Posts: 4349Those apartment buildings around the park have liberal Airbnb policies, the administration committees don't enforce the government registration rules. That's why there are so many affordable apartments on offer. I saw an apartment that wasn't bad at all. The area is no more dicey than Nutibara and Plaza Botero during daylight hours but at night I am with you 100%. Your survival prospects are better around the Nutibara at night for sure.

Posts: 2125She isn't out in the streets actively hooking. There is a difference.

Posts: 1173Keep telling yourself she isn't a hooker even tho you admitted you paid her. " I gave her money for diapers and food" blah blah. LOL.

Posts: 2125Parque de Bolivar and the area around there is not somewhere a first time visitor with limited Spanish is going to want to be walking around at. I highly suggest you stay at the Nutibara instead.

Posts: 3374Nutibara will be easier to navigate and safer between the two choices. It's also closer to Metro.

Posts: 1261I think that trying to distinguish between "professional" and "regular" is what is not useful. Or whether she is a prostitute or not. I think most of us do not see it as a moral issue, and whether she is a single mom just looking for a bit of help to get by, or a sexually active woman who thinks that she might as well make some money having sex, or a full time prostitute it really doesn't matter. The risks are probably not all that different. Some of the more business like ones may take better care of their health, for example. Anyway most of us here are looking to pay or accepting that we will be paying for these relationships, whether once for a short time, or repeatedly.

Posts: 988First timer should go with Nutibara if considering doing El Centro. First timer with beginner Spanish might not want El Centro depending on the size of the cojones. But staying in Nutibara, you would want to bring the hookers there. That's kind of the point of staying there. At least to me. And things can definitely go wrong in an apartment near Parque Bolvar.

That is what I'm talking about. You tell them Gabacho. Your experience aligns with mine here in Colombia and the ones I have had all over the world. Professional tricks get it twisted when it comes to regular girls. They think that giving ANY kind of financial assistance makes a girl a prostitute. Thank you for posting a clear real life "boots on the ground" example of how that is not the case. Educate them brother!

Posts: 6423This is partially true. Not every American male visitor to Medellin is a monger although perhaps the majority are. The regular paisas would not be so stupid as to reject the advances of all Americans. In the rest of Colombia there is no such rejection because that stigma does not exist there.

Posts: 59First Time Traveler to Medellin
Tickets are bought for next February, I've been watching a lot of recent passport bro videos to prepare and got access to the Prepago Google Map. The guy who created the map suggest I stat at Hotel Nutibara cause there literally plenty of spots to see workers but on here says it's not the best place to stay.
Theres an apartment near Parque de Bolvar I saw within my budget that I was considering staying and according to his map, El centro is only a 8 minute car ride, so can't go wrong there. Any advice on where to stay along with anything else? I'm ok with my beginner Spanish but I'm taking virtual classes up until the trip to improve my comprehension and fluency. I already know about how not to stick out, and how to be aware with my surroundings and not to bring the chicks to my room (that's my safe house) so no problem there, but any advice I'd appreciate it.

Posts: 988I was in Argentina this time last year and crisp US bills were what you wanted to exchange. The inflation was so bad, the ATMs were hard to use because they would spit out stacks and stacks of bills.

Posts: 4349I've heard you can get better unofficial rates in Cuba than you can from ATMs. I did not benchmark so that may be an exception. The rates I got in Argentina from ATMs in 2018 were more competitive than what change agencies were offering. More recent visitors should pipe in with up to date information.
