Medellin Chit Chat Thread

[QUOTE=SBeach25;2099483]I admit I've been there before but as soon as a flag goes up, I cut it off. Luckily, I was able to get my money back and still had a good time by myself. Gave me an opportunity to see what was available without bringing sand to the beach.[/QUOTE]I totally agree. Especially if you're going for the first few times. More often than not it causes problem. But I want to grow a little and try something new. I just spoke with my Venezuelana in Cartagena and she called me loco but said she's game for 3 ways.

In a few weeks time it'll either be a report of a great time or a short post letting everyone know what a nightmare I had, hahaha.

Looking forward to see that report.

The sad thing is that will be one less chick in Medellin for me, planing to arrive Monday afternoon.

Kukulkan.

[QUOTE=YippieKayay;2099477]She's a great lay.

This is a good point. I'm not stressing though. Yes, there's lots of pussy around but some pussy is just way better than others. She's also very open to me fucking other chicas including her friend in the past.

I've known her for about a year now. She's not THAT much drama. But yeah. If she hasn't learned and begins to make up stupid demands then this all goes to shit again.

Actually my real concern is explaining why I have a live in chica to my Venezuelan chica in Cartagena. That chica isn't jealous (or hasn't been) but a live in chica might change that, hahaha.[/QUOTE]My friend I'm rooting for you that all goes well. This chick must truly have some really good pussy bro! LOL! I've been there! I was addicted to this one beautiful mega Booty blonde who worked in 4 x4 in Rio. Couldn't get enough of fucking her. I went thru so much shit with that shit it was unbelievable. Just when I called it quits she would come over and fuck my brains out and we called off the break up. Lmao!

Needless to say, that relationship is ancient history now. But the memories will last me forever. Good luck brother.

QUOTE=YippieKayay;2099454 I'll see if she learned her lesson. She left me a really disturbing message this morning. Yesterday she had some dudes photo in her whatsapp status so I joked if her boyfriend wants to come as well. She snapped insisting she was using her sisters phone because her broke and how she was single. I hadn't heard her voice so distressed before. Last time I tried this she told me she has never been on a plane. In any case, I agreed ahead of time how much I'd send for taxi + day at the salon getting her nails done and then got her a ticket on LATAM from Medellin. I feel kinda bad for her. She's probably never left Medellin. Just [URL=http://isgprohibitedwords.info?CodeWord=CodeWord140][CodeWord140][/URL] poor with a shitty life.

Now if she shows up with a shitty attitude I can always buy her a one way back to Medellin and wash my hands of things.

BTW, how is LATAM? I've never flown it. Always Avianca but they're out of seats for the days I wanted.[/QUOTE]I thought Vivo Colombia was cheapest flight to Cartagena from Medellin?

Recently I was sitting and talking with my friends when someone decided to join the group. More accurately, he decided to try and lure one or both of my friends away from me. I suppose he saw 2 young Colombianas sitting with an old gringo and figured they would rather be sitting with him.

He was wrong. However, it was entertaining and I learned a few new words, although I already knew "bobo" and "idiota.

In the US if you see a group and are interested in one of the women, you cut her from the herd, get her more interested in you, than in her friends. In Colombia that doesn't work, except with prepagos. It doesn't even work with prepagos if they are out with friends having fun, instead of out with friends trying to make some money.

Colombianas go out with friends to be with their friends. They are happy to add new friends, but aren't likely to abandon their group. The trick is to figure out who is the center of the group and impress them. Wit and sincerity work well. Name dropping doesn't work. You can be the guy who shaves Ozuna's head and nobody cares, unless you can get him to show up. There's also a risk with name dropping (or other bullshittery). Sometimes, someone else knows him (or in this case, her).

If you see a guy talking with 1 or more girls, talk to the guy. If there's any room or options for you, someone will let you know.

Hola Dudes,

Anyone know, either in Poblado or Envigado, where you can get a passport photo taken? I need to get my 90 day visa extended. Bringing a couple of these photos is one of the requirements.

Thank You,

Judd.

Judd.[/QUOTE]I took my own photos and did the online submission. I don't know why they require it, because they take your photo and fingerprints at the Migration office.

This is just an experiment to see if I can spell Bogot and Medelland correctly. I. e. With accented characters - in a recently posted report it seemed that I wasn't able to.

(added via Edit) Bogotá was correct but now in Edit it has been changed to Bogot. Medellin (but with an accented i ends up as Medellín.

This week a few Davivienda ATMs at bank's have had a max of 2 million cop per transaction. Normal max is 720 k.

