Hello, with some much talk about Gustos on this forum, I am wondering if anyone can tell us how Lleras Park Nightclub has been recently? I found it to be better on Friday and Saturday night than Gusto's last trip and the women can be had for no more than $80-120 USA Dollars. They are all freelancers in the club.
[QUOTE=JustTK;2819334]There are a couple up on Ave Oriental, close to the La Playa intersection. BodyTech is one of them. Can't recommend bcos I don't go to those places. Those are not the type of muscles I look to flex.[/QUOTE]See you in Mid June if you are still around then. Lunch at Govindas sounds good.
Do flight attendants all live in Rio Negro? Couldn't help but notice 8/10 of them are hot. Has any of you dated them?

I always go to ATM before the weekend hits because the ATMs run out of money and the lines are long. But I ran out of money on a few weekends and actually got lucky late Saturday (maybe it was Sunday). The ATMs pay out the big bills first. When I got there all the 50's and 20's were gone so it was spitting out 10's so I stocked up both times. Do not rely on this method. But as you pass by an ATM on the weekend pay attention to the people counting their money as they walk away and see what denominations they have and maybe get in line.
[QUOTE=Surfer500;2818526]Unfortunately there are no guest friendly hotels in and around the area you described.[/QUOTE]But I read previously in this thread that hotel nutibara is guest friendly?
[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2819156]Is it possible they are doing different things on different nights? One night where it is slower could be 50 and a night where they had all going on that you say, the price could be jacked up to 80. You both could be right.[/QUOTE]E, I went there 2 nights -Monday, very slow and on Friday and it was packed, I was charged 50 K. At first, I thought I was being scammed but on the second visit I noticed the sign on the door which in fact said 50 K. They must be changing the price on a whim. Now another member posted he paid 40 K pesos. If we don't take control of these prices, before long La ISL will be charging 100-150 K entrance fee.
Here's an idea -gather up a few mongers (at least 5) go there and if they try to charge 50-80 K pesos, ask to be let in for 30 or 40 K if not go to Fase 2.
No need to make a scene or raise your voice in fact be real cool and if they refuse, simply let them know that you will be going elsewhere with your dollars.
[QUOTE=Ruddock1;2819179]Is there a gym somewhere within walking distance in El Centro. ?. I'll be staying at the Nutibara and need a place to flex my manly muscles.[/QUOTE]You will save yourself time to walk to the nearest smartfit (which is laureles unicemtro mall) someone correct me if I'm wrong. Smartfit line seems to be the best gym in south america, and for the serious gym rat, like myself. If I were you I'd hop in a taxi or take an indriver to the gym and back. It'll be about $4 usd for the trip. I personally used unicentro smartfit and had squat macjines, a place for heavy deadlifts, they charge 80 k cop for a month membership which is on the expensive side, but worth it. Save yourself the headache.
[QUOTE=Ullo200;2819361]Wow great to hear from someone who has personal experience with both hotels, I am planning to book one of them for one day and then decide where to spend rest to the time after looking on both when I reach there, I have to visit Medellin from August 3 to August 23 , I know that this area is a little dangerous (I have been there only 2 times but only in daylight) , do to think its too dangerous to stay there as you have personal experience staying that area?[/QUOTE]Don't go around flexing your gold chains or flashing your money or iPhone around and you will be just fine in this area. It is no more dangerous than santa fe in Bogota.
I will search the forum for answers but looking for best guest friendly Airbnb's and hotels in Laureles. Any info appreciated.
[QUOTE=FedorE;2819390]Just got quoted 450 mil for an hour + taxi fee from a Prepagos girl. Am I tripping or is that way too high. I'the rather get 2 pops at a casa for 140 k.[/QUOTE]Assuming they don't speak spanish and can't go for non-pros, new MDE mongers are left with three options:
1) get the wham bam non GFE service from the seasoned casa girls in centro (zandalay, dulce, amigas sexy, etc).
2) stick out like a sore thumb at ground zero and risk robbery / violence for cheap vennies.
3) pay out the ass for an online girl that doesn't look like her pictures.
Or, la isla or fase 2 or gustos if you want to be a mark.
Any "7+ " paisa worth their salt has figured out the instagram / onlyfans game, and don't need to sell themselves for 50 k cop anymore. May have some luck on seeking arrangements.
There is no more gringo allure or charm, it's expected.
Best bet, learn spanish and blend to get a non pro.
A little off topic from your post, yes.
Medellin is the new cartagena, the locals see a foreigner and know they're here for degenerate sex. Anti-gringo sentiment is very high and will only increase. Not going to sugar coat it.
[QUOTE=DonCarlos1234;2819211]Yes and the buzz that we hear, the videos of people walking around spewing their BS bring more of the same. Then idiots making it rain. Kinda like the USA hip hop world mentality, big asses and stupid people. HEY, look at me I have $. The hot girls are still there. They are more selective now. Cost maybe 20-40% more. Still incredible.[/QUOTE]DC, I swear I am in this parallel universe in that the Colombia I see is so much different than what other guys see. On the one hand, I read Colombians and their $500 a month salaries and the like, but I see the Iphones and the fancy cars and I know things do not add up. I have been to poorer countries where the women wanted more money. I think pussy got cheap in Colombia because of the Venezuelan invasion and things in Venezuela are not as bad as they were so pussy was going to get more expensive because of that.
Meanwhile, my gal has a death in the family and she gets an inheritance. The family member owned a farm. I actually went there. It did not look like much on the outside, but the land was incredibly valuable and she got a share of the animals. I couldn't calculate an exact figure but those cows were worth a lot more than I thought. And where the farm was, the grasslands North of Bogota, have great fields for cattle grazing. I wondered how much of the farming business outside of the drugs is being kept off the books. It was kind of staggering how much the businesses this family member had added up to. I wonder how many Americans would have assumed this Colombian family member was poor.
