Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=TedFerguson;2668549]Howdy, I'm visiting Medellin in a few weeks for the first time and had a few oddball questions. I'm trying to focus on using SA and aim for some higher quality chicas.

- Do any of you worry about putting your income / net worth and the risk of kidnapping or extortion? Should I dial those numbers down or am I overthinking it.

- Anyone try flying in a girl from a neighboring city? Flights seem pretty cheap at maybe $50 round trip. Thinking of seeing if we vibe on video and then fly the girl in.

- Do any of you use cheap burner phones to reduce the impact of getting mugged? Again, might be overthinking it. Please excuse my silly questions.

This board is a great resource.

Thanks, Ted.[/QUOTE]I've used SA the last couple winters in Medellin. I always report the lowest income and lowest assets catagories which I believe are $100 k because I don't think the real chicas selling ass are even looking at that so why report more and attract unwanted attention. Probably chicas looking for an actual arrangement are evaluating that info but I'm only looking for "pay per meeting".

A common scam is a chica telling you she lives a couple hours away and wants to come and meet you but has no money so please send some. I know guys that have donated money to chicas this way. If it's a $50 flight I'd offer to book her the ticket and meet her at the airport upon arrival. But don't send her any money not even for the taxi to her local airport. You will never see her.

Regarding phones I only use a cheap burner phone when I'm in Medellin. One that I don't care to lose or give up. You can buy a very decent phone locally for about $100 worth of pesos. SIM cards and data are dirt cheap. And it's nice to have a disposable whatsapp number rather than your home phone number imo.

[QUOTE=TheMan31;2668582]Uncovered for less than 50 -60 k cop. I think you need to check your reality.[/QUOTE]Or you could just read the forum. It's been reported several times, some within the past few weeks.

The last time I did BBFS in Medellin I paid 100 k for a Facebook girl, she was with me for 2 hours and it was in Christmas Eve (2017). I didn't even ask for BBFS. At the time the going rate for Facebook was 150 k + 20 k for taxi. She was quite a good performer. She was also the reason why I no longer do BBFS with hookers.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2668619]I left the LOL after my post. LOL.[/QUOTE]I should add that if you're taking a candy girl to the Charlee, you should at least spring for an Uber Black.

[QUOTE=TiaVoyage25;2668641]Gentlemen,

I will first give the necessary disclaimer that most of my reports on this forum are either trip reports, tips for mongers, or conversational pieces. You may note in my message history that I rarely, if ever, ask for advice. Most of the time I prefer to fly by wire and figure things out as I go after RTFF. That being said, I am in need of some advice from the esteemed members of this particular subforum. Due to a last minute change, I suddenly have some free time and will get a week to head to Colombia, as my original plan was to go to Brazil but that fell through due to some logistical inconveniences.

I have been to Medellin. I enjoyed Medellin, for the most part. My last time there, however, was not pleasant as I was staying at the M when it was raided because they were operating a bar without a license or some along those lines (aka they didn't pay their bribes). That essentially ruined the trip for me and I relocated to El Poblado where I spent the rest of my short time in the city. Most of the time I go to Bogota because I know the lay of the land and where to go, but today I had an itch to change my trip from Bogota to Medellin (still making up my mind depending on the results of this post). My understanding of RTFF is that SA and FB are the primary methods of mongering, with La Isla, New Life and Centro girls as secondary. The girls at the gringo bar in Park Lleras are a tertiary and expensive option.

My predicament and request. I have a week and I want to potentially experience Medellin but don't want to spend time figuring it out on ground. This past summer, I wrote a "Newbies Guide to Rio" which made it to the reports of distinction and I had a ton of fun just figuring things out as I went. I do not have the time on ground to do that and RTFF has only gotten me so far. I am requesting two things from the members of this forum..[/QUOTE]1. That place doesn't exist in Medellin, or if it does it's the best kept secret in Colombia. Some people will tell you their favorite spot is best for you, but I've checked out almost all of them and they've all been hit or miss. Unfortunately, the best option (IMO) in Medellin is Facebook. Many people disagree. It requires some prior planning. On the plus side, once you've done the work you have an inexhaustible supply of women. That's no help now.

2. I'd go to where you already know how to find what you're looking for, Bogota. Why risk wasting time overcoming issues in Medellin when you only have a week? Save it for when you have more time and can establish a workable game plan.

