Posts: 204Are there any cambios in El Poblado that will give a decent USD to COP exchange rate? Many thanks.

Posts: 658Nice report Mike thanks! Your report just made me curious of your approximate age. Because they both asked to have a novio / novia relationship I got the impression you don't have more than a 10 or 15 year age difference with the chicas. Is that correct or is age supposedly not important to these chicas? Yes you have found heaven so enjoy it all you can!

Posts: 5607There is a moto zone in El Centro. About 2 blocks where nearly every business either sells or repairs scooters and motorcycles. It's located a few blocks west of the Prado metro station. At least I believe that's where you'll find it.

If you want to talk to an expert, who might be able to point you in the right direction, go to Medellin Sport Rentals and ask for Santi. It's located in the Manila neighborhood. Carrera 43 F #14-45. He can give you an opinion about every make and probably help.
They also do rentals of motos and ATVs.

Posts: 1945No, not joking. But as you allude to, maybe the experience of different people depends on their familiarity with places, ability to speak Spanish, and confidence. I often find that if you allow chicas to dictate negotiations then, it ends up with a higher price. I just assume its 30-40 k, and they would have to motivate something from there. As per normal, I don't think appearance comes in to it. Neither mine of hers. You can pay 200 k for a pig, or 30-40 k for a cutie. Can often be down to luck.

Posts: 1945I just did this so can reply with up to date info. I will do it on the gen info thread, since that's where it belongs.

Posts: 1945Ain't that the truth. I think I have been in all those scenarios, and no doubt will again.

Posts: 1945Yes for sure. I can easily believe the price goes up for gringos that can't speak Spanish. But if your confident and look / act experienced, I think you get the local rates. Well, it seems to work like that for me. *smile*.

Posts: 5607Open up Google Maps. Search for "Colosal. " It's a restaurant on Las Palmas. With the map centered on Colosal, zoom out just a bit and search for Loutron. It's very close to Colosal.

Posts: 5607How I did it
I stayed in Colombia for 354 consecutive days, although I could have legally stayed 370 days.

Before the extension ended I prepaid for 3 Spanish classes at EAFIT. 3 classes gets you e 6 month student visa, 6 classes gets you a year. Then I had to take a trip to Bogota to get the visa. Probably took another 4 hours. Somehow 180 days plus 6 months came to just over 1 year.
Cost of 3 classes was about $1000, might be less now with the current exchange rate.

Posts: 4349I get out enough for me at least. I did say it is fake news. Anyway, I'm looking forward to hearing more about what it's like here. More than anything else I am always greatly entertained by the creative ways guys justify paying what the girls ask in Gustos and Lleras. Just a couple of weeks ago I was there with a friend and we were both wearing very thick beer goggles but the girls were all hat and no cattle. Maybe I would see it differently if I had an acute case of blue balls.
- Agreed. Some of these guys must not get out much. I agree with 7-7.5 as the ceiling on what you're going to find in Parque Lleras.

Posts: 3802Knowledge was totally joking about there being Miss Universe Chicas available in Lleras for few thousand pesos more than in El Centro.

Fake news begets more fake news, but all in fun!

Only a complete fool would do that.
"You have to wait few hours" do they say they are making a fresh batch just for you? WTF.
Pro tip, if you ever need Chemo drugs don't buy them in a 3rd world farmacia either!
But on the other hand I have heard they can be very inexpensive.
This is analogous to buying a new ifone 13 in the box for $50 in MDE, would you do it?
