Cartagena Reports

[QUOTE=Nounce;2681161]I am not 100% sure either way. I think it is $300/ week for many states, plus the stimulus money. I know several expats who don't live is US receive stimulus money. Not everyone receive the money is poor, even a very small percentage can have an impact but I guess they are not likely to pay US $300.[/QUOTE]It's fraud as well. I know expats who are do veterans fraud, claiming PTSD to get money from the military living in DR doing Travel Chanel on YouTube.

I know people who apply for affordable housing in a luxury building, once they get the apartment furnish it, sublet it at market rate for 3 times the price while they move back in with their parents.

Allot of they young folks are getting government money via fraud and traveling.

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2681090]Perhaps you meant "stimulus money" instead of PPP. Wow, that $1,400 would have gone a long way (sarcasm).[/QUOTE]Yep. I would definitely give several random 3rd world hookers $300 each of my $1400. Damn all my other bills and eating.

[QUOTE=MrEnternational;2681190]So your new method of getting chicks is going wrong?[/QUOTE]This one was a last minute thing.

It was at 1 in the morning and the girl that was with me had an emergency and needed to go home. I kind of figured something was wrong because she kept sending voice messages back and forth with someone and I could hear it in her voice something wasn't right. I should have just called it a night and taken my stupid ass to sleep but I decided to walk by the clocktower a see if I can get a good one off so I can sleep well.

If it wasn't for a camera I would have never found the money on her with how fast and well she hid it. I'm actually going over the other camera footage now. People think I'm paranoid because I bring spy security cameras with me when I travel but those little things can identify and let me know exactly what happens / happened when something goes wrong.

A little USB phone charger camera goes a long way, I just aim it where I keep my valuables and hope I never have to look at the recording as things can get ugly once you confront them with video of them doing it. (been there before in DR when a chica tried to steal my Cologne).

[QUOTE=PVMonger;2681090]PPP (Paycheck Protection Program) money (assuming someone who owned a business used the money legitimately) could not be used that way. "NBER analysis of PPP found that 75% of PPP funds went to business owners, shareholders, creditors, and suppliers and roughly 25% to workers who would have otherwise lost their jobs. " Furthermore, "NBER found that about 75% of PPP funds went to the top 20% of households by income. " And "PPP funds were paid to businesses that used the funds to pay retained and previously unemployed workers. Roughly 25% of PPP loan funds were used for that purpose. Of the remaining 75% of funds, creditors who would not have been paid also became beneficiaries.

Perhaps you meant "stimulus money" instead of PPP. Wow, that $1,400 would have gone a long way (sarcasm). And "unemployment"? Whoopee, someone who is unemployed, living paycheck-to-paycheck anyway, and they get a whopping $300 per month extra in unemployment and they're going to jet off to Colombia and bang hookers.

But just keep believing what you want to believe. Don't let what happened in the [B]real world[/B] influence your thinking. Smh.[/QUOTE]This is not the board to discuss what I'm actually referring to.

If you go to Ctg or Mde you can physically see what type of new blood is coming in from the states.

If you're not street savy then you're not going to know what I'm talking about.

Another contributing factor is the old timers who are big on SEA.

They were also coming to Colombia during the pandemic.

The prices for everything from food to real estate to girls are going up.

But now that the world is back to normal and SEA will open back up I'm noticing those same girls are now struggling.

Desperate for customers. However they're still maintaining high prices.

But based on what I'm observing I feel within a few months prices will start to go back down but still be higher than it was 5 years ago.

[QUOTE=Nypher;2681066]If your in CTG avoid a petite Venezuelan with a large snake tattoo on her left forearm with the head of the snake pointing to her wrist. Caught her when I noticed she was in too much of a hurry to put her clothes back on as none of my chicas ever get dressed that fast and nervously.

