San Salvador

[QUOTE=Socker;1805356]Another idea is call up my driver, Robert and he will take you to all the safe options for pussy. He knew of a place 2 blocks away from Novo Apart Hotel. I took this beauty for 2 hours, $40 per hour which he arranged for me. She was very pretty, light skinned w / huge beautiful tits.

When you do go out you will need to be picked up and dropped off so hiring him for 3 hours for $30 isn't a bad idea. You could get yourself to Lips and arrange to have Robert pick you up from there. PM me for his number.[/QUOTE]That's awesome. My potential trip is not until April but I will seriously consider this. Does Robert also drive to tourist spots? I would like to see the Mayan ruins during the daytime as well if I go there.

He knows all the tourist spots, he mainly deals w / conventional tourists. I think he's an expert on all of Central America.

The only short coming Robert has is his car. When I go to ES I rent a car at the airport, $40 per day approx. Then when Robert and I go for a day trip I drive and he is wingman.

Going to the casas at night we use his car because I am drinking.

So since I last saw him he could have found a more reliable car, I don't know.

The guy knows everybody and he has good English. He is very trust worthy and will look out for you.

And most importantly show you the ropes.

I just got my flights booked for April as I'll be spending three nights in San Salvador right after spending a week in the Bay Islands, Honduras. So I've got some time yet to research more and prepare. At least I'll be spending a Thursday, Friday and Saturday in San Salvador and flying out on the Sunday so I should not be affected by any Sunday casa closing.

One thing that I just learned is that the Copan Mayan ruins in Honduras is only about 4 hours away and therefore a lot closer than from the Bay Islands. Have any of you done a tour to Copan from San Salvador before? I know that there are some tour operators that offer this either as a very long day trip or an overnight stay in Copan (don't know if there's any action in Copan).

However if you have never been to Mexico or Guate, than you won't know the difference.

Some other things to do during the day in El Sal, are the beach, the markets, MiraMundo, and hiking a volcano. However my favorite is the river rafting trip in apuzunga. You will be there in April though which is the end of the dry season and the slowest and lowest time of the year for the rapids. They may not even do the trip in April as there may not be enough water flow and too rocky. You can check with them in March however as it really is a lot of fun.

Also, I know you want to go for Pupusas. Take a cab (with a lady friend if possible) up to LOS planes renderos one night. The view and food are spectacular.

This joint is a very non-descript house in an apparent residencial area. A guard was hanging around outside, collected $10 entry fee, good for one beer inside. A group of women in lingerie appeared after a few minutes and I had to make a selection.

There were about 6 women, somewhere between 4 and 7, tops. Almost all had frowns or the most disinterested looks on their faces. I picked one who seemed to have the most life among the group, though she was in the lesser half of the group. She was indeed friendly and she and I had a few beers on the crummy couch. Other groups of guys appeared, some seemed to take gals, other just waited around and drank. Other better looking women appeared while I was chatting with my selected friend.

In fact, my friend claimed she'd go down on the best looking woman in the joint, a fit but thick blonde gal. Unfortunately, I didn't have the cash for that action at that time, I wasn't keeping track of what I spent on the overpriced cans of whatever salvadoran swill. But I did have enough for two in a row.

I went back to the room with friend #1, rooms were dumps, but seemingly clean. I got the deed done with #1, she sent in #2. The thick blonde was awesome. I can't remember what I paid, I'm sure it was more than I should have. There are better deals to be made around San Salvador, but I can't complain about my time there.

However if you have never been to Mexico or Guate, than you won't know the difference.[/QUOTE]Been watching videos of the major promoted ruins in El Salvador and agree that they ain't much. But Copan up in Honduras was interesting enough for me and one friend who has been there said it's worth visiting, especially if it's only 4 hours from San Salvador. If I do it, it will be a very long day from about 5:30 am to returning at around 6 pm. I might not be in any shape for girls that night.

So that would leave me probably two nights and 1. 5 days for everything else. Fortunately I think I would be happy enough with just one girl session per day not including the Copan day. So with this limit in time, I think I want to stick with the proven standards of Kiss Fresh for either both of my available days or Kiss Fresh one day and Zou Spa or Kairos the other.

