Medellin Reports

I wish every monger on here a Merry Christmas. I hope you all find the best girls. Being a true expert at the craft. I'll be offering my experience to you normal morons. Fill free to dm me and I'll be posting my awesome wisdom soon. Stay tuned.

I speak decent Spanish and have been there before. I'm looking for a building with security, booked a good one last time- either that or Ill get a second Airbnb just for boning.

My question was about the party scene- LA 70 and other venues to meet civilians / non pros / Semipros. I'm going to post a separate question for this one.

[QUOTE=MoonShot;3040917]Poblado may be full of tourists and mongers but you don't have to stay in Poblado. If you are sick of seeing gringos everywhere, you can stay in another neighborhood where gringos are rarely seen. Just do your research before venturing to new places.

Laureles is a well known neighborhood that has some gringos but not to the same extent as Poblado. I am currently in Belen and there aren't that many gringos hanging around here. It seems to be a safe neighborhood with plenty of places to eat and shop.

You don't need to be in Park Lleras to find girls. There are the girls in El Centro who can take care of your needs for a cheap price. There are also girls online who will travel to where you live. If you can find girls that you like online, then it really doesn't matter where you stay.

For guys new to Medellin, it is best to stick with Poblado because it is the easier place to stay and more people speak English there. In other neighborhoods, most people don't speak English so you will need to get out your cellphone to use Google Translate if you don't speak Spanish..[/QUOTE]

Is it still possible to meet Regular girls or maybe semi-pros In-person in Medellin? In places other than the grocery store or hooters? Any "cultural exchange" meetup events in Provenza or other places? Or do I need to go deeper in- Sabaneta, Belem, Envigado?

The crowd usually includes some attractive, younger chicas who have come more with an eye to meeting a gringo than with any care about improving their language skills. But most all the ladies will speak at least some English.

By far the largest such event (more of a massive Happy Hour) used to take place (still does???) in the Vintrash Bar on Tuesday and Thursday nights in the Provenza pedestrian zone of Poblado. I last attended a couple of years ago and recall 100 or more participants, filling the multi-story bar and spilling over into an outdoor seating area and the street. If you google "Gringo Tuesdays, Medellin" it seems that the event may have gravitated a few doors down on Carrera 35 to the Teatro Victoria. The "Gringo Tuesdays" event is billed as a "Language Exchange and International Party. " 5:00 PM to 3:00 AM.

As always, Happy Hunting.

The truth is 99% of the hotter chicas screwing foreigners are interesadas or prepagos.

If you're willing to compromise on attractiveness or age, it will be easier. Many "mid" chicas will be happy with a meal and a place to take a hot shower.

With good Spanish and dancing skills, the clubs in La Setenta on a Friday or Saturday are good.

Be careful with anyone offering you a "good deal"these are often thieves disguised as girlfriends or prepagos.

This is the less obvious issue with dating apps: a foreigner in Poblado wants free sex and matches with some Manrique hood rat. They have no shared agenda or idea what the expectations are. Many girls are embarrassed to ask for money upfront.

Her options are to slowly rinse the guy for Ubers and food, steal from him, drug him, or just ask for money.

Many will play the girlfriend angle first to see how it goes. They'll go on a few dates and then ask for a MacBook "for school. "

She sees the interaction as a way to get something.

Try talking to the 3040-year-olds or slightly thicker chicas. This works much better.

It was absolutely required in Philippines, I'm wondering if it's the thing to do in Colombia or does it make you look like a tourist / easy to snatched?

I wear Clothing Arts pick pocket proof pants in all my travels.

I have been to the Philippines 100 times and have never worn any shit like that. I put my money in my pocket like a normal person would.

[QUOTE=HuskerDude;3041514]I believe it'll make you look too touristy & a target. I wear Clothing Arts pick pocket proof pants in all my travels.[/QUOTE]If you are not Latino, you will look like a tourist regardless of what you wear. Walking down the street, it is easy to pick out the gringos. Sling bags are very useful for carrying a number of items such as your cellphone, wallet and keys. I wear one and I have not had any problems so far. But if a guy approaches you with a knife or gun, it doesn't matter whether you have a sling bag or pick pocket proof pants.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;3041525]Say what? I have been to the Philippines 100 times and have never worn any shit like that. I put my money in my pocket like a normal person would.[/QUOTE]I haven't been to the Philippines a hundred times but probably over 20 times and I have found sling bags to be great because you can put your wallet and cellphone and other things together. Pickpocketing is not unusual in the Philippines and putting money in your pocket is easier to steal. Everyone can make their own choice. There really is no right or wrong answer.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;3041525]Say what? I have been to the Philippines 100 times and have never worn any shit like that. I put my money in my pocket like a normal person would.[/QUOTE]I'm not sure where you went in Philippines but when I went, there was not a single foreigner that didn't have a sling wallet.

[QUOTE=Dinosaur9;3041415]It was absolutely required in Philippines, I'm wondering if it's the thing to do in Colombia or does it make you look like a tourist / easy to snatched?[/QUOTE]I wear one so I don't have to worry about pick pockets or losing / misplacing things. I use it for the airports to have my documents on me in accessible way. I don't put my passport in a carryon bag. It's very unlikely that you'll come across someone who will try to grab your wallet even much less approach you with a weapon.

Here's the latest as I arrived yesterday. At 2:40 pm. The line was long but it moved fast. There were groups of people so it went well. There's been a lot of discussion about people being detained and turned away at immigration.

I was nervous because the last time I was here the security guy took a photo of my passport as I was leaving! I don't know if he thought I was transporting anything but he was alarmed when he saw all of the stamps on my passport.

So, when I arrived I was sweating profusely like the dude in Midnight Express. The room behind checkpoint was unlit and empty so that relaxed me. But, eventually the lights came on and I saw two dudes with stern looks on their faces directing a guy to the room.

I have never noticed this before but when you are first in line, there are a few seats on the left. I saw two guys sitting there. That's where they make you wait when you go to back room.

I could tell there was something wrong and others noticed too by how flustered and confused the guy was as he was led to the room. I think it is worth repeating here that you MUST do your Check Mig before you arrive and have address, phone number of the place where you are staying entered correctly. You also MUST have place to stay confirmed before you arrive. You can't look for place when you get here. (it's a problem for some).

You have to stick to the script. That is: you are here for "Tourism. " You don't need to say anymore than that. I was nervous and uneasy it was a long trip. You need to have your ticket and passport ready and that will help. That's where crossbody wallet really helps. (people don't like those) LOL.

I hope that helps.
