Medellin Reports

[QUOTE=SouthernOcean;2759219]Did not make it to Angeles spa Thursday. Hooked up with a SW near my hotel in Parque Lleras. This town is great. My question is El Centro. I went to Botero park and enjoyed the scuptures, had a good meal but did not see many hookers. Walked around for a while but must have done something stupid. I can not find the map in Distinguished posts so I am relying on your patience for some help. Where are they. Probably going back to Fase 2 tonight. Some very nice looking talent there.[/QUOTE]Did you walk behind the white church?

[QUOTE=Mtndew704;2759228]Did you walk behind the white church?[/QUOTE]Is the white church visible from the park with all the statues.

[QUOTE=SouthernOcean;2759233]Is the white church visible from the park with all the statues.[/QUOTE]Walk thru the area w the most statues, down the slope towards the entrance of the museum. Then veer left on the paved area, and you will walk in to a busy area with lots of restaurant hustlers, and a chucg on the right (Veracruz). There are lots of girls there near the entrance to the church, then on the street down the side, and the road immediately behnd the church. Loads of short time hotels too. If she's not selling coffee, she's probably selling sex. And some of those are too.

[QUOTE=TalkYes;2759008]... have no problem tipping girls I want attention from. That system makes sense and is consistent with them paying the club to work there. ...[/QUOTE]It is how that club works, you will enjoy yourself more if you pretend you like all the girls asking for tip and get something out of it. You are not likely to have the same problem if you go to the clubs in El Centro.

[QUOTE=Gabacho;2759125]Yes giving away your money for free even if it's 2 mil at a time fucking sucks....[/QUOTE]It's not free. The girl does give something in return.

[QUOTE=Knowledge;2759018]I'm with you. If I can't afford to lose something or have it stolen then I don't want to own it. Life is short.[/QUOTE]It's what is stored in the phone, not the phone itself.

[QUOTE=Nounce;2759278]It's what is stored in the phone, not the phone itself.[/QUOTE]It's actually quite a bit more than that if it's a cell with service from the USA.

As an example I have Verizon and if I lose my phone in Colombia, I have no way of replacing my service with that number in Colombia, where as if you have a Colombian number and it's registered you can get your same number back, if it's registered, but as you mention you will lose all your stored data.

In addition to this, a guy with an American cell will be hosed, and not be able to get text messages, alerts, and two step verification required at times which will be very problematic.

I guard my American cell like I do my Passport.

[QUOTE=Surfer500;2759298]It's actually quite a bit more than that if it's a cell with service from the USA....[/QUOTE]I think you can buy a phone in Colombia and download the eSIM from your US cell provider to restore the number.

[QUOTE=JjBee62;2759220]You're not giving away 2 k. You're exchanging it. Not only are you exchanging it, you're getting a good bargain.

The girl is giving you a chance to see her up close, see how she moves, feel her body and even find out what she smells like. Not only that, you're letting every girl in the club know you're not just there to watch for free. The best looking girls go where the money is. If you're just sitting around pissed off and not spending money, they aren't wasting their time on you.[/QUOTE]Yea in other words your giving away the money for free. I can see their faces and bodies and smell them while talking to them outside the st hotels. If I'm not getting my dick yet then it's not a bargain it's a waste of money. Your not going to win that argument jb2, I respect you but your wrong on this one.

[QUOTE=JjBee62;2759220]Travel throughout Colombia by bus? Fuck that. I can understand being cheap. I can understand being a masochist. I just can't understand taking tortuous bus rides for cheap masochistic thrills. Do you ask the bus driver to call you his ***** whenever you get jerked around by his driving?[/QUOTE]As for traveling by bus I took a vennie (who only had her Venezuelan cedula so she couldn't fly) from medellin to Santa Marta and back by bus. We went thru Caucasia, Monteria, Sincelejo, and Barranquilla in the way there. The bus ride was almost as much fun as Santa Marta was, seeing the landscape with all the mountains covered in banana trees and palms was really cool. Stopping off in little towns like Santa Rosa de LOS Osos to eat and meet and talk to locals was an experience I enjoyed. I've also taken another vennie from Bogota to melgar to enjoy the piscinas and toboganes there. And I have taken solo bus rides between cucuta and bucaramanga and also between Tolima and Cali. I love the sceneries, the mountains, rivers, cliff drop offs, you don't really see all that in a plane. I agree it can be time consuming especially on the 2 lane highways and especially when they're doing construction but it's still fun and especially if you have a chica with you to share the experience. And no I didn't ask the driver to call me his *****, why the disrespect bro?

