Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=GauntMan;2728583]Arrived today at 2 pm but it wasnt until 4 pm that I was able to clear customs! The airport was crowded! We had to disembark via ladders outside the terminal. Climate is great, around 21 - 22 C. Will start pinging contacts after my initial milking by my driver girl. Will keep reporting later, have to stock on food supplies, I got a duo pack of JW Doubleblack at the airport for about 95-96 USD.

About atms, I think I hit the jackpot with my card, a Payoneer MC, since it also has GBP, the exchange rate is 4800 pesos per 1 GBP!! I got this rate in the Bancolombia ATM at the near Carrulla supermarket.[/QUOTE]Well, congratulations!! The Visa Exchange rate for this weekend (Saturday-Sunday-Monday) is 5,122 Colombian pesos per 1 GB Pound. Did you accept the bank's assured / guaranteed rate? That might be accounting for the difference. What was that old saying. "Reading the forum has its benefits" . Something like that.

[QUOTE=RiceRocket99;2728591]I haven't heard of a gringo getting robbed or scoped in Manrique or Aranjuez, but Poblado and Laureles you hear those stories on the weekly. Thieves don't go to the barrios to rob gringos! They go to gringoland looking for dumb and drunk gringos to scope and rob duh. They see me in a barrio they think I'm a poor motherfucking chino jajaja. I'm not worth their time and energy hehe. Paisas party heavy in general, and I'm a chino paisa hasta la chimba hpta! Well, I don't think I'm cocky, I just report my experiences and provide my personal opinions. I do get sarcastic on my posts, that's just for fun and games. Anyways, enjoy the Feria de Flores everybody!

Remember this: the barrios are dangerous, youre much safer in Poblado and Laureles where your chances of getting scoped or robbed is near imposible :)[/QUOTE]This is not only about safety. Poblado and Laureles got the best restaurants, bars and nightlife. Best hotels and apartments. Best cinemas and shopping malls. It makes no sense to go across the whole city to one of those barrios, let alone stay there, especially if a monger doesn't speak Spanish. I'm not new to MDE, but can't imagine myself partying in Aranjuez, why would I go there if I could party in Provenza and have fun? You need to make a disclaimer here. You speak Spanish and you bought an apartment (in Bello, if I'm not mistaken? This means you are a local mf now, and live there for extended periods of time. The truth is, very few of us can replicate what you, and Osteoknot, for example, are doing (not that we all want to do the same though).

P.S. you never heard of a gringo getting robbed or scoped in Manrique or Aranjuez because very few gringos, if any at all, ever showed up there. Your sample is ridiculously small lol

I totally agree with what you said 100%. I wasn't trying to promote the barrios. I do end the posts with don’t come out there right hehe. Im just putting different and unique experiences out there. I love partying up in la 70 and 33 in Laureles and I also like to wine and dine in Provenza. I recently went to eat at Don Diablo Steakhouse and drank tequila bottles (party of 6) in Dos Santos Cantina. I enjoyed both places, it's just that I want to post stuff on here that's not the typical gringo spots and venues. Yes, I agree I should put some disclaimers on my posts, but then it'll make me come off as cocky hehe. Im sure there are some mongers out there that enjoy reading my barrio posts, and thats enough reason for me to write, but I'll go back to my Bello bubble.

Everyone is always talking about Centro so what is the big deal? I love Bello.

Besides it beats the hell out of reading 44 posts on the peso exchange rate, DAMN.

[QUOTE=Osteoknot;2727807]The lower class makes up 80% of the general population. The wealthier class would obviously control more of the money.

If you're into social anthropology, how about the Medellin saying, "When a woman cheats on you, it's with another woman". Just thought I'd throw that in there for no particular reason other than human interest.[/QUOTE]What's this phrase? I'm trying to think of the implication, but all I can come up with is women in Medellin are lesbians and are only with men as providers?

If no one pushed the envelope a bit and shared, this thread would have 14 years of just discussing Poblado hotels, the girls in Lleras, and the best burger joint endlessly. If Someone was looking at this site for the first time, I'm pretty sure they'the be able to determine that Poblado is the "safest" (using that word in terms of being most Americanized and easy to understand / manage), Laureles is close behind, and El Centro is a bit more for the adventuress. And that. Your post here and there is about an outlier area not for the uninitiated. That is, If they are RTFf thoroughly. And not going back two pages.