[QUOTE=SankarShetty;2668603]Appreciate the input. Food scene is a major attraction for Lima but a week trip will require significant prep and I think a semi work trip will not work.

Intrigued by Mexico City, looks like there is a good street scene but are there good casas in the city?

In the end, lets hit Bog this time, I think despite lousy weather and traffic, the wealth of info. On this board may turn this in to a quick hassle free trip.

Will report back with a trip report.[/QUOTE]Unless it has changed, Twitter is a common source for women in Mexico City. Some of the guys on the Mexico City board can help you. I really enjoyed my very brief stopover there.

[QUOTE=LuckyNuts;2668656]A common scam is a chica telling you she lives a couple hours away and wants to come and meet you but has no money so please send some. I know guys that have donated money to chicas this way.[/QUOTE]I don't know if it is a scam or mfs are just stupid. The first thing I say to a chick after Hello, is what part of whatever city she has in her profile that she lives in. Today alone I have talked to like 10 chicks on Cupid that do not live where their profile says. One chick's profile said she lives in Medellin. I ask what part. She says why. I say because a lot of people say they live somewhere but they do not. In the midst of this she changes her profile to say Bogota then says she lives in Medellin but Colombians are scared bla, bla, bla. Wherever you are going there will be too many women to worry about one that is in a city that you are not in.

This is strictly a newbie post with some tips to help with something you might not have thought about. Note, the Spanish phrases may not be exact, but they should be reasonably close.

1. Some of the US franchises you'll find are Subway, McDonald's, Burger King, Starbucks, KFC and Dominos. The food there is pretty close to what you're used to.

2. If you go to an upscale Colombian burger restaurant, your burger will probably be cooked rare, medio. Ask for "tres cuartos" if you want it medium. I never learned the local term for burn the fuck out of it.

3. Colombian food is not spicy. Many people consider it bland. You might not care for it. There are some good soups you might enjoy.

4. Sushi, Italian and Mexican food in Colombia are okay, but probably not as good as your favorite place back home.

5. You'll likely be unimpressed by steaks in Colombia.

6. Service in Colombia is not what you expect. Once they seat you and hand you a menu they won't return, ever, unless you flag them down. Every time you need something you need to flag them down. If you accidentally set yourself on fire, you'll need to flag them down. Just raise your hand and catch your server's attention. On rare occasions you might need to set yourself on fire to get their attention.

7. To ask for your check, flag down your server and ask for "La cuenta. " You will probably be asked "en efectivo o con su tarjeta?" Are you paying cash or with a card? You will also be asked "deseas incluir el servicio?" Do you want to include the standard 10% tip? Your check will probably have 2 different prices on it, with and without the tip. Paying it is voluntary. You do not need to tip any extra. Also, if you're paying with a card do not give them your card. They will bring a handheld card reader to you.

8. There are a lot of fruits you probably aren't familiar with, this includes fruit juices. You might like some of them. If you order juice, you might be asked "en leche o en agua?" Do you want it mixed with milk or water?

9. A common drink served with meals is guarapo. It's made with panelsa (sugar cane extract), lime juice and water. If you like sweet tea you'll probably like it.

10. The giant things that look like avocados are Lorena avocados. They have less flavor than the Haas avocadoes.

11. The Colombian chain restaurant you should try is Crepes and Waffles, except it uses the Spanish word for and, which the text editor changes to "why. " The name tells you what is on the menu.

12. The small white disk served with your meal is an arepa. Some people consider it edible. There are other varieties of arepas which are edible.

13. Many restaurants offer a menu of the day. It comes with your choice of meat, beef, pork or chicken and sometimes fish, rice, a small salad, avocado, fried plantain, and maybe potatoes and or yuca. Yuca is for people who like eating the small white disk found in 12. The meal might also include soup or beans and will come with a drink, probably a choice between guarapo and some type of juice. The total cost is usually between $2-$4 US. Tip included.

14. The local equivalent of "enough food to choke an elephant" is called "Bandeja Paisa. " Five orders of Bandeja Paisa would have solved Matt Damon's food problem in "The Martian. " Check with your cardiologist before ordering.

