Medellin Reports

Friends and brethren. Question. I have business in BOG soon and am thinking of taking a side trip. Couple of questions.

CTG vs MDE, which would you pick if you had to make a choice?

How would you rank the 3 least expensive to most?

[QUOTE=Artisttyp]Whether you have alot of money or just a little EVERYONE can have a good time in Medellin.

Just because a girl traveled to poblado to work doesn't mean she isn't based in el centro or the other way around.

When I was in Medellin in November I was hitting quality ass for $12 an hour. When I wanted to go upscale I hit the centro strip clubs and paid a whopping $20 per hour. I didn't do one street ***** the whole trip (2 weeks of daily banging). There was no need to since all my needs were catered to already.

On another note I was paying $31 a night for a room on the 14th floor of a nice hotel which included a fridge, safe, guest entry etc. While the peasants (joke) in poblado and laureles were paying twice that amount. When you are young and reckless you can take chances by staying in the centro.

The point I want to make is Medellin caters to ALL budgets. Don't believe that the guy who spent the most got the most. It is the one who does his research and uses that knowledge along with common sense that benefits the most.

X is a horrible drug. It was good in the 80's but these days it is mixed with heroin and cocaine to get you to crash and buy more. When you finally do decide to crash you feel the urge to drink to calm your nerves. That is when you set yourself up for trouble drugs+booze= a disaster waiting to happen.

Smoke a joint do a viagra or just sip whiskey. Better off.

Peace and Love for the new year.

Nice response to Dazed and Cofused post on how much money he allowed himself for his trip to Colombia. I am retired at 54 and been that way for 3. 5 years. I live here, play here, but I don't work here. I live on a budget and get all the sex I can handle for under 750. 00 a month. I have a nice 2-2 that I paid cash for in Poblado sector. I use a housekeeper 2 times a week, I eat out almost every day. I live well, massages 3 times a week, well you get the idea, it may serve well to notice how many boomers in the USA will not retire at all now due to the Wall street crunch that has buried the hopes of Golden year dreams, so say thanks to those who bless you and I with prosperity and laugh at the Dazed and Confused because at the rate the guys going he will be back greeting at WalMart sooner than he thinks, regards to all who live in MDE, we are Lucky.

Ok boys not to play the lecture man. But whether you are a cheap guy or a big spender, doesn't really effect the rest of us. But I've been both. And regret given some girls a little extra and some girls I gave too much. Just learn from the past, every experience is a good 1 even the bad ones here is better to me then spending 200 dollars in the states for a spoiled American thats in love with a heroin addict, and gives you a handshake at the end of the night. And goes to his dump to beg to give him a BJ. Hahahaha

Some knowall idiots say that Medellin is quiet over christmas/new year but in fact more people come to Medellin during this time than leave it.
I should know as I've been here for the last 6 christmases.

If your lonely over christmas here in Medellin or any other time you must be a leper!

Just returned from a driving trip to Caucasia (eight new girls met us on arrival with a boat trip on the river Cauca) Catagena, Santa Marta, spent new year in a small town named Bosconia on the Santa Marta - Bucaramanga highway, three bottles of Run Medellin later and a fucken hangover drove back to Medellin.

Took a car load of crazy mexicarno's and met up with another 10 more in Carta.

I know now why everybody is moving to live in Medellin from Cartagena, what a dump.

Revolt, I guarantee you Dazed Confused is writing this to [url=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/url] people off, and at least 50% is fiction. I don't know Medellin very well, but after reading his Cartagena reports I questioned whether he actually ever went there. While I get annoyed at people who criticize others for paying too much, some of his comments were over the top, especially considering nobody had challenged him for being generous. From his Cartagena reports:

[QUOTE=Dazed Confused]It is not my fault that other people are poor. The people on here who are offended about other people's spending habits should learn to mind their own fucking business. Some of the posts I read here just totally amaze me. There are people who think they are somehow smart because they can find the cheapest hotel and the most desperate girl. How the hell does this make you smart? I think an intelligent person is someone who knows how to make a good income and can enjoy the greater things in life. Someone who is just getting by, saving nickel after nickel, so he can find a desperate girl in a 3rd world country is just a pathetic excuse for a human being, plain and simple. If such a person was smart he would have money. In American being poor goes hand and hand with being stupid.....