I don't think I'll bother with any all nighters especially with early morning with Copan as well as my departing flight. As for pupusas, since it's like a national dish, I'm assuming that it would be readily available pretty well anywhere close to where I stay.

If Kiss Fresh ends up to be the only place I visit for girls, or maybe even Zou Spa or Kairos on top of that, would it make sense for me to stay in a hotel as close as possible to Kiss Fresh itself? I'm already deciding that I probably won't be interested in Lips as I'm just not a drinking and watching strippers type of guy. What would be recommendations if my only action would be at Kiss Fresh?

This will be my last mongering trip of the year, so I originally planned on mongering day & night. I then realized if the scene sucks, that I would never return to El Salvador. Therefore, I decided to see the country during the day and monger at night. I found a driver on Tripadvisor and booked a couple of tours. I was given some good advice on another mongering board, but he warned me that San Salvador wasn't safe to monger at night and that I would even have trouble finding a taxi after 10 pm. I was seriously considering canceling my trip and going to Managua instead. I then re-read many of the trip reports written here and decided keep my trip to San Salvador. I'm hoping the trip goes well, because it would be nice to have another playground close to home. I'll write a trip report when I return and let you know how it goes.

Maybe the casas, which are not well marked, will be easier to find during the day. Since I have early mornings, I don't need or even want to stay out late at night. I am planning on sight seeing during the day then mongering late afternoon or early evening followed by a later dinner. Then I'll be content to relax back at my hotel for the rest of the night.

It will be interesting to see what your experience with the driver is like. I'm seeing some tour companies online where some of the tours I want to do require a minimum of two persons to run.

Keep your wits about you and you will be very safe stay out of obvious gang neighborhoods which will be easy to do. You really would have to know where to go to find them. You will be fine.

My advice is go to lips even if for an hour its an experience. Also, try Kairos later at night. There are a lot of other places I could direct you to go but, those are two that you can not possibly be disapointed visiting. Guaranteed fun time.

I know a lot of people on this board like Kiss Fresh. Its really not for me. It seems there are Kiss Fresh's in every country. Its really not anything special that you wouldn't find anywhere else. No disrespect to the people who like it but, if one only goes to Kiss Fresh, Lo oficina, Zou Spa, I think your really missing the best parts of El Salvador. Venture to some of the clubs, or other places meet the girls, they will make you feel like a king and splurge a bit (it won't be much really) get todo la noche. You will be more than satisfied and the girl will love you. El Salvadors most redeeming quality is the friendliness of the people, the welcoming they provide and the warmth of the women. Make sure to experience that some where other than a case or MP

I'll be going there with an open mind, I'm looking forward to having a great time! Thanks again for your advice!

[QUOTE=Exoticspirit;1807716]This would be cool but wouldn't one need to have a pretty good command of Spanish in order to mix and mingle with the non-casa women?[/QUOTE]While it helps to speak it, you will be surprised how far you can get with little or no spanish.

[QUOTE=Mfins;1808123]While it helps to speak it, you will be surprised how far you can get with little or no spanish.[/QUOTE]For the Colombian girls, it's usually forget it if one does not speak much Spanish. So what would be different about the El Salvadorian girls?

My opinion on how much fun you can have w / out speaking Spanish is not good. If you have one of those effervescent personalities then maybe you and her can enjoy yourselves. But in general when you can't communicate it gets ugly fast, a dead end.

Maybe if you're in a club and the chica knows what you want and your drinking and dancing you can sustain that for an hour or two. If you're going out to dinner or just sitting and talking it won't help your cause. It is no fun when you can't talk a beautiful lady sitting next to you. Fucking is a completely different situation that is a lot easier to work w / someone you don't know and can't talk to.

I don't understand what Mfins is referring to when he says clubs, maybe he will elaborate.

As for the casas I mentioned Fresh Kiss is one of the better ones but it is also a little less personal. Still the chicas know how to make you feel comfortable and take care of business.

In a casa you have an opportunity to communicate w / the chica and for the most part it can be short and sweet, then off to the room.

No uncomfortable long stretches of silence not knowing what to say or do. In Colombia where I go the women don't care about your speaking skills and will also make you feel happy and comfortable.

I'm always thankful for a good effort on helping others but it's not a mutual feeling here is it Mfins?
