Cartagena Reports

Most people have a different take on these two cities. You can't go wrong with splitting your trip up because then you can experience both cities. But for me I could easily and have spent 10 days in Cartagena. I am not really into street walkers and strip clubs, definitely am not into casas. I prefer the way LDV and Elecktra along with other bars do it in Cartagena. I enjoy spending my days on the beach (Cartagena beach is nothing great but I still enjoy it) just being able to sit on a sandy beach and watch all the girls in there bikinis and drinking I can't get enouph of it. There are plenty of girls walking the beach if you want one for the afternoon. Usually after a day at the beach I feel pretty good and have had a nice amount of rum in me and I will head home and take a nice nap from say 6 pm to 11 pm and then I will get dressed and head out. I love that I can get a nice dinner all hours of the night and into the next morning here. I usually head up to Requisimo and eat or just head rite to LDV and get a table and a bottle of rum. From there I can relax and check out which girl I want for the night or just a couple hours. Because the party doesn't stop till 6 or 7 am or anytime before. I pretty much do this every day. Some nights I mix in the walled city and regular little bars (like a german bar in Getsemani (SP) but I neverr got bored and always mix up my days and nights. Its always an adventure. But I am a drinker and Party guy down there so it always flys by to fast. One other note its Colombia, not Columbia. Have a great trip and feel free to PM for any info I didn't answer.

[QUOTE=AlwaysHorny 2; 1344796]First, please guys don't flame me. I'm not a rookie, but I will be a Columbian rookie. I know the rules and I definitely RTFF. I have read about 50 pages each in the Medellin and Cartagena forums in preparation for my 10 night trip at the end of February. I'm wondering what the advantages of one over the other and whether I should split the time in the two locations or just stay in one location. I appreciate any feedback.

Thanks![/QUOTE]

If you're into the fun and partying till the wee hours of the morning, Cartagena is definitely more your destination.

Like he says, the beach is not the greatest, but it does the trick for watching and chattin pretty girls and soaking some sun.

Though you can party too in Medellin, it's not 7 days a week like Cartagena.

In Medellin you can definitely find cheaper PFP though, just depends on what you're into.

You could hit Cartagena first, party like a rock star for 5 days or so, if you're diggin the vibe and meet some keepers (muchachas) , then stay, if you want to beat feet and relax a bit more, see and feel a different vibe, go from the carribean beach to the hills, then move on to Medellin.

Be flexible, for me it works best.

Have fun!

Cartagena has Juan Ventura for apartments . Medellin has Bbrocs. Cartagena has a beach. Medellin has Parque Lleras. Cartagena has Tony. Medellin has Aussie Greg . Cartagena has La Dulce Vida. Medellin has Fase II . Cartagena has cheap street rats in Getsemini . Medellin has them in Mayorista. Cartagena the heat index is around 100 degrees f where as Medellin is mid 70s. If your looking for a fiancee don't go to Cartagena they are already engaged to Medellin dudes. Lmao. Flip a coin.

Nice!

My guide in Ctg sent me this funny thing and I'd like to share it with you fellas, please read below and see how you make sounds while reading English words and you can actually say something in Spanish LOL, it can be helpful though.

-—-—-

Boss I wanted to take the time to teach you a few common spanish words in a very funny way.

There's always something to learn or to try, many times you need to say some phrases in Spanish, but you don't know how to say them, don't worry, your problems have ended, if your are a gringo and you don't know how to speak Spanish, it'll be helpful in your learning. For an instance, we took from it some common phrases, just try and you're going to see the difference and how easy it is to speak Spanish.

(léanlo en ingles, esta genial!) (read in english to look for the sound of the spanish word, it's fun)

1. Boy as and are = Voy a cenar = I'm going to have dinner.

2. N L C John = en el sillon = on the armchair

3. Be a hope and song = viejo panzon = fat old man.

4. Who and see to seek ago = Juancito se cagó = Little John is a chickenshit. (jajaja. Coño que bueno)

5. S toy tree stone = estoy triston = I'm kind a sad.

6. Lost trap eat toss = los trapitos = the little rags

7. Desk can saw = descanso = (I) rest.

8. As say toon as = aceitunas = olives.

9. The head the star mall less stand dough = deje de estar molestando = stop bugging me.

10. See eye = si hay = yes we have.

11. T and s free o? = tienes frio = are you cold?

12. T N S L P P B N T S O = Tienes el pipi bien tieso = you have an erection.

13. Tell o boy ah in cruise tar = Te lo voy a incrustar = I'm going to insert it in you.

Be happy, Life's good!

Apts that are nice in Laguito are $200-$800 a day, only a few gringos will pay that but Colombians from Medellin, Bogata will, no problem. By the way, best weather in Cartagena starts late December until April, almost cloudless, high winds in Feb / March but nothing like the summer heat. Best chica time is early December, mannnny chicas from all over Colombia on break from school and need tuition or Christmas money.

Hell, you probably have to go to Bogota or Panama City to match that talent, not even in other parts of MDE.

I know some from Cartagena and barranquilla that are spectacular. It is surprising what is there if you ask for and don't settle. Problem is that usually the 9-10's think that they are "special" and the sex isn't, IMHO. There are even some escort services (haven't tried) as in all Colombia.

I'm not there to monger, but I walk thru that hotel a few times a day just for the eye candy. Some Nicas, and DR girls are also there so you get a good taste of different colors.

As far as CTG I have always had good luck finding hot chicas, but same as Costa Rica the price is a little more than I like to pay.

The " chica union" at the Del Rey boycotted my ass. I was sticking with my 70usd tln price with BBBJ and they weren't having it. Fortunately my boy took me to HLH and the girls were nicer and more reasonable. One older gentleman I was sitting next to at the Del Rey disappeared for an hour with two fine Ticas. He paid 240usd to the both of them just to eat pussy for an hour. Fuck the Del Rey and those rip-off broads.

So, following the recent posts. I have another question. With all the women coming up to CTG for the holidays, what nightclubs (not strip clubs) might you find the hottest / high-end, well-to-do, girls partying?

It's never been one of my regular go to spots, so I may just be going on off nights.
