Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2519266]Honestly some of these dating app threads are starting to look like a coordinated troll attack. It just doesn't seem real, even though I know it is because I've seen guys into it with my own eyes.[/QUOTE]Behavioral psychologists helped design these apps, with a certain demographic and personality type in mind, no different than the owner of Gustos.

This is not rocket science, and the higher you raise the monthly fee, the more you will filter out the smartest mongers and will get closer and closer to your ultimate target.

$100 this month pretty soon $200 then $500.

[QUOTE=Sangnyc21;2518772]Is it still 300 k on site? Heard fase dos is the same thing.[/QUOTE]Affirmative. Both going for 300 k.

[QUOTE=LivingFossil;2519272]Called Spirit, they said 1 hour is enough and that they will transfer my bags.[/QUOTE]FFL is Spirit's headquarters and is a small airport. But still you should rush to your gate because many times the gates change and you have to go to the other end of the airport.

FYI. Spirit is notorious for customers missing flights. They leave a very small window for transfers. If your plane is delayed by 10 minutes (weather or more likely someone getting kicked off for not wearing a mask), you have to cross a medium to large sized airport, or you mistakenly go to the wrong end of the airport you can miss a flight.

You should be fine since it is a small airport.

[QUOTE=DoneDeal;2519367]Plenty of beauties and action in Cartagena. But not the style of action I like, I suppose? If Delirium / Dolce Vita had hotels attached like Fase II / La Isla, I'd like it more. Anyways, don't want to go on about it as this is not the CTG forum, but brief version is I eventually managed a 600 mil todo la noche deal from a sweetheart at Dolce Vita, brought her to my hotel and had a lovely time.[/QUOTE]I went to several clubs not in the old city. I like a small club named Angel, pricing is similar to La Isla, girl quality is on par with La Isla when I was there. Less than 10 girls, but I am the only customer. I had to get rid of my driver and went back alone. The girl that I went back for said "se fue" with a sad expression when she saw me again, and I took her to the room. She asked for a drink, the drink and the session is about 350 mil based on my memory. There is also a good hot dog or sandwich place across the street.

Albeit is was a connecting flight going in the opposite direction, it was a total gaggle with confusion at Customs and long waits, thankfully I have Global Entry, and upon arriving had to go to another terminal which took about fifteen minutes.

Hopefully everything will work out for the poster with the one hour layover, however Spirit is not going to tell a customer they sold a ticket too not to worry about missing a connection, IE; no problem, no worries, but what you have pointed out about them being not on time is a well known fact, especially coming from some where in the USA versus from Medellin, hence I would be very reluctant with a one hour layover with Spirit, but hopefully for this poster his layover will be sufficient.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2519031]There are not many. There are few. This is the extreme exception, not the rule. DOZENS (more than 36) of hookers have opened retail delivery businesses? Really?! Now if you had said pussy delivery businesses by putting their pictures on Tinder and Mileroticos then it would be believable.

You can not even say the population at large is fairly intelligent (and I am saying nothing of studying in a classroom). You most certainly can not make this claim for a bunch of Colombian hookers.

What Sang was originally talking about is not something the girls do because they are smart, but it is simply something they learned from trial and error. The least intelligent person can touch a hot stove 3 times and pretty much will not do it again. A chick bangs 3 young stud el cheapo mongers 3 times and 3 old fart big spender mongers 3 times then through trial and error she may decide to go mostly for the easy bigger money or figure out what to say to certain people to get the extra money. It has nothing to do with being smart.

I once worked with a young redneck guy and I could not give him enough money to convince him that the sun is a star. But he was damn good at selling what we had to sell and doing the job we had to do. Still, I would in no way classify him as either smart or intelligent. He just happened to be good at that one thing through repetition and trail and error.[/QUOTE]It appears at least some of them are smarter than you think. Nearly every day you're somewhere on ISG talking about all the free pussy waiting for you everywhere. Yet somehow those stupid hookers are able to get you to pass up some free pussy in favor of paying for their pussy.

[QUOTE=Osteoknot;2519173]Depending on what sketchy Internet source you use, and your definitions (bank holidays vs church holidays, etc) Colombia falls somewhere from First to Third for most national holidays of any country in the world. Seems like there is at least one three-day weekend every month, probably more than that since I believe the number of holidays is in the upper teens, not verified.

Random pics of my Numero Uno Girl and Novia, you have seen her at CatGirl before. She is up on the Family Pueblo picking coffee beans, perfect time for me to fly into Medellin under the radar and see the rest of the girls in my line-up.[/QUOTE]It averages out to every other week being a 3 day weekend in Colombia. Although a few of the holiday weekends are consecutive, so you aren't guaranteed a holiday every other Monday. There are 26 national holidays in Colombia.

[QUOTE=Fech75;2519350]OK. Just saw a youtube video about Gustos preparing for my Medellin visit and in the comments I see people talking about chicas asking for $150 USD and up in parque Lleras. Is this what is expected? If so, I might as well stay in Cartagena where they will all take $200 K COP. Some guidance please.[/QUOTE]You're talking 2 different things.

Gusto is one of the clubs in Parque Lleras. Girls working inside Gusto generally ask for 400 k and up. 400 k is roughly $120. Many girls inside Gusto will ask for $200 or more. You have 3 options, if you decide Gusto is where you want to find girls.