I admire the way you and Osteo go about your business. It's not necessarily for me, but you are "doing you" and enjoying life. Something I need to be better at. Whenever I see a post from you, I perk up a bit in a similar way that I did with Slapshot (although you two are on completely different ends of the way you go about things).

[QUOTE=ChuchoLoco;2728544]All I know is that there is a "bug" called giardia that you can get from rimming and it is not fun. Of course there is a med or two to get rid of it but for some it can be tough to get rid of. Diarrhea like you have never had. You can also get it if you have a scratch and wade in water with the bug which is common. I had it once from walking in a stream in Costa Rica countryside. Didn't rim that vacation, hahaha. At least I don't remember doing so.[/QUOTE]Also called "beaver fever" in mountain areas of US and Canada. Beavers in your source water for drinking water spread it, and normal municipal chlorination does not always kill it. Many tourists become familiar with it. I'm sure there are many other animal vectors as it is common all over the world. And rimming would be a very effective way to get it from someone who carries it. Which is probably the majority of the earth's human population.

That makes sense following the rules about ser / estar. Ser describes permanent qualities that people have, vs. Estar describing more impermanent states. I tend to use it most as descriptor "no me gusta las mujeres interesadas" (I don't like gold-digging women). Again I wouldn't recommend accusing someone of being "interesada" directly in most circumstances. It's a strong term that can be taken as an insult and get you in a fight. But you can plant the idea in their head that you are on guard for "interesadas" throughout the course of your conversation. I like to do this type of thing because it conditions their behavior and set expectations given the strong negative connotation of the term and the large amounts of pride most of these chicas have.

[QUOTE=Huacho;2728159]Yes, but this is very tricky. If you use 'interesado / a' with [I]ser[/I], it means gold digger. Say you ask me what I think about the woman you are seeing and I say 'Creo que [B]es[/B] interesada. ' I think she is a gold digger. But if you use 'interesado / a' with [I]estar[/I], it translates literally to interested. Thus if my reply to your question about your woman was instead 'Creo que [B]est[/B] interesada,' I am saying I think she digs you.

So be careful with 'interesado' and watch your verb.[/QUOTE]

Can someone outline what La Isla is like? I'm mixing it up with other strip clubs.

Is there an entrance fee? Cost of a girl is around 300 K pesos? Is there a room fee? Price for a beer?

[QUOTE=MiamiBoy1;2728641]This is not only about safety. Poblado and Laureles got the best restaurants, bars and nightlife. Best hotels and apartments. Best cinemas and shopping malls. It makes no sense to go across the whole city to one of those barrios...[/QUOTE]Haha. MB has got his tape measure out again. The Barrios are noot even marked on it so he is confused, poor chap.

Finally sessioned with el Centro SW.

I rehearsed my Spanish phrases and made the lap around 11:30 but I didn't see any chica sweet enough. I wasn't in 'sitting and waiting' mood so decided to take a 10 min stroll to see my casa regular for a sure thing. Had a great time for an hour (broke the bed jaja). She was disappointed I'm saving my leche for later though.

Lap though el Centro. Saw couple prospects. Second lap, some of the girls disappeared already. As I wait on the red light, I see one of the chicas I liked standing on the corner right across the street. Long legged cutie in pink yoga panties with camel-toe showing and nice pair of breasts. I have some time to observe. Green light and I approach. Exchanged the pleasantries and asked her how old she is. 20. OK. Tienes cedula? Si. Bueno, cuanto cuesta? Cuanto tiempo? Cuarenta minutos. How much will you give me? I say cuarenta mil, she says cinquenta. I pause, considering whether accept such an outrageous price. Oral sin condon? I ask still 'undecided'. Si amor. OK, vamos.

She leads me to a hotel nearby. Very clean lobby area and generally nice surroundings compared to the outside. I give 20 mil to the reception lady and get 10 and some change back.

Decent room. She asks for money. No, mas tarde, amor.

We chat a bit. She says she's from Venezuela (light skinned though). She didn't bother to remove her bra but I didn't mind at all, as her titties sticking out looked hot and it was nice change from completely naked chicas. Passable BBJ. She's relatively tight. Standard positions and I stop short of finish, as the day was still young. Not a great fuck, not bad, decent. I did like her body and the session got heated couple times but there was some detachment too and at the end a little cold. Partially it can be blamed on a short interval between Hola and the penetration I guess, since there wasn't much of the rapport building.