When we got to the room she wanted to be paid upfront (I should have kicked her out right here) and with the usual 500 K I keep in my pocket I counted out the agreed 200 K and gave it to her and put the rest of the money in my pants. Turned to plug in my phone and that's all the time she needed. She put the 200 K on the nightstand where I can see it and hid the 300 K in her clothes during the activity, then after, when she was rapidly getting dressed shoved it in her asscrack. Confronted her about it which she denied but I knew she had it. Had to put her out.[/QUOTE]I too was almost had by a wide hip big booty Venezuelan. I had entered the tower late in the am About a month ago. She appeared as a nice sweet talking Chica so polite told me everything I wanted to hear. I told her if I take her big ass with me I'm not easy and she would need to earn every peso I pay her and I wanted that ass too or no deal for what I offered to pay she asked 3-4 questions I answered she agreed but I had that funny feel about her and told myself watch every move she makes. I also take my 2 Wyze cameras and can watch on my phone in real time making it appear I'm using t or reading the phone messages and seen her take a roll up gum wrapper and empty it in my beer. Guess who drank the beer, she did, guess what else she did, any and everything I wanted and told her to do and would just say," si Papi si" . That dam camera save me from who knows what, she is a big girl nice tight holes.

[QUOTE=Nypher;2680482]Don't worry about being fleeced, if it's going to happen it's going to happen jajajaj.

Prices went up all around. I paid 25 K from airport to El Laguito. And from Centro to El Laguito at nights is 15 K even when using Uber it's only like a 2 K difference.

Girls went up too so if you plan to hunt for something new make sure to have a solid back up.[/QUOTE]Yes this taxi I pain in Jan was 5400 COP. Now it's like 20,400. A 400% increase what the hell.

So I thought it was just me but my chicas agreed and told me that's why its their last choice for work.

The moment you enter the stairway it hits your nose like a fist! Stong! I've been walking by random mornings and watching them scrub down the steps but nothing is getting that smell out. Then once inside the club the smell is still there even with them blasting the AC and hookah smoke you can still smell it. I popped in but I'm staying away for a while.

Fresh back from a 5 day romp with 6 friends. Stayed in an Airbnb right across the street from the square. The square is back to normal with babes hanging out. Not as many as before but surely enough. Playa Hollywood was dead during the day. Only a handful of girls that were just average. If Cartagena gets a daytime bar location going, that will be killer. We went to Dulce Vita every night. Superstars inside this place. Started going to CTG in 2019 and prices in DV were 500 tops for all night. Now every babe was quoting $100 us for one hour and $250 US for all night. Its almost like they unionized. BBBJ was even harder to comeby but possible. I went with 350,000 CUP for an hour option mostly which use to work for me. The babes use to come, have some drinks for a while and then do the deed. Now, they were very mindful of time and were less interested in drinking and dancing with everyone. CTG is till a great time but in time the prices will make it not worth it. I had one pal who had a babe ask for $300 US for all night and she would not budge. And, he partied with the same babe 4 months ago for $200 US for all night. My Airbnb also went up $300 a night from the same time last year. I love CTG but I'm starting to look to other parts of Colombia that has clubs like Dulce Vita and Space for a better value. CTG is still a good time just be prepared to fork over more coin.

So my main Dolce chick sends me a video of some Delirium looking gringo slapping up some chica out of nowhere along with pictures of the guy and the girl! I ask here WTF is this? She tells me the guy caught her trying to drug his beer and beat her up. I'm thinking this was Medellin, she said no, right here is CTG.

My other Dolce chica was with me and heard when I was playing the video then showed me the same video. She said it was her friend who was recording the video of the girl getting beat up as the girl tried to drug him to steal from him. She then warned me allot of girls are desperate and are stealing and I should be careful.

Protect yourselves out there mongers.

We have our network and they also have theirs as they are passing around that video to all the girls no to go with that guy.

I'm looking for a chia friendly hotel or airbnb under $150 a night. I'd like to have a fairly nice place.

What's your dates?

What area you want to be in? El Laguito? Boca Grande? Centro? Manga? San Diego?

Security or no Security?

I know many places but you need to book them way in advance because they are always booked.
