Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2851274]I know there have been some reports of guys having Lasik done here successfully, however I would be very nervous having something like that done here, especially if something goes wrong which of course could happen in the States. I'm not saying you can't have a favorable outcome, but you are dealing with your eyes and if money is not an issue which a lot of times is the driver for guys getting things taken care of here, I would get it done in the States, and I know a lot of guys may think that is ridiculous but again it's your eyesight your dealing with and if something comes up it could be awkward with the language being one of the issues. I'm not dishing the medical system in Colombia, it's actually very good with some very competent Doctor's, but for something involving your eyes versus something else I would think twice about this.

Just my opinion.[/QUOTE]As a long term resident with decades of experience, I agree wih surfer.

Let me expound: many people from medellin have relatives in jail in the states.

And you don't know who is who or what is what.

You may go to a clinic where the nurse's dad brother or uncle is in jail in the states and this is her chance to fuck a gringo and she will do it.

Could be the nurse, could be the secretary, could be the doctor.

Could be anyone. You don't know.

Things like this happen every day in Colombia.

Colombia is a brutal, petty envious and jealous society and they do not like gringos at all (except for the money).

All the con mucho gusto, a la orden, plaisir servirte is bullshit.

And things have gotten real bad since the petro government took over.

Stick to enjoying anonymous stanky and when your 2 weeks 2 months or 2 years are up, use your return ticket.

But they are your dice. Roll them as you please.

Ask Osteoknot about this.

By the way, where is Osteoknot who was so enamored with Medellin he could not think straight?

Just my opinion.[/QUOTE]I had lasik done in the states 25 years ago. Still 20/20. You have to be out of your mind to do lasik anywhere else but America. Read all the horror stories of bad lasik jobs in America, much less Colombia or Mexico. It's your eyes not a teeth cleaning.

Yes, that is a very good tip. Whenever you are in a crowded space you have to be extra vigilant of your valuables. I've been lucky by making myself extra sensitive to any touches near my pockets and ignoring anything else. The distraction bump is a classic pickpocket tactic. Another old and reliable tactic is an attractive woman brushing near or touching your groin area. It's male human nature to focus on that unless you are on guard for it. A final additional tip is if you use your phone on the metro watch out for thieves who will try to grab it and jump off the train just as the doors close.

[QUOTE=Mongo1;2851265]Careful riding the Metro during the busy hours. When the Metro doors open it's like a football team trying to get on the subway. During this rush I had 4 guys bouncing off of me and my cell phone mysteriously disappeared from my front pocket.[/QUOTE]

You talk about easy prey, it amazes me how naive some of the tourists are here.

[QUOTE=GeneHickman;2851158]This is almost certain to end with a big disappointment for you my friend. Simple rule of thumb anytime a chica quotes you in Dollars, run Forrest run! The service will be poor, she will try to keep extracting $ from you and it will get awkward and that works to her advantage as you go limp and get turned off. She will get her trip her $250 or $400 and her IG pics from wherever she makes you take her in MDE. And you return home holding your dick and hopefully wiser even if your pockets are a $1 k lighter.[/QUOTE]Yea I know, I told her I'm not giving her that, she said she still wants to see me, so she'll take $80.

Is this hatred for Americans that seems to be worldwide a jealousy thing or is it the war mongering thing. If it's the war mongering, I understand but any other reason seems odd. Especially since we give billions of aid everywhere with money we have to borrow. LOL.

Some of you guys have some weird and far fetched imaginations. It is more so because in the USA you can sue if something goes wrong. In most other countries you are doing it at your own risk. Something goes wrong and too bad so sad. There is nobody in a doctor's office waiting to do harm to someone because their relative is in jail.

So this girl from pereira wants to come see me in Medellin, I'm not to sure, she's 20 and I just found out she has a kid and is a single mom, what you guys think.

If her having a kid turns you off you don't see her. Personally if she has a kid and she's hot enough I will see her everyday but I don't want to see the kid. Also aside from the fact that she would most likely have a bunch of bodies, let's ignore that, I wouldn't commit to a girl who has a kid. It's like picking up where someone left off.

I met this girl one time in Santo Domingo. Her pictures where so good she might've not been real. But after a bait and switch and persisting that wanted the right girl, she came to me at 7 am. It was the best sex of my life. She's exactly my type and I haven't met any one that looks better than her. Taller with nice books but skinny body and olive skin super pretty face. I had her every day for a week. Then the next year I had her every day at punta cana for week and we went to Cali together and I found out she had 2 kids from 2 different guys. I would never commit but she sure was hot.

[QUOTE=TjBrazil;2851437]Didn't we kill Pablo for them. Why do they hate us again.[/QUOTE]Who is we? The 2 DEA agents were in an interview recently and said it was all Colombian people that found him and killed him. They could not even carry weapons to kill him if they wanted to.

Hand in her pocket tells thieves where your money is and which pocket to target. It is better not to put your money in your pockets. There are other places such as a money belt. But to each, his own.

My vote says no don't send a dime or buy any bus tickets!

Maybe someone can help you if you can describe what is unique about her that you can't find someone like her in Medellin.
