Posts: 66Haven Hotel
I booked 5 nights at Haven on Hotels.com.
I just received this note from the hotel.
When was the last time anybody on this forum stayed there and can comfirm they are girl friendly? I sent them an email them asking if they permit outside guests to visit.

Posts: 311I appreciate the encouragement. Hopefully we can meet up again, as once I get this property I'll be spending as much time as possible in Medellin without becoming a tax resident. I thought having 2 passports would be a loophole, but I consulted a lawyer and he said that it's not always the case. I have to do more research on that. I'm 40 right now and my Asian genes make me look early 30's, so I ain't waiting till I hit 60 to retire. I'm looking at 45 as my prime retirement age and that's my goal. As for furniture, I'm definitely going with quality because I know lots of the Airbnbs I've stayed in all over Medellin has some of nicest looking, but cheapest quality materials I've seen. A BM suggested Itagui, but that's too damn far haha. I'll still look into it though.

Posts: 3252Un poco de ayuda por favor
Does anyone know of excellent online espanol lessons, there are some excellent schools in Chicago, but I don't have the time for in persona.
I want to find a 5 star teacher preferably a man (or fat ugly old chica), I don't need a hot chica just to distract me.
My level now is 0, I know about 10 words.

Posts: 311You can PM me and I can give you the law firm I used. They're bilingual and experienced in dealing with foreign investment in Colombia. And their rates are reasonable as well.

The only thing that concerns me is the statement on their Hotels.com listing.
"Only registered guests are allowed in the guestrooms. " Most mongering friendly hotels would not post this on their listing.

Posts: 14Short time Hotels in Centro
I'll be in Medellin in a few weeks. Plan on going to Centro. Are there any good ST hotels that have porno and hot showers?

I haven't yet but it wouldn't take her much effort to get the COP out of my hands.

Posts: 151Nice Trip Report!
Nice Trip Report BlackCrystal.
There is a 4th route that I myself always partake in and that's the Hotel M. On a trip I'll stay there for 3 nights and have the girls come to me. There is a steady flow of chicas to this hotel and they hang out around the pool and at night they have a bar in the basement that lots of chicas are present. It's nice because you can see them in person, hang out and talk with them and see if there is any chemistry. If there is your room is a minute away. I'll hang there for 3 days, grab a bunch of phone numbers and then afterwards check into a AirBnB for a few weeks or a month. Everyone staying there is a Monger and some never leave the Hotel. Knowing Spanish really helps a lot in communicating with the girls as most do not speak much English.

Posts: 2111Some weird posting error below.
I meant to say my Schwab and WellsFargo ATM cards are no longer working at Bancolombia ATMs. Bancolombia changed its banking intermediary and not compatible.
Davidienda on Ave Pobaldo in front of Parque Pobaldo gives 2 million. Citibank ATMs we're the same but they closed some of them.

Posts: 1643Depends on the card you have and which ATM machine you use

I used to not pay any attention to fees and then Villainy showed me the amount of money I was wasting per month was equal to over two free pepago encounters or about 300 mil COP. Once he broke it down into terms to which I could relate, I changed my habits, jajajajaja. Even timing your withdrawals when the exchange rate is more favorable adds up. Good luck.
