Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=JohnnyO;2545029]I feel like I have to get this off my chest and this is no disrespect to you personally surfer as you are one of the few stand up guys here who I hope I can eventually buy a beer some day, but I feel there are far too many posts on here proclaiming imminent doom if you don't speak Spanish and how much of a hard time you are going to have.

Yes I know this topic has been discussed in depth and from personal experience I don't believe this to be the case, now I am not saying its going to be the same experience speaking little to no Spanish as compared to speaking fluently because that would be just silly but what I am saying, is that it is not as bad as some of the recent posts have been making out.

I was used to mongering in Thailand where I would say in my own way I was an expert, having spent over 3 years straight there all over the country and speaking and reading basic Thai. So on my first trip here I was going to be well out of my comfort zone and worried about what type of experience I would have because I just had words and phrases and when I landed I felt they were almost useless, because when someone spoke it went completely over my head and when I spoke my words and went over their head.

On my very first day in El centro and within the first 30 min of eventually finding ground zero I picked up my first chica and went to a $6000 cop room and had a great experience. Of course it will depend on the person and how they like to roll as well as their confidence level and what they are seeking to get out of the experience but as Blackman would say money is a universal language.

For me no matter what country I monger in and no matter what the language is, a lot will come down to the initial eye contact and using my own instinct on the type of experience I am likely to get from a puta.

Now this is specifically for the newbies coming to Colombia who speak little to no Spanish and have to resort to the translator for 95% of the conversation. There are 2 types of girls you will come across, those that will have no patience for your translator who will get frustrated and annoyed with you and those that will think its cute and will be happy to grab the phone and continue some sort of conversation and will even want to spend more time with you maybe even teaching you Spanish, those are the keepers.

Now I know what the regular experienced guys with years under their belt are thinking "Yes but you won't get the true genuine GF experience" again I disagree. From months of reading the forum prior to my trip I thought I would be only doing fuck and go girls and I never imagined I would have a similar experience to what I am used to in Thailand, that is a few regulars that like to hang out with me where they were happy with whatever money I gave them and then the fuck and go girls.

In fact I had one amazing regular that asked for absolutely nothing, even though I paid her $100,000 when she left. She stayed with me for days at a time, hand washed some of my clothes, had breakfast waiting for me every morning and fucked like a daemon. One day I gave her, her usual $100,000 and she kept shouting some word in Spanish at me, I had no clue whatsoever. Eventually I found it was sencillo which I now know to mean she wanted small bills. I always kept small bills to hand and gave her a mix of $2000's, $5,000's totalling around $20,000 and to my absolute shock she gave me the $100,000 back and off she went happy with her small bills after me banging her for 2 days straight.

Now I am not saying it was all plain sailing, I had my bumps in the road and some challenges but I worked it out thanks to some of the BM's here who were checking in on me on what's app and were happy to guide me so that everything came to in the end.

I know this has been a long post but I wanted to provide a detailed insight into mongering in Colombia for a first timer with little to no Spanish. Also it was my intention to do a long report on my first trip but instead I will do write ups like this on different aspects of my trip. My next report will be on my Colombia Cupid disaster where I thought I was going to be kidnapped.

Happy mongering everyone.[/QUOTE]So your point is that you can figure out how to get El Centro, find a girl, get your nut, then hold out a fistful of paper and ask her to figure out how much you owe her? When you visit another country, regardless of your cash and privilege you're a GUEST. Act like it. At least try to communicate at a kindergarten level. It's not hard, just inconvenient- not to mention everyone you run into will give you a little more respect for the effort.

My point is that if you speak little to no Spanish it's not going to be the disaster that some posts are portraying. You're also jumping to a number of conclusions without facts. I did not pick up every girl I banged in El Centro. Also you are assuming I made little to no effort in trying to speak or learn Spanish and if you have read any of my previous posts you would have noticed that I hired an itaki teacher prior to my trip as well as making small talk with chica vendors in La Sentanta and I picked up at least one non working girl in a bar, so before making assumptions and asserting your authority over others do your homework first as you have no idea how I act in Colombia.

He drinks Diet Coke. There was a brother in the Bogota forum the other day that does not speak Spanish, yet he made out better in Santa Fe than most folks that do. And he went at night time, when most mongers on this board are afraid to go.

My first time to Dominican Republic, Colombia, and Peru I spoke no Spanish. My first time to Brazil I spoke no Portuguese. My first time to Russia I spoke no Russian. My first time in Thailand I spoke no Thai. My first time to Vietnam I spoke no Vietnamese. I still had good times in those places.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2545040]So I've had no luck with Colombian Cupid and am wondering how I could get one of those Chicas to kidnapp me![/QUOTE]Switch to Latinamericancupid and your problems will be solved.

