did anyone tried this site????
Looks very glossy/pricey to me.
Johan.
So how much in Caracas????
How much does it cost for 1 hour escort in Caracas?
I mean if you can speak in Spanish quite well.
I am interested in staying 1 month in Caracas.
The best thing is to rent an apartment.
I have found no website to rent an apartment or no email adress to contact somebody who could rent me a furnished small apartment in Caracas.
I am still interested in going there.
General Venezuelan Temperment
Johan,
It is always dangerous to generalize about an entire countries people...
Nevertheless, this is my second trip to Venezuela and on this trip I´ve been here for 5 weeks conducting extensive research on the local female population. To date, I´ve bagged 6 non-pro girlfriends, have several more that I´m still working on, and have sampled the entire p4p scene here in Merida (The rate here is 30k for 1 hr, 40k for 2hrs; the quality varies but there are always at least three to choose from and to date I have always been content) I have traveled extensively in Latin America so feel qualified to speak about the Venezuelan temperment.
Unfortunately, I agree with Johan that the people here, females especially, have a real attitude problem. Generally, women are arrogant, demanding, posessive, and generally worthless. I think it has to do with the countries previous great oil wealth when many went literally from rags to riches and their super pride complex.
Contrast this with the Colombians, who are of a totally different breed of kindness, professionalism, and humbleness. Two countries, so close together, with so much in common but with two very different types of people with very different work ethics.
One needs an iron fist and strong hand in dealing with the ladies here and while the country has much to offer in terms of recreation and easy girls I prefer the temperment of Brazilians or Colombians any day over these Venezuelans when it comes to having anything like a semi-serious girlfriend.
Perry Mason #1 is right!!
Have no doubts about Perry Mason #1's post. He nails it on the head several times. I was in Venezuela for the entire month of November 2004 on the Eastern region of the country (Oriente) and I can agree with him 100%. Although I've been told that women in that region of the country are more conservative than their counterparts in Caracas, Merida and the region bordering Colombia. I am in the process of planning another trip, I'm not sure if Venezuela is on the top of my list (I'm afraid that Argentina, Brazil and Colombia occupy the firts spots) but if I were to go, I would spend my time in the preferable regions of CCS, Merida and neighboring Andean cities of Venezuela. Just my two centavos worth :)
spend some time here before you pass judgement
Just spent 7 days in Venezuela
Very friendly and happy people. People went out of there way to help me. Girls were very nice.
Are there political disagreements? Certainly - talk to a Kerry democrat about Bush and tell me what the difference is. The fact that Venezuelans felt free to tell me publically how they felt - means things aren't that bad. Chavez is a nationalist. Maybe leftwing but most of it is demagogery. Long history in Latin America politics. If you saw the poverty in Caracas and in the villages you would empathize more. Huge gap between rich and poor here. Running water and electricity are luxuries in many places. Economy is booming in oil patches.
I love Venezuela and would come back in a second. Lots of great restaurants, clubs and people. Of course a faster customs line at the airport would be nice.
Venezuela has plenty of great things to offer...
I agree with both Ricker and Chicago Boy that Venezuela has some great things to offer the traveler. It is a beautiful country in many respects:
First, The women are beautiful, plentiful, and generally very available. I've fallen in love often while there. My experiences with young and respectful ladies far outweighed my experiences with the psychos and gold diggers.
Second, In addition to the women, the country is amazing in terms of the diverse flora and fauna of the country: Amazing beaches (the Roques not Margarita), tranquil mountain towns (Merida and Tovar) and plenty of jungles to explore.
Third, Venezuela also offers a great bang for the bunk. Prices are very reasonable if not downright dirt-cheap. Especially if you bring in hard currency to exchange on the black market.
Fourth, I also generally feel very secure in Venezuela as opposed to the questionable security situation in Colombia. For instance, this month’s edition of Foreign Policy lists Colombia pretty high on its Failed States index.
Of course, the country has some problems but these rarely have any impact on the traveler. Infastructure issues are on par with many countries in Latin America. Crime is not too much of an issue. And Chavez, despite his inflamatory rhetoric is more talk than action. He is not going to transform Venezuela in to Cuba. In fact despite his leftlist leanings he seems to be against corruption. (How rare is this in Latin American leaders and/or dictators?)
One must walk the ground in order to give an accurate survey of a country. This point is undisputed.
My position was just that I found (perhaps just anecdotally) that there were more women per capita in Venezuela that came with attitude/psychopath/controlling qualities than women I've met in other venues in South America, namely Colombia. I still love Venezuela, I just wanted to see if others had this same experience or if perhaps it was just my own perception.