15. The tap water in Medellin is safe to drink. Aguardiente isn't.

Always have a WhatsApp with the sim of the country you're in. Then delete it at the end of your vacation and keep the girls you like in your contact list. I set up a date on mileroticos, which is a dumpster fire of a website, she then asked me to send her a deposit after we set a time. I told her no and I'm canceling our appointment. She starts begging me not to cancel. I then get a what's app message with a guy with a shotgun in the picture to try and scare me. I didn't read the message so I don't know what BS it said in there. I then deleted the what's app. Lesson learned. Never use your real number or even google voice because your Google voice is attached to your real number.

It's the mistake I made on my first mongering trip to the DR. Instead of going to Boca Chica or Sosua, I went to San Pedro de Macoris, because there were 2 girls there I thought were worth it. The first one was a disaster and the next morning I cancelled everything and got my ass on the first bus to Santo Domingo and then on the next bus to Sosua. I was able to salvage the trip from there.

If you're a seasoned international traveler, you already know what works for you and how to make the most of any city. If it's your first time then keep it simple.

Guys need to keep it simple. It doesn't matter where the girl is. She needs to get to the guy. If she can't then a polite "we'll do it another time" is in order. Like Ariana Grande said "thank you, next."

I've noticed that a couple of the FB girls I've met post memes about their sexual likes and dislikes. I'd consider myself low volume in terms of the girls I see with an emphasis on maximizing quality. I always try to do a deep dive in profiles of girls I pull the trigger on to get a sense of them. One of the girls I saw last time A the camgirl posted a meme about how she liked to be teased with foreplay (slow buildup to DATY, kissing collarbone and around breasts before nipple etc). So I tried it to good effect and got lots of compliments afterwards. The girl E I saw on Saturday posted about not liking beards for DATY. Well, while I do my homework, I was not about to shave off my beard. She asked me to go down on her and lo and behold she was pulling away and laughing after a while. I might try a washcloth around the beard when I see E today. So it's worth doing your homework. I've also seen posts about hating anal, liking girls and all kinds of random, stuff on chicas walls and stories. Both A and E did not ask me for money upfront. I wouldn't bother putting in the time to research a hardened pro asking 200 plus "por una hora".

My guide today took me down to centro and while yeah, I definitely saw some diamonds in the rough, raunchy in just the way I would like very much. I was immediately getting sized up by the locals, they were literally pointing at me. Tried to dress down, old jeans and a tee shirt but I am a fat gringo, no hiding it. My guide saw something and he got really uncomfortable and said it's time to go. Like I said it's too bad, some really nice skanky ones, just perfect for the old high risk raw dog. I like taking chances with my life. In bed. Not getting rolled by a gang.

Anyways I got a FB girl coming after my rappi delivery of lube, Cialis and (hopefully won't have to use them) condoms. The FB leg work has paid off so far as I can tell, my messages are blowing up as soon as I announced I am here.

I will keep you all updated.

Remember, Manrique is our little secret hehe. Ive partied there numerous times pre-pandemic and a few times since. I remember hitting up club Praga when there was an 8pm curfew about a year ago. All music and partying stopped and then moved over to a makeshift area, kept the party going till midnight. Ordinary Medellin rules and laws dont apply in Manrique haha. Zenith is def the go to spot now. Its remodeled and lots of young and beautiful chicas, but also lots of young cats trying to spit game and yes many wear the same fit : jeans, graphics tee and a hat. I just love how you can smoke, snort, and sniff all you want in plain sight. Being a chino with a Cali type style/attitude, I def got lots of eye fucks/stares in a good way. But I’m always with amigas, so didn’t need to do any hunting. The contrast to that would be La Chula in Las Palmas. I was there partying it up this past weekend, it attracts a higher class of people and obviously lots of gringos and even chinos. Man, I need to go back to hiding in the northern suburbs. Medellin is officially overrun by gringos.

[QUOTE=JustTK;2668560]Went up to Manrique last week for the first time since about 1 yer before the pandemic started. My god, KI hardly recognise the place! So many changes. Seems like property in Manrique is a good investment right now. Lots of big new buildings going jup, loads new restaurants and clubs, many of the smaller ones closed down.

I went to Zenith. Loads of cute and available girls there. It does make me laugh though, watching the locals. They are like clones of each other, all dressing and styling the same way, dancing the same way, same mannerisms. Still, I had a lot of fun. Prices have gone up, but still a fraction of the price of a similar night in Poblado.[/QUOTE]