Today, after I hit a casa in Centro, I found a place that can take a passport style photo. The location is on the corner of Maracaibo and Oriental. It's on the side of the street heading towards New Life. It will be the first business you see on the left side of the street once you cross Oriental. Cost was 6. 9 mil or $2. 25 USD. BTW, lineup at Sexy Amigas 2 was very weak.

Late,

Good info on the passport photos. As general info, if in a large city and needing passport photos, in a pinch go to an embassy. A lot of them will have photo places right nearby. Paraguayan embassy in Buenos Aires conveniently has one in the same block. Conveniently, this place appears to be owned by one or more relatives of one or more of the chicas who work in said embassy. Conveniently, the women who work in the paraguayan embassy are all so good looking that by the time I got done with that place, my dick was so fucking hard that I did not have enough skin left to blink my eyes.

Hey guys, I have a question for anyone who has stayed in both Argentina AND Colombia for extended periods of time.

How does Medellin compare with Buenos Aires in a general sense?

I'm talking about everyday living. I understand that's different for everybody, but I just wanted an idea of how the two compare. I'm sure that someone else has spoken of it, but times have changed over the last few years, so I thought I'd ask anew. I like to stay in apartments because I don't like being controlled on my comings and goings. But I always stay in the historic center of a city so I can walk everywhere, and those are usually safer. In BAs I stayed in a fully-furnished short term apartment in San Telmo, which was perfect (except for the dogsh*t everywhere hehelol). I was wrapped in history, bohemian intellectualism, everything was walking distance, especially really REALLY good restaurants, for a tenth of what I'd pay in America for the same. As far as the weather goes, I'm looking to escape the triple-digit summer heat of where I come from and figured this would be a really nice way to do it. S America stays nice and cool so I'm going to be there for about 6 weeks, and in that sense, I am on a budget.

The only thing about BAs is that the mongering scene is also dogsh*t (read that forum, trust me). From what I gather, Medellin does not have that problem.

But what of the rest of it? What are the practicalities of living there compared to living in BAs? Is "walking" also synonymous with "hopscotch"? A warm thanks in advance for the help!

I think you know the answer but IMO Medellin has the advantage only in chicas and weather (eternally spring) and perhaps ease of movement because it is a much smaller city. In terms of culture, food and non-mongering nightlife there's no comparison. Medellin is really provincial in many ways while BsAs is a world capital on par with Paris or New York.

Hola Dudes,

I went down to the immigration office this morning to get an extension on my Tourist VISA since my 90 days were up in a couple of days. At a cost of only 92 mil, its a much cheaper and less hassle option than to book a flight out of the Country and re-enter.

Colombia allows you to file a 90 day extension as long as the following do not apply. You do not stay more than six months consecutively. You cannot stay more than six months in one calendar year.

An article in Medellin Living broke down the items you needed in order to get the extension processed. Things have slightly changed. You no longer need to fill out any paperwork at the immigration office, nor do you need to bring any passport photos. They will take your photo + prints at the office. What's now required is to fill out an application on their website, upload a copy of your passport info section, and print a verification page showing the app was registered. You will not be able to see an Immigration Officer unless you have this printout which states your application was, "Registered Successfully Completed.

Bring this page along with your passport, copy of your passport photo / info page + copy of entrance stamp. Again, the cost is 92 mil. Keep in mind, they do not take cash, only credit cards. Cash payments are taken by a specific bank. The Medellin Living article has this info. Another option if you only have cash is to have another customer whose waiting pay with their credit card, and you pay them with pesos.

On the application, they will ask for a person to contact in case of an emergency. I used a friend in the States, but couldn't put in his real address since it's coded for a Colombian address. I used the address for the apartment I'm renting here in MDE and was not asked to verify. The Agent asked for a local phone # in addition to my US cell #. I gave him the guys number whose renting the apartment to me, and he said that was fine.

Total time it took to complete this process was about two hours. However, if I would've filled out the app prior to arriving, it would've saved me about an hour. Since I didn't register online, I had to go to an Internet cafe around the corner, and get that completed. Here's the link to the online app. [URL]http://www.migracioncolombia.gov.co/index.php/es/[/URL] Navigating on this site is a bit confusing. Find the menu icon and click "Tramites", then, "Cedula de Extranjeria". Click it and you should be taken to the online app.

Oficina de Migracion Colombia.

Address: Calle 19 #80 A-40, Barrio Belen, Medellin.

Try to get there when it opens at 8 in the AM before it gets busy.

Late,

Judd.

Again, thank you. So medellin has my favorite season as year round weather. WOW!! Chicas are top notch. Even better. I'm just trying to figure out if this is a place I can park my butt for about 3 weeks or so. I need the opinions of others as much as I need the facts HAHA!