1. Accept the price.

2. Wait until closing time and offer a lower price.

3. Get WhatsApp numbers and negotiate with them the next day.

Aside from Gusto, there are many girls working the area in and around Parque Lleras, including inside other bars and restaurants. They will typically ask for 200-250 k, although some may ask for more or accept less.

Between Gusto and Parque Lleras you have access to about 1% of the available working girls in Medellin, and only for about 4 hours per night.

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2519322]It's nice to hear your landlord came through. There is an ATM in the Nutibara hotel ground floor near the lobby. New Life I'm pretty sure accepts credit cards. Break that Centro cherry.[/QUOTE]I don't like that particular ATM or Banco Colombia ATM in general. I tried to withdraw from that ATM 3 times. All appeared to be successful but no cash came out.

[QUOTE=SlapShot10;2519298] I have never seen Premier Plaza, knowingly, and didn't pull up the WorldTraveler map. I'll try to scope it, next time.[/QUOTE]It is on the same side as the church. You should see the entrance next to Tostao cafe.

Good tip.

Outside the clubs is a different story. You can get a girl hanging around the park for a decent price depending on the girl and time of the day and how long you want to meet up for. You can also try and get the whatsapp number form the girls at Gusto and meet them outside the club and I hear they will be more willing to meet for a lower price. Good luck.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2519300]So out of curiousity, where was this apartment located, how big, and how much a month. Was this thru an agency or something thru Airbnb.

I remember once renting an apartment near the intersection of Calle 10 and Avendia Poblado right behind the Carulla that had an excellent view and after doing the walk thru discovered stained sheets in the Master Bedroom and no Cable service to the flat screen in the living room. And I complained and they made everything right, yet lesson learned you have to check everything even the plumbing to verify there's hot water before accepting occupancy, yet the owners can be assholes, and not do stuff, and then you have to fight them to get your money back, hopefully they will take care of everything for you without any problems.[/QUOTE]Laureles, 170 sq mt, 2br/3ba, 1 balcony / 2 terraces, jacuzzi, office, laundry room, CA King, A/C, modern, 6.250.000/mo. I found it through an agency then went directly through the owner. Saved a penny. It was so F'd when I arrived, but they've done a good job since then. It honestly just needed some one with a vagina to walk in and make a list. Which is weird, because I have sent about 6 lists, by now. I guess, a woman could have made a single list. Anyway, I had a giant bag of shit show up for the kitchen, today, by domicilio. It was all stuff I messaged about, this morning. W / the is arriving after the weekend (upgraded from just the washer that is brand new here). Outdoor furniture on the non-jacuzzi terrace would be nice. A BBQ would be nice. A few other little things that I'm confident will get straightened out. The one idiotic thing is that the jacuzzi is on the master bedroom terrace, instead of the office terrace. The office terrace is bigger and with a better (corner) view. The days of 2020 quarantine prices are gone, I'm afraid.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2519336]I don't see Slapshot breaking that El Centro cherry anytime soon, so I'm not holding my breath. But God forbid if he actually partakes one of these days. It might be a day that goes down in infamy for him, but hopefully not![/QUOTE]I don't think New Life counts as Centro, per se, but if it does, I want some fucking whiskers! I'm about 0-for-8 career in Botero sweeps. I keep trying, though.

[QUOTE=Nounce;2519510]It is on the same side as the church. You should see the entrance next to Tostao cafe.[/QUOTE]Thanks, I'll keep an eye out for Tostao, next time.

Enjoy your quarantine weekend. I'll be plastered to the couch, trying to ration my alcohol intake. As far as ATMs, I saw on Google Maps there was a ScotiaBank off Cl 33, west of UPB, but I think that's outdated info. The closest I can remember is on the other side of the autopista. If anyone knows of one closer to Laureles, please share info. Otherwise, maybe I'll just max-out every time I go to Lleras at the Exito Wow ScotiaBank ATM.

Arrived in Bogot via the Netherlands for my connecting flight to Medellin with a 2 hour window. Immigration queue even slower than Thailand so missed the connection but that didn't matter because KLM messed up the connecting tickets with Avianca and I had to get a new ticket for 3 hours later along with other passengers. To top it all off a girl who is a reliable source of info tells me she's leaving town because there is a complete lockdown tomorrow from 7 pm until Tuesday. What's app another BM to confirm which he has, my god 4 days locked in without as much as as sticky finger. I guess I better bang my brains out until 7 tomorrow. Does anyone else have any official info on this as I'm surprised no one's mentioned it.

By the way I was also asked for a Covid test by immigration.

There are 26 national holidays in Colombia.[/QUOTE]Small side note for the record here, some of the national holidays are regional, with a few not celebrated in all "departments" of the Country, and I think a few of the holidays also don't fall on a Monday's either.

Not that all this matters, but the Australians kinda take after the Colombians, I worked there for a while, and they had lots of holidays on Mondays, and then the unions would have holidays on Fridays, so they had lots of 4 day weekends.

Also since where on the subject, one of the ways to say a long weekend in Spanish is "el puente" which you will hear a lot of people in Colombia use for the all of the three day weekends, but "puente" also is the word for bridge. Important stuff to know, LOL!