The meltdown started because some years ago the government thought it was a good fucking idea to give out sub prime loans to poor ass motherfuckers like yourselves who could not afford to pay the fucking loans back. When the economy slowed all you assholes could no longer make payments, and now, people like me who have real money and real investments are suffering. I have always said let the fucking poor live on the street like they do in Colombia. If you are too fucking stupid to make enough money to pay for your house then you do not deserve one.[/QUOTE]

[QUOTE=Shemp]Does anyone know the bullfighting schedule in Medellin for the next 2 months? I understand the fights are in jan/feb on saturdays but I need the exact dates so I can book a trip around a bullfight. I've searched the web but have struck out. Help![/QUOTE]Do a google search for "medellin travel guides " Or better yet "bull fighting in Medellin". An events calendar has to show up on one of those sites.

Once you get to Medellin just go to the tourist booth in the middle of Plaza Botero.

Artisttyp[/QUOTE]Thank you for the above, very quotable, statements.

I'm an experienced (and very value-conscious) monger hoping to make my first trip to Colombia in the next few months. I have been spending much time reading this wonderful forum, but have seen very few hotel recommendations. I speak limited Portuguese but almost no Spanish.

Would some folks here be kind enough to suggest specific hotels and neighborhoods for my lodging? All I want is a clean, safe, low-cost, girl-friendly room that is well-located for the purpose of exploring Medellin and its beautiful women. Estimated duration of my stay: about 1 week.

Thank you!

Thank you![/QUOTE]Read my last two reports. I stayed at the Hotel Florida in Nueva Florida, its about $50 a night.

Thank you![/QUOTE]I have been recieving some pm's asking me the same question. I should have included it in my original report sorry. The hotel is [url]www.hotelplazabotero.com[/url]. It is listed in the medellin lists thread.

It is located right behind hotel nutibarra on a quiet street two blocks from plaza botero. Basically you are in the pit of hell and it can get a little sketchy at night to say the least.

I found this place walking around the centro on my first trip to medellin. I usually stay for two weeks so that is why I get the discount rate of 70k. Regardless I still think the normal price of $40 /50 is way better than other hotel options in medellin. There is a risk of staying in the centro. You need to decide your comfort zone.

There are also numerous other hotels in the centro that could be used and better seen in person. None of them have english speaking staff and more than likely you will be the only gringo. The nice thing is you don't need to rely on heaters or AC because the weather is always spring'ish. That makes staying in budget options alot easier.

I hit it off with the staff at the botero plaza and the night guy is very cool (plays reaggaeton on a boom box). The rooms are a little old and the hotel is rather large so the risk for theft is higher since there aren't employees around always.

There is a rooftop deck with a universal machine and tanning chairs...no pool.

As always be low key with the guests and always confirm it via email prior to arriving.

[QUOTE=Revolt]Ok, somebody has to take this guy so I guess it would be me. I've been lurking around in the forum and somehow got the urge to post.

Dazed Confused, while I enjoy reading your reports and glad you had a good time. I had to admit I got offended by your walmart gringo comment. I consider myself a walmart gringo. I won't deny it.

Bro, I'm 53 yrs old and retired for 4 yrs now living off with my investments. I wasn't born rich. I struggled and work my way to the top getting the best education, job, etc. I don't brag about my wealth or how much money I make or spend. I'm just a simple guy living a simple life. I am cheap because of how I was brought up and went through in life. We all have different ways of spending money regardless of how much we make. I went to Medellin and had blast, but I did not spend money like you do. I could have but I choose not too.[/QUOTE]Amigos, I´ve been posting on this board for a long time.

Bottom line is, guys like Dazed come and go. Best just to ignore him.

At the end of the day, he´s most likely a pretty lonely dude, trying to feel special.
Just a bunch of blah blah blah.

Happy New Year!

This blonde is really something else. When I "discovered" her in her Medellin barrio of Buenos Aires back in her day I never knew what an entrepreneur she would turn out to be. Now shes telling guys shes a medical student, got guys sending money, and procures girls from her barrio for guys. She and I joked recently of how she used to tell me "Whatever you want to help me out with is fine. " 80k a weekend and company used to make her really happy! I have always gone for the stars/proven commodities in the hot spots but the way I found her was different. I guess Ricker would call a diamond in the rough. Things change fast! Anyone I know personally can pm me for her number.

The other girls are I guess what Colombians call gresia? (<-spelling is incorrect). Something like a novia/ more an amiga con derechas/ definately a scenester. Not pros, they don't want money but they do need to "see and be seen" looking cute in hotspots around town with you. They all look quite similiar: cute, well dressed, and always looking to go the nicest rest. Or party.

But to be seen with one gresia around town you will get the attention of, meet and eventually sleep and other gresias in town, not to mention her circle of friends. And the cycle goes on and on and on. I don't like posting pic of non pro on here at all but what the heck. But then again this scene is not unlike Hollywood, Vegas or South Beach, just a whole lot cheaper.