[QUOTE=Nounce;2759301]I think you can buy a phone in Colombia and download the eSIM from your US cell provider to restore the number.[/QUOTE]Not sure about that, about a year ago I was told by Verizon that you actually needed a physical SIM card from them to do that but maybe the technology has changed.

Regardless, I brought some Verizon SIM cards with me, but perhaps this has changed. What I do know is that a lot of guys who don't have USA phones in Colombia with International service have issues getting text messages and going thru two step verification which is becoming more and more common. Google I believe has recently started implementing it.

But I really don't know much about this except the problems I hear other guys are encountering in Colombia without a USA phone with International service.

Thanks to JustTK for the info.

Is Central by the Botero busy on Sunday during the day?

Thanks.

Was trying for like 3 days to set something up with a girl from photoprepagos. She completely blew me off last night after saying she would be ready at 10 pm and I said message me when you're ready to confirm. Then she has the nerve to act like I'm the one making it diffcult to schedule something so I finally say "olviado, no me interesa".

Met up with a chick from seeking who wanted 500 mil. She looked really hot in her photos, but she was not worth close to 500. I paid for her dinner and taxi both ways. I feel like a chump but not as much as I would have felt if I paid another 500 mil to hook up with her. Went back to my hotel and messaged another girl on seeking. I send her the name of my hotel and a screenshot of the location and she says she will be here at 1 am (it's like 11:45) I say ok and she texts me at 1:15 asking for my address. I ask if she's close and she says "no se donde estas". WTF? A) you're telling me you haven't even called the taxi and you were supposed to be here 15 mintues ago and B) you could easily hide that info from me if you didn't think you were too good to google my hotel. I called her a ***** and said forget it. Fuck these bitches, they have such inflated egos. I'm so over this shit.

[QUOTE=Nounce;2759275]It's not free. The girl does give something in return.[/QUOTE]Bullshit. Sometimes they don't even say thank you.

[QUOTE=Gabacho;2759125]Yes giving away your money for free even if it's 2 mil at a time fucking sucks but hey different strokes for different folks. And comparing medellin to anywhere in the US simply doesn't make any sense, there are many things you can do here that you can't do in the US, it's apples to oranges. And for your information I've been here since August and it already is November, and I didn't do it by making it rain in stupid strip clubs. And I seriously doubt you have had more fun than me, albeit we may have a different definition of what fun is, how many of these strip club girls have you barebacked? How many stay with you for a week straight like a girlfriend? How many have you traveled with thru Colombia to different pueblos by bus? Yea I think we have different definitions of what fun is and I seriously doubt you have had more fun than I have had in Colombia.[/QUOTE]I know some guys are Frugal and some guys are just plain cheap.

But this is just an all time low.

Idk if you're actually Colombian or not.

But if you're a visitor I guarantee your $$ nor your presence will not be missed.

I can only imagine the type of women you're barebacking and fucking.

You fly to another country for their women and then treat them like shit over 40 cents?

Bro in the states you would be kicked out of every strip club head first through the door if you have this type of attitude.

And I assure you, you're not having a better time than me in Colombia.

I've been with real models, porn stars, and top tier girls.

I don't monger anymore as I'm in a relationship with a model so yea I'm good.

But when I read just how disrespectful you are to these strippers. You shouldn't even step into la Isla or any other strip joint for that matter.

Have you had any concerns regarding walking around or otherwise if one take the usual advised precautions?
