Poblado most dangerous for Gringos.
[QUOTE=Surfer500;2486901]Good advice about carrying a burner phone versus your smartphone on you. The area you described, Calle 10 either coming up from the Poblado Metro Station, or down the hill from Parque Poblado is one of the busiest streets in Poblado for both vehicles and pedestrians, it's the major gateway into Poblado off of the Autopista. There's always lots of congestion and people walking on Calle 10 during the day and into the evenings. Sounds safer perhaps with so many people around in such a busy area at 3 PM in the afternoon that the thought of somebody trying to rob you wouldn't happen in broad daylight. Wrong.
Typically, myself included, is that you get hit when you least expect it.
It's good you posted this, as we need a constant reminding that besides the Chicas, there are some very brazen thieves out there![/QUOTE]Also good to remind guys who think sacred Poblado is so great.
I have heard of a few gringos killed in Poblado but none in Centro.

[QUOTE=ColombiaLover;2487097]While no way for me to know for sure, I felt the same. He was just too over the top. Almost like reading fiction. I kept imagining some silicone valley geek who never got any in the USA Fleeing to Colombia for satisfaction. Of course, had I known about Colombia when I was in my 20's and 30's, I would have done it too. And saved the hassle of dating!
Will be interested to see if he re-appears.[/QUOTE]It's interesting, in that SJobs posts while supposedly in Medellin up until mid March seemed realistically possible, believable, and a bit audacious, and I would constantly call him out on stuff besides Blakman and others, and upon him returning to the USA, his posts become delusional, and totally beyond belief with his obsession to return.
I'm recovering, will report back soon
Guys,
I just opened up this site for the first time today, I saw my name mentioned here and there. Sorry I don't have the mental capacity to read through all of it, but I will do it soon. I had back to back foursomes with some of my favorites since Saturday night, tonight I have a business dinner, after that with two super hot 19 year-olds for tln. I haven't stepped outside of my apartment since I got here, except to go buy with my girls (I normally just stay in the car and enjoy the view of the city).
To answer some questions about getting into Medellin, you need a PCR test that cost 200 dollars, just google it. Fill out the form online, it will speed up the immigration line. They didn't ask me for any app.
All I can say is that Medellin is definitely heaven for me, but sadly I think I've gotten too carried away, I received two complaints from the building manager about music, and girls wearing too little clothes coming in and out of my apartment.
