I get checked every month, clean myself thoroughly after the fact, choose girls who look relatively clean, and ask to make sure the girls are on birth control. I know its risky but if I have to use a condom I would rather not fuck at all.

[QUOTE=Wolf662;2275520]FYI for future trips or anybody else:

When you get to Parque Arvi walk to the road, go 100 ft left and wait (or get on) the brightly painted old ford Jingle bus, it's free and will take you to the entrance (small fee) to the neat part of the park, nature walk, butterfly garden, open air restaurant, lake, walk around the right side of the lake and it will take you to the rental rowboats, can be a fun day there.

The biggest difference between Fase II and La Isla / The Girls would be Fase is a 1/3 cheaper (190 k Vs 300 k).[/QUOTE]Wolf,

Haven't found this info before my trip anywhere. They haven't mentioned this at their information booths either. Thanks for the info and will help the future ARVI visitors.

Regarding the more price at La Isla, I would pay more for more / guaranteed choices (for the type of girls that I like) than guessing / waiting at the other places.

BTW, I read all your reports before my trip, very informational and detail enough for anyone visiting MDE (It's my choice that I don't visit several of those areas).

Betafin.

And that entails switching positions and what not. The second time I quite often have to resort to our magical blue friend.

All I am saying is: enjoy and don't risk God knows what for the sake of busting a nut. I agree with the previous comments, no session is worth the potential worry and downfall. No matter how good it is.

P.S. Have you tried getting condoms from Europe? Durex has been testing some very interesting and "extra feel / thin" products out there. Just saying.

I see this as a win / win situation. You don't have to worry about getting caught and punished and Colombia and the rest of us don't have to worry about you.

Anyone know this girl named Sofia Velez on FB? She's got like 6000 followers on FB and is friends with some prepagos and she posts random stuff like 20 times a day.

I think you have convinced yourself that you can't come wearing a condom. Have you tried psycho therapy? Talking to somebody may not be a bad idea. You don't have to mention about banging hookers, if it makes you uncomfortable. Just say that you have trouble climaxing if not wearing a condom, and you would like to be able to have safer sex.

When AIDS broke out and I started using condoms around 1991 I had difficulty coming but there was no turning back for me. Eventually I adapted such that today I come easier with a condom than when I first started using them.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2276073]Or you could just fuck adults like a normal person.[/QUOTE]Thank you. What a f--ing moron. Mods should take the next step and ban that profile.

Could you give us some more info on these college girls on avienda 33? Is there certain places working girls are hanging or just at the random bars? Bc there are so many bars lol

[QUOTE=GMan076;2275566] will likely check out the college girls posted on Avienda 33 on Saturday night. [/QUOTE].

"Hola" and "Cuanto" will not cut it with college girls, unless they are putas posing as "college girls".

In Brazil I found zero bareback and probably for good reason -- they went through a massive AIDS epidemic. Well, the first two fucks were alright but needed to be finished manually with condom off. The third one was amazing and came quickly while using a condom.

Damn that brazilian ass is the best. One garota I did doggy style and the entire session was me going like woody wood pecker. Felt great even with the condom on.

I haven't used a condom in Colombia in a while but I also only fuck a handful of chicas every year now. Limit the amount of partners and hope for the best.
