Glad to be wrong on this one!
[QUOTE=Tottem;2717222]For me I always check my health by sitting down and looking at my belly. If I can see the contours of the muscles in the abdomen then I am good. If you sit on a chair legs 90 degrees and look at your belly and it is just a straight line or in worst case a convex surface then you should reconsider your habits. Everybody has a six pack if the do not carry excessive amounts of fat over it. 2 months ago I stopped eating everything that has added sugar and all fried things, did not change anything with my exercise, many a huge difference.
Anyway we met today in the elevator at nutibara. I was going up you were going down. I have shaved head and look easter european. Your pants and hair really give you away.
One thing that nutibara has over Dorado La 70 and Vivre is really good ventilation. It does not feel like artificial airconditioning, is more like a breeze weeping the room. And when you set a certain temp is gets there quickly. Also the amount of light that gets into the rooms is nice. Really enjoy the rooms. The wifi is connection is terrible though, speedwise it is actually good. I get 19 Mb/s when doing a test. Osteknot I remember you mentioned wifi extender in another thread. Beds are my opinion good. My conclusion when I looked into hotels in Medellin is that for the money you pay at Nutibara you can not get any better. If someone has another opinion please enlighten me. Yes the hotel has seen it's best days long ago and everything is run down and clearly needs a renovation but it still has it's charm. The height of the roof inside the rooms does a big difference also. You can say the rooms are very "airy". Hard to beat the location also. I do not think is is very noisy as someone mentioned. Very nice staff.[/QUOTE]Keep up the strong work and say hey if you see me again or I will try to do the same. I share your sentiments about "The Nutti" and I definitely need and use a WiFi Hotspot while here.
When I sit down I can also still see the six pack!

Jajajajajaaaaa.
The fact that you took my joust and jest in good spirit and fun means you passed the first test and we can be ISG friends. Next time you see me, give a shout-out. Don't know how much longer I can hang here in MDE. Catgirl and I might be heading to the mountaintop to accompany an order of construction materials, today. We are building our dream country-home on a mountaintop near Buritica, a super nice little quaint pueblo actually worth an overnight trip for anyone to visit and there is bus service to there from Terminal Norte.
We will take the Vulcan moto to the base of the mountain, park it, and from there it is only 4-wheel drive, or horseback if the road is washed out to our little construction site. We took the moto up the mountain one time and that was a mistake. The wear and tear on the moto of that one jaunt up and down the mountain was the equivalent of 6-months of otherwise "normal" driving. The most treacherous road I have ever been on. We have to carefully time delivery of our construction materials, which has been half the cost of the build, so far.
I was on some random currency conversion Web site last night
[QUOTE=Villainy;2717362]I noticed the same thing. Hopefully they fixed whatever it is and we get a 4,350 rate tomorrow.[/QUOTE]Among the information provided was the "best" and "worst" times in history to convert COP (Colombian pesos) to USD (United States dollars).
The best time was in the distant past, I think over ten years ago, the exact date doesn't matter for our purposes.
The worst time was listed as "four hours ago" and that record seems to be getting broken every day as of late.
The recent conversion rates of dollars to pesos is one example of where I truly hope we Keep On Keepin' On.
I have no idea where the ceiling is for this but for those of us with boots on the ground, let's enjoy the ride.
How many pesos am I legally allowed to bring out of the country with me?
I am not a huge clubber, but I've gone enough
[QUOTE=Orion4;2717351]Is there a particular spot where the girls speak English?
A lot of these reports seem to be from guys soloing clubs? Not used to going to a club alone, is that commonplace in Medellin?[/QUOTE]Yeah, the United States.
Do you mean clubs like discos or places like Baja Executiva where girls dance and do Pay for Play, you can fuck them there or take them back to your hotel or whatever?
If you mean the latter, sure go alone, the chicas are motivated to accommodate you as a customer and are used to using Google Translate. Or find a wingman who knows his way around Medellin and better yet, speaks some Spanish.
For discos, if you don't speak Spanish, I would not recommend going alone. Your best bet would be with a date and another couple, or a group of locals ideally where someone speaks some English, but that's not an easy order.
You can go alone to a disco, and you could even pick up a regular chica, but you will have to overcome deafeningly loud music, disorienting lights, and only communicating with body and sign language, and Google Translate in a difficult environs. Depends on what kind of game you bring to the table.