My gal stayed with her cousins and their house was stunning. The gal I was dating before this one had a house in the city of Apartado that was like 3,000 square feet and it too was nice. When I was on a tour of Cartagena, the guide was pointing to the million dollar homes in Bocagrande and Castillogrande, and yet the average American thinks of Colombia as poor right?
[QUOTE=DonCarlos1234;2819211]You won't find them in the US under what $300 for an ugly SW? . Patience and persistence is now your best game. I found 2 extremely good looking girls, got their numbers and had them meet at my hotel 2 days later. Never left my seat, was polite to everyone (even the fatties) and succeeded. I'll be back in 3 weeks. It takes 9-10 hours on a plane from Vegas (or me) . Florida is 3-4, NYC is 5. No wonder it's full of shit for brains people. (just kidding).[/QUOTE]Don, I was in Miami when Avianca started back direct flights from Miami to Cartagena. Avianca and the Miami airport made a bit of a party out of it. They had speakers and a podium and like some free drinks and food. Anyway, the airport guy said Colombia was Miami's #1 international destination. So you have our government do this crazy fucking $10 trillion Covid stimulus package, and it is crazy to think that some of that money would not find its way to Colombia.
Thing is one of my best friends is in Florida and he is bothered by the easy money so many people there have come into. Apparently, the best land to build on in Florida is the ones where they grow citrus, and he built on land previously used to grow citrus. His city has grown like a weed, and the traffic is unreal. Still, he pays little in property taxes because he gets an agricultural exemption because he lets cattle feed on his property. At some point, a famer needs to ask himself if this insane tax policy is going to be kept up. Why is there a tax break for some farmer raising cattle or growing citrus in what is now suburban Florida? Wouldn't it make more sense to sell the farm for millions to some condo developer and move your operation to Colombia where the land and help is so much cheaper? We have a free trade deal with Colombia right?
For some reason, the airlines overestimate the times from Florida to Colombia. In reality, it is two hours from Miami to Cartagena and like two and a half to Medellin and Bogota. What is so disgusting for those of us in Texas is nonstops from here are four figures because of monopoly pricing. But because you have like five or six airlines competing on routes, flights from Florida are dirt cheap. So a three day weekend is cheap with regards to time spent and air fares cost, and it is crazy to think that the huge money flowing into Florida is not going to go to Colombia too. Why bother with the $500 an hour hooker in Miami versus a better one for a fraction of that cost in Colombia?
You lived in Tijuana in Mexico and saw it change as American money flowed in. Now companies are moving their factories from Mexico to China because labor is cheaper in Mexico. The peso has gone from 20 to the dollar to 17 now, and I think the peso will continue to get stronger. The Mexican women I know may not be rich, but they are not desperate. Maybe it is just me but I do not see that desperation in Colombia either. Thing is I think people have totally forgotten about Covid and how hard Colombia shut down. Those were desperate times because so few people could work or earn a living. It is crazy to compare those days to now.
[QUOTE=Ruddock1;2819179]Is there a gym somewhere within walking distance in El Centro. ?. I'll be staying at the Nutibara and need a place to flex my manly muscles.[/QUOTE]I agree with DownLow123. Your best bet for price and value is likely SmartFit although it will be a cab ride, albeit short and cheap. If you're hear for a week I'd do that. I've found BodyTech to be a bit pretentious and to be more difficult for sign up as a foreigner. The one issue with SmartFit is that some locations allow day passes and others do not. I for one typically find the month pass at 50 k to 100 k (ie $12 to $18) depending on location to still be good value for 5 to 7 trips over a week. Remember to bring a copy of your passport as they oddly need that (as opposed to other ID).
[QUOTE=JustinFields;2818125]Going to Medellin in mid July....
I will probably do a little pay for play but not making it the focus of my trip.
Do you guys prefer Poblado or Laureles? My spanish is probably at 15%.
Have any of you guys been successful in banging girls out there without paying for it?[/QUOTE]Yes, but it's largely dependent upon your age, fluency in Spanish, and spending time with the girl. I used to have my trips spread out as 1/3 prepagos (ie casas, clubs), 1/3 semi-pros (ie the less hardcore FB girls), and 1/3 non-pros (ie girls I'd meet through friends or on street). With the latter you have a lot of challenges, but it can be done after a couple nice dates, convincing them that you're not a monger, and having some connection to Colombia or Medellin. Non-pros go out with tight nit groups and families in Colombia, not looking to 'hook up' like in the US so it's hard to break that circle. But again, can be done. For each 10-12 day trip I'd usually have dates with 2-3 non-pros and maybe 1-2 would be able to hook up with. If nothing else you get to work on your Spanish, although the initial interactions can be frustrating and awkward.
[QUOTE=BlueChange;2817558]Wow! HELP. That was my first introduction to mongering back in like 2004 or so. My goodness. I swear if that place was open today I don't think I would have even ventured into Colombia.
The atompshere, the vibe, the energy the shear SIZE of it. I loved how it felt like a real club and it was like even though all the girls were working you still felt like there wasn't this hard sell from the girls.
I think I banged to this day the most beauitful girl there ever, but my goodness she was on a next level in terms of understanding men and how to manipulate them. I was way too young to even understand but damn.
Soo so sooo many good fucks there, There will never be anything like it again at the size that was. I think it was even taughted as "the largest club in south america" it just so happend to have working girls there.
If you look in my profile you can see reports of it in the rio fourm somehwere. Props for the reminder.[/QUOTE]I first stumbled onto that club during Carnival at the age of 24 and think that club was a good part of the reason I got into the hobby and never go married LOL. Surely saved me some money over the long run ha ha.