I leave the hotel and head out of the area. A young SW with great tits and nipples showing through passes by, she's going somewhere briskly with a purposeful look. I continue walking but after 15 seconds decide I cannot pass on this opportunity, do the 180 and go look for her. I can't find her anywhere. Damn. Maybe she stepped inside somewhere. Well, another time. As I changed directions now, I see the girl I just sessioned with standing back on the coroner. We exchange waves and faint smiles and I move on.

After a meal I decide head to Taberna Avenida as it's been a long time since my last visit.

Passing though Botero Plaza, a petite young-looking SW starts waving and talking to me. She wanted some money I believe. No hablo mucho espanol amor. Tienes cedula? Bunch of Spanish worlds back. I guess the gist was: no or not on me. Well. Tienes whatsapp? No, fayboo. I hand over the phone, she finds herself and sends a friend request. I move on. Sent her a message later asking how old she is. Checking FB info now it says she's 19 and from Dominican Republic. I'll see if she can produce some kind of document.

Skanky-dressed pregnant girl with cute face seats nearby me in Taberna Avenida. I smile and ask "which month? Consternation. She ain't pregnant, just fat LOL. We laugh it off and I buy her a drink. I see some other 'pregnant' girls on the stage and ponder, how come they have such pumped bellies and stomachs but aren't particularly fat in the hips or even have much of that jiggly fat. I guess they're stuffing themselves, stretching the stomachs, their young bodies can still adapt easily and just balloon out. Oh well. The line-up in Taberna is simply horrible so I'm heading out. There is one cute and smiley chica eyeing me but a little too thick for my taste today, I take the number on the way out.

I finish my night in Nueva Avenida, have a heated session with one of the chicas there.

A lot of these centro SWs have kind of stern / cold expression on their faces, especially the ones standing alone. Others seem bored. If I don't feel like bringing the fun that day and just want to unwind, then casa / strip club is probably better place (for essentially the same price) since most of the chicas will have the fun attitude from the get-go, are flirty, joking and generally relaxed. Maybe the SWs that 'kss kss' and 'hola amor' me can have good attitude / service, although at the first glance couple of them appeared somewhat aggressive.

I did see several hot chicas in there though so will definitely come back for more try-outs.

I can't tell you the price because it seems to have increased again so my info is out of date from just a few months ago. The girl will cost more than that. Expect that you may need to pay a large tip if you can find one that will do BBBJ. The room fee has always been included if it has not changed. I think as the way it is setup now, you can pay a cover and don't buy drink. There used to be a price list behind the bar but I didn't notice it after remodel. I remember there is a barcode at the bar that you can scan to view menu on your phone but I didn't scan it.

Here is a suggestion, to avoid a dud, have a make out session in the club area before going to the room if possible. This is what I used to do in La Isla, and what many mongers are doing in clubs in Brazil which cost much more than La Isla. From a value point of view, you want to fuck one that you don't see often elsewhere, pay whatever you can to get what you want if that is the case but don't overpay what you can easily get elsewhere.

[QUOTE=Paulie97;2728379]Even he can run out of luck in a flash and without notice. Manrique, Bello, whatever, they damn sure know he isn't a local. He's also cocky and partying heavy. At least he's been warned.[/QUOTE]What you all fail to realize is. Rice rocket has been here for 10+ years. He's well established, has his contacts all over medallo. He doesn't party or just take out one girl like most guys. When he parties he parties with groups of chicas that he's known for 4+ years that are locals to whatever barrios he's at. And these ain't just regular chicas. These chicas are bad ass bandidas that have no shame in who they are or slashing a mother fucker if you cross them the wrong way.

He's also not just about getting laid and partying. He takes time to build friendships / relationships / contacts over the years. He's so well established now that his friends throws girls at him to where he does not have to hunt for desconocidas or random girls unlike the rest of us.

So yes he can afford to party in the barrios with a bunch of chicas in their hood. They treat him like he's part of their hood and he's one of them. This guy lives like a king at the fraction of the cost we all pay for logistics / girls etc and these barrio girls he's with are way better than central sw.

Respect the king. Yo better check yourselves before you wreck yourselves. A dick in yo ass is bad for your health-ice cube.

Long live the king! Long live Rice Rocket and his crew of baddies bad ass bitches!

I have never done a session with sites like Paisasprepagos but I've seen alot advertise that they have their own place in Laureles. Has anyone here had the courage to do a session at the prepago's place?

[QUOTE=Maelstrom;2728829]...sites like Paisasprepagos...[/QUOTE]Do you have a link?