I'm in Medellin now for my first visit and I'd love to meet up. It's hard to coordinate unless you get a subscription and we can I'm.

[QUOTE=CaliSunGod;2545050]Hey all, first post in a while.

Ill be likely heading back to Medellin in a couple months. Wanted to see if any of the guys that live there are interested in getting a beer. The Tall Man, we chatted briefly a couple years ago and apparently have similar tastes there. My love of the centro and san Diego areas are what bring me back. Not a regular here so not sure what the etiquette is involving meetups. I'm pretty fluent in Spanish, comfortable on the streets, and would love to share intel.

Peace.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=ShooBree;2545057]Tourists are not expected and absolutely in no way obligated to learn the local language. The locals couldn't care less, so why do you care?[/QUOTE]Especially the locals who want to set up a non-Spanish speaking tourist.

I mean, why would a scammy chica you've just finished with at 1 am in the morning want you to understand her phone conversation as she tells her driver friend to bring the whole barrio to come and rob you, LOL!

[/QUOTE]So being Mr. Enternational, and the jetsetter you are, LOL, have you ever been to a Country where you did not have a good time mongering where you didn't speak the language?

Korea for me was fucked, what a bunch of assholes, and Japan was just a little better. Granted they speak a fair amount of English there, but even speaking the language would not of mattered.

China was okay though, as money talks there.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2544915]Interesting, but all of the cab drivers pronounce it with a see in it, as TaxCimetro.[/QUOTE]That's it!

Taxímetro (Not Taxmetro like this ISG word corrector changes it too 🤦*♂️ lol, but with the letter, i , between the syllables. (see the photo)

Pronounced just like you spelled it:

Taxsee'Metro. With an emphasis on the 'see'.

[/QUOTE]You're right!

Speaking Spanish not required.

Fun can certainly be had, just like you have.

Lots of other factors; personality, looks, chemistry, money of course, Lol.

Speaking Spanish, however, brings it to another level!

Pretty much common sense.

[QUOTE=Balboa;2545124]Pretty much common sense.[/QUOTE]Not all mongers have any, jajajaja.

But yes.

Lots of other factors; personality, looks, chemistry.

These help.

But I can agree I've been to places where practically no one speaks English, that isn't very fun (Russia).

I was so pissed off I jumped on an unplanned flight and flew to BKK and had the time of my life, and yes almost all putas speak at least some English in BKK.

[QUOTE=FunLuvr;2545014]Go to Cendiatra ([URL]https://cendiatra.com/sede-medellin-aguacatala/[/URL]) at Cra 48C #10, between EAFIT University and the Aquacatala metro station. They open at 6:30 am, and you can wait for the results, available in less than an hour. They also have a clinic just outside Laureles. I went there in February. The cost was 50 mil.[/QUOTE]I did mine at a local health center, called Idime. It is located across the Santa Fe mall, Poblado, fairly close to the Carulla. They charged 50 k cops and they give you the option to have a paper result or via email. However, they start doing antigen testing at 10 am. I was there at 10 but there were 2 people ahead of me, and I had to wait 45 min for my turn. I received my results in less than 2 hours.

Received a printed negative report in just under one hour.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2544921]So much for egging him on. He's seen some pretty one's he would do there, and he does pretty girls, but he just hasn't sealed the deal yet, and he eventually will, and I'm hopeful he has a good experience. Sounds like El Centro won't work for you which is usually the case if your basing your assessment of the Chicas on youtube videos.

The videos will give you an overview, but your not going to see much close up and personal as most videos are being taken secretly and your not going to get much close up footage.[/QUOTE]Jaja well he's already promised it will happen just not sure when. So no egging on needed I was just giving my prediciton for the outcome. Probably it will feel very transactional compared to what he is used to. I love el centro for the casas, people watching and cheap food but no I've never found something to pull there on the streets. I read the tallman's posts in amazement wondering where he finds those hot chicas. Probably just a result of time invested. Good for him!

[QUOTE=Gbaby32;2545051]After hours of searching I believe I found the perfect airbnb jear "calle 70". I have yet to re search that on the forum but It stated its near many bars restaurants mall ect. How much cash does one usually bring I plan to stay for about 10 days to really experience Medellin and what it has to offer.[/QUOTE]If you're referring to the San Peter Apartments, it should work fine for you.

I usually bring about $200 of emergency cash. I use my ATM card for whatever cash I need. Usually you will get a better rate than a money exchange, depending on the fees your bank charges. I personally budget for spending $100 per day and plan for $150 daily. Of course it depends on how you roll, but anyone except for the highest rollers can experience all they can handle for under $300 including lodging.
